This Thursday at Nighthawk Cinema in Prospect Park: KEVIN GEEKS OUT ABOUT DOLLS hosted by Kate Wilkinson & Kevin Maher! A murderer's row of great guests! I'll be there talking about a movie I love. (Not CHINESE ROULETTE, but that's a good one too.) nitehawkcinema.com/prospectpark/movies/kgo-dolls/

THE PINK SMOKE PODCAST The Authentic Death of Hendry Jones We got @davidlambertart.bsky.social back to talk about one of the most underrated Western novels, its influence on Sam Peckinpah and Western cinema. Artwork by Tony Stella. m.soundcloud.com/user-564624820/ep-66-the-authentic-death-of

Always amuses me to remember that my Michael Caine-signed GET CARTER dvd is just sitting unceremoniously among my shelves.

On The Pink Smoke, writer/director Jim McBride and author @jfkenney.bsky.social join @thelastmachine.bsky.social to discuss the book JIM MCBRIDE'S LOST SCREENPLAYS OF THE 1970s, why those scripts were never produced, and what filmmaking was like in the 1970s! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/e...

Very sad to hear of the far-too-early passing of Corey Parker, who I love for both BIG MAN ON CAMPUS and HOW I GOT INTO COLLEGE but marked his legacy in my heart as Mädchen Amick's leading man in I'M DANGEROUS TONIGHT.

Whatever happens tonight, just want to express my supreme appreciation for the miracle that is #TheLastDriveIn. We were largely Joe Bob-less for 18 years, limited to bootlegs of old shows, his audio commentaries and odd appearance here & there. To get 8 more years of him has been amazing.

OUT NOW! An author we don't like. A game we can't play. A novelization that's... surprisingly tolerable if we grade on a curve. But with @patrickhwillems.bsky.social and @thelastmachine.bsky.social joining to discuss Shadowkeep, the conversation earns an A+ easily. Listen: shorturl.at/lDZ45

Waking up tomorrow and realizing there won't be any more Frederick Wiseman films is going to be soul-crushing.

As 2026 dawns, so will our season of video game novelizations! Featuring @ethanalter.bsky.social, @kradec.bsky.social, @philathans.bsky.social, @adamvole.com, @patrickhwillems.bsky.social, @thelastmachine.bsky.social, @dodgyboffin.com, @rockmarooned.bsky.social, @alexwolinetz.com, and more!

You love Larry Cohen, so you MUST listen to @thelastmachine.bsky.social's interview with @jfkenney.bsky.social, editor of Cohen's newly published memoirs and an unreleased Cohen screenplay! Joined by Andrew Overbye of @authorizedpod.bsky.social on THE PINK SMOKE! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/e...

OUT NOW! @thelastmachine.bsky.social joins to discuss Speed Zone, theoretically a third entry in the Cannonball Run series. Can three SCTV alumni save a film with no story or jokes? Why do we keep doing this? We think it had something to do with something called Carquake? Listen: shorturl.at/lDZ45

Just so happens, on this day of Tom Stoppard's departure, sorting through old crap, I found an ancient program from when I co-directed and co-starred in ROSENCRANTZ AND GUILDENSTERN ARE DEAD in high school. I still mumble "consistency is all I ask..." to myself every once in a while.

THE PINK SMOKE PODCAST Five from the Fire John Carpenter Ronny Yu Luchino Visconti Hilary Birmingham Robert Zemeckis If you could save 5 movies from these directors, which would you pick? We tasked @hwoodminotaur.bsky.social and Jon Laubinger of the #DirectorsTakePodcast to make the hard choice!

OUT NOW! @thelastmachine.bsky.social joins as we continue our quest to watch everything even tangentially related to Carquake (aka Cannonball), whether it has been novelized or not. Will diminished expectations benefit the sequel to a movie we mostly didn't love? Listen: shorturl.at/lDZ45

Legendary Scholar of the West @davidlambertart.bsky.social joins Chris Funderburg and @thelastmachine.bsky.social on The Pink Smoke to discuss the myth of Jeremiah Johnson, the novels that inspired the titular film, and the brilliant John Milius script! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/e...

THE PINK SMOKE PODCAST Ali: Fear Eats the Soul We sit down to discuss one of the warmest titles from the colder-than-death filmography of Rainer Werner Fassbinder, a story of how the misery of unaccepted love is made even more miserable when it is accepted. soundcloud.com/user-5646248...

Listen to me talk about Law and Order, Saint Johnson & just about every movie about Wyatt Earp that doesn't use the name Wyatt Earp on The Pink Smoke podcast with @thelastmachine.bsky.social & Christopher Funderburg.

Is Marlon Brando the most interesting part of The Missouri Breaks, or does he ruin what could have been a rich, laidback 70s Western? Or both? I got hammered & went on @menonfilm.bsky.social with fellow guest @thelastmachine.bsky.social to figure it out open.spotify.com/episode/3Y0o...
