Ep. 166 of War Machine vs. War Horse: Prince (Chasing Amy vs. The Shape of Things)

On this episode we are joined by Web Bist from the podcast It's Terrific in a quest to change for love.

Episode 116 of War Machine vs. War Horse: Focus (Matchstick Men vs. The Brothers Bloom)

On this episode we attempt to con you into listening to our triple feature of con man movies, inspired by the new release FOCUS. Based on the premise of that film we look at how love blinds con men, like it blinded Will Smith by backing his son's acting career in AFTER EARTH. The double feature we have selected for this theme includes Ridley Scott's MATCHSTICK MEN and Rian Johnson's THE BROTHERS BLOOM. Guest: Peter from Hydrate Level Four and the Original Remake podcast joins us to work on a horror screenplay starring Bruce McGill.
