E

On the 41st episode of Piecing It Together co-host Chad Clinton Freeman and I discuss the newest entry in the DC Extended Universe, Aquaman. While DC has had a bit of trouble finding its footing in trying to battle Marvel for comic-book movie geek dominance, its films are not without their fans (Chad for example). Well they've got a new one thanks to Aquaman. And his name is Me!

E

On the 40th episode (FORTY EPISODES!) of Piecing It Together, returning co-host Ryan Daugherty and I discuss the amazing success that is Marvel's newest Spider-Man movie, Into The Spiderverse. A one-off animated film that doesn't tie into the other movies in the franchise (but does reference them in hilarious and wonderful ways), this movie is fan-service done right.

On this Special Episode of Piecing It Together, I repost a guest appearance I recently did on the Set Lusting Bruce Podcast. Set Lusting Bruce is a podcast all about Bruce Springsteen.

On the 38th episode of Piecing It Together, returning co-host Kris Krainock and I get into what was apparently Steve McQueen's life-long passion project, the female heist thriller Widows. Written by Gillian Flynn and featuring buzz-worthy performances from Viola Davis and Daniel Kaaluya, Widows has not disappointed many in the film community. But it disappointed us.

I come at this episode as a complete beginner to the Harry Potter Wizarding World, but while Chad has only recently dived into this universe, he actually helped put on a giant festival around the fandom called Ironton Wizardfest, so he was uniquely positioned to talk about this one.

Ep 36Bohemian Rhapsody (Featuring Luella Chavez)

E

On the 36th episode of Piecing It Together, new co-host Luella Chavez of the Vegas Playground podcast joins us to discuss Bohemian Rhapsody, the controversial biopic of Queen front-man Freddy Mercury. Despite huge box-office success, the movie has been maligned by bad reviews since its release with critics generally praising Rami Malek's performance as the late singer, but trashing the rest of the film... Luella and I liked it like general audiences did... Even if we recognize the film's many flaws. Puzzle pieces include Rock Star, Love & Mercy, The Wolf of Wall Street and Wayne's World.As always, SPOILER ALERT for Bohemian Rhapsody (and any other movies we discussed)!https://www.foxmovies.com/movies/bohemian-rhapsodyLuella Chavez is an actress and hosts the Vegas Playground PodcastCheck out Vegas Playground at http://vegasplaygroundwithluellachavez.libsyn.com/And follow Luella Chavez on Twitter @LuellaChavezMy new album, A Different Kind Of Dream is available NOW on iTunes and all other digital music stores!

Ep 35mid90s (Featuring Kris Krainock)

E

On the 35th episode of Piecing It Together, returning co-host Kris Krainock and I discuss a24’s mid90s, the directorial debut from Jonah Hill. mid90s is a slice of life... 1990's skateboarder life to be precise. With virtually no known actors except Lucas Hedges, it shows the life of a young kid as he tries to make friends with a bunch of skaters. The authenticity on screen is somewhat of a nostalgia overload, but Jonah Hill does an amazing job of balancing it into a touching, funny film. Puzzle pieces include Kids, Clerks, Barry Lyndon and the NES Classic.As always, SPOILER ALERT for mid90s (and any other movies we discussed)!http://mid90s.movie/Kris Krainock is a filmmaker and film fan who hosts Cinemondays, a weekly film event here in Las Vegas.

E

On this Special Episode of Piecing It Together, we follow-up Episode 18's In Memory Of with an interview with the film's writer/director Eric Stanze. In Memory Of is a wild independent film and was brought to me by Chad Clinton Freeman, who knows his stuff when it comes to these kinds of crazy, unique movies, so I was really glad that we got to cover it on the show. It's been a long while since Episode 18 but I've always wanted to go back and talk to Eric Stanze about the puzzle pieces Chad and I discussed and I'm glad to finally get a chance to do it.As always, SPOILER ALERT for In Memory Of and all the movies we discuss.http://wickedpixel.com/films/in-memory-of/My new album, A Different Kind Of Dream is available NOW on iTunes and all other digital music stores!

On the 3rd episode of the special episode series called Breaking It Apart, co-host Chad Clinton Freeman and I discuss the 1931 classic Frankenstein! This film and its creature have not only influenced hundreds of films, but pop culture in general. The hardest part of this episode was narrowing down all the movies we had to choose from!

Ep 29Mandy (Featuring David Quinones)

E

On the 29th episode of Piecing It Together, returning co-host David Quinones and I discuss Mandy... A movie that promises the craziest Nicolas Cage performance you've ever seen, and actually pretty much delivers (well to be fair he's got a TON of crazy performances to choose from so lets just say it lives up to his legacy). At its core it's a revenge film about a man who goes after a religious cult after they murder his wife, but it's much more than that and one of the most unique films to come along in a while. Puzzle pieces include Army of Darkness, The Wall, Tommy and Heavy Metal album covers.As always, SPOILER ALERT for Mandy (and any other movies we discussed)!https://legionm.com/mandy/Also, be sure to join the #MandyChallenge by doing your best impression of the Nicolas Cage screaming while in his tidy whities scene from Mandy like we did!https://www.facebook.com/piecingpod/videos/316668705793839/https://www.facebook.com/sharmandra/videos/10217384973514705/ David Quinones is a writer, reporter, podcaster and my best friend.

The Beast originally screened at film festivals under the name Rabbit Days before picking up distribution and getting the name change. It's a crazy, mind-trip of a movie about a play director who lures some guests to his home with the promise of great opportunity, but what they find when they arrive goes from weird to bad to much worse. Puzzle pieces include The House on Haunted Hill, The Invitation, Mullholand Drive and Waiting For Guffman.As always, SPOILER ALERT for The Beast and all the movies we discuss.https://www.amazon.com/Beast-Clarence-Gilyard-Jr/dp/B07GH8236K/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1536278819&sr=8-1&keywords=the+beast+movieJosh Bell is a film critic whose work has been seen in the Las Vegas Weekly, Film Racket and more.

Ep 2Breaking It Apart 2 – 2001 A Space Odyssey

E

On the 2nd episode of the special episode series called Breaking It Apart, co-host Kris Krainock and I take a look NOT at a new movie and what movies inspired it, but at a classic movie and what movies were inspired BY it… And this time we're looking at the classic Stanley Kubrick feature 2001: A Space Odyssey. Somehow depicting outer space before we even made it out there, and with some of the most breathtaking visuals ever put to film, 2001 recently had an IMAX re-release which really let the amazingly unique and trippy views of outer space and wormholes shine. Narrowing down the influences on this one were especially difficult as the film clearly laid the groundwork for all of sci-fi from when it was released in 1968 to today. Puzzle pieces include Star Wars, The Tree of Life, Adaptation and The Simpsons.And for those keeping track of the Piecing It Together Podcast, just know that special series and episodes like this will continue to be a part of the future of the show, and we’ll continue figuring out the best way to brand them and tie them in to the overall puzzle theme as we continue doing them. While some special episodes will be a once in a while thing, Breaking It Apart will be a regular occurrence with its own numbering.As always, SPOILER ALERT for 2001: A Space Odyssey (and any other movies we discussed)!2001: A Space Odyssey recently had an IMAX re-release which is now over in most markets, but you can still check the website to see if some cities still have it playing: https://www.imax.com/News/2001-A-Space-Odyssey-in-IMAXKris Krainock is a filmmaker and film fan who hosts Cinemondays, a weekly film event here in Las Vegas.
