What up yo.

New month, new podcast Oldboy and I sat down in front of the microphones and hit record on my overpriced MacBook Pro to discuss Tarantino’s new film, Once Upon A Time…In Hollywood, and to celebrate the cinematic achievement it is.

We then dive into Martin Scorsese’s new teaser trailer for The Irishman which dropped the previous day and teams Marty back up with Robert De Niro in a film that will be released in theaters and on Netflix come fall.

And finally to wrap it all up, I ask the question I probably should have been more careful to ask, “What did you think of the final season of Game Of Thrones”?

A great battle ensues.

I say the last season was rushed, with flashes of brilliance and laziness. I didn’t realize we were at war until I saw the look on Oldboy’s face change.

He didn’t agree with my assessment, he instead fought on behalf of D&D, hailing the series as a masterpiece…final season included.

This is a raw, uncut 120 minute podcast people…chapter 25 of The Chronicles Of Wes And Oldboy.

Enjoy!

Francis Ford Coppola’s
The Outsiders
Original & The Complete Novel Comparison Video

#TheOutsiders #FrancisFordCoppola #CarlindaCoppola #SEHinton #RumbleFish #MattDillon #PatrickSwayze #RobLowe #CThomasHowell #RalphMacchio #TomCruise #DianeLane In 1983 Francis Ford Coppola made two films back to back, The Outsiders and Rumble Fish. Then, in 2003, he cuts a new version… And it’s called: The Outsiders : The Complete Novel This is referring to the novel, the source material by author S.E. Hinton. He added 20 minutes of new material, new footage, and changed the entire score of the film. The score conducted by Carmine Coppola, Francis’s father by the way. The film we grew up on… The original film … Has been unavailable for […]

#LeavingNeverland
Leaving Neverland, 2019

The victims speak, in this unflinching horrifying 4 hour documentary about the sexual child abuse committed by Michael Jackson at his Neverland Ranch.
The accusers finally speak. It gets fucking brutal.

THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS, 2001
THE FIRST RACE

I just watched all the Fast & Furious films.


It was sad to see Paul Walker in his youth, in his prime…part of a monster that started as a single bad ass movie


The tribute to him at the end of Furious 7 was beautiful


I felt that, in my opinion, my favorites of the 8 films were as follows:


8: The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift


7: Fast & Furious


6: 2 Fast 2 Furious


5: The Fate of the Furious


4: Fast Five


3: Furious 7


2: Fast & Furious 6


1: The original…

THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS


Rest In Peace Paul Walker…
