Movie Mindset Schedule, Part 2
Here's our lineup for the second half of Movie Mindset season 1. Hope everyone following along is enjoying the lineup Will & Hesse have curated. For future installments we might add some info about where the films are available for streaming/viewing, but also we trust you all to manage your own media hunting.
As for future programming, we've discussed doing a little run of horror Movie Mindset in the fall, as well as future full seasons late this year or early next. So, feel free to drop any requests or suggestions in the comments here.
See you at the movies!

I would like to suggest a Warren Oates special. That way you can discuss two of my favourite films: two lane blacktop and Bring me the head of Alfredo Garcia! 😬
absolutely loving the series. wonderful balance of genres, eras, themes, etc., and an even better balance btw movies i love and movies i've never seen horror movie mindset would be killer <3
I said it once and I'll say it again, Haneke, 7th continent
Absolutely should do a Haneke episode. Hell could do a couple episodes as theres a lot to talk about with his work.
Would love to see a Michael Mann double bill
it would be so cool if u did an episode on alexander payne (nebraska and election), the wachowski sisters (speed racer and bound), and cronenberg (crash and a history of violence, but honestly they all rule so u can't go wrong)
You should do a double on post 9/11 Spike. 25th Hour & She Hate Me. Please please please. For horror, Texas Chainsaw Massacre is an absolute must.
Do a 90s or chick flick theme episode, also holiday editions is a good idea
Bound!
I am sooo excited to hear you talk about Kiyoshi Kurosawa. Between Cure and Mccabe and Mrs. Miller, you'll have covered two of my (private non-objective) top 5, so you guys are really hitting on all my lonely obsessions. BTW, if you haven't seen Wife of a Spy, please do! It's Kurosawa's best movie in years.
Werner Herzog - The Actor ...?
Coen brothers ep please and thank u
I'd fucking love to see a Toxic Avenger movie mindset epside.
Interested on seeing you do “Lawerence of Arabia” touching on empire and doing just a wee bit of the history.
Have you tried watching it recently? Kinda painful I thought, besides some of the cinematography
Anyone else want them to do Ozu or am I just being pretentious?
Ozu with Bresson and Dreyer. Then you have the Trinity of "Transcendental Style in Film" that Paul Schrader adores.
You should consider doing DIRTY HARRY as that propelled Charles Bronson into #VigalanteSuperstardom…especially considering what’s going on now.
stay tuned for this Wednesday...
I vote for 60"s psychedelic comedies such as "The Magic Christian," "I Love You Alice B Toklas," and the original "Casino Royale."
Would I be forgiven in observing that the movies on the pod seem to mostly be curated by Will? That although Hesse is well versed and an astute contributor, esp w/r/t cinematography and lore, that I’d like to know more about their influences?
Could y'all get Zizek on? He seems sufficiently movie poisoned for the pod.
Zizek doesn’t actually watch movies he just rambles about how they present abstracted Lacanian ideological representations that don’t require conscious viewing to be psychologically absorbed
Id top hesse
They could get it deep whilst a 70s Criterion joint played at half vol in the background
I just recalled the classic Australian horror/drama, film (though a Canadian director), Wake in Fright, about An English teacher who loses his money gambling and rapidly descends to outback hell.
Nicolas roeg, amazing
Kurasawa the goat
Horror Queers, go on Chapo
I'd like to caucus for a Preston Sturges ep, as your series continues. Suggested pairing: THE GREAT MCGINTY and CHRISTMAS IN JULY.
A Hammer Horror ep would be killer
Loved all of these so far. Knock out some obvious ones, too. Barry Lyndon, Casino, Robocop.
More Roxy screenings please
I love this show and I hope it keeps coming back ❤️
Panic At Needle Park 💪
People will pay money to go on here and say ooooh nooo I had to scroll past something, my tummy huwts. jog on loser
Why are you so butthurt by people's opinions?
