Podcast: The Punch Up, Ep.24 – ‘What’s Love Got To Do With It?’

by

This week on The Punch Up podcast, the chaps get all mushy with talk of romance, love and all that good stuff in our post-Valentine’s Day ‘Sucker Punched’ special.

But it wouldn’t be The Punch Up without that dark side of love that everyone is no doubt painfully familiar with, so of course our choice of films to analyse reflects as much…

Harold & Maude (1971)
Lost In Translation (2003)
Blue Valentine (2010)

Ep.18 – ‘Andrey & The Peck’

It’s time for another Sucker Punched special on The Punch Up podcast, as this week the chaps tackle their latest theme: black & white movie classics.

And classic our three picks certainly are. Charlie Chaplin’s silent masterpiece, Modern Times (1936), leads the way, with Audrey Hepburn’s debut opposite Gregory Peck in Roman Holiday (1953) close behind. And last, but not least, a truly unique production in the form of the 1957 classic, 12 Angry Men, starring Henry Fonda.

Ep.17 – ‘An Animated Discussion’

It’s a very animated discussion this week on The Punch Up, as the chaps are joined by our very first special guest, Vancouver-based animator Haley McNamara! Providing her own unique insight, Haley takes us into the world of professional animation, revealing a few surprises along the way…

On the review front we take a look at Pixar’s latest releases, The Good Dinosaur, Sanjay’s Super Team, and Inside Out, as well as the astounding French picture, The Little Prince.

We also look forward to future animated features coming out next year, including Disney’s Zootopia, Pixar’s Finding Dory, and the it-could-be-great-could-be-meh, The Life of Pets.

Ep.16 – ‘War, THIS Is What It’s Good For’

This week on The Punch Up podcast it’s a Sucker Punched special as the chaps chat war, and how it’s really only good for making movies…

Leading the conversation are three very different flicks straight from the front line; The Big Red One (1980), starring Lee Marvin and Mark Hamill, Enemy at the Gates (2001), starring Jude Law and Rachel Weisz, and a stunning foreign language entry, the German-made, The Lives of Others (2006).
