And Alonso sees his first Béla Tarr movie. Like us on Facebook, follow our show on Twitter @linoleumcast |
Sun, 8 April 2012
Special guests Grae Drake and Drew Droege join Alonso and Dave on Easter to discuss new movies; this is probably the only podcast you'll hear this week to reference "The Apple," Jodorowsky, "Taradise," Céilne Dion, Guy Maddin, Béla Tarr and "Josie and the Pussycats." P.S. The audio levels are all over the place. Sorry. |

"21 Jump Street," "Jeff, Who Lives at Home," "Casa de Mi Padre," "The Kid with a Bike," "Natural Selection"

Mon, 27 February 2012
Dave and Alonso want everyone to start behaving themselves in movie theaters, even though that seems to be a totally lost cause. They also have plenty to say about the forward momentum of Tyler Perry as a director and are much less interested in rehashing this year's Oscar show. |
Sun, 19 February 2012
"Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance," "This Means War," "The Secret World of Arrietty," "Michael," "Bullhead"

Wed, 25 January 2012
Alonso's back from Park City, so this slightly tardy episode features his favorite films from the Sundance Film Festival, along with Dave's pick of good and bad action movies with female leads, and a documentary that's almost entirely about breasteses. |
Sun, 15 January 2012
Dave and Alonso are rendered almost speechless by the cruddiness of most of this week's movies, all the better to leave time to talk about lady doctors, Swinging London, and the intricacies of the "Petticoat Junction" theme song. |
Sun, 8 January 2012
Dave and Alonso took a few weeks off, what with the holidays and their cars getting blown up by the LA Arsonist. So now they return with quick reviews of about a dozen movies plus tales of true crime. |
