🚨🚨🚨 Bonus episode 🚨🚨🚨 Flamily, this is a fun one. We have yet another bonus episode for your hungry ears, this time digging through troves of movie trivia to declare who is King Flam. While the casinos might back Colin, did Sean actually pull off a win? Did Colin shine like the bright star he thinks he is? Or did they both get exposed as film-ignorant fools? Tune in to this modern day gladiator fight and enjoy.

In this episode our valiant hosts try to make sense of Bergman’s impenetrable dream sequences and dense introspection. Colin has the worst take of the entire podcast as he hates on one of the greatest films ever made. Listen close as our two ignoble fools label a sequence “kafkaesque” despite only listening to half an audiobook version of “The Trial”. All your favorite characters are in this one including Sara the Manic Pixie Swede Girl, that old dude with the ear horn, and Evald who just really hates being alive.
• Is 40 Years enough time before you hit on your house maiden?
• Is this movie really bad or really good?
• Wtf is up with the clocks?

FilmFlam Is Back. and this time we’re scared. This week we take another (skinny) dip into the murky waters of Kubrick’s mind. Listen to our two intrepid and foolish hosts put all rumors about Room 237 to rest in the most expansive and astute Shining analysis ever done. Make sure to listen for such atrociously bad takes like: Colin granting Quentin Tarantino an N-word Pass, pining for Wendy Torrence to step on him, and (quite audaciously) what would he would fix about one of the greatest films in it's genre.
Outstanding questions:
* Why can't the contractor remodel my bathroom to look like that?
* Why doesn’t Jack ever get to play?
* Are they hiring at the Overlook Hotel?

They’ve talked about Woody Allen, they’ve mentioned Louis CK, but today the Film Flam duo dives into Roman Polanski’s Chinatown. They start by reminding the audience that no crime is heinous enough to keep them from enjoying the perpetrator’s art, and then lurch haphazardly through the different twists and turns of this excellent film. Listen in for insights that will take your water-related business to the next level.
Join us next week for another film where Nicholson is a bright and luminous star, The Shining. Colin will be keeping his lights on for this one.

In this episode of Film Flam, Colin and Sean dig into another old, strange movie, and end up feeling strange, again. Werner Herzog’s "Aguirre, The Wrath of God" turns all our hopes of victory and epic accomplishment to a fine dust that Herzog equates to the whole human project. But there are so many lessons to learn spanning gold, unsalted fish, and opportunistic monkeys.
Selected questions:
* Is man good or bad?
* Who is Kinski and why is he so mad?
* Should we really be this gung-ho about a German with a cult following?
*Will Aguirre's pure bloodline stand the test of time?
Find out the answers to these and all your other questions in this episode of Film Flam.

For this episode, two people who sound just like Colin and Sean (but with French accents) learn for themselves that truth is indeed stranger than fiction (shout-out Emma Thompson). The Imposter teaches the two many lessons better left untaught, including that apparently any parent could be fooled into thinking literally anyone—no matter how incredibly distinct they are from their child—is their child. Tune in to hear how someone undiagnosably weird bowls through everyone’s lives for a reason mysterious enough that not even Film Flam understands it.

Welcome back to Film Flam Sunday, the ep is finally here. You’re welcome you grovelers.
In this special spooky episode FilmFlamSean and FilmFlamColin cover their first horror film, John Carpenter’s classic 1980s film The Thing. Colin watched it in a park in broad daylight to not get scared which didn’t work. The two have their usual lively and edifying discussion, with Colin now actually respecting the genre, and Sean multiple times parading around how not scared he was. Whether you’re five years old or a hundred we think this movie has something for you.
Join us next week to talk about the documentary "The Imposter", a tale of deception and weirdness the likes of which the Flamily does not yet know.

Film Flam is back again, this time to tackle the foreign fantasy frenzy that is Pan’s Labyrinth. Colin comes to our hallowed episode without having prepared a question so Sean just talks about other shit he’s watched recently. Colin still has the nerve to call this off-topic.
Then the duo jumps in, leaving no roots unbathed. Colin argues that it would have been more edifying had the sadistic fascist been painted in a nicer light, Sean says torture bothers him, and they both complain there wasn’t more fae. It ends with them taking the extra time to argue about Sean’s rating system, which he benevolently suspends to stoop to the moral low of the public, of which Colin is a part. Sean then gives a complaining Colin 3 films to choose from, 2 of which he wouldn’t have wanted to watch. So with that, enjoy the podcast, and join us next week to discuss John Carpenter’s The Thing!
Questions:
* Does Colin know his Mexico from his Spain?
* Is this the same mandrake as from Dr. Strangelove?
* Is the real labyrinth Sean’s attempts to make a point?

