Flyover Film Country

Here who comes? It'd be nice if the title of the movie told us who was coming. Clearly it's in first person so it's spoken direclty from the perspective of the person saying it. So THAT person is coming, but we don't know who THAT person is. What am I supposed to do with this information? Because also, consider this: it doesn't matter if I'm ready or not. We started with that. Ready or not? Doesn't matter, obviously. So SOME person is coming but we don't know WHO it is and it doesn't matter if we're ready or not. Huh. Walker and Olivia talk about this movie, though.

Amaze, amaze, amaze. Welcome to Walker, Olivia, and Walter glazing this movie for about an hour.

Reminders of Him is the newest film adaptation of a Colleen Hoover novel, aaaaaand we didn’t love it. Tune in to hear our thoughts, to see Walker drink a whole bottle of Jameson, and to get a better understanding of the inner mechanisms of our brains.

Once again revisiting a classic, the crew takes a close look at Blazing Saddles! This episode is rich with high-brow analysis, mind-bending cinematic lore, and a brutal critique of modern politics.None of the above is true. Maybe you should just turn your brain off sometimes and laugh at a stupid movie.

Featuring a special guest, Zac Walthall, the team gets together to discuss the modern classic animated film, the Lego Movie! It's no Lego Batman, but it will do. Also, is everyone else tired of Chris Pratt yet?

No, we're not telling you how to make a killing! We're just talking about the movie that has that name!!!This is what happens when you let Walter write the episode descriptions.

Welcome to another Walker and Olivia Special where we cover The Silence of the Lambs! The 1991 film is celebrating its 35th anniversary this year, and we cannot express how much we love this film. We basically just glaze this movie for an hour and talk about the powerhouse performances from Anthony Hopkins, Jodie Foster, and Ted Levine.

Joined by a VERY special guest, the Flyover crew tackles Season 2 of the hit video game-turned Amazon Prime series, Fallout. While Walter didn't have time to talk about his celebrity crush on Ella Purnell, they did wax poetic about the connections to the games, soy faced over the plethora of fan service, and how the writers still managed to make this vast and complex world approachable to anyone who's never even played the games.

Send Help! Walker and Isaac join forces for their first outing in a crash landing deep dive into San Raimi’s latest (and, spoiler, greatest??) film. The two dissect the powerful chemistry and dynamic of Dylan O’Brien and Rachel McAdams, the wild swings, and the incredible gross out, laugh-out-loud scenes. One involves a boar. Tune in to hear more!

Do you love alien films? We love ‘em. We LOVE ‘EM. Super 8 is a pre-Stranger Things, Spielberg-inspired, 80s-set monster movie hearkening back to an era where kids rode bikes everywhere without fear of death. Directed by J.J. Abram’s between his first and second Star Trek films, this movie is a lot of fun but doesn’t make a lot of sense? We had a great time discussing several of the child actor performances, particularly a young Elle Fanning. Tune in for more!!

We usually do this off-mic, but we thought it would be fun to bring along our faithful listeners to plan every SINGLE episode for this year, including new theatrical releases, revisiting older films, and everything in between.

Flyover Film Country is back - this time with our top 5 films of 2025! It was a great year for movies, and we’re excited to look back on the highlights together. It was such a good year that Walter actually saw 5 movies! We also reflect on adding an awesome new co-host, and against many protests, Isaac managed to squeeze in a list of honorable and dishonorable mentions and random thoughts about other movies from the year.
