Ajay Discusses Movies

The 2026 Academy Awards

ajaythakkarpod@gmail.com (Ajay Thakkar) — Tue, 17 Mar 2026 19:01:07 +0000

The 2026 Academy Awards was a near 4 hour long award show that had plenty of twist and turns. I wouldn't recommend re-watching it in its entirety. book recommendation: Salman Rushdie - Knife: Meditations After an Attempted Murder https://bookshop.org/shop/ajayandnathan

Maggie Gyllenhaal's The Bride!

ajaythakkarpod@gmail.com (Ajay Thakkar) — Thu, 12 Mar 2026 17:13:00 +0000

Despite a stellar cast and some memorable performances, Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Bride! is a tediously dull film that misses on the horror and the humor, but will eventually develop a cult following in the coming years. Book Recommendation: Jay McInerney - Bright Lights, Big City https://bookshop.org/shop/ajayandnathan

John Patton Ford's How to Make a Killing

ajaythakkarpod@gmail.com (Ajay Thakkar) — Wed, 25 Feb 2026 17:00:00 +0000

With just the right amount of campiness and adventure, How to Make a Killing is a fun dispensable film that will entertain you throughout its runtime. Book Recommendation: Nick Cave - The Death of Bunny Munro https://www.bookshop.org/shop/ajayandnathan

Emerald Fennell's Wuthering Heights

ajaythakkarpod@gmail.com (Ajay Thakkar) — Wed, 18 Feb 2026 17:00:00 +0000

An emotionless, soulless film despite a great cast, Wuthering Heights overstays its welcome with a daunting 2 hour 16 minute runtime. Check out the bookshop.org link where I recommend Vladimir Nabokov's Pale Fire. My favorite Nabokov book and one of my favorite books I've ever read.

Ajay Discusses Bob Saget's Dirty Work (1998) with Dan Doherty

ajaythakkarpod@gmail.com (Ajay Thakkar) — Wed, 17 Sep 2025 17:26:46 +0000

Bob Saget's Dirty Work stars Norm Macdonald as Mitch Weaver and Artie Lange as Sam McKenna. They are half-brothers as they start a revenge for hire business to pay off their father's surgery. It is, dare I say, one of the best comedies of the 90s that no one saw at the time but has since garnered a cult following. Nathan is out, so we got friend of the pod Dan Doherty to discuss the film. You can see Dan all over the New England area doing stand up and gambling his money away. Wow, he really took the Norm Macdonald inspiration a little too literally. Our bookstore has been updated with this week's picks. https://www.Bookshop.org/shop/ajayandnathan

Ajay and Nathan Discuss Andrew Niccol's In Time (2011) | Blast From The Past

ajaythakkarpod@gmail.com (Ajay Thakkar) — Wed, 24 Jul 2024 15:00:00 +0000

We're back discussing In Time, a film that is essentially a crossover between Logan's Run and Gattaca. Why are we discussing this film you may ask? Because the two of us don't have any interest in discussing Twisters and we are not that excited about Deadpool & Wolverine. Come watch this video as we reminisce over Justin Timberlake's career where nothing could go wrong for him in this film that had a lot of potential that has maintained a cult following ever since its initial release.

Ajay and Nathan Discuss Oz Perkins' Longlegs

ajaythakkarpod@gmail.com (Ajay Thakkar) — Wed, 17 Jul 2024 18:02:20 +0000

Nathan and I are back to discuss a new film titled Longlegs. A film that is labeled as "one of the scariest films of the decade". Does it fit that description? Or is it a well crafted film that is on par with Zodiac, Silence of the Lambs, and Se7en in which it's a great film with moments of horror that will stick with you even after you leave the theater? Check out our review to find out! It was well worth watching despite the nearly half hour of trailers that were shown before the film!

Ajay and Nathan Discuss Ti West's Maxxxine

ajaythakkarpod@gmail.com (Ajay Thakkar) — Thu, 11 Jul 2024 14:00:00 +0000

Well, we're back again this week to deliver another batch of epic goodness. We recently watched Ti West 3rd and final film of the X trilogy called Maxxine. Was it an innovative horror that will have audiences talking about the film for years to come. Or was it a forgettable schlock b movie that was underwhelming for an otherwise great franchise? Well, you'll have to watch the video to find out! Be sure to like and subscribe! Because how else will you be able to get all of this goodness?