That guy posts the same complaint on every movie episode, verbatim. What does that tell you?
it tells you what the audience is thinking, which if you are selling content, you would want to know about
it's cool you guys are into movies and want to make podcasts about them, and it's cool that a subset of the Chapo fans like this content. that's not what the vast majority of your audience pays you for on patreon though. i feel like i am paying you guys to do movie podcasts which i could not care less about.
Are you sure it is "the vast majority?" I didn't hear from you when you were doing your polling. I think this series is great, and I hope it keeps going.
Been enjoying this a lot, a nice break in between all the doom and gloom of current news but still feeling like I’m learning something and not just numbing the brain! Looking forward to watching some of these movies after hearing about them, wasn’t much of an old movie watcher but you guys have converted me lol
More movies! More mindset!
Haneke, 7th continent, Amore, piano teacher
Lee Marvin and emperor of the north at some point 🤞 Loving the mindset expansion pack
Loving the show! Very excited for The Leopard. Would love to hear these two talk about some giallo in October
Love the leopard too
I know both have been covered quite a bit, but I'd love a David Lynch or Verhoeven episode. I'm also interested in your thoughts on La Haine (1995), it's one of my favourites.
God’s Own Country by Francis Lee Powell & Pressburger Masaki Kobayashi
In the fall you gotta do BODY DOUBLE!!!
Army of Shadows …..
I’d you don’t discuss prince of darkness in the fall I will commit harakiri
I've really been enjoying the double feature format of these Movie Mindset episodes. Any chance we'll get a Paul Schrader episode in Part 3?
Fuck yeah Burt Lancaster episode. Excited
Maddox liked my go on chapo post so yall gotta have him on now
Awww bb, kurosawa is the shit
Today we lost Kenneth Anger - who, among other things, made being gay and worshipping Lucifer look cool as fuck since 1947. He represents 96 years of saying fuck you to being a square. He made the "experimental cinema" tag meaningless because he only ever made pure cinema. RIP to a queer king.
Hell yeah
A Peter Bogdanovich episode would be incredible. Would love hearing you two discuss Targets and Paper Moon.
Stepford Wives OG and the remake !
Hello, first time long time. Loving the pod so far...I would love to listen to a future show on that other Kurosawa gentleman, perhaps focusing on his collabs with Toshiro Mifune, the greatest actor of all time. Fuck, I'd be thrilled with an episode on chanbara movies in general. Thanks from the bottom for this slop, it keeps me sane!
28 days later vs 28 weeks later!
I’m gonna break all of Will’s movies and jump up and down on them
this might be stepping on Sleazoids turf, but some Larry Cohen for spooky season would be cool
David Lynch! Especially if you’re doing a spooky series in October
Nice
I thought I couldn't adore you two more, but!!! 💕💕 The Leopard!??!? And NO ONE touches Eureka, and it's so fucking alive -- it's interesting to look at next to There Will Be Blood... And OMG Le Cercle Rouge! Can't wait for the Alain Delon gos... This makes a gal's heart sing, thank you dears.
So hype. This has rapidly become my favorite movie podcast.
can we get a one-off in which y’all tee off on some mass consumption pablum. yknow one for the haters.
really been enjoying the series so far, especially because its lead me to a bunch of movies I hadn't seen. Would love to hear about Takeshi Miike, always been fascinated by his insane output
Excited to see y’all are doing Visconti in a few weeks! Would love your takes on Lina Wertmüller, she’s one of the greatest
Swept Away + Night Porter! (Ooh or Night Porter + The Damned)
Would love to hear about some Coen brothers.
Never heard of any of these. I'm out :/
Sudden Impact is a Dirty Harry sequel, and Kurosawa and Melville make/made incredible movies. It's worth the time to watch at least some of these.
The other Kurosawa also had incredible Mindset, so I’d love season two to cover him. For horror films, a Jeffrey Combs/Keith Gordon retrospective is what I’m hoping for.
