Jarrod and Jordan discuss Matt Damon in Tom McCarthy's Stillwater, which contrary to statements made on this podcast in the past is NOT about fracking. It IS good thought and Matt Damon IS great in it.

Jarrod and Jordan discuss one of the biggest commercial successes of Matt Damon's career, Ridley Scott's 2015 film The Martian. This ultimate crowd pleaser shows yet another gear for Damon and earns him another Oscar nomination.

Jarrod and Jordan discuss Matt Damon in Steve Soderbergh's last movie because he definitely didn't make anymore, 2013's Behind the Candelabra. Released on HBO, this movie serves as a bit of a throwback to the types of performances Damon was giving in the late 1990s, before your Bournes and your Oceans, your Departeds and your Green Zones.

Jarrod and Jordan discuss Matt Damon in Green Zone, directed by Paul Greengrass. Despite the past success of the Damon-Greengrass connection (Bournes Supremacy and Ultimatum), this thriller based on the real events and false pretenses of the US military's involvement in Iraq did not connect with audiences much at all and is an example of one of Damon's few true flops.

Who's Our Lead goes back to Boston this week to discuss Matt Damon in the Martin Scorsese directed Best-Picture winner, The Departed. With two successful franchises in full swing, Damon continues a streak of critical and commercial success as he turns in what may be his best ever performance in one of Scorsese's most purely entertaining movies.

Jarrod and Jordan discuss Matt Damon in the massively successful, franchise-starting thriller The Bourne Identity. Damon is pitch perfect in this nervy action movie, turning in a physical performance unlike anything he had done in his career prior to this.

On this week's Who's Our Lead?? Jarrod and Jordan discuss Kevin Smith's Dogma, which marks the end of Matt Damon's significant involvement in a certain type of independent filmmaking. He still has more movies to make, but it seems unlikely that we'll ever see Damon in a movie that features a poop demon ever again, for better or for worse (it's for better).

Jarrod and Jordan discuss Matt Damon in Steven Spielberg's 1998 massively culturally significant WWII film Saving Private Ryan. Matt Damon plays the titular role and, despite not showing up from 2/3 of the movie's runtime, plays a massive part in the moral and emotional complexities this movie is sifting through.
