  • Politics… (sigh)

    I love this podcast and the whole crew, I’ve been listening since 2020 but I have to admit the show has gotten worse due to the fact that there are too many toxic political discussions almost in every episode now.

    I know politics are everywhere now and its hard to avoid discussing it especially in the US but as someone who’s in the middle of the spectrum I wish Slash crew either discussed it from different perspectives, be more objective or just stick to reviewing the movies without bringing up... more

  • Good, but used to be GREAT!

    I like this podcast and everyone on it, but I am sad that they put my favorite part, the box office rundown, behind a paywall on another podcast. It hurts. Even though the show is weekly now, it can still review the previous weekend’s box office on Wednesday. It is still extremely relevant to THIS podcast. I don’t understand it.

And no, I’m not gonna join that one dude’s patreon to get it. I still listen, fast forward all the interviews cause I don’t care for them. I guess you get a decent 5 to... more

  • could you please go back to original format

    I loved this show up until recently when they changed the format.

    Bring back water cooler and box office summaries. Interviews tend to be boring.

    thank you

Q: Bill, tell me about your familiarity with Charlie XCX, and then tell me what you thought about this movie.

Q: How was it re-engaging with Gore Verbinski after A Cure for Wellness?
His unique vision is refreshing, though the film balances ambition and coherence unevenly at times.
Wuthering Heights, Crime 101, and Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die (with Gore Verbinski)

It's enjoyable but feels like a derivative 'heat at home' type of film; the cast elevates it despite weak character development.

Q: What are your thoughts on Emerald Fennell's adaptation of Wuthering Heights?
The adaptation has sparked debate on casting choices and cultural implications, revealing deeper societal issues.
