The Batman (2022)

Tonight, Sean and I take a look at one of the biggest releases of the year:  Matt Reeves’ reboot of The Batman.  We have slightly different opinions of the finished product.  This podcast is mostly spoiler-free, but the last few minutes *might* contain a few mild plot hints.  Don’t worry–we’ll give you a heads up before…

Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) *spoilers

It’s totally appropriate that the biggest Spider-flick leads to the biggest episode of Cinemavino ever!  For over one hour, we discuss Spider-Man: No Way Home, the latest and greatest MCU movie made.  We have strong opinions, and almost all of them are fascinating. I’ll say it right here:  SPOILERS ABOUND!  If you haven’t seen this awesome superhero…

The Holiday (2006)

We’re gonna kick off this season with a series of very different Christmas flicks.  That begins with The Holiday, a prototypical offering of Hollywood schmaltz.  It was written and directed by Nancy Meyers (What Women Want, Something’s Gotta Give), who has a strong command of frothy rom-coms.  In fact, she might be the best this side of…

The Beatles: Get Back (Episode 1)

The Beatles are my all-time favorite band, and I’ve spent my life as a walking encyclopedia of their music and history.  Like millions of fans, their music has changed my life.  Long story short:  This isn’t just another podcast for me. I’ve been pumped for Peter Jackson’s documentary since I saw his work on They Shall…

Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021) *spoilers

Welcome to a very special episode of Cinemavino!  We’re all huge Ghostbusters fans, so we were eager to take a look at the latest sequel, Afterlife.  Everybody enjoyed it, to varying degrees.  In my personal opinion, it’s probably the best Part III they could’ve possibly put together. My review of Ghostbusters: Afterlife is right here.   This one’s exclusively in…

Another Round (2021)

For this week’s Cinemavino, it’s one of the more decorated movies we’ve covered in a good long while:  Another Round won the Academy Award for Best International Feature, and Thomas Vinterburg was nominated for Best Director.  After a steady stream of Halloween flicks, this art house flick was a nice palate cleanser. The crux of the…

Eternals (2021) *spoilers

Our discussion of Marvel’s Eternals was planned to be a mini-episode, but it turns out that each of us had a lot to say.  So, we present you a full episode discussing the MCU’s latest offering.  Spoilers abound, so do proceed with caution.  This film is only in theaters, so if you haven’t seen it, do…

Tremors (1990)

This week’s episode is a real labor of love.  Tremors is personal favorite of ours, a cult classic, and a full-on nostalgia trip.  We all loved rewatching and talking about it.  If you’re looking for pure junk food entertainment for Halloween, Tremors might be the absolute cream of the crop. For this week’s vino, we went…

Con Air (1997)

This week’s Cinemavino takes us back to one of the all-time guilty pleasure movies.  That’s right, gang–it’s Con Air!  With this magnificently strange action flick, you get the souped-up action and political incorrectness of the 80s, melded with the upgraded production skills of the 90s.  Plus, it’s also a good chance to check out Nicolas Cage with…

The Lion in Winter (1968)

New season, new series!  With the approach of fall, we have to conclude our look at summer sequels, although those were quite a bit of fun.  It was great to revisit some of those old favorites, including Batman Returns and TMNT II. For the next four weeks, we’re going to spend an episode spotlighting each host of Cinemavino.  Each…
