The Every Movie Ever! Podcast

Ben and Rob drift together and pilot ‘Pacific Rim’, Guillermo Del Toro’s homage to all things kaiju and gundam. When kaiju invade Earth through a hole in reality, it’s up to a plucky team of humans to pilot giant mecha suit Jaegers in order to cancel the apocalypse. Starring Charlie Hunnam, Idris Elba, Rinko Kikuchi, Charlie Day, Robert Kazinsky, Max Martini, and Ron Perlman ‘Pacific Rim’ was a hit at the box office but has failed to pick up the same devotion seen by the Toho or MonsterVerse franchises.

But how did Guillermo Del Toro end up directing a western action movie anyway? Where is James Cameron when you need him? And how come Ben loves kaiju, loves Neon Genesis, loves Guillermo Del Toro but has never seen this film before now!?

We've gotta take a break from the usual weekly format to have a much needed clearing of the air between each other, a word with ourselves and some news for you, our dearest regular listeners.

New listener? We love that you're here, but maybe circle back to this one after checking out one of the many excellent films in our catalogue. We wanna sit with the regulars for a sec.

We discuss the making of the show, how it used to be, how it is now, and the ways in which so much has changed for us as we've grown. Different from what you were expecting this week I'm sure, but necessary. We love ya.

Ben and Rob get steamy with ‘X’, Ti West’s first movie in his trilogy of period piece horrors starring Mia Goth. With the all-star cast rounded out by Jenna Ortega, Martin Henderson, Brittany Snow, Owen Campbell, Stephen Ure, and Scott Mescudi, ‘X’ paints the screen red when an adult movie crew rent the airBnB from hell from a couple of rural farmers.

But does the film hold up to the incredible weight of every reference and homage it crowbars into it’s short runtime? Can adult films also be cinema, as crew director RJ claims? And is ‘X’ in fact the most tightly written horror film since Jordan Peele’s ‘Get Out’? CONSUUUME to find out all this and much, much more!
