Mission: Impossible (1996) and Mission: Impossible II (2000)

Today it’s a Double Feature! Kicking off our discussion of the Mission: Impossible franchise, we’re discussing Mission: Impossible and Mission: Impossible II. It’s seriously impressive for a franchise to span nearly 30 years, multiple directors, and plenty of death defying stunts from lead actor Tom Cruise. We look back to the original Brian De Palma film to see the roots of the franchise, and we discuss the much more silly and ridiculous John Woo entry.

The Straight Story (1999)

We continue with the filmography of David Lynch by exploring a lesser known classic; The Straight Story is a movie that has none of the typical hallmarks of a Lynch film, but nonetheless has the essential DNA of what is at the center of many of his movies. The Straight Story is (as its name implies) a very straightforward story about an elderly man longing to see his brother before it’s too late. Starring Richard Farnsworth as the sweet and humble Alvin Straight on his journey to reconcile with his brother.

Blue Velvet (1986)

This week we continue our discussion of David Lynch by exploring the strange world of Blue Velvet (1986). The film contrasts the happy-go-lucky and relatively ordinary world of Lumbertown USA with the seedy underbelly brewing underneath its surface. Kyle MacLachlan plays Jeffrey Beaumont, a young man whose curiosity leads to disturbing revelations, only to be thrust right into the middle of the mystery he’s investigating.

Dune (1984)

Isaac, Juzo, and Cameron return to discuss David Lynch's Dune (1984), an ambitious ane infamous adaptation of Frank Herbert's sci-fi epic. Starring Kyle MacLachlan as Paul Atreides, the film blends interesting visuals with Lynch’s signature style, making it a perplexing and divisive entry in the Dune legacy. We compare Lynch’s take to Denis Villeneuve’s Dune: Part One (2021) and Dune: Part Two (2024), exploring how each filmmaker approaches Herbert’s expansive universe. Don’t miss this continued acesion into Lynch’s cinematic mark!
