Guest Appearance: “American Gangster” vs. “Blade Runner” with Film vs. Film Podcast

Spoilers:

Movie Bonerz Episode Forward:

We were so excited to be invited back for our second appearance on the Film vs. Film podcast, though unfortunately Jake couldn’t make it with a new baby still.  He does pick our entry though and then force Dustin to defend it in the debate.  Dustin does a fantastic job, and this is still very fully a Movie Bonerz bonus appearance.  We didn’t want to pick the obvious Gladiator and Alien, so we primarily debated between American Gangster, which is heavily underrated despite Jay-Z having made a full concept album for it, and Black Hawk Down which also stands out as a unique entry in his catalog.  So enjoy, follow Film vs. Film Podcast on the social medias, and let us know what your thoughts are while listening to the two-part episode.

FILM vs FILM Episode description:

This episode as, yep you guessed it, Ridley Scott keeps churring them out. His latest is the highly anticipated sequel to his masterpiece from 2000, Gladiator, creativity titled, Gladiator, 2. So of course will be ticking off yet more films of the great mans filmography, for our very own sequel episode on Ridley Scott. Joining me to discuss all things Ridders is one half of the Movie Bonerz, in the form of Dustin.

Warning we will be talking SPOILERS

The guests turn to go first, and Dustin is frankly going for a forgotten masterpiece, Ridley Scotts take on a gangster film, American Gangster. On this one we talk about, how good the two leader are, Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe, and also how good some of acting is in very small roles by great actors who would normally lead their own movie. We talk about the very subtle direction from Ridley Scott presenting these two very different characters in Frank Lucas and Richie Roberts. Plus we talk about Turkey Sandwiches. IMDB page
