About THE BIG 4-0

This is a podcast called THE BIG 4-0 with Ron and Peter. Every week we take a look at a seminal - or maybe not so seminal - movie that came out this week, 40 years ago. Some we love, some we hate, some we've never seen before, some we haven't seen in over 30 years, and some we wish we'd never seen. We discuss the film, its critical and commercial reception, and how that (and our) perception has perhaps shifted over the years. We also touch on any noteworthy current films and movie news in each episode. So, breakout the birthday cake (and a few beers) and join us for THE BIG 4-0!

RAW DEAL / INVADERS FROM MARS

Y'all know the drill... Happy BIG 4-0 to Schwarzenegger in one of his (deserved?) lesser-known vehicles RAW DEAL, and Tobe Hooper's equally (deserved?) memory-holed INVADERS FROM MARS.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
