Welcome to the Pubcast. My name is Brendan O’Neill and this is my podcast where I break down my favorite classic movies in various ways: box office performance,...
Pubcast 93: Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery
Brendan is joined by Allison and Eric to break down Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery -- an underrated comedy classic from 1997. It's certainly memorable with all of its quotes and pop culture influences, but almost 30 years later, it somehow feels underappreciated. I particularly like all of the references to the 1960s James Bond movies, and it really shows off Mike Myers' particular brand of comedy that seemed to dominate the late 90s.

Pubcast 92: Kill Bill: vol. 1
Brendan is joined by Allison and Eric to break down this 2003 kung fu revenge classic from director Quentin Tarantino. This amazing, action-packed fight-fest of a movie is stuffed with dozens of references, homages and outright thefts of shots from 1970s kung fu movies and spaghetti westerns. It's great; it's fun; it's...seriously underrated.

Pubcast 91: Elf
Brendan is joined by Allison and Eric to break down this 2003 Christmas classic from John Favreau and Will Ferrell on its 20th anniversary. This comedy has all the hallmarks of those Rankin/Bass stop-motion movies with the comedy flavor of National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. The first time I saw it, I knew it would be a classic that we’d watch every year.

Pubcast 90: Temple of Doom and The Last Crusade
In a very special episode of the Pubcast, Allison and Eric join me to break down the two sequels to Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark: The Temple of Doom from 1984 and 1989’s The Last Crusade. (No, we don’t even recognize Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.)
Since we covered it in the Raiders of the Lost Ark episode, we don't do "Recasterbate" and the "How Much Are They Worth?" game, but we do break down the best and worst bit of these 80s classics.

Pubcast 89: Close Encounters of the Third Kind
Brendan is joined by Allison and Eric to break down this 1977 classic from Steven Spielberg. It's a great personal, sci-fi movie filled with nostalgia for those of us who grew up in the 1970s and 80s. The depiction of that era plus the United States' potential for paranoia and fear of government cover-ups makes for a timeless classic.
