Movie Geeks United!

Jamey, Jerry, and Chris, three passionate, enthusiastic movie geeks, have banded together to create "Movie Geeks United!," a weekly, hour-long tribute to movies and the people who make them. The program features movie reviews, film news, in-depth discussions, and special interviews.

All three hosts are eager to marvel and amaze with their cinematic expertise, and they delight in sharing their opinions with listeners, who are invited to call in and join the fun. Some recent shows have dealt with violence in movies, appreciating "The Sopranos," and the remaining 2007 theatrical releases. Upcoming shows will feature interviews with movie directors George Ratcliff, whose film "Joshua" is a psychological thriller about a Manhattan family torn asunder, and Perry Santos, whose "I'm Rick James" documentary profiles the late musician's turbulent life.

"Movie Geeks United!" is also famous for its special tribute episodes which highlight the legendary careers of silver screen icons. They recently paid tribute to Al Pacino with a special two-hour broadcast examining the influential actor's enormous impact through such films as "Dog Day Afternoon," "The Godfather," and "Scarface." The list of special guests included Thomas G. Waites, who appeared alongside Pacino in theater productions and the film "And Justice for All;" Steven Bauer, who played Manny Ribera in "Scarface;" frequent Pacino collaborator Richard Cox; author William Schoell, who penned the book "The Films of Al Pacino;" as well as several cast members from "Salomaybe?," which is Pacino's current directorial effort that provides a behind-the-scenes look at his theater production of Oscar Wilde's "Salome."
