Have You Ever Seen
Ryan and Bev Ellis are partners in film nerdery who share their often humorous musings on the AFI's 1998 & 2007 lists of the greatest 100 American films ever made. But we finished with that in December 2015, so now we just review anything we feel like!

Amadeus
How do you appreciate the topic of our 107th AFI podcast? Think of the genius Mozart as a modern rock star who DOESN'T get whatever he wants. Also, think of the jealous Salieri as a modern sports-wri…

Sophie's Choice
The AFI shows us snippets of the Holocaust and the cruelty of Nazis in T100P #106. Especially Meryl Streep, but also Kevin Kline and...some other guy are pretty much the whole movie. AFI-worthy? Lear…

Tootsie
A recurring AFI theme---a character having to put on an act---is the main theme in T100P #105. Dustin Hoffman wears a wig & a dress, but does the comedy stick the way it did when Lemmon did it in Som…

Blade Runner
The warmth and fun of recent Spielberg AFIers gives way to cold, futuristic sci-fi (and film noir) in this 104th edition of the T100P. Ridley Scott’s only AFI movie is Harrison Ford’s final one. They…

E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial
The foreign botanist with healing powers is the star of our 103rd T100P ‘cast. This movie manipulates its audience in very eye-watering ways, complete with John Williams’ soaring music. Raiders was l…

Raiders Of The Lost Ark
Our 102nd T100P podcast is one of the most enjoyable movies anybody has ever made. Steven Spielberg, George Lucas and their star Harrison Ford redefined what action-adventure pictures could be. But w…

Raging Bull
We enter the ’80s on the T101P with the ferocious Scorsese/De Niro abusive boxer movie that’s considered one of the modern greats. We branch off into all sorts of different areas with this episode, i…

Apocalypse Now
Our *ahem* wordiest podcast yet is #100 (!) on the T100P. This epic, messy freak-out war flick is the Jackson Pollock of movies. Coppola, Brando, Duvall and Sheen are all making their last AFI pictur…

The Deer Hunter
We sic T100P podcast #99 on you one week before America's Memorial Day. That's appropriate, even if there's much debate whether or not this movie is patriotic. It certainly covers all kinds of PTSD a…

Close Encounters Of The Third Kind
Or: alien invasion of the nice kind. Then again, are these aliens as benevolent as people think? We have theories. Spielberg's 2nd AFI movie makes for our 98th T100P podcast. Was this a worthy choice…

Star Wars
T100P podcast #97 is the little-seen, esoteric, under-appreciated Star Wars. Ha! Okay okay, who needs to be sold on this one? Love it or loathe it, you know all about it. So click the buttons to get …

Annie Hall
Woody Allen's only AFI picture, great as it is, isn't even appreciated by its maker. We certainly dig it though. Rom-coms don't get much better. Podcast #96 covers all the Woody ground, including his…

Clerks
Kevin Smith's breakout flick is the foul-mouthed subject of our 10th Not 100 Project podcast. Trevor Little chose Clerks after he won our "Pick Your Podcast" contest. Not surprisingly, Smith's name i…

Rocky
The 95th edition of the T100P features the ultimate underdog story before the series turned into amusing self-parody. Sly Stallone's signature role made him a huge star, something he wouldn't have ac…

Network
One of Ryan's favourite sayings: "There's nothing the media likes talking about more than the media." It's fitting that we got mad as hell in this future-seeing satire that rips television and corpor…

All The President's Men
Journalists as righteous heroes? Fantasy film? Nope. T100P podcast #93 is based on the all-too-real story of Woodward & Bernstein's dogged pursuit of the truth in the Watergate break-in. Redford & Ho…

One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest
All therapy and no freedom makes Mac something something. Jack Nicholson roars through the asylum in T100P podcast numero 91, messing with protocol, rule-following and sexual politics. There are many…

Jaws
The thrills, the chase, the blood, the teeth! Our 90th T100P podcast covers the rare thriller/horror/action flick on the list, which just happens to be Ryan’s favourite movie. Bev digs it too, even t…

Nashville
Robert Altman's outstanding musical dramedy is the 89th T100P podcast. Keith Carradine and Lily Tomlin are among the 2 dozen actors with prominent roles...and a lot of them sing their own songs! Altm…
