This week we tackle Oren Peli’s viral, scare-fest phenomenon “Paranormal Activity,” and then on to Ruben Fleischer’s Woody Harrelson-is-a-hillybilly-zombie-killer flick, “Zombieland.” Too much horror to handle? Find somebody to hold on to and [...] Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website TMA FilmCast #16 – The Hurt Locker, Enemy at the Gates This week Kathryn Bigelow’s Iraq War film, “The Hurt Locker,” goes under the TMA microscope.

To find out you’ll have [...] Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website TMA FilmCast #17 – Public Enemies, Moon Michael Mann’s highly anticipated depression-era gangster flick, “Public Enemies” gets the TMA FilmCast treatment this week.

Marc Webb’s debut feature, the hipster-tinged “(500) Days of Summer” is an indie hit that’s been hailed as a transcended unconventional love story. So, can Tommy from “3rd Rock From the Sun” and Summer, the singing department [...] Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website TMA FilmCast #15 – Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Monumental hack, Michael Bay, has managed to explode and destroy his way into the top spot at the box office with his mind-numbing, racist, narcissistic, misogynistic, anti-intellectual, anti-humanity sequel, “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen,” which Peter Travers at Rolling Stone called the “worst film of the decade.”  But did we like it?  You’ll have to [...] Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website TMA FilmCast #21 – District 9 Rookie director, Neill Blomkamp, has received untold accolades for his alien apartheid allegory, “District 9.” Can this $30 million socially conscious film please both the sci-fi fanboys and hardcore film snobs?  And what exactly does this mean for fans of “Halo”?  You’ll have to listen to find out! Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website TMA FilmCast #18 – The Ugly Truth, Cut From Home This week’s show is a study in contrast as we review and compare Hollywood’s painfully formulaic and offensive offering, “The Ugly Truth,” and the stubbornly independent, shoe-string budgeted, almost entirely improvised “Cut From Home.” What can we learn from the overworked, diluted scripts and direction of a Hollywood tentpole release — and of [...] Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website TMA FilmCast #19 – Funny People, John Hughes Judd Apatow’s latest venture into the world of comedy, “Funny People,” starring Adam Sandler and Seth Rogen goes under the TMA microscope. Is it a sign of maturation for the director? Or just a lot of penis jokes and sophomoric fare? Also, Scott and I discuss the impact and influence of 1980s [...] Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website TMA FilmCast #10 – Terminator Salvation, Night at the Museum (Smithsonian) What do you get when you mix the anti-vowel (McG) director of “Charlie’s Angels,” with the anti-character, anti-plot writers of “Catwoman?”  “Terminator Salvation,” of course.  How bad is it?  You’ll have to listen to the dizzying, time-travel-laden podcast to find out!  Also, “Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian” is yet another example of [...] Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website TMA FilmCast #11 – Up What do you get when you mix world-class animation with skilled storytellers, talented voice actors, and a dose of harrowing humanity?  If you said “Terminator Salvation” you’d be wrong.  That movie sucks, remember?  I’m talking about Disney-Pixar’s tenth consecutive critical and commercial mega-hit, “Up.”  But does it live up to Pixar’s stellar track record?  You’ll [...] Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website TMA FilmCast #12 – Drag Me to Hell Our most terrifying show yet! And no, I’m not talking about the audio quality. Just donate and we’ll be able to fix that!

This enigma of an actor has been in some of cinema’s all-time greats (”Pulp Fiction”) and all-time embarrassments (”Battlefield Earth”). And in each endeavor, he seems unable to just simply look like a normal human being. So, in light of our feature review this week, “The [...] Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website TMA FilmCast #8 - Star Trek, Hunger JJ Abrams’ “Star Trek” kicks off the summer blockbuster season. Does it soar or fizzle? The task of rebooting an ailing franchise can be daunting.
