Best Film Ever Movie Podcast

(Deep Dive begins at 47:30)
Would you believe that someone else is to blame for the runtime on a Hermes episode?  Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcaster, Ian & Liam (Georgia, Ethan, and Megan have all won fellowships) as we're the keymaster at a Seattle house party while trying to pick-up the brainiac in the Cameron Crowe/John Cusack film Say Anything. We're joined by very special guest,  BFF of the BFE: Hermes Auslander, and we're disussing kickboxing form in our 222nd episode as we discuss: 
What is the proper way to throw a kick at a heavy bag?
We continue to hear the modem sound when Liam tries to access our back catalogue
Ian shares a story of his one academic shortcoming growing up
Hermes continues his one man revolution against the Gif of the Week game
Ian postulates that this film isn't about Lloyd Dobler at all
Ian tries to explain to Liam that he can't keep track of which episodes other people have missed
The trappings of large sized products when we'd probably be satisfied with a medium sampling
We share a story about spicy food and Meg's lack of concern when dishing out sampling
Whether or not Say Anything is the Best Film Ever

Get your black leathers on, shirts are apparently optional, and let's head out looking for trouble. Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasters, Ian and Liam (Georgia, Megs, and Ethan are chasing down rogue drivers) as we're heading to Australia in the not too distant future in the Mel Gibson film, Mad Max.  We are the nightrider in our 221st episode as we discuss:
Whether a simple story is necessarily a bad story
We talk about big life events this week
Liam talks an awful lot about films we're not reviewing this week
We discuss the Guinness Record this film had for an awfully long time
Liam shares an origin story for Mel Gibson's career that, if true, is amazing
What is it with the religious imagery for all of 10 minutes in this film?
Whether or not Mad Max (1979) is the Best Film Ever

BEFORE 53:30 is our WrestleMania 40 (Night Two) PREVIEW & PREDICTIONS
AFTER 53:30 you get our WrestleMania 40 (Night Two) FULL REVIEW
You know we love our wrestling here at the BFE (well some of us...). Join Ian from Best Film Ever and Stew from The Stew World Order podcast as we break the BFE format by looking at WrestleMania 40 (Night Two). We discuss whether The Rock is helping or hurting creative? Did WWE promise something they ultimately couldn't deliver on? What exactly is a Bloodline Rules match anyways and did the end result justify the Night One Main Event? We also discuss who has the worst finisher on the WWE roster? We'll answer all these questions on WrestleMania 40 (Night Two) and then we'll compare it to WrestleManias of the past.

BEFORE 1:02:00 is our WrestleMania 40 (Night One) PREVIEW & PREDICTIONS
AFTER 1:02:00 you get our WrestleMania 40 (Night One) FULL REVIEW
You know we love our wrestling here at the BFE (well some of us...). Join Ian from Best Film Ever and Stew from The Stew World Order podcast as we break the BFE format by looking at WrestleMania 40 (Night One). We discuss whether The Rock is helping or hurting creative? Do we rate matches higher or lower based on our representations? What other stories besides Cody Rhodes needs finishing this year? And whether a two-night WrestleMania card is diluting the quality off matches that qualify for the event? We'll answer all these questions on WrestleMania 40 (Night One) and then we tell you whether you should SEE IT or SKIP IT.

FIRST 23:40 are a spoiler-free review with our See It/Skip It verdict
AFTER 23:40 it's a full spoiler review
You know the BFE is getting up there in years when we're doing a SIOSI that's a sequel to an earlier film that we also did a SIOSI on.  Join us as we look at the sequel to a legacy sequel in Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire. We discuss whether Paul Rudd is being over-exposed? Are there too many characters in this film? Did we need every character back from Oklahoma in New York City? Were all the actors even trying all that hard? Which returns made us cheer and which made us groan? And whether Ghostbusters is trying to pivot from an adult based audience to a pre-teen audience. We'll answer all these questions on Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire and then we tell you whether you should SEE IT or SKIP IT.

It's WrestleMania week and the BFE are doing their annual tradition of finding something wrestling-related for the  someone asks if you're a god, you say yes. Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasters, Ian and Liam (Georgia, Megs, and Ethan aren't booked so they're not showing up) as we're heading from bingo halls to the Royal Rumble and everywhere in between in the Barry Blaustein documentary, Beyond The Mat.  We're wishing you a good day in our 220th episode as we discuss:
Ian breaks down panto etiquette
Liam plays "wrestler or hockey player?"
We continue our discourse regarding if The Rock is really a good guy
We talk about what the appeal is to deathmatch wrestling
Why do wrestlers (and wrestling fans) get so bent out of shape over the word 'fake'?
Why do wrestling fans stay somewhat closeted?
After watching this, does Blaustein lead the audience to the same conclusion he came up with?
Whether or not Beyond the Mat is the Best Film Ever
