Episode 52: Hereditary

October 08, 2018 07:00 - 32 minutes - 33.8 MB

Horror Month is back on the In Reel Deep Podcast! To get things started, we're discussing 2018 horror gem Hereditary, a perpetually unsettling film that was called "a tragedy that curdles into a nightmare" by its writer-director Ari Aster. Though lacking in jump scares, this one will make you truly uncomfortable throughout. Oh yeah, and it features probably the most grisly child death in cinematic history. The spookiest month of the year is finally here. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/priva...

Episode 51: Celebrating Five Years of In Reel Deep

August 23, 2018 07:00 - 51 minutes - 53.2 MB

To celebrate In Reel Deep's kinda sorta five-year anniversary, we're revisiting a handful of recent movies we can't stop thinking about. From Creed, Brooklyn, and Nightcrawler to Moonlight, Her, and Dunkirk, these films may not have won all the awards upon release but they've absolutely stood the test of (a short amount of) time. And, of course, we can't help but also yell about a few stinkers that we remember for the wrong reasons. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Episode 50: The Academy Award for Best Popular Film

August 09, 2018 04:00 - 33 minutes - 34.5 MB

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences just announced a new award for Outstanding Achievement in Popular Film, and everyone online is losing their minds. Is the outrage justified? How will this new award impact comic book, horror, and even animated movies? And is the Academy fixing a problem that isn't even broken? An emergency episode of the In Reel Deep Podcast has been convened; join us as we rant about the Oscars in August, which is breaking new ground even for us. Hosted on Ac...

Episode 49: Disney, Netflix, MoviePass, and the Future of Film

June 05, 2018 07:00 - 45 minutes - 47.4 MB

With Disney properties like Star Wars and the Marvel Cinematic Universe dominating at the box office, and with Netflix and Amazon gobbling up smaller movies left and right, the film industry is changing before our eyes. But for better or for worse? That's the subject of Andrew's latest longform piece, and of our latest podcast. We discuss the rise (and eventual fall) of MoviePass, the ho-hum response to Solo, and what a blockbusters-only theater experience might look like. Hosted on Acast. ...

And Justice for Al: Paterno

April 14, 2018 07:00 - 36 minutes - 50.5 MB

The role of Joe Paterno might be Al Pacino's biggest in years, which means it's time for And Justice for Al. The three of us reconvene for a special Paterno episode, where we examine Barry Levinson's biopic and marvel at Al's ability to slip back into the understated style he once mastered. Is Paterno a worthy successor to HBO's other "story of an old white guy" films like Phil Spector and You Don't Know Jack? And could this be the beginning of one more great run for Pacino? As always, we're ...

And Justice for Al: The Recruit

April 06, 2018 07:00 - 44 minutes - 61.3 MB

The only Al Pacino-centric podcast on the Internet welcomes its first very special guest to discuss the 2003 spy thriller The Recruit. It's Pacino on the decline and Colin Farrell on the rise, for sure, but it's also a surprisingly understated Al performance in the aftermath of 9/11. Our special guest adds some academic gravitas to the proceedings as we discuss Al's role as Walter Burke and what makes the great Pacino tick. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Episode 48: 2018 Oscar Nominations and Predictions

February 15, 2018 08:00 - 1 hour - 87.9 MB

With the 90th Academy Awards right around the corner, it's time for the In Reel Deep Podcast to examine all of 2018's snubs and flubs. What will win Best Picture: Dunkirk, The Shape of Water, or Three Billboards? Big questions like that and smaller questions like "What in the world is going on with Best Adapted Screenplay?" will all be answered as Andrew and Steve go through the screenplay, directing, and acting nominations to determine the best of the bunch. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/...

