Movie Boarding with Kingston Hannibal

About Movie Boarding with Kingston Hannibal

A movie podcast where I force my guests to watch any and all types of movies. Blockbusters, less known movies, box office bombs, cult classics, straight up bad movies, or movies that I really like. Then we discuss the movie. Since the guests are friends or family, I cater the movie just for them. Hopefully they end up liking the movie but its much more satisfying when they don't.

   Arrival with my Friend Kirsten #2 - " you're trying to like essentially break the fourth wall in your brain. "

   On this episode, my fellow Co-Heart Kirsten and I watch and discuss Arrival, one of my favorite movies of all time—easily in my top 10! We discuss Denis Villeneuve’s 2016 sci-fi masterpiece from 2016 , its source material, Story of Your Life by Ted Chiang, and the eternal debate: are the source material books better than the adapted movies? We dive into language, history, and the existential question at the heart of the film: If you knew your future, would you change it? Plus, we investigate what exactly was going on with Forest Whitaker’s accent. (Apparently, he was aiming for something like Boston or the East Coast) Film Credits: Directed by Denis Villeneuve; written by Eric Heisserer; starring Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner, Forest Whitaker, Michael Stuhlbarg, and Tzi Ma. Based on Ted Chiang’s 1998 novella Story of Your Life. My top ten favorite movie of all time so far: The Matrix Arrival Interstellar #moviepod #cinephil #moviepodcast #filmpodcast

   ¡Baile mi rey!... with Tess #3 -  "Come on, Firulais." (insert Mexican whistle)

   En este primer episodio del temporada 3 del podcast Movie Boarding, en Spanglish, con mi mamá, vemos la pelicula ¡Baile mi rey!… (1951), con Roberto Rodríguez con director y protagonizada por Resortes y Silvia Derbez. Esta película es muy especial para nosotros porque mi abuelo, el papá de mi mamá, Raúl Soto Soto, aparece en la película como bailarín extra durante algunas de las escenas del concurso de baile. Hablamos de la historia completamente inesperada —que va mucho más allá de lo que uno esperaría de una peli centrada en un concurso de baile. Hablemos de las esenas musicales, las secuencias de baile y cómo películas como esta forman parte de la Época de Oro del Cine Mexicano. También hablamos como ¡Baile mi rey!… sin querer parece influir en ideas y recursos cinematográficos que aparecerían en películas muchos años después. Y, por supuesto, hablamos de mi abuelo, de su talento para el baile y de lo especial que es ver un pequeño parte de nuestra historia familiar en una película mexicana de 1951. Como no sabo kid, probablemente se me escaparon algunos de los chistes por el camino, pero eso no me impidió disfrutar muchísimo esta película. ¡Andale Firulais!

This movie is especially meaningful to us because my grandfather, my mom’s dad, Raúl Soto Soto, appears in the film as a background dancer during some of the dance competition scenes. We get into the movie’s completely unexpected plot—which goes way beyond what you’d expect from a story centered around a dance competition—and talk about the musical numbers, the dance sequences, and how films like this fit into the Golden Age of Mexican Cinema. We also explore some of the ways ¡Baile mi rey!… seems to unintentionally influence filmmaking styles that would appear in movies years later. And, of course, we talk about my grandpa, his dancing prowess, and what it’s like to see a little piece of our family history preserved in a Mexican film from 1951. As a "no sabo kid", I probably missed some of the jokes along the way, but that didn’t stop me from enjoying this movie immensely. #CineDeOro #CineMexicano #DirectoresMexicanos #Mexico #CineLatinoamericano #LatinAmericanCinema #internationalfilm #resortes #derbez disclosure: AI used to make thumbnail Best no copyright music that is non copyrighted so you canuse it in your youtube videos. 👉 Join in here: https://www.youtube.com/c/NoCopyright...

   Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie with my Friend Tony 4 - "I missed the BTS reunion!"

   On this episode of Movie Boarding, I'm joined once again by my friend Tony for his first-ever watch of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie (1995). As a longtime fan of the franchise, I was excited to revisit one of my favorite childhood movies and see how it landed with someone experiencing it for the very first time. We dive into some of our favorite geeky topics, including the franchises and intellectual properties we think deserve a reboot, revival, or a second chance with modern audiences. We also discuss dream crossover events and which franchises are overdue for an unexpected team-up. We revisit Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie, directed by Bryan Spicer and starring Jason David Frank, Amy Jo Johnson, David Yost, Johnny Yong Bosch, Karan Ashley, Steve Cardenas, Paul Freeman, and Gabrielle Fitzpatrick. Afterward, we check out and discuss Power/Rangers (2015), the unauthorized fan film directed by Joseph Kahn and starring James Van Der Beek and Katee Sackhoff. We talk about whether a darker, grittier take on the franchise works, what lessons future Power Rangers adaptations could learn from it, and whether some franchises benefit from a mature reimagining while others are better left as they are. Whether you're a lifelong Power Rangers fan, a '90s kid looking for a nostalgia fix, or someone curious about one of the most unique fan films ever made, this episode is for you. An extended video version of this episode is also available on my main YouTube channel: @kingstonhannibal. It's morphin' time! #filmpod #90sclassic #powerangers #90smovie #moviepodcast Episode Corrections & Notes It's Seven of Nine, not "Nine of Seven." Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie was filmed primarily in Sydney, Australia. Power/Rangers (2015) was directed by Joseph Kahn. The Punisher: Dirty Laundry (2012) was directed by Phil Joanou. Mortal Kombat: Rebirth (2010) was directed by Kevin Tancharoen. One of the most famous fan films ever made is Batman: Dead End (2003), directed by Sandy Collora. The short features Batman confronting the Joker before encountering both Xenomorphs from Alien and Predators. It's available to watch on YouTube. According to Walter Jones, the original Black Ranger, the cast typically filmed four episodes every two weeks during production. Audri Dubois was the original actress cast as the Yellow Ranger before being replaced early in production. Jason David Frank played the original Green Ranger, Tommy Oliver. Paul Freeman, who played Ivan Ooze, is also known for playing Belloq in Raiders of the Lost Ark, not Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. I mistakenly said Joseph Kahn directed a Fast & Furious movie. I was actually thinking of Justin Lin, who directed several films in the franchise.
