  • T2

    I love this episode. I saw T2 premiere night in So Cal. The next day,July 4th,we went to Disneyland. Everybody was talking about the movie. Every line,every ride,that was the conversation. I think everyone there had seen the movie the movie the day before. I even bought a lever action rifle in Frontierland and was walking around doing the lever load Arnold was doing. I appreciate your guys love for movies. I will be 55 this year and I’ m associating movies with times in my life. Keep up the ... more

  • Gold standard.

    Most podcasts get samey after a while but not this one. I’m bowled over by how persistently great Film 89 is. They continue to bang out great episodes, I just wish they were more frequent but I guess that’s part of why it still feels fresh. The hosts are hilarious and proper film experts without ever being pretentious. Top marks and keep it up you guys!

  • The best film podcast.

    This is the first Apple Podcast review I’ve left but couldn’t not leave my praise for this. I’ve listened to over 50 of their episodes so far having recently discovered it. Their Summer of Sequels, 1990 episode (Episode 50 I think) might be the best podcast episode I’ve ever heard. I was a teenager that year and this episode is just pure nostalgic bliss!

  • All the essentials covered.

    This podcast gets better all the time. All the classics are covered in great detail. The original Star Wars trilogy, James Bond, Lord of the Rings and most recently they did Commando, my dad’s favourite film and they nailed it. Wonderful stuff.