Episode 46: Star Wars: The Last Jedi

January 10, 2018 08:00 - 40 minutes - 55 MB

Is Star Wars: The Last Jedi the best Star Wars movie since The Empire Strikes Back? Is it the worst? All we know for sure is that it's the franchise's most divisive movie ever, and it's sparking debate among Skywalker and Solo fans everywhere. Have the In Reel Deep guys bought into the hype? Do they think Rian Johnson's entry in the saga is a stud or a dud? Join us as we dissect all things Episode VIII. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Episode 45: National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation

December 25, 2017 08:00 - 46 minutes - 42.4 MB

Merry Christmas! The boys brave the elements to bring Christmas Month to a close with National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, the beloved 1989 holiday comedy that has become a seasonal classic. Everyone remembers Chevy Chase's peak performance as Xmas-loving Clark Griswold, the "last true family man," but where does the movie as a whole rank on the Christmas scale of excellence? And is it beloved by our special guest, yuletide enthusiast Sam Johnson? Grab some 'nog and join us as we send the h...

Episode 44: Love Actually

December 18, 2017 08:00 - 48 minutes - 50 MB

Love Actually is considered a beloved holiday classic, but is it even a Christmas movie? And, more importantly, is it actually god awful? It's still Christmas Month and our special guest Sam Johnson is still with us to pick apart this 2003 romantic comedy, one that sparked a half-dozen other holiday-themed films with star-studded casts of their own. We talk about the joys of Bill Nighy and Emma Thompson, the utter waste of Laura Linney, and if everyone misremembers this movie as good. Join us...

Episode 43: Arthur Christmas

December 11, 2017 08:00 - 53 minutes - 73.2 MB

Christmas Month continues on the In Reel Deep Podcast with Arthur Christmas, the unfortunately titled 2011 animated Christmas comedy that somehow made $147 million and was barely heard from again. Our Christmas movie expert loves Arthur Christmas with all his heart, though; we break down where it sits in the Christmas rankings, why it needed a signature song, and how this movie might help kids better understand Santa Claus. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Episode 42: The True Meaning of Christmas Movies

December 04, 2017 08:00 - 41 minutes - 57.4 MB

On the heels of Horror Month, the In Reel Deep Podcast's buildup to Halloween, we're back with Christmas Month! This will be a look at all things Christmas movies; it starts with the introduction of our guest, Andrew's brother Sam Johnson. Sam is a Christmas fanatic, and he goes into excruciating detail on what makes a great Christmas movie, along with choosing the three movies we'll be watching throughout December. Join us, won't you, for this overview of Christmas movies and our march into ...

Episode 41: It Follows

October 30, 2017 07:00 - 40 minutes - 56 MB

October is just about over, which means the end of Horror Month on the In Reel Deep Podcast. But before we go, we're talking about the 2014 supernatural horror film It Follows, one of the genre's most acclaimed recent gems. With a no-name cast and a brilliant conceit, it nods to decades of horror classics without winking at its audience; it also makes slowly plodding, murderous creatures scary again. Join us, won't you, for the rare horror movie that encourages its characters to have more sex...

Episode 40: The Thing

October 23, 2017 07:00 - 33 minutes - 45.4 MB

"Mac wants the flamethrower!" Very rarely does a quote sum up a movie quite like that line and The Thing, John Carpenter's 1982 science-fiction/horror classic. You've got bearded Kurt Russell with beautiful flowing hair; you've got Keith David, Wilford Brimley, and a terrific cast of character actors; and you've got a gore-filled, paranoia-centric monster story that still holds up today. For our latest entry in Horror Month, we travel to Antarctica with MacReady and prepare for battle with a ...

Episode 39: Rosemary's Baby

October 16, 2017 07:00 - 31 minutes - 43.4 MB

Horror Month continues on the In Reel Deep Podcast with Rosemary's Baby, the 1968 psychological horror classic from writer/director Roman Polanski. At almost 50 years old, it's horror from what feels like another world, before big scares and gore became a necessity. Mia Farrow's brilliant performance as pregnant housewife Rosemary conveys all the dread you need, yet you can also see how future directors added some blood and some makeup to its methodical build to craft their own cinematic gems...

Episode 38: Intro to Horror

October 09, 2017 07:00 - 35 minutes - 48.3 MB

Welcome to Horror Month on the In Reel Deep Podcast! Every Monday in October, we'll be dropping new episodes that break down horror classics from three different eras. But before we get too deep into specifics, Andrew and Steve are here to discuss their horror backgrounds and where they stand on this extremely popular genre. What makes a horror movie? What are their favorite horror movies? And what makes this one of the more flexible, versatile movie classifications out there? This is Intro t...

