Legends Podcast #390; Power of Grayskull (He-Man Documentary)

Earlier this year, the Mister Rogers documentary Won’t You Be My Neighbor? became the highest-grossing biographical documentary of all time. The film was part of the current trend toward docs featuring serious examination of entertainment properties, driven in part by crowdfunding on sites like Kickstarter. This week, we’re taking a look at a documentary on another important children’s television program, He-Man and the Masters of the Universe. The doc Power of Grayskull: The Definitive History delves into the origins of the franchise from humble toy line to pop culture phenomenon. But does the film earn the right to wield the Sword of Power, or does it feel like a cheap store-brand knock-off? (That’s right, we’re looking at you, Arak: Son of Thunder.)

Legends Podcast #389; The Longest Yard (RIP Burt Reynolds)

This week we’re paying homage to the late, great Burt Reynolds, who passed away earlier this month, with one of his most famous roles. But we’re also celebrating the start of football season with a gridiron classic. When a disgraced quarterback runs afoul of the law, he must field a team of hardened convicts to take on the abusive guards in a game behind bars and on the gridiron. The Longest Yard, directed by Hollywood legend Robert Aldrich, further cemented Burt Reynolds’ movie star status while making a killing at the box office. But does the movie, which also spawned a mega-successful remake in 2005, score a touchdown with our hosts, or should it be sent to the swamp?

Legends Podcast #388; Creed (Rocky Arc)

This week we’re back to general movie legends after a month of heists and capers, and what better place to start then with a revival of one of the most legendary movie franchises - Rocky. A decade after Rocky Balboa purportedly ended the franchise, and forty years after the original title bout, director Ryan Coogler brings Rocky’s rival’s son into the ring in Creed. Frequent Coogler collaborator Michael B. Jordan plays Adonis Creed, while Sly Stallone himself steps back into the role that made him famous, and garnered his second Oscar nomination for playing the titular pugilist. Though the film artfully blends the hero worship of Rocky the fictional boxer with that of Rocky the real-life movie star, does Creed stand toe-to-toe with the original or does it pull its punches? Let’s get ready to rumble!

Legends Podcast #387; Baby Driver (Aug-Heist)

Legends Podcast is cracking open the cinematic vault and bringing you a whole month of cons, capers, and car chases! Whether you’re a grifter, a hacker, a freelance spy, a bank robber, or a wheelman, you’ll find the big score right here on our podcast. This is Aug-Heist!

This week we’re talking about Baby Driver from 2017. This film marked the first big-screen outing for director Edgar Wright after he wrapped up his Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy, and Baby Driver tells the story of the titular reluctant wheelman, Baby, who is actually a grown-up. The odd title didn’t confuse audiences, however, as the summer release turned out to be Wright’s biggest box-office success ever. Showcasing thrilling car chases choreographed to a peppy pop-rock soundtrack, Baby Driver scored with moviegoers, but will it score with the three flavors of podcast host as we judge the final installment of Aug-Heist 2018?
