A man... of few words. A man... with a poncho. A man... with no name. Although perhaps he does have a name and it's Joe but that's not important. We're doing the Dollars Trilogy aka The Man With No Name Trilogy, a series of spaghetti westerns directed by master filmmaker Sergio Leone and starring the god Clint Eastwood. Before we talk about the film we also discuss what we've been watching recently: THE GORGE, WOMAN OF THE HOUR, and 47 RONIN. Ben is back from Halifax and Alex is back from Mexico. How were their trips? Acceptable! Join us next week for the 2nd instalment in the Dollars Trilogy, FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE. How many dollars more? You'll have to listen to find out, you should know that by now! You can follow The Franchisees on Twitter and Instagram @thefranchisees or email us at thefranchiseespod@gmail.com…

This episode is dedicated to Forky. We're back with the fourth instalment of the TOY STORY franchise, the appropriately titled TOY STORY 4. 2019 was a lifetime ago, almost long enough to ask the question "does this movie hold up?" Yes, it's pretty good! Ben is a little "turnt up" in this episode so be warned! Join us next week for the cash-grab conclusion of the TOY STORY franchise, LIGHTYEAR.

Toy Story 3 (2010) 1:31:24

1:31:24

We're back with the beloved third entry in the TOY STORY franchise. Alex and Ben were very close to Andy's age when they first saw the film... needless to say, it hit them like a ton of bricks. Will this poignant and beautiful film still pull on their now-jaded heartstrings? At least one of them, yes! We also talk about Pixar's stellar run and eventual decline, the possible real-life inspiration for Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear (John Lasseter), the Super Bowl, and a few other films we've been watching recently. Join us next week for TOY STORY 4, film that has to justify its existence and does a pretty good job. Follow us @thefranchisees on Instagram and Twitter and email us at thefranchiseespod@gmail.com…

Toy Story 2 (1999) (with Valerie Keaton) 1:36:43

1:36:43

1999 was a legendary, leeeggggendary year for cinema. And animation is cinema, no matter what those film snobs tell you! Please, please for the love of god accept that animation is cinema so that Guillermo del Toro can take a break. The subject this week is TOY STORY 2, what some consider one of the greatest sequels of all time. Is it true? Does it hold up? Is it on the same level as the original? We're joined by special guest/friend of the pod Valerie Keaton to help us find out. We also talk Tim Heidecker, HARD TRUTHS, Doug Benson, and so much more. You can follow Valerie on Twitter @StealingValerie and on Letterboxd @ValerieKeaton. She also has a substack @valeriekeaton.

It's our 30th Franchise! Wow, time sure does fly when you're having fun... and there's nothing more fun than toys. What if these toys had a story of their own? Well you're in luck. Back in 1995, future-disgraced animator John Lasseter and company invented computers and used those computers to invent animation resulting in the first animated feature length computer animated feature film, TOY STORY. You know it, you love it, you've seen it. And we're podcasting about it I guess. We also talk about the Timmy 'Bob' Dylan biopic A COMPLETE UNKNOWN, snuff videos, Nicolae Ceaușescu, and beat boxing. Join us next week for the appropriately named sequel TOY STORY 2! Follow us @thefranchisees on Instagram and Twitter and email us at thefranchiseespod@gmail.com…

Mick Travis is back in O LUCKY MAN!, at least some version of Mick Travis. Join him on an epic journey through the hellish and bizarre landscape of 70s Britain. From coffee salesman to superstar, and many stops along the way. This is a sprawling state-of-the-nation film akin to SOUTHLAND TALES or maybe I'm just making that comparison to get you to watch it, it's hard to tell. We also take a look at what appear to be some pretty boring Oscar nominations and talk about some other movies we've been watching. Join us next for the conclusion of Lindsay Anderson's MickTril, BRITANNIA HOSPITAL Follow us @thefranchisees on Instagram and Twitter and email us at thefranchiseespod@gmail.com…

Home Alone 4 (2002)// 9/11 1:11:14

för 12 weeks sedan1:11:14

1:11:14

Released in the shadow of America's darkest hour, HOME ALONE 4 teaches us all to live again, to laugh again, to love again. Do dark hours have shadows? Only time will tell. New kid again, this is definitively not "the boy" but he is playing a boy we are all familiar with: Kevin McCallister. Some things have changed (his parents are divorced) while some things remain the same (he ends up home alone with burglars again) This is a divisive film for us on this episode... is it a bad movie? ... or is it the movie that healed a nation? If HOME ALONE 3 inadvertently caused 9/11... does HOME ALONE 4 fix it? It does not, it cannot... and yet it tries all the same. Join us next week for another made-for-television sequel HOME ALONE: THE HOLIDAY HEIST. Even more made-for-TV than this one if you can believe it. Sir Malcolm McDowell stars.
