June 11, 1775: The Battle of Machias
Full Disclosure: I have no idea whether I pronounced “Machias” correctly. We’ll all have to live with that one, I suppose. The Battle of Machias was not exactly one of epic proportions. It was a couple of boats chasing after a couple of other boats, and one boat got away but the other one managed […] The post June 11, 1775: The Battle of Machias appeared first on 250 and Counting.

Joker: Ζώντας σε μια ΚΕΝΩΝΙΑ
Το κακό... ΤΡΙΤΩΣΕ! Η επιστροφή μας είναι γεγονός! Η τρίτη μας σεζόν δεν θα μπορούσε παρά να ξεκινήσει με ένα μεγάλο πάρτι. Ένα πάρτι με αστειάρες, διλήμματα και επικούς διαξιφισμούς. "Και ποιός θα επιληφθεί της ψυχαγωγίας", θα ρωτήσετε εύλογα; "Μα ποιός καλύτερος από έναν κλόουν", θα απαντήσει απολύτως κανένας. Μα σε κάθε περίπτωση, αυτός ο συγκεκριμένος κλόουν με το φονικό χαμόγελο δεν περιμένει προσκλήσεις για να εμφανιστεί! Ποιός σκουντούσε τον διπλανό του από αγαλλίαση στο σινεμά και ποιός παραμένει αμετανόητος πληρωμένος Μαρβελάκιας; Ποιός κινδυνεύει να μετατραπεί στον επόμενο Άρθουρ Φλεκ και ποιός μένει ανικανοποίητος από την... κωμική ανεπάρκεια του σκηνοθέτη; Σε πόσες από τις προβλέψεις μας για το sequel πέσαμε μέσα και πόση σχέση έχει με όλα αυτά ο Μπόρατ, ο μίστερ Μπούτιας και ο Μάρτιν Σκορτσέζε; Το παρόν περιέχει έλλειψη αναφορών σε Φρανκ Σινάτρα, και ντροπή μας! Οι απαντήσεις είναι ένα κλικ μακριά και εσείς ξεροσταλιάζετε; Κάντε αυτό που ονειρευόσασταν από την πρώτη φορά που πατήσατε σε προποτζίδικο. ΠΙΑΣΤΕ ΤΟ ΤΖΟΚΕΡ ΠΑΙΔΙΑ, ΠΙΑΣΤΕ ΤΟ ΤΖΟΚΕΡ!

ΠΡΙΝ ΑΠΟ ΠΟΛΥ ΠΟΛΥ ΚΑΙΡΟ ΣΕ ΕΝΑΝ ΓΑΛΑΞΙΑ ΠΟΛΥ ΚΟΝΤΙΝΟ... (cue the legendary John Williams' music) Filmtatoi Wars: Επιστροφές-Καταστροφές Ο πλανήτης σε απελπισία! Τα χρόνια έχουν περάσει από την εποχή που δύο Φίλμτατοι διασταύρωσαν τα φωτόσπαθά τους τελευταία φορά κρίνοντας τη μοίρα ολόκληρου του podcast τους, σε ένα επεισόδιο πολεμικών διαθέσεων. Always two there are, a master and an apprentice και οι δύο τους για ακόμα μια φορά μονομαχούν για το θρόνο του Αυτοκράτορα. Ο ΚΩΝΣΤΑΝΤΙΝΟΣ ενισχυμένος από την αόρατη Δύναμη της νοσταλγίας υπερασπίζεται παθιασμένα τις ταινίες που αγάπησε από παιδί, καβαλάει το δικό του Μιλένιουμ Φάλκον και δίνει απλόχερα τις μεγαλύτερες βαθμολογίες του. Ο ΑΛΚΗΣ με νύχια και με δόντια τον κρατάει προσγειωμένο στο έδαφος, ατενίζοντας συνολικά όλο το θρυλικό franchise από μια τεχνοκρατική και σύγχρονη σκοπιά. Απόψεις θα συγκλίνουν, φιλίες θα δοκιμαστούν και οι απαντήσεις περάσουν για πάντα στην ιστορία, ιδίως δε η παρακάτω: ΠΟΣΑ ΑΠΑΡΑΔΕΚΤΑ ΛΟΓΟΠΑΙΓΝΙΑ ΜΠΟΡΟΥΝ ΝΑ ΧΩΡΕΣΟΥΝ ΣΕ ΕΝΑ ΕΠΕΙΣΟΔΙΟ ΦΙΛΜΤΑΤΩΝ; Άκουσε το-αγάπησε το-νομιμοποίησέ το και εκτόξευσέ το στα αστέρια όπως μόνο εσύ μπορείς!

