THE FILMS OF 1987 by LexG

I review the Wahlberg-Gibson movie FATHER STU, with some bonus riffing about some of my favorite YouTube movie reviewers. Please note, this is meant in good fun with nothing but affection for anyone mentioned.

FATHER STU REVIEW by LEXG

Oscar Chat

LexG discusses the 10 movies nominated for Best Picture.

LEXG 2021 OSCAR CHAT

THE LEXG JAMES BOND PRELIMINARY LIGHTNING ROUND 

A podcast for former comic and beloved film historian LexG to just ramble on and reminisce about beloved movie favorites, with the occasional new review.

In honor of the new Halloween Kills trailer, I discuss 4 decades of Michael Myers and how he used to be more of a genial, wacky prankster.

LEXG ON MICHAEL MYERS (THE GOD OF HALLOWEEN)

A look back at the first eight entries in the FAST AND THE FURIOUS saga!

LEXG ON THE FAST AND FURIOUS SERIES

Antoine Fuqua

Antoine Fuqua deserves your respect, Renny Harlin rules, and Film Twitter is filled with morons who don’t know their stuff

LEXG ON ANTOINE FUQUA, RENNY HARLIN, ACTION CINEMA, AND FILM TWITTER

I talk about my perspective on Clint the movie star and nascent auteur from the pre-Unforgiven years

CLINT EASTWOOD LIGHTNING ROUND 1964-1990

LexG has nothing to lose so a pitch for the world’s great SKYPACK movie that will make me richer than my wildest dreams. A must.

PITCHING MY BIG MOVIE THAT WILL MAKE A BILLION DOLLARS

Little update on the LexG Podcast which isn’t quite moving in the direction I’d like. Might be time for an overhaul or on to the next thing.

STATE OF THE PODCAST ADDRESS (BOMBING)

25-year-olds watching the Criterion Collection — cool but a bit unrelatable. Maybe try having a social life before watching movies from 80 years ago

YOUNG PEOPLE WATCHING OLD TIMEY MOVIES IS A BIT WEIRD TO ME

Talking about hair, hair loss, celebrity hair, my hair loss, rugs and plugs and all things in between.

LEXG’S HAIR CHAT

I look back at Guns N’ Roses and their famous 1991 double album, including the landmark trio of videos it spawned (Don’t Cry, November Rain, Estranged.) Kind of an off-topic episode for GNR and rock fans

USE YOUR ILLUSION I AND II RETRO REVIEW AND GNR CHAT

Off-topic episode where I talk about Motley Crue, beer drinking, metal, and the ridiculous first glimpse photos of Sebastian Stan and Lily James as Tommy and Pam in a movie nobody asked for.

WHO ASKED FOR ANOTHER MOTLEY CRUE MOVIE?
