I Watch More Movies Than You

We review 3 movies every episode and we release weekly! New episode every Tuesday at 8am EST! One movie is a new theatrical release, one film is always a HORROR movie, and then the third is a classic movie deep dive! Oscar movies covered during Oscar season! Welcome to I WATCH MORE MOVIES THAN YOU , and please take that as a challenge. What else on earth can you spend 10 bucks and then leave the planet for 2 hours !? Only movies. Come join us as we experience, explore, and journey through the greatest art form in history.I run a movie theater, a film exhibitor if you will! And my cohost sells insurance (and a published author), but what separates us? WE WATCH MORE MOVIES THAN YOU! More than one a day, think you got us beat!? Doubtful. But we would love to have you come along as we journey throughout the greatest artform in history, cinema!We are going through the process of watching movies, discussing their ins, outs, themes, cinematography, directors, actors, how the film made us FEEL. And we are reading books on movie critique and review, while just laughing our way through the podcast and having a blast. So come and let's talk cinema together, and even grow and learn in our movie critique, discussion, and review repertoire. I truly believe deep diving into movies and reviewing films only creates a deeper fascination with this beautiful artform. This is a movie review podcast for the person searching for people that do not take themselves serious, enjoy laughing, comedy, self(cohost)-deprecating humor, and deep and fantastical movie discussions.Movies are magic, and they make up the very fabric of my DNA, so I would love the chance for you to come and nerd out with us as we watch as many as humanly possible and then talk about them- what's better than that!? That is how I'd like to spend my time on this rock.

The Flash, The Blackening, American Graffiti (1973) Movie Review and Deep Dive

June 21, 2023 • Ken Palmer • Episode 19

Barry Allen, aka The Flash, has finally arrived! And boy has it! We review The Flash in a spoiler free review, and then we announce we are entering the spoiler included deep dive at 00:35:06! The Flash is directed by 2017 It's Andy Muschietti Spaghetti, staring Michael Keaton, Ezra Miller, Sasha Calle, and some all-star cameos I don't want to spoil here! Does the Flash go by in a hurry, leaving you to pick up the pieces? Or is it the perfect storm of comic book movie glory that obliterates the DCEU and paves way for Gunn's DC? Listen and find out nerds! Plus, MICHAEL KEATON's BATMAN is back- does he live up!? Duh. But listen anyway. Plus, would you believe me if I told you Supergirl steals the show? Come find out.

Up next is the highly anticipated, among horror fans, The Blackening! The Blackening finally found its way to theaters and I couldn't wait to watch it- the infamous Trump trailer was hysterical, but does Tim Story's horror comedy live up to the bar set in the trailer, or did the film show its hand too early? Starring Antoinette Robertson, Dewayne Perkins, Sinqua Walls, Jay Pharaoh, and the scene-stealer Jermaine Fowler, we take a trip to a remote cabin in the woods on Juneteenth and follow our hilarious cast as they are stalked by a killer I can only describe as a black-masked racist version of The Collector! Peak your interest? Find out if The Blackening is worth the trip to the movie theater in our entirely spoiler free review!

Have you ever heard of Star Wars? Roger that. Ever wondered when Han Solo aka Harrison Ford was discovered, and how the heck it happened because he was a carpenter! What if I told you there was a movie that came before Star Wars by George Lucas, and that if it wasn't the success it was that he may have never got his epic space opera made? Welcome listeners to a stone cold classic film, American Graffiti! Welcome to maybe the best coming-of-age and one-night films of all time, with the immediate opening to a drive-in burger joint in Modesto, California, in 1962- that frozen in history heavenly time after WW2 but before Vietnam, where the mating ritual was done by the cars, the hair was slicked back, and cruising the strip was how you spent your nights. American Graffiti (1973) has one of the greatest soundtracks of all time, launched George Lucas, with the help of Godfather's Francis Ford Coppola, into Hollywood stardom. The plot is simple enough, a group of teens in Cali's central valley spend one final night after their high school graduation cruising the strip with their buddies before they each go off into separate directions in their lives. The plot is brought to life by Richard Dreyfuss, Ron Howard, Paul Le Mat, and so many more! But the magic is in the movie, do NOT miss our deep dive into this classic. See you in '62!
