  • Pointy Hat Cast 041 - The Tomorrow War
    Aug 13 2021
    Episode Notes

    The Pointy Hat Cast is a movie podcast. I guess you could call it a movie review podcast. We just like movies of all types, genres, and from all time periods and talking about them!

    Hosts: Barry, Sam

    The Tomorrow War (2021): It was directed by Chris McKay. The screenplay was written by Zach Dean. It stars Chris Pratt, Yvonne Strahovski, J.K. Simmons, Betty Gilpin, Sam Richardson,  and many more. Currently as of this podcast, it has a rotten tomatoes score of 52% for critics, and 78% for audience.

    The Tomorrow War is probably one of the worst time travel movies I have ever seen. It is probably one of the worst action movies I have ever seen as well. It fails on both fronts mainly due to the fact that the movie tries very hard to explain how the time travel mechanic works and gives the audience too much time to realize that none of it really makes sense.

    Why do they have holo sights if no one uses them?! Will we have to readjust our rating scale because of the new Suicide Squad movie?! Find out next time, on the Pointy Hat Cast!

  • Pointy Hat Cast 040 - Wonder Woman 1984

    Episode Notes

    The Pointy Hat Cast is a movie podcast. I guess you could call it a movie review podcast. We just like movies of all types, genres, and from all time periods and talking about them!

    Hosts: Barry, Isaiah, Nate, Sam

    Wonder Woman 1984 (2020): It was directed by Patty Jenkins. The screenplay was written by Patty Jenkins, Geoff Johns, and Dave Callaham. It stars Gal Gadot, Chris Pine, Kristen Wiig, Pedro Pascal, and many more.

    Wonder Woman 1984 is a horrible mess of a film where it tried to tackle too many different things and ended up missing the mark for almost everything. It couldn't make up its mind on whether or not it's a kid's film or not, and even small things like sticking to a set color palette. It also misses an opportunity to delve into the theme of the strength of the individual based on truth by comparing Kristen Wig's Cheetah to Gal Godot's Wonder Woman. At least it was better than Scorpion King...or was it?

    Mail Bag: Did Wonder Woman commit a heinous crime?

  • Pointy Hat Cast 039 - Bill & Ted Face the Music

    Episode Notes

    The Pointy Hat Cast is a movie podcast. I guess you could call it a movie review podcast. We just like movies of all types, genres, and from all time periods and talking about them!

    Hosts: Barry, Sam

    Topic: Bill & Ted: Face the Music (2020) It was directed by Dean Parisot. The screenplay was written by Chris Matheson and Ed Solomon. It stars Keanu Reeves, Alex Winter, Kristen Schaal, Samara Weaving, Brigette Lundy-Paine, William Sadler, Anthony Carrigan, and many more.

    Bill & Ted: Face the Music feels like it took the best parts of Excellent Adventure and Bogus Journey and combined them together into a modernized package that still maintains the incredibly wholesome, pure, and funny spirit of the original movies. There is really no sense of cynicism throughout the whole film and the positive, can do attitude is something that resonates with what we are lacking for the current times.

    Mail Bag: Which movie did time travel the best?
