Gael Boys

War Crime Simulator 2012

In this episode the boys walk into the heart of darkness to talk about 2012's cult classic third-person shooter 'Spec Ops: The Line.' A game that's back into public consciousness after it's recent and mysterious delisting along the viral images of different war going on around the world forces us all to question how video games are treating the subject of war as entertainment. Also an update on everyone's favorite vampire Peter Thiel, a Pennsylvania republican who made a snuff film, Israel in cope mode after the ICJ ruling and us getting nostalgic about old shooter games from our teenage years.

The Gates of Hell & Schnitzel

In this episode the boys are drained as they attempt to talk about the most disturbing and one of the best films of last year. Jonathan Glazer's 'The Zone of Interest.' A slice of life drama that just so happens to be about Auschwitz commandant Rudolf Höss and the awful things he took part in. Also we get into the importance of theatrical sound design, Glazer's very strange career as a filmmaker and the wild history of Nazis being portrayed on screen. 

Claus von Bülow's Magic Murder Juice

In this episode the boys tackle one of the more stylish and interesting movies to come out of the 90s. Barbet Schroeder's 'Reversal of Fortune.' Where Alan Dershowitz is portrayed as a moral center and Jeremy Irons is very charming as a complete psychopath. Fun stuff! Also talk of the collapse of the GOP, secret tunnels in New York City, the repulsiveness of true crime entertainment and have a good time making fun of two horrible scumbags. 

Little Moscow, Colorado

In this episode Snel joins the boys once again to talk about John Milius action movie/right wing fantasy come to life 'Red Dawn.' We also talk about China not being communist, how art can transcend politics and the culture of mid 80s America and the Reagan administration was the prefect cocktail to create such a wild and insane film.

Please Cry for Argentina

In this episode the boys start 2024 in earnest with Alan Parker's 1996 musical about the Perón power couple 'Evita." Which is less interested in making any grand political statements and more about being entertaining spectacle. With mixed results. Also talk of names on the Epstein list, comparing Madonna to Evita Perón as cultural figure, the new argentine's president's incest fetish and our mixed feelings on musical theater and musical films in general.

In this episode the boys get cozy by the fire and share their top five films of 2023. Which includes Godzilla, suicidal wrestlers, rich perverts, Russell Crowe as Mario and a whole bunch more! Also talk of Epstein lore, the return of Kevin Spacey, Trump troubles and how Hollywood is doomed unless things change.

Dying Hard for Iran–Contra

In this episode, the boys celebrate the holidays with a chill discussion on Die Hard 2. And how it's as good of a Christmas movie as the original despite it's flaws. Also talk of Trump's new problems in Colorado, Renny Harlin's strange directorial career and how liberals can't make action movies. 

Trick Dick vs. The Deep State

In this episode, Snel makes a triumphant return to show to discuss with the boys Oliver Stone's insane and kind of brilliant 1995 film 'Nixon'. Appropriate timing given Henry Kissinger's recent passing. Which we celebrate without shame. Also includes talk of the morals of the death penalty, how a new Canadian serial killer just dropped, how James Woods clearly wrote all his own dialogue and try to figure out what makes Oliver Stone and Richard Nixon tick.

Kevin Spacey: Fall from Grace

In this episode the boys tackle the career, life and crimes of Hollywood's favorite child molester Kevin Spacey. One of the more sinister character's covered in our run of black pill episodes. But still try to make it funny as we make fun of bad movies and Oscar bait. Also talk of the Argentine general election, psycho right wingers going full mask-off and have way too much fun playing film clips out of context.

Denzel Jr. & His Robot Daughter

In this mini episode the boys discuss one of 2023's sleeper hits 'The Creator.' A breath of fresh air in the Hollywood blockbuster factory. So natually no one saw it. But we break down why you should. Also talk of Ai Generated Porn, how maybe all most movies shouldn't cost the GDP of a small country and how Venom 2 is a LGBTQ+ cult classic.
Interesting stuff about the film:
