This week on The Pod Charles Cinecast, presented by The Prince Charles Cinema, our hosts Jonathan Foster and Fil Freitas begin the tasks of tackling one of the greatest trilogies of all-time – a collection of films that always show at The PCC, that we have somehow never talked about – Peter Jackson's THE LORD OF THE RINGS TRILOGY!

Join us, as over the next few months, we'll dive into each film from the trilogy adapted from J.R.R. Tolkien's high-fantasy novel series, kicking off first with THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING. This will be our first two-parter episode, as this week we will dive into the history of the series, it's prior attempts at getting made, and how Peter Jackson got the series off the ground. We'll be back next week with Part 2, as we dive deeper into this film. The following two films will be single episodes released on a monthly basis.

So grab your precious and come listen to us talk about people walking for a very long time...

This week on The Pod Charles Cinecast, presented by The Prince Charles Cinema, our hosts Jonathan Foster and Fil Freitas present a little bonus episode, and are joined by long-time cinema staff member, filmmaker, and returning guest, Ed Mannion!

Join us, as we chat about Ed's upcoming new film THE HEDGE, and George Miller's return to the Mad Max world with the Fury Road spin-off film, FURIOSA: A MAD MAX SAGA. We dive into all the bits we loved, question if Chris Hemsworth and Anya Taylor-Joy are big enough stars to get people to come see them, and why this film was a box office bomb. Also, who knows, maybe we even spitball ideas for a sequel to Tommy Wisea's THE ROOM...

There was more to Billy Bob Thornton's phobias than we could even imagine. The man is a freak, who believes that mythical dragons existed, and are still roaming the world in the form of the Komodo dragon. When he's not looking over his shoulders, fearing that today just might be the day that a Komodo dragon attacks, he is probably going to be found watching his favourite TV show, My Little Pony. The man is a confirmed Brony. But let's just hope that's not all he's doing in his spare time...

In this bonus edition of The Pod Charles Cinecast, your hosts Jonathan Foster and Fil Freitas get into some monkey madness, as they talk about two big blockbusters involving lots and lots of apes!

First up, Jonathan unveils his beef with the latest GODZILLA x KONG movie. Then, we get into a film series near and dear to Fil's heart, as we chat KINGDOM OF THE PLANET OF THE APES. We dive into the highs and the lows of the film, the greater franchise as a whole, and what we could see from future instalments.

Of course, as with most of these episodes about new films, we start complaining about the state of Hollywood and how we are stuck in sequel, reboot, prequel, legacy sequel hell. But, what are you gonna do? Hollywood gives you big ape movies. You go see them!

"Are you familiar with the concept of evolution? In their time, humans were capable of many great things. They could fly, like eagles fly. They could speak across oceans. But now, it is our time... and it is my kingdom. We will learn. Apes will learn. I will learn. And I... will conquer."

This week on The Pod Charles Cinecast, it's the final episode of the monthly miniseries – BROTHERLY LOVE – where we have been pitting some films from filmmaking brothers the Coen Brothers vs. the Farrelly Brothers. We skip ahead to the year 2003 for the final bout, where the Coen Brothers took a crack at directing a writer-for-hire script, the rom-com INTOLERABLE CRUELTY, and the Farrelly Brothers got stuck on brotherhood with the conjoined twin comedy STUCK ON YOU.

With Intolerable Cruelty the Coens teamed back up with George Clooney, who plays hot shot divorce attorney Miles Massey. Massey is known for his patented pre-nuptial agreement, that is known to be impenetrable. After assisting a cheating husband, millionaire Rex Rexroth (Edward Herrmann), in preventing his wife Marilynn (Catherine Zeta Jones) from getting any of her husband's wealth in their divorce, Miles finds himself a victim of a sophisticated revenge plot orchestrated by Marilynn. The only problem is, Miles falls for Marilynn, clouding his vision, and opening him up to her wrath. It's not quite the cutting film that we're used to from the Coens, but it has some sweet moments, great chemistry from the leads, and some really great and shocking moments. Is it enough to take down the Farrellys?

It's a tough order this month, as the Farrellys churned out one of their low-key best films in 2003 with Stuck On You. Matt Damon and Greg Kinnear star as conjoined twins Bob and Walt Tenor, who live in Martha's Vineyard. Bob is into sports and loves the simple life of cooking food at their restaurant in Massachusetts. Walt on the other hand is hoping to become a big time actor. The brothers venture out to Hollywood to allow Walt a chance at fame, when they are discovered by Cher (you know, Cher), who casts Walt to be the co-star in her new TV show – hoping that the network will pull the plug on the show. However, Walt turns out to be a huge hit, causing the brothers to consider their future stuck together. The film is riddled with cameos, such as Meryl Streep, Jack Nicholson, Cameron Diaz, Luke Wilson Frankie Muniz and even JESSE VENTURA!!! You may think we are joking when saying it's one of their best films, but this truly is a sweet, funny, and underrated film from the Farrellys. Give it a go if you don't believe us.

We're back to pondering what the alien agenda really is, and it appears we may be closer to cracking the code. According to Whitley Strieber, they appear to just be looking out for our health; making sure we aren't eating too many chocolates and getting the diabetes. Now that chocolate is off the menu, how will we fill the massive void in our hearts and stomachs? Just when you think we're down for the count, we hear there is a new M. Night Shyamalan trailer making the rounds...
