episode Season 4, Ep. 10: Overlord artwork

Season 4, Ep. 10: Overlord

On June 6th, 1944 the Allied invasion of nazi-occupied France took place, known colloquially as D-Day. This mission was also referred to as Operation Overlord, and Reel Poppycock is honoring that important WWII event on its 82nd anniversary by covering the 2018 film "Overlord." Trevor considers himself an amateur World War 2 buff, and he was all too excited to cover another movie set during D-Day, as the Poppycock crew tackled "Saving Private Ryan" on this same date last year. "Overlord" is not the same type of genre re-defining classic that "Saving Private Ryan" is, but it is a semi-hidden gem, and well worth the watch. This podcast episode also delves deep into some lesser known aspects of true evil that the Axis countries of Germany and Japan would employ, while not sugarcoating some choices made by the Allies. "Overlord" depicts Airborne troops, who have to fly through anti-aircraft fire, and then parachute into hostile territory. There is a lot of adherence to real historical events, but this movie *does* depict alternative history, and would that alternative version history prove too much to keep Ed from fully enjoying the film? And does KC think that Wyatt Russell, the son of their favorite Meat Shield, can pull off the same type of Meat Shielding as his Pops? You'll just have to tune in to find out! A friendly reminder that one can remain vehemently against the military industrial complex, while still honoring the personal sacrifices of the troops. Peace, and cheers!     00:02:32 Reel Basic Facts 00:06:50 Ed isn't Smellin' what Pacino was Cookin' in "Scent of a Woman" 00:16:14 Trevor's WWII Historical Perspective 00:23:56 Bent Off Good Wine Like Who? 00:27:10 Poppycock (non-pop) Quiz 00:34:47 Chloe is Smoke, and RZA says "Bong Bong," what's new? 00:39:15 Alternate History features Integrated Airborne Units 00:46:38 KC Drops a Lil Poppycock 00:52:30 Un-Flappable Captain Bad America gets all up in dem Weird Guts 01:03:14 The Turn Awaits 01:12:27 Our Protagonists get Defiant, like "Defiance," and Aint Got No Time To Bleed neither 01:20:53 Meat Shield gets Meat Hooked 01:30:38 Get Lost in Meg Foster's Eyes 01:33:26 Poppycock Round-Up 01:48:19 Final Thoughts: F*ck nazis       {credit to all respective artists for song clips used in this episode, all rights reserved} - "Bokeem Woodbine" by Nas; album: Magic 2; label: BMI/Universal - "The Mistake is Loose" by Jed Kurzel; album: Overlord (Music from the Motion Picture) label: Paramount Music - "Bridging the Gap" by Nas and Olu Dara; album: Street's Disciple; label: Sony Music   Still frame movie images for the slide show provided by: imdb.com       Instagram: @reelpoppycock YouTube: Reel Poppycock Host K.C. @dangerbrewer on Instagram Host Ed Lanier @edlaniermusic on Instagram Host Trevor Boland (He is old, find him on Facebook)

Season 4, Ep. 9: Vice Squad (1953)

We're taking it way back to 1953, and touching on film noir with our new episode covering "Vice Squad."   Directed by Arnold Laven , KC rightly calls this flick out as being highly influential for "cop-a-ganda" style TV shows.   Trevor dives deep into two fascinating golden age stars in the Reel Basic Facts: gangster prototype Edward G. Robinson, m'yeah see; and Paulette Goddard, who Ed labels as an old-timey template for Kim Kardashian.    All that and more on this new episode of Reel Poppycock, enjoy!     00:04:29 Thanks for the fan pick Leonard! 00:07:07 Reel Basic Facts 00:10:40 Edward G.

Season 4, Ep. 8: Tammy and the T-Rex (Gore Cut)

Some movies are bad. Some movies are so bad, that they're actually good, but it is a delicate balance.   How self-aware were the filmmakers? Do the filmmakers have talent, and how much budget was involved? Ultimately the most important question: is the final product entertaining?   A movie can be completely ridiculous, or full of Poppycock as we'd say, and still be heaps of fun at the same time.   Those qualifiers couldn't apply more to our new episode covering the 1994 sentimental bloodbath slash teenage romance monster movie "Tammy and the T-Rex."   Selected out of Reel Poppycock's Black Hat, "Tammy and the T-Rex" was a fan suggestion from Liana Windhorst, and she absolutely nailed her pick! Denise Richards & Paul Walker "shine" is this early career gore-fest and oft forgotten about entry to their filmographies.   How will Ed, KC, and Trevor deal with an animatronic dinosaur implanted with the brain of a teenage boy? You'll just have to listen to find out, enjoy!       00:01:05 Plenty Thanks to Liana for her Perfect Poppycock Pick 00:05:50 Reel Basic Facts 00:11:46 Raffill Reinterprets Spielberg - "Schindler's Pissed" 00:19:51 Poppycock (non-pop) Quiz 00:29:00 Film Analysis Begins 00:35:52 Testicular Stand-Off - "How'd you get the Beans above the Frank?" 00:48:08 Tammy's Dad is a Whole B*tch 00:57:25 Oh Pretty Baby Why You Walkin Away? 01:04:01 The Gory Glory we all Came For 01:09:50 Raw Doggin a Pizza Box on the Dashboard again, huh Pedro? 01:14:30 Can T-Rex arms Manipulate a 90's Pay Phone? 01:20:49 Dinos is Crazy baby, don't forget that boy told you - Get, that.
