Ya’ll seem to REALLY like this game. Chris Johnson of The Normies returns with me to do another round of this very vague, very silly game of poorly describing movies.
I’m humbled and honored to see the seats fill up before we were even starting. And I think Chris and I should really just loosey goosey this thing from here on. It’s part of the fun. Watch as I sail one of my vague hints right over his head.

In the course of out now, a majority of the Alien and Predator movies have had commentaries done. The last of the Sigourney Weaver ones to do was Alien Resurrection and it turning 25 in November of 2022 definitely helped it finally check the box off (There were a few months prior where it was up for consideration). But, this is a super fun chat on this one you need to check out.

Kiss Me Deadly has been on the Out Now bucket list for a while now. We discuss why and then dive into the 1955 noir classic that is quite punk rock for its time and genre. Age has been kind to this stylistic and highly influential pot boiler. It also features the film debut of Cloris Leachmann. A personal fave commentary of mine that we’ve done and I think one of the best!

Face/Off was at the height of powers for Nic Cage, John Travolta and John Woo.

Greg McGoon is back and we talk about the song, its depths and lyrical meanings. But we also go over the era when it came out and how its been sort of misguidedly used in other media before.

And let me tell you, we’ve been trying to do Batman and Robin for quite some time here. While, yes, the film is nobody’s favorite, this is a very nutritional conversation on it.

Yes. I save this part of the Star Wars Trilogy: Special Edition discussion for its own segment. This wild addition to Return of the Jedi in 1997 was quite the choice and one I’m not sure many took to. Oddly, while Coruscant appears at the end of the film, this may be a more accurate first peek into the kind of look and vibe the Prequel Trilogy was going to carry.

2022-02-1816 minThe Brandon Peters ShowThe Star Wars Special Edition Trilogy Turns 25 with Aaron Neuwirth
Probably not being roundly celebrated this year is the 25th birthday of The Star Wars Trilogy: Special Edition. This event celebrating the original Star Wars at 20 was a pretty big deal. Beyond the updated special effects, unseen footage and other tinkering, it was the first time many of us were able to actually see the films in a theater on the big screen.
I’m well aware that these aren’t looked back on fondly, but for me, these 3 months in 1997 were a big deal and an exciting time for myself as a Star Wars fan and a lo...

Wheatus seems an odd choice for a Satanic Panic music video to tie into Monday’s episode. But a closer glance at the genesis of the song’s lyrics and you’ll see it is incredibly relevant to the topic.
Troy Brownfield (who has seen Wheatus in concert) rejoins and we go over the song, the video, touch on the movie Loser and also dig into the actual case that brought on the inspiration for the song.
This is a lengthy one, but man is it pretty great topical conversation!

2021-11-011h 56The Brandon Peters ShowTales From The Crypt “Dig That Cat…He’s Real Gone” with Aaron Neuwirth
I let Aaron Neuwirth have his pick of the litter with these episodes, though I knew when I said I had a Richard Donner one available, he’d go for it. We take a look at one of the most interesting pieces Donner has directed as it feels much more abstract than any of his more workman-like directed film career. It also has Joey Pants and him dying lots and lots of times.

Our week-long look at the remainder of the first season of Tales From The Crypt starts today! And joining for the second episode “And All Through The House” is the person who pitched me this idea earlier this year – The AV Club’s Katie Rife! Katie is a huge EC comics nut and a lover of all things killer Santa Claus.
We have a blast going over the Robert Zemeckis directed, Fred Dekker written, Dean Cundey shot, Alan Silvestri scored, Mary Ellen Trainor starring loaded episode. Our episode is loaded as well. Katie and I enjoy talking with one...
2021-10-251h 06The Brandon Peters ShowOut Now Commentary – Unforgiven (1992)
I may be taking a week off from the show proper, but HEY – this was fittingly perfect timing as there’s still a movie to talk about. Time for the Out Now Commentary. This month, since Clint Eastwood has a new film out (Cry Macho), and since we hadn’t done a film of his yet, we’ve decided to do a commentary for his seminal apex UNFORGIVEN.

2021-09-202h 17The Brandon Peters ShowOut Now Commentary – Candyman (1992)
With a brand new take on Candyman upon us, it’s high time to revisit the original, stone cold classic. The Tony Todd starring film is one of my personal all-time favorites and argues to be one of the films that scared me more than any growing up.

An interesting follow up to The Fast and the Furious this month as we now go to the film it knocked off: Point Break. The Kathryn BIgelow action classic turns 30 this month and we look back at how stylish and wonderful her direction is and go over the legacy of the film.

2021-06-221h 57The Brandon Peters ShowOut Now Commentary – Hannibal Rising (2007)
The monthly commentary series for Out Now with Aaron & Abe concludes its journey through the cinematic adaptations of the Thomas Harris novels surrounding Hannibal Lecter. We go out on a high, with the film everyone has been eagerly awaiting us to cover! This is the best and most favoritest one of them all, yes? Gaspard Ulliel is the definitive Lecter, right? That’s what Peter Paras says, anyway.

The Brandon Peters ShowOut Now Commentary – Red Dragon (2002)
The monthly commentary series for Out Now with Aaron & Abe continues its journey through the cinematic adaptations of the Thomas Harris novels surrounding Hannibal Lecter. We now get to the same story we started with in a polished new form in that of Red Dragon. How does the Brett Ratner film hold itself to Manhunter? Is it hollow? Does it have merit? We discuss it all!

The Brandon Peters ShowClosing With A Song: “Intergalactic” by Beastie Boys
Cleansing my palate after countrying it up for a week, we spin right over to Beastie Boys. And what a perfect video to pair with doing a Godzilla movie on Monday than the Kaiju inspired “Intergalactic”. This video rules and we are here for every second of it.
Aaron Neuwirth returns and is a huge Beastie Boys fanatic and there was no way I wasn’t having him for my first dive into them.
Due to copyright and fair use laws as well as Apple and Spotify sweeps for such things, I’m not going to roll...

The Brandon Peters ShowShin Godzilla (2016) with Aaron Neuwirth
Enjoy Godzilla Vs Kong over the last week? I did! I’m following that movie up with a discussion on the 2016 Toho refresh, Shin Godzilla. Not only is it a fresh take on the series that has 30+ entries, it’s also one of the best Godzilla films ever made. Perhaps the best since the original.
This film won the Japanese academy award for Best Picture even. It was a huge box office success and was rather well liked. Having done the entire Showa era on the previous show a year ago, it was nice to catch up with...

The Brandon Peters ShowClosing With A Song: “The Thunder Rolls” by Garth Brooks
Yup, I’ve gone country! No need to discriminate. All genres made music videos good and bad. Garth Brooks was one of the biggest artists of the 90s and this might be his most significant contribution to the art form.
I’d been holding on to this one until the right guest came around, and Mike Vanderbilt was one I knew would be up for taking this one on. And he didn’t disappoint. This conversation is pretty good and honest and delves into not just the video but who Garth was to pop culture and music at the...

The monthly commentary series for Out Now with Aaron & Abe continues its journey through the cinematic adaptations of the Thomas Harris novels surrounding Hannibal Lecter.
