2024-09-26 18:47:43 +0000 UTCIs it Coppola or Cappola?

2024-01-19 15:20:45 +0000 UTCApocalypse Now is not a masterpiece?? It is the greatest film ever made and that's a fact...oh wait, it's too genuinely intellectual for Wasson; WASSON IS NOT A THOUGHTFUL, INTELLECTUAL WRITER??? 😱😱😱😂😂😂...ahhh, guess he's just a semi-retarded geekboy 😂 go back to your generic Godfather, Wasson, and go fuck yourself...as usual...anyway, he's an adorable, geeky fanboy...who gives into pseudo intellectual horseshit...that's why he n' Bret get along so well 😂😂

2023-12-24 01:22:45 +0000 UTCCoppola had this 60s idea that established institutions were out to get you, but they’re not that way. So says Sam Wasson.

2023-12-24 01:14:05 +0000 UTCI Count it….as one of the best films of all time.

2023-12-21 14:57:33 +0000 UTCFFC has 5 greats if you, um, count Dracula. He belongs on the Mt. Rushmore of directors just for Godfather thru Apocalypse. That run was so absurdly great, it was like the movie gods confined him back down to earth for the remainder of career.

2023-12-21 00:42:08 +0000 UTCif Sam even dreams about hosting again he better wake up and apologize! :P

2023-12-20 23:44:46 +0000 UTCMaybe all of this is in Wasson’s book - which I can’t wait to read over the holidays. Big Goodbye was a masterpiece.

2023-12-20 23:43:45 +0000 UTCFun fact: Dennis Jakob is the guy whose rooftop in Venice Beach Jim Morrison slept on in summer ‘65 when he, under the influence of then-legal LSD / Jakob’s grass, wrote most of the early Doors’ songs. Also, Jakob later claimed it was his suggestion that Coppola use Conrad’s Heart of Darkness as a template for Apocalypse Now.

2023-12-20 23:41:26 +0000 UTCLooking forward to this tomorrow morning. It’s a good book, kinda overcooked but with lots of energy. The Quentin interviews were great. Seems like the podcast is back on track and yes 5mins with Sam and ms camp were more than enough. Name dropping boredom. But check out- The Zone of Interest, May December, Poor Things, The Holdovers. Cinema is not over.

2023-12-19 17:23:28 +0000 UTCLove Sam’s books, but I hope he offers an apology to your paid listeners for the total fiasco of an episode he guest-hosted.
