For our diamond jubilee episode (60!!) we had to go big with a double dose of lady assassin action: Lady Snowblood and Lady Snowblood 2: Love Song of Vengeance. But before we get into this love song of an episode, we had to talk about what we w
Ghost Dog, power, equality. Always see everything, my brother. That's the kind of vibe we're about to get on. So join us for this stoic, Jim Jarmusch samurai flick featuring Forest Whitaker, his son, Damon, the RZA and a whole slew of over the
Demon Woman, Demon Hag. Po-tay-to, po-tah-to. However, you slice it up, it comes up Onibaba every time. But before we get lost in the flowing miscanthus, stumble into a pit and plummet to our deaths, only to have our clothes and valuables scave
Holy, Shogun Assassin, Ronin, it's Samurai Swordplay Month-ish at Fully Operational! We're delving into some samurai classics and deep cuts (get it?), starting with the Rza/Wu-Tang Clan approved, Lone Wolf and Cub: Sword of Vengeance. But befor
With West Coast temperatures in the 110s, we figured why not add a little more Heat... and Dust to the world. That's right, we watched a 4th Ruth Prawer Jhabvala film, this one based on her 1975 Booker Prize-winning novel of the same name. But
This is what remains of our three films by Ruth Prawer Jhabvala miniseries, the 8x Oscar-nominated (zero-winning), The Remains of the Day, starring Anthony Hopkins, in one of his most intricate roles and Dame Emma Thompson, coming hot off her H
The Ruth Truth Train is still chugging along with the movie she won her 2nd screenwriting Oscar for: Howards End. It's turn of the century E.M. Forster at its finest, but does it still hold up? Before you can hear our esteemed, expert takes, we
How many screenwriters have won multiple Academy Awards? 15. It's an exclusive group. Woody Allen won 3 #canceled. Here are the other 14 that have won 2: Robert Bolt, Charles Brackett, Paddy Chayefsky, Francis Ford Coppola, Christopher Hampton,
Zack Snyder's latest film, Army of the Dead, came out on Netflix not too long ago. And even though we're about to kick off our trifecta of Ruth Prawer Jhabvala movies (tomorrow!), we knew we had to watch it and share our expert opinions, which
We close out our theme of Taylor Sheridan movies with his most recent film (which he wrote and directed) and just came out in theaters (remember those?) and HBO Max: Those Who Wish Me Dead. It's about smokejumpers and assassins and survivalists
Wind River is the directorial debut of actor/screenwriter Taylor Sheridan. Coming off of Sicario and Hell or High Water, expectations were high, and he knocks it out of the park again, with some fine performances from the requisite Marvel Aveng
Come Hell or High Water, this episode is gonna go live! Because we're talking about Taylor Sheridan's script, directed by David Mackenzie, starring Chris Pine, Ben Foster, Jeff Bridges, Gil Birmingham, Katy Mixon, Dale Dickey, and more in Hell
Tom Clancy's novel, Without Remorse has been waiting for the Hollywood treatment for years—even Keanu Reeves was attached back in the day—so who knew it would end up in the lap of screenwriter Taylor Sheridan and director Stefano Sollima of Sic
As soon as Sicario came out, we knew Taylor Sheridan was a good screenwriter. Three films later (with two more about to drop in the next few weeks), he's cementing his status as a great screenwriter. And for the next month or so, we're diving
We close out The Godfather Saga with a double feature courtesy of Mr. Coppola himself—The Godfather: Part III + The Godfather, Coda. We're talking almost five and half hours of pure Corleone action! But before we can break down everything that
The saga continues with a part II (of The Godfather: Part II) to remember. After a blistering part I, it wasn't clear if we'd even make it back into the recording studio (aka Zencastr) to finish it up, but we set aside our differences and did j
In the famous words of Don Dre Corleone, you broke my heart, Goodman. Or more specifically, Paramount+ broke Goodman's (and the internet's) heart. In this episode, art imitates life because Fully Operational becomes a tragedy, an opera... a sag
Yes, it's April Fool's Day. Yes, we're back. No, it's not a joke, we're really back. Seriously, there's a real movie episode that's now live. It's not just Goodman going off the top of the dome for 45 minutes on Tenet (with only 5 minutes being
Hello, Fully Friends! We're still on vacation, but we couldn't let the 2021 Oscar Nominations come out without our expert analysis and insightful reactions (uh, where TF is Lauren Lapkus' Best Actress nomination?). So join us for a quick debrie
Welcome to the definitive podcast review of Christopher Nolan's 2020 film, Tenet. This review is so hot, it's basically the audio equivalent of OnlyFans, which is why it had to come in 2021. If you're a Goodman-completist, this is a must listen
Did Dre & Goodman say they were taking off the month of March? Yes, we did. But that doesn't mean we can't put out a bonus Award-filled episode! We celebrate the best that 2020 had to offer (from what we were able to watch) with a list of 20 sh
Our month-long celebration of Black and Romantic movies has come to an end. We spent One Night in Miami with Sylvie's Love, took a Photograph of Love Jones, hung out with Malcolm & Marie, and now we head out to to the Atlantics for a final wrap
This week on Fully Operational, we discuss Eminem's favorite movie of 2021, Malcolm & Marie (obviously)! We also share some initial thoughts on the 2021 SAG nominations (spoiler alert: they're just like the Golden Globes, only slightly less ups
