August / Sept 2025 - Newsletter

 

  

August-Sept 2025 Newsletter 

Intro:

 

Here we are our second Newsletter for the summer and it looks like fall is right around the corner.  For our devoted fans we hope you have enjoyed the summer and our big blockbuster summer of reviews.  I am hoping that we roll into fall with our Halloween Horror Month approaching. We are lining up a few guests to join us this year in hopes to make our reviews both fun and educational.  

Current Episodes:  

1. Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and Return of the King are the episodes that we have in production right now.    We should be dropping those in the coming weeks.  Expect these to be long form episodes as the guys had a lot to discuss on these films.  

Upcoming Episodes:  

1. Casino  -  We are dipping our toe into the world of Martin Scorsese and gangsters while we celebrate another anniversary film . Thirty years of Casino and we have an old guest lined up that we haven’t had in the studio for sometime.  Looking forward to discussing another film with our good friend Geoff. 

2. Frankenstein -  The start of our Horror Halloween Month.  We are going back to the original Boris Karloff film with a new guest from the RealReel podcast, Joshua.   We are interested in seeing and hearing what his insights are for this Universal horror film.

3. Night of the Hunter -  Robert Mitchum and a western, something we haven’t discussed for a few months is a good classic western film.  It will be interesting to discuss this film that is officially 70 years old this year.  Yes we are continuing our Anniversary films with this black and white classic. 

 

That then brings us to two weeks that we are still looking to fill as Episode 74 and 75 will hopefully be something fun and extravagant as we reach another milestone.

That will also lead us into September where we are recording episodes for our October Halloween Episodes.  We have some more guests lined up as we dive into some classic Universal monsters.   We will tell you more about that in the next Newsletter. 

Director of the Month-   

As we have had no suggestions or insights into this we are going to put it on the back burner and see if anyone is interested in discussing Directors in an up coming episode..  Send us your opinion at mamreviewpodcast@gmail.com

Advertising Space-

I want to take this time to mention that we are now offering Ad space within our shows to friends and fellow podcasters to help spread the word on shows and services.  With the release of our Back to the future episode we included an Ad for our friends at Podedit.com .  So if you know anyone in the industry of podcasting that would like to push out a promo in one of our episodes please email us and we can hopefully set something up.

June / July 2025 - Newsletter

  

June-July 2025 Newsletter 

Intro: 

Well it’s back!  Our newsletter.  Yes we have been rather busy here at Middle Age Movie Reviews, between vacations and scheduling conflicts we have been moving around releases for our regular episodes.   For our devoted fans we are sorry for the sporadic nature of the last few weeks.  We are hoping to get on a more regular schedule again in the coming months.

Current Episodes:  

Currently what has been recorded and in the process of editing 

1. Naked Gun, Jaws, and a Re-issue of Akira were our episodes for this month.   Jaws being the biggest push with its big 50th Anniversary this month.  We had a great time discussing the film with Courtney from Classics with Courtney. This also coincided with Matt’s big family vacation down to Florida where he and his family did check out Universal Studios and got a picture in front of Bruce.

So needless to say that is partially why we have been behind on getting out episodes. 

Upcoming Episodes:  

1. BladeRunner - June 29th or July 5th  at 9pm - This episode is still in editing, hoping to have it released on the 29th of June but with current work schedules it looks like it might be a July 5th release.  We had  Jeff S. Join us for this one and we really enjoyed talking about the film with him. 

2. Total Recall  -  July 5th Possibly the 12th  - This episode has been recorded, but hasn’t been touched yet with editing as Tim is currently out of town as well and Matt is focused on editing Blade Runner right now.  

3. RoboCop - Middle of July   - Part two of a Paul Veerhoven block of movies.  Joey and Matt are chatting it up with the Grawlix Gang of Randal, Jesse, and Melaine on June 26th.  We haven’t recorded this yet at the time of this writing but we are looking forward to discussing this film with our returning guests. 

4. Mad Max - Middle of July  - This is a first for our show as we have the Aussies coming by our studio to discuss this Australian piece of golden filmmaking.  I know we are excited to get their insights on this film and hopefully we can get some idea of what the filmmaking industry looks like in Australia from some Australians. o far we have to pick this episodes movie 

5. Back to the future - End of July  -  We are capping off our big summer films with a guest, Andres the Pop Culture guy will be joining us to discuss the family favorite Back To the Future on its 40th anniversary.  Can’t wait to see this movie again.  

Director of the Month-   

Looking to bring this back as a social media promotion for our podcasts.  Matt is currently looking at doing this as a poll on facebook instead of a google forum.  Would love any insights from our listeners and followers as to what they may or may not like about polls.  Send us your opinion at mamreviewpodcast@gmail.com