In this episode, Colin and Sean take their combined 30 years of life experience to teach you how to live, based on all they learned from Akira’s Ikiru. They take the discussion of foreign films as an opportunity to revel in American cultural supremacy, with this week’s film not dissuading Sean from saying that the Japanese can’t make dramas, which he finds “creepy.” Colin surprisingly doesn’t claim he watched only foreign films as a child and has just recently gotten into American cinema. Is he losing his edge?
Diving into the deep and rashy waters of Ikiru, the duo unpacks the different stages of Kanji’s life and what they tell us. Is it all about partying? Is it all about young women? Or, in the end, is it really about making a bunch of drunk bureaucrats say your name? Find out what this whole life thing is all about in this episode.
Outstanding questions:
* What language is The Double Life of Veronique in?
* Which department actually handles water?
* Is Sean getting arrested by Comcast?

Welcome to a new and unconventional episode of the most unorthodox film podcast on the world wide reticulation. Join Co-hosts Colin & Sean in a stream of consciousness style romp through several different segments including: Quizzing each other on Critic and Audience percentage scores for randomly chosen films on the Rotten Tomatoes website. Colin whining that he didn't bet on certain outcomes of the Oscars that he swears he predicted (in addition to getting certain outcomes wildly wrong live and on-air). And of course it wouldn't be a complete episode without a passionate debate of Sean's patented Letterboxd review criteria.

In this week's electrifying analysis Film Flam Co-Hosts Colin & Sean discuss college dropout Woody Allen's box office disappointment Manhattan Murder Mystery. No conversation in which ol' Woodrow is mentioned would be complete without a slapdash chat about the separation of art from the artist and we here at Film Flam were only too happy to oblige. So open up a restaurant with us for our exploration of this fun murder mystery with a generous helping of classic woody-isms, a dash of marital discord, and just a taste of real artistic filmmaking.

Today we review either Ingmar or Ingrid Bergman’s Through a Glass Darkly, a movie about three men and one woman. For the intro, Sean asks Colin to ask Sean a question, which leads to about as insightful an intro segment as it sounds like it would. Thankfully, they quickly get into the movie, with Colin finding no objection to Martin the Pervert, Sean saying God isn’t interesting, and the audience probably going insane.
As always, this episode will leave listeners with 3 deep and abiding questions: Can the Swedes build a normal helicopter? Will Colin ever get the Through a Glass Darkly/Magnificent Ambersons crossover ep he so yearns for? Does Sean just hate families? If you know the answer to any of these questions, then start your own podcast.
Actual Discussion of Through a Glass Darkly starts at 9:06
And thanks again to renowned Flamily member Johnny V for the excellent intro music! Everyone else, please enjoy the fruits of his labor.

In the opening segment of this episode of Film Flam, Colin and Sean ask themselves: where are all the best actors? Colin claims they’re all with us right now while Sean refuses to have an opinion and instead gives vague economics-y reasons why they might be doing tv rather than flim. And in the end, it seems Sean can’t name a single actor.
Then, they dive into Andrew Davis’s moneymaker The Fugitive, a tale of competence, loss, and trenchcoat conventions. This time they both mess up the character names, and Colin argues that it’s okay to bitch and moan at a guy 5 minutes after he saves your life.
And finally, Sean hems and haws and hems some more before choosing the next movie: Through a Glass Darkly. Join us next week to find out if it’s a box office success or failure.
Outstanding questions from this episode:
- Is the Chicago Police Department really just a bunch of Chubby Police Dopes?
- Can you orchestrate the killing of your friend’s wife and still be a “total bro”?
- When are they finally going to execute Richard Kimble?

Colin and Sean traipse through the first ten films they've covered and pit the films against each other in a gauntlet to decide the crown jewel of Sean's worst introduction. The boys start out by discussing box office whims before plowing through ten completely disparate and incomparable films and comparing them unceremoniously.
Have the FilmFlam boys grown as viewers and critics? Will they agree on favorite films? Will cone shaped bras be discussed at length? Tune in to find out.

Finch me, I must be dreaming! In this episode, Colin and Sean discuss David Fincher’s sequel to Seven Pounds, The Game, an exciting and twisty thriller designed to make you question who you are and what a game is. Colin and Sean pay homage to a courageous but disgraced Film Flammer who put his name on the line, and came out worse for wear and with nothing gained. But is he still better off than gamer Nicholas Van Orten? Tune in to find out.

In this episode, Colin and Sean gaily rendezvous through the 1987 comedy/drama Withnail and I. They discuss the dysfunctional, magnetic, alcoholism-fueled friendship of Withnail and Marwood, which apparently Colin took as a call to boozing (Sean prudently abstained).
The pair also discusses the (irrelevant) differences between euros and pounds, why Colin is passionate about stop motion film, and the importance of humility in making it to the big leagues (like being a top podcaster).
