In honor of the 50th anniversary of Francis Ford Coppola's masterpiece, The Godfather: Part II, Bald Move is rereleasing their coverage.
Jim and A.Ron do another deep dive into the world of Coppola's The Godfather, this time looking at Part II, which celebrates it's 40th anniversary tomorrow. A darker, more brooding, more intricate film that it's predecessor, we struggle to answer the question, which is better? Along the way we play a lot of what if's and comparisons. Clemenza or Pentangeli? Vito or Michael? Brando or De Niro? When did Vito decide to be the Don? What is Tom and Michael's relationship at the end? Where did Michael go wrong? DID Michael go wrong? All this and much more is contemplated in this mammoth two hour podcast, for your holiday enjoyment. Hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording it.

In honor of the 25th anniversary of Paul Thomas Anderson' Magnolia (1999), Bald Move is rereleasing their coverage.
Special thanks to Lauren, Anne, and Rick who chipped in to commission this podcast on Magnolia for Alex Myers as a Christmas (!!!) present. Jim and I had never seen Magnolia, the Paul Thomas Anderson classic before now, and wow is it a doozy. Starring greats such as William H. Macy, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Julianne Moore, to name just a few, it involves a day in the life of a dozen or so characters on a collision course with fate and coincidence, and what they'll learn about themselves and each other along the way. Fueled by raw emotion and melodrama, we were intrigued by the complex tale being woven before our eyes. If you haven't seen it, check it out before we spoil it for you on this podcast, because it's an amazing film.
Thanks again Lauren, Anne, and Rick! We couldn't do it without you. If you'd like to commission a podcast for yourself or a loved on, check out our shop for full details!

Let A.Ron and Jim paint you a picture of this episode of Severance. Helly is back, and she’s not happy about it. Mark’s sister is going into labor, which in a roundabout way results in Mark spilling his guts about Lumon. What is Lumon doing with goats? Tell A.Ron to pluck out his eyelashes. It’s for science.

Dylan hears a crying baby,
Evil Mrs. Cobel is acting crazy.
Severed Helly tries to escape,
Thwarted constantly by metaphorical red tape.
It is Mark’s turn to doubt his reality.
Never enough time for a pseudo-philosophy lesson,
You are invited to a wellness session.

Chasing greatness requires sacrifice, but does it require torturous conditions? Damien Chazelle wrote and directed a film that’s so hard to watch sometimes, but you can’t look away. J.K. Simmons plays the demented instructor of protege drummer Andrew, played by Miles Teller. What is the movie trying to say? Is it a maddening endorsement of maniacal leadership? Or is it a warning?

In honor of Fight Club's 25th Anniversary, Bald Move is re-releasing their podcast for listeners who have been around and those just joining. Enjoy the anniversary release!
Merry Christmas to Daniel L. from Alyssa, David, and Ryan, who joined forced to commission this podcast on 1999's "Fight Club", directed by David Fincher and starring Brad Pitt, Edward Norton, and Helena Bonham Carter. Fight Club is a dark and yet at times humorous look at the savage heart of mankind, and the guys have a lot of thoughts on it's ideas and philosophy, despite the constraints of talking about Fight Club while working within the film's first and second rule.
Once again, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to Daniel, and good on Alyssa, David, and Ryan for making it all happen. If you'd like to support Bald Move by commissioning your very own podcast, check out our store for details!

In honor of The Shawshank Redemption's 30th Anniversary, Bald Move is re-releasing their podcast for listeners who have been around and those just joining. Enjoy the anniversary release!
Special thanks to Hatorian, who by right of conquest in the Bald Move Fantasy Football leagues has won his prize; a commissioned podcast of his choice. He has chosen wisely, selecting the classic 1994 prison/drama/inspirational The Shawshank Redemption. This is a nearly perfect piece of filmmaking, with a confidence in pacing and direction from Frank Darabont matched by the nuanced work of the film's two leads, Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman. We had a lot of fun watching and discussing this one Hatorian. Hopefully, it won't be the longest podcast of your life...

A.Ron and Jim revisit this sophomoric take on vigilante justice. The director of this movie, Troy Duffy, is clearly a Tarantino fan. Did this male-power fantasy age well? Well…no. So why not? And can it be redeemed by Norman Reedus and Willem Dafoe?

Who was Ed Wood? This infamous auteur gathered a cult-following, a precursor of the “Ed Breen”s and “Tommy Wiseau”s of today. In this movie, Johnny Depp plays Ed Wood, an artist fighting the Hollywood machine, fighting societal expectations, and fighting for his friends. This highly quotable movie features lots of laughs, heartbreak, and otherwise obscure Hollywood history.

Francis Ford Coppola swung for the fences on this project. Megalopolis (2024) is a large, star-studded cast of people you know and love. The sci-fi, the drama, and the acting all have highs and lows through the film. Without the benefit of foresight, it’s hard to know exactly how this movie will impact the audiences of the future. But in the present, it just seems like Coppola thinks you’re a bit slow.
The next Bald Move First Run movie is Gladiator 2 (2024)!