Το αγαπημένο σας αργοπορημένο podcast επανέρχεται δυναμικά με δύο ταινίες που συζητήθηκαν εντόνως! ΟΡΘΕΣ ΠΡΟΒΛΕΨΕΙΣ ΓΙΑ ΤΑ ΟΣΚΑΡ, ΠΟΙΟΤΙΚΑ ΑΣΤΕΙΑ, ΑΠΥΘΜΕΝΗ ΚΙΝΗΜΑΤΟΓΡΑΦΙΚΗ ΣΟΦΙΑ είναι μόνο λίγα από τα πράγματα που δεν εμφανίστηκαν εντός του επεισοδίου. Υπήρξαν όμως: αναφορές σε αγαπημένα πρόσωπα από το παρελθόν, αδυσώπητες βαθμολογήσεις, σοβαρότητα μετρημένη με το σταγονόμετρο και πολύ πολύ γκρικ μεράκι και φιλότιμο. Ποιά ήταν η πιο παράξενη στιγμή των δύο επιτυχημένων ταινιών; Ποιός έβαλε νερό στο κρασί του αγγίζοντας για πρώτη φορά ζητήματα που συνήθως προσπερνούσε; Ποιός έσκασε αδιάβαστος για ηχογράφηση και έφυγε γεμάτος γνώσεις με το κεφάλι του γεμάτο επιτυχίες του Σάκη του Ρουβά; Τί σχέση έχουν με όλα αυτά η Υπουργός Πολιτισμού μας και ο Τζόκερ; Πωπω τόσες ερωτήσεις και οι απαντήσεις να είναι ΤΟΣΟ κοντά, ΜΑ ΕΙΝΑΙ ΑΜΑΡΤΙΑ ΝΑ ΜΗΝ ΤΙΣ ΔΙΕΚΔΙΚΗΣΕΤΕ. Μη συγκρατιέστε άλλο! Προσποιηθείτε πώς οι απαντήσεις είναι το Όσκαρ και εσείς είστε ο Yorgos της καρδιάς μας, πατήστε play και διεκδικήστε τις μέχρι τελικής πτώσεως!

Οι ωραίοι έχουν χρέη: A Filmtatoi 2023 recap
ΚΙ ΟΜΩΣ ΔΕΝ ΕΙΝΑΙ ΨΕΜΑ, Η ΕΠΙΣΤΡΟΦΗ ΜΑΣ ΕΙΝΑΙ ΓΕΓΟΝΟΣ! Μετά από μία χρονιά γεμάτη ανατροπές και ένα μεγάλο διάλειμμα για να φορτίσουμε τις μπαταρίες μας με νέες ταινίες και εμπειρίες, οι Φίλμτατοι είματε και πάλι στα ακουστικά σας για ακόμα περισσότερες έμπιστες αναλύσεις, απαράδεκτα αστεία, σκληροπυρηνικές κριτικές και μπόλικη γκρίνια. Για ποιά ταινία όλα αυτά; Μα για μια ολόκληρη κινηματογραφική χρονιά που τα άξιζε μέχρι τελικής πτώσεως! Ποιός εμπιστεύεται τα Μικιμάο για ουσιώδεις ανθρώπινες αφηγήσεις και ποιός εμπιστεύεται με κλειστά μάτια 3,5 ώρες με τον Μάρτιν Σκορσέζε και ζητάει και περίσσευμα; Τί θέσεις κατακτά το Barbenheimer, ο Τομ Κρουζ και ένας ερωτύλος πολέμαρχος του 19ου αιώνα; Τι σχέση έχουν με όλα αυτά ο Εμανουέλ Μακρόν και η Olivia Rodrigo; Οι απαντήσεις όχι απλά είναι ένα κλικ μακριά, αλλά σας τις χρωστάμε εδώ και καιρό. Τις χρωστάτε εσείς στον εαυτό σας εδώ και καιρό. Οι ωραίοι έχουν χρέη και ήρθε η ώρα να τα αποπληρώσουν! ΑΚΟΥΣΕ ΤΟ - ΑΓΑΠΗΣΕ ΤΟ - ΝΟΜΙΜΟΠΟΙΗΣΕ ΤΟ

Oppenheimer: ένα εκρηκτικό pod
The world will remember this day! Στα αποκαϊδια του επεισοδίου για τη Barbie, που άφησε πίσω τον ανταγωνισμό κατακτώντας ακόμα μια σημαντική πρωτιά μετά την εισπρακτική επιτυχία της, αναδύεται το αντίπαλο δέος. Ο Christopher Nolan, σκηνοθέτης που ευνοεί τις ακραίες απόψεις περνάει επιτέλους από το μικροσκόπιο των Φιλμτατων με μια ταινία που κάνει... "μπαμ". Βιογραφικες ταινίες και αφηγηματικό ενδιαφέρον: είναι καθόλου συμβατές σαν έννοιες; Ποιες είναι οι καλύτερες ταινίες του Νόλαν έως σημερα και με ποιες καταφέρνει να μοιάσει η καινούρια του; Ποια είναι τα μεγάλα μυστικα που κρυβονται στην IMAX εκδοχή της ταινίας; Και τι σχέση έχει τελοσπαντων με όλα αυτα "Το ημερολόγιο ενός σπασίκλα"; Now we are become Filmtatoi, the destroyers of boredom! Κάνε τον Oppie περήφανο και διεκδίκησε τις απαντήσεις! Άκουσε το - αγάπησε το - νομιμοποίησε το
