Spoilerpiece Theatre Episode 42: The Avengers: Age of Ultron

THE AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON

“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 42 below, we all agree that we would be better off never seeing another Adam Sandler movie after discussing Dave’s op ed on Sandler’s project The Ridiculous 6. Then we move on to talking about The Avengers: Age of Ultron, which I forget to refer to by its full name. Dave likes the film a lot, but Kris and I have some issues with it. Next, Dave fills us in on Alex Garland’s Ex Machina, leading Kris to wonder aloud “Why does a robot have a butt?” No one really has a good answer other than sexism. Finally, Kris wraps up by talking about stuff he caught at IFFBoston like Welcome to Leith, Call Me Lucky, and The Tribe. One of these films almost made Kris lose his burrito dinner because it was “astounding, gripping, and holy shit disturbing.” Tune in to find out which one it is.

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.
