Special Features 016: Bottle Rocket (promo)

Movie Podcast Network proudly presents Special Features Episode 019!  Matt (The Sci-fi Podcast, We Deal in Lead) and Jason (We Deal in Lead) finally get around to discussing one of the best films to come out of the 90s – BOTTLE ROCKET.

Wes Anderson, director of some of the most beloved, quirky comedies over the past twenty years, directs his first (and arguably best) movie in Bottle Rocket. The simple yet effective film paved the way for many copycats and inspired filmmakers, and continues to impress and hold up more than twenty years later.

Featuring the Wilson brothers (Owen, Luke, Andrew) and legendary actor James Caan, the cast is rounded out by a number of excellent supporting cast members, each of which serve as a memorable part of the story. Bottle Rocket is quotable, easy to watch, and best of all the launching pad for the careers of several impressive actors and filmmakers alike.

Special Features 014: CTS Podcast’s Very Best Films of the Aughts, 2000-2009 (Reissue)

Special Features - CTS Best Films of the Aughts

Brought to you by Movie Podcast Network and sponsored by Movie Podcast Weekly, we proudly present Special Features Episode 014, a reissue of the Considering the Sequels podcast’s “Very Best Films of the Aughts,” a bonus episode that celebrates the best cinema of the years 2000 through 2009.

We wanted those who have not yet subscribed to our Movie Podcast Network Special Features feed to have a little taste of the kind of off-beat but entertaining content you get through becoming a patron for the low, low price of just $2.50 per month.

Jason, Andy and Karl’s very first podcast was Considering the Sequels (or CTS Podcast), launched in June 2010. (Ryan wasn’t born yet.) Typically, we would review movie franchises and determine whether the primary film’s sequels were deemed as “cinematic dead-horse beating.” But we sometimes released special episodes, like The Very Best Films of the Aughts, which was recorded on November 28, 2010 — the day Leslie Nielsen died.
