Spoilerpiece Theatre Episode 198: Avengers: Infinity War
Josh Brolin voices the terrifying villain Thanos in Avengers: Infinity War.
“Spoilerpiece Theatre” is a weekly movie podcast where I talk about new releases with fellow BOFCA critics Dave Riedel and Kris Jenson. We don’t give a shit about spoilers. We just want to talk about the movies.
In Episode 198 below, we review Avengers: Infinity War, You Were Never Really Here, Super Troopers 2, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and Marathon Man. It’s a hot week o’ movies over at Spoilerpiece. First a Crewind segment, where I fill Kris and Dave in on my recent viewings of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (3:58), which I’ve seen a million times, and Marathon Man (6:33), which is his first viewing. Then we keep up with the Jensons for a brief talk about Super Troopers 2 (14:41), and Riedel has a recap with the Joaquin Phoenix thriller You Were Never Really Here (20:07). Question: Is the title of this Phoenix movie a reference to I’m Not Here? Let us know! Finally, Kris and Dave fill me in on the big new release of the week: Avengers: Infinity War (28:56). How does it stack up against other recent Marvel movies? Don’t forget to check out our Patreon where you can get all kinds of goodies for being a totes rad patron.
Evan Crean: Hello! My name is Evan Crean. By day I work for a marketing agency, but by night, I’m a film critic based in Boston, MA. Since 2009, I have written hundreds of movie reviews and celebrity interviews for Starpulse.com. I have also contributed pieces to NewEnglandFilm.com and to The Independent, as a writer and editor. I maintain an active Letterboxd account too.
In addition to publishing short form work, I am a co-author of the book Your ’80s Movie Guide to Better Living, which is available on CreateSpace and Amazon. The book is the first in a series of lighthearted self-help books for film fans, which distills advice from ’80s movies on how to tackle many of life’s challenges.
On top of writing, I co-host and edit the weekly film podcast Spoilerpiece Theatre with two other Boston film critics. I’m a founding member and the current treasurer for the Boston Online Film Critics Association as well.
