The world will forever remember this year, as Christopher Nolan wrote and directed his biopic and WW2 masterpiece OPPENHEIMER (2023) with an ensemble cast of  Cillian Murphy, Robert Downey Jr, Emily Blunt, Florence Pugh, Matt Damon, Kenneth Baranagh and Rami Malek. We knew the world would not be the same after watching the story of the father of the atomic bomb. We witnessed the live action of the trinity test and the consequences of Oppenheimer's deadly toy, making us leave the theatre silence. Our ears were captured by the amazing work of Ludwig Göransson. And let's not forget the non-linear narrative Nolan did having both colors and black & white, from the perspectives of Strauss and Oppenheimer. 

Who would've thought I'd break down another Robert Eggers film? Not me. But this time I loved it. The Northman (1994) is a revenge viking epic with Aleksander Skarsgård as Amleth the viking whose fate is set to avenge his father after being killed by his uncle Fjolnir, and save his mother. We talk it all with the story, the deep themes, Norse mythology, and being the sole inspiration of Shakespeare's Hamlet, which led to the Lion King (1994).

It's been seven months since our last episode of this podcast. This movie is film for the season premiere of Films Unchained, as we're going to break down SE7EN (1995). 7 Deadly Sins with 7 Victims in 7 Days. That’s all it takes to make this story and for David Fincher to direct as he likes to call Se7en the 'mediation of evil.' Everything about it, such as the 7 deadly sins, the psychology of John Doe, and the alternative endings proposed for this story. Welcome to Season 3 of Films Unchained.

Season finale is exploring the good, the bad, and the ugly of chasing the white rabbit, and being as mad as a hatter.It’s time we break down the dark side of ALICE IN WONDERLAND - Both 1951 Disney and Tim Burton's Live Action 2010. From the origin of the story with the author Lewis Carroll and his controversies with Alice Liddell to the elements of horror used in wrestling. This season finale is going to be full of curiosity. As David would say, falling down the DARK RABBIT HOLE!  1960s music by Dar Golan - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_cMGH7-XTU Pistachio Films LLC for the film projection sound effects - https://www.youtube.com/user/PistachioFilmsLLC

Silence of The Lambs (1991) was a masterpiece. But HANNIBAL (2001) sucked and failed to exceed expectations, especially when directed by Ridley Scott. Also, Julian Moore was bad as Clarice Starling. In this episode, we break down what went wrong with the film, before I present my version of the story on what HANNIBAL (2001) could have been, and of course the good parts of the film will be kept. Got it? Okey dokey..

Our last episode of 2022 will discuss how cinema is redeemed this year after suffering from the awful pandemic for the past 2 years. Streaming services have been on the rise with their subscriptions and theatres suffered from the pandemic in bringing people watching the film in the big screen. The discussion of this episode breaks down the films I selected that brought cinema back to its feet. This includes the features of the movies, production and box office. We then conclude this episode on what 2023 has to offer with many films coming up, especially Christopher Nolan's OPPENHEIMER (2023). Potential SPOILERS for those who haven't watched some (if not all) films to be discussed here. Hence the title of this episode “CINEMA IS BACK”