And Justice for Al: ...And Justice for All

October 05, 2017 07:00 - 36 minutes - 49.9 MB

We've finally made it to this podcast's namesake: the 1979 courtroom drama ...And Justice for All. It earned Al Pacino an Oscar nomination and made "You're out of order!" one of the more famous movie quotes of all time; it's also a film that feels very much of the late 1970s yet focuses on progressive themes along the way. Transgender rights, wrongful imprisonment, the inequities of the criminal justice system: Pacino's Arthur Kirkland tackles them all, when he's not dodging plates or flying ...

Episode 37: Sully and The Accountant

September 07, 2017 07:00 - 33 minutes - 45.8 MB

Let the In Reel Deep Podcast take you back to the glory days of September and October of 2016, when directors Clint Eastwood and Gavin O'Connor brought us Sully and The Accountant, respectively. Why are we revisiting a Tom Hanks pilot biopic and Ben Affleck's autistic math whiz/killing machine? Because we love slightly bad, slightly good movies, and it doesn't get more bad/good than these two. So join us, friends, as we talk Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger and Christian Wolff until we're blue in...

Episode 36: Casablanca

July 21, 2017 07:00 - 47 minutes - 65.2 MB

Casablanca is widely regarded as one of the best films of all time. One of our hosts has seen it; the other has not. So of course Andrew and Steve decided to do a before-and-after podcast, sharing pre- and post-viewing thoughts on Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, Claude Rains, and a smorgasbord of quotable lines that make both committed fans and newcomers squeal with delight. Welcome to World War II-era Morocco. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Episode 35: Alien: Covenant

May 22, 2017 07:00 - 45 minutes - 63.1 MB

Alien: Covenant or Prometheus 2? Ridley Scott is back with what's essentially a sequel to his polarizing 2012 Alien semi-prequel; if you think that's confusing, wait until you see the movie. Steve welcomes a special guest and Alien lover to the podcast to chat about Michael Fassbender's dual performance, Scott's uneven filmography and late-career recommitment to the Alien cinematic universe, and if anyone out there actually wants all this Xenomorph backstory. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/...

Episode 34: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

May 15, 2017 07:00 - 43 minutes - 60.1 MB

The world embraced Guardians of the Galaxy more than any other Marvel movie not named The Avengers; how does everyone feel about Vol. 2? Steve brings on famed television producer Walt Schwenk as a special guest to examine where this space adventure ranks among the Marvel Cinematic Universe pantheon, and if Chris Pratt, Dave Bautista, Zoe Saldana and company have succeeded in recapturing the magic of the original. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Episode 33: The Fate of the Furious

April 24, 2017 07:00 - 37 minutes - 51.1 MB

The eighth entry in the Fast & Furious franchise is here, and the In Reel Deep Podcast is back to cover it in detail. To celebrate and analyze every bicep and explosion that The Fate of the Furious offers up, superfan Holc has returned to provide his expert opinion on Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's giant muscles, Jason Statham's magnetic charm, the movie's deep stable of ass-kicking bald men, and whether Vin Diesel remains fully invested in the Furious franchise he's built. The theme music fo...

Episode 32: Oscar Night and the Best of 2016

March 01, 2017 08:00 - 40 minutes - 56.1 MB

The stars were out at the 2017 Academy Awards, though it'll likely only be remembered for Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway flubbing the Best Picture announcement live on stage. But the other eight hundred hours of Oscar featured deserving winners galore; Andrew and Steve run through all the recipients, including new foes La La Land and Moonlight, before getting to their best of 2016 recap. Did one of the beloved 2017 Oscar favorites also win In Reel Deep's Best Movie of 2016? Find out on this g...

