Jason Dubray yes http://theshelfsheddingmovieshow.ca/episode/Religious_Horror Tue, 21 Sep 2021 07:00:00 +0000 http://theshelfsheddingmovieshow.ca/episode/Religious_Horror  Jason Dubray and first-time guest, Carmelita Valdez McKoy, discuss six religious horror films - some that scare them, some that entertain them, and some that have nostalgiac memories.  Carmelita brings a lot of wonderful insight into the themes of these movies from a horror sub-genre that is a favourite for both Jason and Carmelita.  Enjoy this episode! Jason Dubray yes http://theshelfsheddingmovieshow.ca/episode/Christopher_Plummer_Tribute_1 Tue, 20 Jul 2021 07:00:00 +0000 http://theshelfsheddingmovieshow.ca/episode/Christopher_Plummer_Tribute_1 In this episode, Tom Ratzlaff returns to discuss the legacy of the great Christopher Plummer.  This will be one of two episodes that discuss this extraordinary Canadian's contribution to film and theatre.  There will be spoilers in this episode, so I strongly advise you to see these movies before listening to the episode.  These plot reveals are worth your time!  Enjoy this tribute to Christopher Plummer! Jason Dubray yes http://theshelfsheddingmovieshow.ca/episode/Ennio_Morricone Tue, 29 Jun 2021 07:00:00 +0000 http://theshelfsheddingmovieshow.ca/episode/Ennio_Morricone Due to some issues with sound files, only three of six reviews survived the recording of this episode.  So, returning guest Lee Beckmann and Jason Dubray will discuss only three movies that feature music from the master composer.  The other three films will be reviewed in later episodes of the show.  Apologies for the shortened episode, and apologies to Lee for all the time he put into reviewing six films.  That said, it is always a pleasure to talk movies with Lee.  He knows his stuff, and listeners will love his take on Once Upon a Time in the West, The Untouchables, and Once Upon a Time in America.   Please continue to share this podcast with movie fans in your life! Jason Dubray yes http://theshelfsheddingmovieshow.ca/episode/Pure_80s Tue, 15 Jun 2021 07:00:00 +0000 http://theshelfsheddingmovieshow.ca/episode/Pure_80s First-time guest, and regular contributor to RankNReview, Scott Lehman and Jason Dubray discuss six wild films from the 1980s.  The 80s was definitely a decade that Scott loves and Jason wants to love, so the discussions range from nostalagia to 2021 interpretations of these movies.  What is comes down to, though, is risk-taking and entertainment.  And, for the most part, Scott and Jason both had smiles on their faces while watching (nearly) all of the films reviewed. Jason Dubray yes http://theshelfsheddingmovieshow.ca/episode/Schwarzenegger_Stallone Tue, 01 Jun 2021 07:00:00 +0000 http://theshelfsheddingmovieshow.ca/episode/Schwarzenegger_Stallone For this episode, Matt Bledsoe of the podcast Film Feast and Jason Dubray referee a battle between two action giants Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone by reviewing six movies - two starring Schwarzenegger, two starring Stallone, and two more featuring both movie stars.  We hope you enjoy this episode!

Jason Dubray yes http://theshelfsheddingmovieshow.ca/episode/93rd_Academy_Awards Fri, 23 Apr 2021 07:30:00 +0000 http://theshelfsheddingmovieshow.ca/episode/93rd_Academy_Awards Happy Oscar Weekend!  Your host, Jason Dubray, goes solo this week for a special episode to celebrate the 30th episode and the 93rd Annual Academy Awards.  In this experimental episode, Jason sheds the nominees in six major Oscar categories.  The show is deconstructed in three sections - a major award category (acting and directing awards), reveal of his personal top ten list for 2020 in short segments, and discussing the points given to the Best Picture nominees two at a time.  This episode may have the initial confusion of a Christopher Nolan screenplay, but hopefully everyone will follow it.  This is also an homage to Siskel & Ebert's If We Picked the Winners show.  Jason also dedicates this special episode to his baby niece who arrived this week.  He loves B.E. so much already!  Enjoy this episode! Jason Dubray yes http://theshelfsheddingmovieshow.ca/episode/Important_Musicals Sat, 17 Apr 2021 19:00:00 +0000 http://theshelfsheddingmovieshow.ca/episode/Important_Musicals First time guest, Ali Peters, and Jason Dubray discuss six important musical films.  Ali and Jason have worked together and collaborated on a show that was the victim of COVID-19 shut downs, so they both get personal with one review.  These films are classics, as well as the movie that first brought sound to cinema and also the movie that had the first Aftrican-American Best Actress nominee.  Enjoy this episode and continue to share it with the movie fans in your life!  Keep safe, and continue to be kind to one another!