Ajay and Nathan Discuss The Buried Secret of M Night Shyamalan

ajaythakkarpod@gmail.com (Ajay Thakkar) — Wed, 3 Jul 2024 18:17:07 +0000

In honor of M Night Shyamalan releasing his new film trap, we decided to go back through memory lane to discuss some of his lesser known works. The one we had in mind was Sci-fi's 3 hour documentary titled "The Buried Secret of M Night Shyamalan". a fake documentary that was released to market what would be his final Disney film known as The Village. Did we love it? Did we hate it? Are we supposedly discussing this knowing fully well that it will do us no favor with the Youtube algorithm? Well, all of these questions will be answered through this review! You know hot dogs get a bad rap, right?

ajaythakkarpod@gmail.com (Ajay Thakkar) — Wed, 26 Jun 2024 15:00:00 +0000

Has the Youtube algorithm made it so that up and coming youtube channels need to chase popular trends in hopes of getting a slight uptick in views and subscribers? Was that one of the reasons as to why we discussed this amazing film despite knowing that it won't get any views? Well, all of these questions won't be answered in this review!

After a near 2 week hiatus, we're back to discuss a new movie. A directorial debut that everyone has been clamoring for which is Ishana Night Shyamalan's The Watchers. Is it one of the best directorial debut films of all time? Or is it eerily similar to M Night Shyamalan in which there is a long drawn out complicated plot with bad dialogue and a twist that leaves us wanting more? Well strap on in as Nathan and I try to do our best to impersonate Red Letter Media's Mike Stoklasa and Jay Bauman to give you that answer!

Welcome back! We're here to discuss George Miller's newest Mad Max film. A film that we watched opening weekend in IMAX where there were only 3 other people in attendance. Please watch this film in the theaters. We are very afraid that the next few months will determine the future of theaters.

We're back! It was fun discussing the Sam Raimi trilogy for the past 3 weeks. But unfortunately, we must now go back to chasing the algorithm of only reviewing recently released films. What film in particular did we choose to review? Well, it's none other than the most anticipated film of the decade. Jerry Seinfeld's Unfrosted. Was this film one of the worst films of the year? Or was it a sleeper hit? Watch the review to find out! We also had Boston stand up comedian and friend of the show Dan Doherty to sit with us to discuss the film. Boy, we sure don't regret that move!

We're back! Here to discuss the final film of Sam Raimi's epic Spider-Man trilogy. A film that was once considered one of the worst comic book films ever made. Have the recent string of MCU and DC films changed that belief in moviegoer minds? Where the grand climax is a beam shot up into the sky? We certainly hope so! Overall, we both enjoyed the film despite having massive issues with it. But still listen to our review!

We're back! We're back! My back! My back! Back again to discuss Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 2. A great film that documents the struggle of the man behind the Spider-Man mask and one of the best comic book films of all time. With great cameos from Donnell Rawlings and Joey Diaz. Did we include those names in particular to curry favor with the algorithm? Maybe! We'll discuss Spider-Man 3 later this week. Don't worry, we have thoughts. Ajay and Nathan discuss Spider-Man 2, starring Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst, Alfred Molina, Rosemary Harris, J.K. Simmons. Directed by Sam Raimi.

In honor of AMC Theatres & Sony airing all of the Spider-Man films due to the disaster that was Madame Web, Nathan and I have decided to discuss Sam Raimi's first film of the Spider-Man trilogy simply titled "Spider-Man". A great superhero film that surprisingly holds up really well. No, there are no quips that undercut serious moments in this film. Thankfully, this was in the before-MCU era. Hopefully, we can review the other films in this trilogy as well. If not, then be thankful with what you have!

We're back! Did you miss us? Will the algorithm work in our favor and deliver us views for this episode? Who knows! Nathan and I discuss our thoughts on a couple of horror flicks that just dropped in the theatres. Immaculate and Late Night with the Devil. We were pleasantly surprised by these films. Don't worry, we did watch Monkey Man together in the cinema the day after we filmed this episode and will discuss it later this week!

Directed by Denis Villeneuve. No Timestamps on this pod. My apologies, but I feel as if timestamps take away from parts of the actual conversation. I was chewing my gum incessantly because I drank Mountain Dew before we taped the pod and I didn't want Nathan to experience Camp Flog Gnaw halitosis.

Dune Part Two Review | Ajay Thakkar Podcast | Episode 302

ajaythakkarpod@gmail.com (Ajay Thakkar) — Tue, 5 Mar 2024 12:00:00 +0000

In this episode, I recap the Carlos Alcaraz-Rafa Nadal match that occurred on Netflix as it took the world by storm! Just kidding. I do talk about just not the fact that it took the world by storm. I also touch on Andy Murray's comments on his future in tennis after his Dubai loss to Alex De Minaur. In news outside of tennis, I review Denis Villeneuve's new film Dune Part Two which ends one of the best sci-fi stories put to screen as well as my weekly pick which is Dan Soder's On The Road. Enjoy!