1970's paranoia thrillers
Please please do Michael Mann’s “Heat” (1995)
There’s probably 200 podcasts about that and 30 million tweets, would rather hear something different such as Heat (1986)
Yes! The leopard! My favorite movie of all time.
Cronenberg
...third generation, third generation...
Yeah we need a fassbinder ep
How about an Andrzej Zulawski episode?
Do a Terrence Malick ep!
Can we get a Ken Russell ep?
Ari Aster movies maybe? Hereditary/Midsommar/Beau is Afraid triple feature?
Out of those 3 only 1 is a certified classic imo
Hey Will just wanted to say thank you so much for kicking so much ass. Hands down your pods are the funniest and the only one left that I look forward to or haven’t give up on completely. Love the work you do you are ruler of podcast
thank you very much for these kind words.
Stuart Gordon horror ep or Ken Russell horror ep
One obscure but abrasive Japanese horror film that deserves some attention, and I think would do well in the series, is the 1999 film Audition.
Oh snap! Kiyoshi Kurosawa is an amazing director that I never hear talked about. Cure is a masterpiece, excited to hear the movie mindset take!
Larry Cohen double feature please - Q and The Stuff would be my picks.
I'm thinking what if you just do it every week forever
I'd love a discussion of Blacksploitation films. Obviously the 70's stuff but all the future movies that they influenced.
We would all like specific films
REALLY enjoying the series - my mind was particularly bent by the Mickey Rourke and Invasion of the Body Snatchers eps. John Carpenter seems like a slam dunk for y'all after the excellent In The Mouth of Madness screening. I'd also like to throw in a card for Orson Welles, a personal hero and incredible filmmaker. If Welles were alive today would be an EPIC internet troll and shitposter.
This series has made me feel closer to my dad - this is all the stuff he’d show me and talk about at a dangerously young age (clockwork orange at 10, angel heart at 12). He died last year. Listening to this stuff feels like he’s around a little again. Anyway, any chance you can get the god lex g on?
The Haunting (1963 vs. 1999).
Thank you for this.
If you’re looking for contemporary suggestions i think Ben Foster’s one of the most compelling living actors. Got plenty of options — Hell or High Water, Leave No Trace, Ain’t them Bodies Saints, Galveston…haven’t seen The Messenger yet but have it on good account that both he and Woody Harrelson (another good movie mindset candidate) kill it in that one
Which also makes me thing a fly retrospective in line with the body snatchers one!
Second for Kurt Russell, and cronenberg but it must include exinstenz.
I wish they had done atleast one episode that was for the movie philistine chapo listeners.
Very excited for the Lancaster and Melville episodes. Surprised to not see The Swimmer and Le Samouraï but the movie mindset is all about digging deep.
Also John carpenter please
Cronenberg is an obvious one, maybe Videodrome/Crash. Any combination would be sick. Also I think a Crimes and Misdemeanors/Match Point Woody episode would be cool too.
Request: Kurt Russell series and one of the films is Breakdown
Please do an episode about Nagisa Oshima
I actually would really love it if you gave some info on where to find the movies because personally I get really frustrated with digging around for this stuff and will quit at even the slightest bit of resistance and just, like, listen to something instead.
Will try to do it for the next series and see how it goes. Only thought about it/was inspired to do it by Gala Avary's valiant quests to track down streaming options for the obscure video tapes Tarantino and Roger Avary pull on the Video Archives podcast.
Damn it, yet another dud lineup where I've seen exactly one of these. Extra frustrating since our movie tastes in what I've seen seem to overlap at any other point
Yeah they really should have consulted with you before they started this
Please do a horror movie mindset!!!
so excited for the kiyoshi kurosawa ep, WOW!
It's so much better than I thought it would be. Long eps. "Weird" choices. Keep the slop sloppin
request - crossover Miketober x Movie Mindset episode with YKS
OMG EUREKA ARE YOU KIDDING ME
Saving the best for last. I'm pumped!