And Justice for Al: Any Given Sunday

February 03, 2017 08:00 - 38 minutes - 52.9 MB

Just in time for Super Bowl 51, the Internet's finest Al Pacino podcast revisits the football opus Any Given Sunday. Oliver Stone's frenetic ode to the pigskin features perhaps the most famous Pacino monologue of all time; it also offers a bevy of naked ladies, drug use, and a car being chopped in half via chainsaw. And tucked away, surprisingly, are progressive comments on football culture that remain relevant 18 years later. So strap on the pads, do a line in the bathroom with Lawrence Tayl...

Episode 31: 2017 Oscar Nominations

January 27, 2017 08:00 - 1 hour - 86.3 MB

Nominations for the 89th Academy Awards have been announced, and movie fans everywhere have already started debating about who's going to win on February 26.

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Episode 30: La La Land

January 11, 2017 08:00 - 43 minutes - 59.1 MB

Damien Chazelle blew audiences away with Whiplash, but can he really rejuvenate the musical? According to Andrew and Steve, the answer is a resounding yes. On this episode of the In Reel Deep Podcast, we examine the picture-perfect chemistry between Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone, along with Chazelle's terrific technical work and Justin Hurwitz's score, that brought La La Land a ton of Golden Globes and perhaps just as many Oscars to come. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more inform...

And Justice for Al: Mr. Pacino Goes to Washington

December 27, 2016 08:00 - 23 minutes - 32.5 MB

Only the finest contributors to American culture receive the Kennedy Center Honors, which is why it's no surprise that Al Pacino was (finally) honored in 2016. To celebrate this special occasion, and to pore over the accompanying Washington Post profile, Andrew and Steve convene a special episode of And Justice for Al to delve into Mr. Pacino's career on the cusp of his visit to Washington, DC. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Episode 29: Christmas with the Home Alone Franchise

December 21, 2016 08:00 - 44 minutes - 61.3 MB

"Kevin!" "Look what ya did, ya little jerk." "I'm gonna kill that kid!" The exclamations from Home Alone and Home Alone 2: Lost in New York are quite memorable, but what exactly powered these two movies to become Christmas sensations for an entire generation? And how weird is it to see Joe Pesci in a holiday movie for kids? On a special holiday episode of the In Reel Deep Podcast, Andrew and Steve follow Kevin McCallister, Harry, Marv, Uncle Frank, and the rest of the gang on an adventure ...

And Justice for Al: The Devil's Advocate

December 13, 2016 08:00 - 44 minutes - 60.6 MB

"I'm a fan of man!" Fans of Al Pacino's more showy roles regard The Devil's Advocate as a wildly entertaining gem with several fantastic Pacino monologues. For others, it's an bombastic, overacted mess that exposes all worst elements of Al. What does the In Reel Deep team think? The latest episode of And Justice for Al dives into Taylor Hackford's 1997 drama, including skewering Keanu Reeves, comparing Craig T. Nelson to Donald Trump, and wondering how a movie like this made over $150 million...

Episode 28: Arrival

November 22, 2016 15:00 - 35 minutes - 48.2 MB

Every year seems to offer its own 'smart' science-fiction movie: Gravity, Interstellar, The Martian, and now Arrival. But does Denis Villeneuve's pre-Blade Runner foray into sci-fi shine like those Oscar-nominated blockbusters? Or does a terrific Amy Adams performance and a top-notch Jóhann Jóhannsson score cover up some serious character and story flaws? You don't have to understand Heptapod to enjoy this latest episode of the In Reel Deep Podcast! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy fo...

Episode 27: Moonlight and the 2016 Election

November 16, 2016 17:00 - 35 minutes - 49.1 MB

Barry Jenkins's Moonlight has been wowing critics across the country with its beautiful, poignant depiction of what it's like to grow up black, poor, and gay in Miami. And with the election of Donald Trump, it's taken on a whole new meaning for those trying to find their place in an oft-hateful world. We break down Moonlight's Oscar chances and the power of truly brilliant filmmaking in the latest episode of the In Reel Deep Podcast. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more informati...

