Dog Soldiers

Wayne's World

This week, Kev 'n' Ugie watched Wayne's World! This was Ugie's first time seeing it and he wasn't a fan. Kev tried to be a gracious, forgiving friend but we're not sure he pulled it off. The boys do their usual breakdown of all of their favorite parts of the movie. The best part of this episode, however, is them being completely misaligned on whether it's a good movie. It's a first for the pod and thankfully more episodes will still be coming! Really what we (meaning Kev) learned here is that this is a pretty white movie. The depiction of suburban metalheads speaks to a pretty specific demographic, and that's a demographic Ugie and his family were not part of. What do y'all think? Is Ugie being too harsh? Or is Wayne's World really a movie that you need to grow up on to appreciate? 🎙️ The Black and White Cinema Podcast with Kev 'n' Ugie 📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@kev_n_ugie [https://www.youtube.com/@kev_n_ugie] 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-n-ugie/id1874324373 [https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-n-ugie/id1874324373] 🎧 Amazon Podcasts: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/9d1ba56a-bfe8-45c8-aad8-47a28a3f3829/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-'n'-ugie [https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/9d1ba56a-bfe8-45c8-aad8-47a28a3f3829/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-'n'-ugie] 🌐 allmylinks: https://allmylinks.com/kev-n-ugie [https://allmylinks.com/kev-n-ugie] #WaynesWorld #MikeMyers #DanaCarvey #Podcast #90sMovies

The Usual Suspects

This week the boys had the daunting task of watching a Kevin Spacey movie in 2026 and trying to enjoy it. It's a dirty job, but someone's gotta do it. The Usual Suspects is by far one of the greatest unfolding mysteries in cinema history and has influences countless successors. The boys hopped in to relive it and honestly loved every second of it. The pacing, the camera work, and the endless permutations of "what if" make this a true gem of a film. It's the kind of movie where every watch unlocks more questions, and each one has many possible answers. Kev and Ugie end up all over the place with this one, but one thing is for sure: you can still enjoy this movie today, as long as you have the capacity for separating the art from the artist. Which is, admittedly, a big ask. 🎙️ The Black and White Cinema Podcast with Kev 'n' Ugie 📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@kev_n_ugie [https://www.youtube.com/@kev_n_ugie] 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-n-ugie/id1874324373 [https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-n-ugie/id1874324373] 🎧 Amazon Podcasts: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/9d1ba56a-bfe8-45c8-aad8-47a28a3f3829/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-'n'-ugie [https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/9d1ba56a-bfe8-45c8-aad8-47a28a3f3829/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-'n'-ugie] 🌐 allmylinks: https://allmylinks.com/kev-n-ugie [https://allmylinks.com/kev-n-ugie] #TheUsualSuspects #KevinSpacey #KeyserSoze #Podcast #CrimeFilm

American Pie

This week the boys watched a movie they've seen quite literally DOZENS of times: American Pie. This movie didn't just define a genre, it defined a generation. That definition comes with just as much good as it does bad, and Kev & Ugie do their best to unpack all of it. First the good: Eugene Levy in a beautifully organic comedic representation of all dads ever, Sean William Scott's Steve Stifler stealing the film despite having the fewest lines, Alyson Hannigan's iconic "band camp" lines. And, of course, plenty of bad. Primarily the fact that Nadia is the victim of a legitimate crime and is expelled from the country because of it. Also Kevin (the character, not Kev) needs serious therapy (okay maybe Kev does too). What do you think about this film and particularly how it's aged? 🎙️ The Black and White Cinema Podcast with Kev 'n' Ugie 📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@kev_n_ugie [https://www.youtube.com/@kev_n_ugie] 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-n-ugie/id1874324373 [https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-n-ugie/id1874324373] 🎧 Amazon Podcasts: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/9d1ba56a-bfe8-45c8-aad8-47a28a3f3829/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-'n'-ugie [https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/9d1ba56a-bfe8-45c8-aad8-47a28a3f3829/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-'n'-ugie] 🌐 allmylinks: https://allmylinks.com/kev-n-ugie [https://allmylinks.com/kev-n-ugie] #AmericanPie #SeannWilliamScott #JenniferCoolidge #Podcast #90sMovies

The Kingdom

This week, the boys watched The Kingdom. What Kev remembered as an action-packed thriller actually turned out to be something quite different, for better and worse. From Pete Berg ("friend of the podcast") comes an accidentally-political time capsule of the way the US saw the middle east in the mid-2000s. While it seems to have been an earnest attempt at commenting on the multi-generational cycle of violence and corruption, there were skidmarks of "'MURICA" all over the film's proverbial undies. We ended up still having a good time, but it was certainly interesting to look at it through 2026 eyes. Putting all that aside, though, what you end up with on the surface is a legitimately well-shot, well-acted, affecting movie. The cast is excellent top-to-bottom with some really shining performances from Ashraf Barhom and Jamie Foxx that carry the heart of the film. What Pete Berg lacks as a partner to Detective Fanning (we won't forget!) he more than makes up for as a director. The sets and cinematography are really affecting and bring you into the world. What do you think? Do the visuals and the excitement make up for the "messy" politics? Or did you cringe too hard to even see the good parts? 🎙️ The Black and White Cinema Podcast with Kev 'n' Ugie 📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@kev_n_ugie [https://www.youtube.com/@kev_n_ugie] 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-n-ugie/id1874324373 [https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-n-ugie/id1874324373] 🎧 Amazon Podcasts: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/9d1ba56a-bfe8-45c8-aad8-47a28a3f3829/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-'n'-ugie [https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/9d1ba56a-bfe8-45c8-aad8-47a28a3f3829/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-'n'-ugie] 🌐 allmylinks: https://allmylinks.com/kev-n-ugie [https://allmylinks.com/kev-n-ugie] #TheKingdom #JamieFoxx #PeterBerg #Podcast #ActionThriller

Space Jam

This week the boys welcome Web back to the show and Ugie's brother Brian joins us for the first (but not last) time. The squad is here to cover the 90s consumerist fever dream that is Space Jam, celebrating its 30th anniversary later this year. Let's just make it clear: we all love this movie. We all grew up on this movie, so obviously it is a part of who we are. But... boy, is this a bad movie by most measures. Come join us as we try to marry our film analysis with our childhood and deal with the discord. From Michael Jordan's "performance" to the cameos to the excellence of the Looney-Tunes-ness of it all, we cover every angle of this movie. We also cover a lot of things that have little-to-nothing to do with the movie. Keep an eye out in particular for the moment where the Gen Z kid asks a bunch of Millennials if they remember Toys R Us. 🎙️ The Black and White Cinema Podcast with Kev 'n' Ugie 📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@kev_n_ugie [https://www.youtube.com/@kev_n_ugie] 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-n-ugie/id1874324373 [https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-n-ugie/id1874324373] 🎧 Amazon Podcasts: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/9d1ba56a-bfe8-45c8-aad8-47a28a3f3829/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-'n'-ugie [https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/9d1ba56a-bfe8-45c8-aad8-47a28a3f3829/the-black-and-white-cinema-podcast-with-kev-'n'-ugie] 🌐 allmylinks: https://allmylinks.com/kev-n-ugie [https://allmylinks.com/kev-n-ugie]