This is the first of our series of episode where we review trailers.  So, I will not be losing a DVD or BluRay at the end of this episode.  Tom and I each picked five trailers of movies in the Western genre to review.  At the end, we combine points to determine which five movies would stay on the figurative movie shelf and the other five would be shed from the shelf. Below are the trailers, so you can view them as you listen to the podcast - I include the audio in the episode, but seeing the trailers will give you a better idea of what Tom and I are discussing.

Jason Dubray yes http://theshelfsheddingmovieshow.ca/episode/Vampires Sun, 07 Jun 2020 00:00:00 +0000 http://theshelfsheddingmovieshow.ca/episode/Vampires This episode was recorded live on Streamyard to make up for a recording that did not work with returning guest Dan Buday.  In this show, I summarize both of our perspectives on six vampire movies: Blade II, Shadow of the Vampire, Bram Stoker's Dracula, From Dusk Till Dawn, Interview with the Vampire, and The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1.  Since this episode was live, I did not edit it and did not include the usual trailers before each review.  I may add these trailers as supplemental material at a later date. Please continue to like and share the show on Facebook, Spotify and Stitcher (where it is now available for the first time!).

Please continue to share this podcast with movie fans in your life, and enjoy my new website.  Please send me feedback at shelfsheddingmovieshow@gmail.com Take care and be safe!

Jason Dubray yes http://theshelfsheddingmovieshow.ca/episode/Drive-In Tue, 05 May 2020 00:00:00 +0000 http://theshelfsheddingmovieshow.ca/episode/Drive-In Returning guest Tom Ratzlaff and I discuss the nostalgia of going to the Drive-In by reviewing five films from 1969 to 1972 - Bananas, Five Easy Pieces, MASH, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, and Play Misty for Me.  As always, there will be SPOILERS for the five films.  This was another ZOOM podcast, so I apologize for any moments where the sound quality is not as strong. Further to the episode from two weeks ago, my brother asked that I give away my DVD copy of Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves to entertain someone during this time of social isolation.  The first person who replies to this post, can have that movie.  We will arrange a safe way to get it to you.   Enjoy the show and continue to be safe!

As usual, there will be spoilers for the five movies we review. As a bonus this week, a listener can win the film that is being shed from my shelf.  The first person to message The Shelf Shedding Movie Show through Facebook Messenger or email shelfsheddingmovieshow@gmail.com will win the DVD or BluRay.  You must identify the movie that received the lowest number of points, and we will find a safe way for you to get the movie for free.

Ferrari, The Irishman, Jojo Rabbit, Joker, Little Women, Marriage Story, 1917, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, and Parasite then spread 90 points among them to determine which 5 movies deserved Best Picture nominations based on the old model of nominees in that prestigious category. I try to not spoil too much from these films.  Since I did not have a guest this week, please give me your thoughts and opinions at shelfsheddingmovieshow@gmail.com Please also share this episode, so I can find more listeners out there on the Internet.  In two weeks, there will be a more traditional show with a guest (the first family member I have had as a guest critic!)

The characters in these six movies certainly do difficult work to earn money. Returning guest, Dan Buday, and I discuss six movies about bad jobs including Session 9, Taxi Driver, Dirty Pretty Things, Modern Times, The Messenger, and Clerks. Dan and I each get to review a movie that we count among our favourites. And, once again, at the end of the show Dan comes up with a creative way that I will shed a DVD or BluRay from my movie collection. Please enjoy this show.