And Justice for Al: Heat

October 19, 2016 07:00 - 37 minutes - 52.1 MB

It's finally here: Al Pacino versus Robert De Niro, squaring off in Michael Mann's renowned crime drama Heat. But is Pacino's insanely quotable performance as Lt. Vincent Hanna good, or just another example of Al's descent into bombastic screaming? And what happens when Pacino is clearly upstaged by his long-time rival De Niro? We examine every inch of Heat on the latest episode of the Internet's best (and maybe only) Al Pacino podcast! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more inform...

Episode 26: Stranger Things

September 14, 2016 07:00 - 29 minutes - 40.2 MB

Netflix's Stranger Things is perhaps the entertainment of the summer; from Winona Ryder's resurgence to how it borrows so genuinely from Steven Spielberg and Stephen King, it's classic storytelling done right. What it also does is blur the line between cinema and television; in five years, will it matter what's streaming and what's in theaters? That's the question we attempt to answer on this episode of the In Reel Deep Podcast, as we examine what the Duffer Brothers hath brought us. Hosted...

Episode 25: Suicide Squad

August 08, 2016 07:00 - 44 minutes - 61.7 MB

After months of hype, Suicide Squad has hit theaters. And, unfortunately, it's a bit of a trainwreck. What's wrong with the DC Extended Universe? How can a villain team-up starring Will Smith and Margot Robbie be such a letdown? Is Jared Leto's Joker really that bad? And how does this impact the upcoming Wonder Woman and Justice League? Steve sits down with a DC movie mega fan (yes, one actually exists) to examine every inch of what went sour with David Ayer's supposed "Dirty Dozen with super...

Bonus! And Justice for Al: Gigli

July 28, 2016 07:00 - 33 minutes - 46.3 MB

Some call Gigli the worst movie ever, and they may be right. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez as mobster maybe-lovers, The Hangover's Justin Bartha as a mentally challenged hip-hop fan...yeesh. But you know who nearly saves it? The one and only Al Pacino. On this special b-b-b-bonus (and Andrew-less) episode of And Justice for Al, Steve and his baby brother Chris (Pacino lovers, both of them) suffer through Martin Brest's final movie and rave about Alfredo Pacino's 15-minute tour de force cameo.

And Justice for Al: Donnie Brasco

July 13, 2016 07:00 - 31 minutes - 43.9 MB

Once upon a time, Johnny Depp played characters other than weirdos in makeup. And Al Pacino's acting was more than vigorous yells. We're taking you back to the magical days of 1997, before The Sopranos changed how mob stories were told. The movie is Donnie Brasco, the podcast is And Justice for Al, and it's time to learn the true meaning of "fuhgettaboutit." Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

And Justice for Al: Danny Collins

June 22, 2016 07:00 - 38 minutes - 52.9 MB

Al Pacino sings. And dances. And does too much cocaine, and hunts for his long-lost son, and attempts to charm Annette Bening via piano tunes. What more could we ask for? On the latest episode of And Justice for Al, the only Pacino-centric podcast on the internet, the In Reel Deep team examines the Golden Globe-nominated Danny Collins and wonders whose bright idea it was to cast the aging Scarface star as a musician. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Episode 24: Captain America: Civil War

May 16, 2016 07:00 - 48 minutes - 66.5 MB

Marvel's latest adventure has hit screens everywhere, and it's a big one. Captain America versus Iron Man, Spider-Man versus Falcon, Ant-Man versus Vision: all your favorites are facing off in Captain America: Civil War. To break it all down, Steve brought a special guest to the In Reel Deep Podcast; they analyze the Marvel Studios plan going forward and compare Civil War to the oft-maligned Batman v Superman. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

And Justice for Al: Scarface

April 18, 2016 07:00 - 39 minutes - 53.7 MB

Even if you haven't seen Scarface, you know Tony Montana. Al Pacino's iconic Cuban gangster has been quoted in hip-hop lyrics and plastered on dorm walls for the last two decades. But is Brian De Palma's movie any good? And what makes Al's performance so divisive? Those sorts of questions can only be answered on And Justice for Al, the best Pacino podcast on the World Wide Web. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

