2022-10-18 18:44:14 +0000 UTCDelightful episode! Class Of 1984 is a killer movie too, starring a terrifying Tim Van Patten, featuring Roddy MacDowell!

2022-10-12 09:57:50 +0000 UTCDid Tom really say he went to a movie high on poppers ?? Was that a thing in the 70s? For straight people ??

2022-10-12 09:57:29 +0000 UTCLove this. Tom Holland is excellent. PSYCHO II is underrated, love Meg Tilly in it. But Bret, It's "Wis-ter" not "Wur-chester" :)

2022-10-11 21:24:37 +0000 UTCI’ve found myself enjoying PSYCHO 2 over the years. It’s not brilliant filmmaking but a shockingly honorable sequel to kick off the following sequels. Enjoyed this conversation very much!

2022-10-09 18:44:38 +0000 UTCI'm with Mr. Holland. I probably read more now than I ever have. We live in an era of "content" overload. Too much available to watch all at once. I've kind of tapped out of keeping up with what's new. If I do watch a series, it's something that ended at least two years ago, and I take my time with it. I don't binge watch it in week, instead I'll drag it out over a few months. Otherwise, I'm reading fiction and non-fiction or watching old movies.

2022-10-09 12:48:23 +0000 UTCWell done Bret. Pure class

2022-10-08 11:53:42 +0000 UTCFun interview. I remember watching Fright Night on VHS when I was 6 or 7. The poster alone scared me. And even at that age I thought Chris Sarandon was🔥

Nick Anderson
2022-10-07 22:56:58 +0000 UTCHaha no the 5 views is more a remark to indicate that he is shouting to the void giving nobody his air time when he could be talking about editing for Sidney Lumet with the ultimate new Hollywood appreciater like Bret

2022-10-07 14:23:19 +0000 UTC5 views! That just the kind of buzz the BEE podcast is looking for in new guests! : ). Kidding. That'd be a solid guest.

2022-10-07 14:04:18 +0000 UTCBret the editor of All that jazz, as well as Network , Alan Heim would be a perfect guest I just heard him do an interview on a YouTube channel with like 5 views- I'm sure he is LA based and easy to book
Keagan Afonso
2022-10-07 10:09:50 +0000 UTCJust delightful. Thank you for interacting so beautifully with, and recording the experiences and memories of, this generation.

Frania
2022-10-06 00:48:47 +0000 UTCNever read the book. But I thought the talking fetus was surreal, heartbreaking and beautiful.
Thumperdinck
2022-10-05 21:26:04 +0000 UTCamazing interview. fright night was one of my favorite horror movies when i was a kid. have heard psycho 2 is actually a very good/underrated sequel. great stuff. great episode. and the best reaction to the eagles question lolol
Collin Myers
2022-10-05 21:12:32 +0000 UTCDo you have a comment on the talking CGI fetus? Thought the rest of it was great, very faithful to the JCO source material.
Rebecca Luxton
2022-10-05 21:05:50 +0000 UTCThat was utterly wonderful. The bit where he asked Bret if he’d read his book and Bret replied ‘of course’ was lovely. He was delighted by that.

PETER GREER
2022-10-05 08:49:50 +0000 UTC“I’m still trying to get around to seeing Bill and Teds’Excellent Adventure” -pretty funny quip. Also, it still remains uncanny Bret’s reading habits 😅 - another fascinating Pure LA/Hollywood guest.
Seneca Garcia
2022-10-04 21:18:43 +0000 UTCLEGEND. Psycho 2 has gotta be one of the greatest horror sequels
