Creating Cannon

Greeting, fellow Cannonistas! We're going back to the early era of Cannon Films with a coming of age film from the late 60s: Inga! This is only the beginning of the saga of Inga, being the first in a trilogy but we'll get to that later. Nick and AJ sat down and watched what is essentially Swedish porn so that we could all learn more about about the phenomenon of Cannon! That's right, they made that sacrifice! For you! So settle in and get your tissues ready...because...it is...an emotional movie! Yeah, that's it! Enjoy!

What up, Cannon Fans! We're spittin' rhymes and stoppin' crimes with John "Rappin'" Hood in the radical 1985 film Rappin'! Nick and AJ break it down old school in this Mario van Peebles led movie with over 14 musical numbers and some of the tastiest rhymes of the time. They find a brilliant if a bit cartoonish piece of cinema where  rich developers have vague plans of taking over neighborhoods and the gangs save the hood with the power of rhyme. Settle in for some hot beats. Enjoy!   Email us your favorite rap lyrics or an original one like Nick wrote to creatingcannon@gmail.com Follow us on Twitter and Instagram and Facebook @CreatingCannon!

When there's a murderer / In your neighborhood / And the cops won't help / cause they're no good / Who you gonna call? / Klaus Kinski! Welcome Cannon-philes! This week, Nick and AJ are dissecting the suspenseful and shocking "Schizoid"! We give the the insane history of this giallo-style film (and yes Nick can finally properly pronounce it) and tick off the tantalizing list of spooky suspects with a lesson in levity! And that's it for the agonizing alliteration. Almost. There. That's it.

Hello Cannon Heads! The Creating Cannon fellas are popping their Bronson cherry this episode with a viewing of '10 to Midnight'!  We learned a lot this episode, whether it was how to dress while committing crimes, how to not solve a murder or how not to act if you're a cop! Besides these real-world tips, we learned so much about writing a pretty taught suspense thriller! Enjoy the ramblings!

What's Up Cannonites! Here is our first official episode! And we start our movie-watching adventure off with a bang: Captain America! Of course, not the one you're thinking of. Not the shiny, slick MCU Chris Evans Cap. This is a fairly well-hidden secret from the year 1990! We will travel back in time and experience all of the horrors that WWII and the early 90s had to offer. Join AJ and Nicholas as they see what lessons they can learn from this early attempt at marvel-ous movie making!

Welcome Listeners!  We are so glad you've chosen to join us on the ride of a lifetime! Nicholas C. Pappas and AJ Hamilton have committed themselves to watching every single movie in the library of The Cannon Film Group, a film production company that existed as if in a dream. They will be discussing the gamut of these all talkies, between brilliant and insane. And in the end, their goal is to create the perfect Cannon film that might memorialize the whole learning experience. Let's see what dedication, unending passion and blind dumb luck can do!  In our first episode, Nick and AJ will be discussing the 2014 documentary about The Cannon Group, directed by Mark Hartley. Watch it if you can get your hands on it! It's great!