And Justice for Al: The Godfather Part II

March 31, 2016 07:00 - 47 minutes - 65.6 MB

We're back for another round of And Justice for Al, the only Al Pacino-centric podcast on the Internet (that I am aware of). Now it's time for the good stuff: probably Pacino's finest performance, The Godfather Part II. You've all seen it, you all love it; hear Andrew and Steve wax poetic about John Cazale, Francis Ford Coppola, whoever played Merle, and of course, Mr. Pacino himself. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Episode 23: 2016 Oscars Preview

February 26, 2016 10:00 - 53 minutes - 73.2 MB

The 88th Academy Awards are here! Try to hold back your excitement. We all know that Steve and Andrew are ho-hum when it comes to the Oscars, but that didn't stop them from debating Sylvester Stallone, The Revenant, Jóhann Jóhannsson, Adam McKay, and all of the other hot Oscar topics that the film industry forces themselves to buzz about every year. Head to that red carpet; it's awards time, baby. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

And Justice for Al: Glengarry Glen Ross

February 17, 2016 15:04 - 45 minutes - 63 MB

You've loved the In Reel Deep Podcast; now it's time for And Justice for Al, a monthly audio miniseries where the topic is always Al Pacino. Pacino, of course, is one of the most decorated and beloved actors of all time. Steve thinks he's a genius; Andrew is a little on the fence. And a series of guest stars will weigh in with their two cents throughout 2016. We begin our examination of Al's career with a moment where his path split into two roads, and he took the one more traveled: Glengarry...

Episode 22: The Revenant and The Hateful Eight

January 23, 2016 20:51 - 1 hour - 126 MB

Quentin Tarantino and Alejandro González Iñárritu are two very different directors who've captivated audiences for years, but does their work in The Revenant and The Hateful Eight live up to all the hype? The In Reel Deep Podcast tackles that very subject, examining the two Westerns and how stars like Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hardy, Samuel L. Jackson, and Kurt Russell fare in meaty roles.

Episode 21: Star Wars: The Force Awakens

January 04, 2016 02:00 - 43 minutes - 59.1 MB

The Force has awoken! But despite huge box-office returns, has J.J. Abrams truly invigorated the lagging franchise? The In Reel Deep team blast off into Star Wars: The Force Awakens banter, including Adam Driver's sans-mask moments as Kylo Ren, Daisy Ridley's girl-power brilliance, and the non-use of Oscar Isaac's Poe Dameron.

Episode 20: Creed

December 13, 2015 23:33 - 55 minutes - 75.8 MB

With both members of the In Reel Deep team being unabashed Rocky fans, how might they respond to Creed? The two guys tackle everything from the Balboa reboot, including Sylvester Stallone's Oscar chances and how to compare to a 2015 movie to its 1976 predecessor.

Episode 19: Spectre

November 14, 2015 13:00 - 50 minutes - 69.1 MB

Daniel Craig's fourth foray as James Bond might be his last, and unfortunately Spectre wasn't quite the cinematic experience most 007 fans were looking for. A special guest drops by to help Steve figure out just why director Sam Mendes couldn't once again meet the heights of Skyfall, and what the future holds for the storied franchise.

Episode 18: The Martian

October 12, 2015 03:19 - 52 minutes - 72.7 MB

Matt Damon may be stranded on Mars but the In Reel Deep guys are here on Earth, creating that good content you all can't live without. We blast off unanimously into Ridley Scott's The Martian, asking each other if the famed director of Alien lives up to all his hype and also wondering "Why all the space movies these days?"

Episode 17: Film School for Babies

September 21, 2015 19:25 - 58 minutes - 80.2 MB

We're having a baby! Well, not all of us; this future infant belongs to the executive editor of In Reel Deep and his lovely wife. The guys (obviously) use this incoming miracle to start a cinematic discussion, deciding well in advance what G, PG, PG-13 and R-rated movies the young Johnson heir should see first. Film school for babies is now in session.

Episode 16: Summer of Hader

August 04, 2015 14:15 - 53 minutes - 73.4 MB

Inside Out and Trainwreck were two terrific summer movies; what do they have in common? Bill Hader, of course! The In Reel Deep guys address the "summer of Hader" and chat about Pixar's latest opus and Judd Apatow's inability to trim his movies to a reasonable length.
