Batman's arch-enemy, the Joker, is getting his very own movie, and we're celebrating by looking at our all-time favorite movie villains. From wicked witches to evil space cyborg wizards to petulant octopus women, it's all about the colorful monsters who are the very best at being very bad. In Worth Mentioning we discus Abominable, Hustlers, Batman Ninja and Toy Story 4.

Our latest podcast topic comes courtesy of Patreon Not Fenimore, who's asked us to take a look at one of film history's most legendary, acclaimed trilogies: The Godfather (1972), The Godfather, Part II (1974), and The Godfather, Part III (1990). And lest you think that the internet can't possibly need another analysis of the Godfather films, there's a twist: for one of our trio (not naming names!) this will be the very first time seeing these monolithic classics. As an added bonus, we talked to Anderson Cowan of The Film Vault podcast, on the occasion of his leap into feature filmmaking with Groupers. Grab your tickets to the theatrical release while you can! In Worth Mentioning we also covered Ad Astra and My Brother's Wedding. Be sure to help us get some podcast sponsors by filling out this short survey.

Before we get too far into the fall and awards season, we place a bow on the summer by sharing our picks for the best films of Summer 2019! Find out how well we did at predicting what films we'd like (...not so well), and find out what unexpected gems we stumbled into along the way. In Worth Mentioning we cover Hustlers, It Chapter Two and Set it Up thanks to Patreon Ann Yourell!

We're recharged from our summer vacation and coming back with the 2019 edition of our annual fall preview: our picks for the releases between now and the end of the calendar year that have us the most excited, be they popcorn extravaganzas, picturesque art films, violent action pictures, or the most unfathomably evil-looking adaptation of a stage musical in the history of cinema. In Worth Mentioning, we cover Hobbs & Shaw, Ready or Not, The Peanut Butter Falcon,  and Hangover Square thanks to Patreon Zev Burrows.

Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw looks to redeem a fairly dry summer with its action-packed story of two dudes swapping sarcastic banter while constantly trying to one-up each other and generally getting on each other's nerves. In honor, we'll be sharing all of our other favorite examples of two unlikely figures being thrust together by fate to star in an action film together, quipping all the way. In Worth Mentioning we cover The Lion King and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

Disney unveils its remake of The Lion King, a film in which photorealistic lions sing and plot dynastic revolutions. To celebrate - or, for some of us, to take our minds off of the impending death of cinema - we look at all of our favorite felines of filmdom: lions and tigers and everything else down to the proud housecat. In Worth Mentioning we cover Crawl, A Woman's Face and Postcards From the Edge, thanks to Patreon Stephen Swarz.

Just in time for the new release Yesterday, director Danny Boyle and writer Richard Curtis's celebration of the enduring music of The Beatles, we are joined by the fantastic singer/songwriter Kevin Andrew Prchal, for an episode-length conversation about what the movie tells us about performance, music stardom, and the legacy of the iconic rock band. Be sure to stick around to the end of the episode to check out two hear Settling Cliches from the album "Eat Shirt and Tie" and Look Me in the Eye from the album "Love & Summer". In Worth Mentioning we cover our favorite movies of June, including: Toy Story 4, Child's Play and Rocketman (technically a May release). Thanks to Patreon Jaidan Vanmali, we also had the chance to watch All That Heaven Allows. Show Notes: 00:06:00 - Rocketman 00:12:04 - Child's Play 00:17:05 - Toy Story 4 00:29:20 - All That Heaven Allows 00:42:16 - Guest Kevin Andrew Prchal joins the show to talk Yesterday 01:50:16 - Bonus Content: Settling Cliches// Look Me in the Eye  

With both Toy Story 4 and a remake of Child's Play coming out the same weekend, did we even have a choice? We take a look at out all-time favorite dolls in the movies: from beloved child's playthings to unfathomably evil vessels for demonic energy, and everything in between. In Worth Mentioning, we discuss The Gangster, The Cop, The Devil, Chernobyl and The Holy Mountain by request of Patreon Dan Prestwich.

While the ordinary summer fare of popcorn movies keep whizzing around, next week sees the release of the more subdued Late Night. In its honor we look at the anchormen, broadcast news, faces in the crowd, and networks that have made for so many rich cinematic explorations of the movies' scrappy younger sibling. In Worth Mentioning, we cover our favorite movies from May, flicks we're most looking forward to in June, discuss the Onward trailer and review Love & Friendship by request of Patreon, R W Lovejoy.

There might not be any time quite in a human lifespan quite as beloved to filmmakers as high school: that miraculous cauldron of humiliation and horniness, when every emotion is ramped up to 110%. To celebrate the release of Booksmart, we're looking at our Top 5 High School Movies. In Worth Mentioning, we discuss John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum, Lone Wolf and Cub. In addition, thanks to Patreons CRD and Jason Dohla, we look at The Lady Eve and Raising Arizona.

Opposites attract, they say, and that's certainly true in the world of movie romances. Whether it's a world-class beauty and a pudgy schlub, a free-spirited madcap and a stuck-up prig, or any combination that always, for whatever reason, seems to end up with the woman having to settle for some asshole, we look at our favorite examples of true love striking where you'd least expect with our Top 5 Mismatched Couples. In Worth Mentioning we cover Avengers: Endgame, Shazam! and Long Day's Journey Into Night.

Mid-April is awfully early to be thinking about summer already, but Marvel and Disney have decided for the rest of us that the summer movie season begins this year on Friday, 26 April, with the release of Avengers: Endgame. To prepare, this episode will be all about the blockbuster movies to come: the superheroes, the living toys, the monsters who fit inside your pocket, the Hobbses and the Shaws. In Worth Mentioning we cover a Patreon pick from Julian DeBerry with North by Northwestas well as The Fabulous Baron Munchausen.

Who doesn't love a good practical joke? Morally decent people, that's who, but that doesn't describe us at all, which is why we're spending April Fool's Day celebrating our very favorite pranks in the movies. Come join us for all the faked dead friends and shit-flavored chocolate pies you can shake a rubber limb at! In Worth Mentioning we cover Us and Apollo 11.

Flight. Strength. Eye lasers. Weather control. Spidey-sense. Talking to fish. Talking to squirrels. Captain Marvel makes her big-screen debut this weekend, and it's got us thinking about what it must be like to have the powers of a demigod. In Worth Mentioning, we cover Patreon Paul Royar's selection of Clockers along with Paddleton and The Only Son.

The crew gets together post Oscar to chat about highlights, lowlights and upsets galore! Also, what would the Oscars be without who wore it best? In Worth Mentioning, Alita: Battle Angel and How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World make the cut for best of February.

Carrie and Rob review How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World starring Jay Baruchel, America Ferrera, Gerard Butler and Cate Blanchett. Directed by Dean DeBlois.

The fourth season of Alternate Ending begins with Carrie, Rob, and Tim sharing their picks for the best movies of 2018, as well as some other musings about the movie year that was. Plus, we have a lot of news about the changes coming to the website in the months to come. While we catch up with everything we missed last year as we finish up our lists. In Worth Mentioning, we cover Glass, both Fyre docs and Westward the Women thanks to Patreon Joy Vigil!
