  • Once More With Love of Film

    The podcast version of the smart, fun and funny conversation you wish you could have with friends at the pub after seeing a movie.

    It's joyful listening to two people (and occasional guests) who clearly adore film as an art form, but who aren't snobby with it, and aren't afraid to ask the all important question: "why?".

  • Charming

    Good first episode. I appreciate that this is a podcast (like Trashfuture) that, in analyzing the micro, will eventually naturally generate a macro thesis about nostalgia and culture generation. And I need that. Feels important.

Once More With Unusual Days of the Week (feat. Kyle from Door Monster) - Freaky Friday (1977 & 2003)
Q: What do you think makes a remake successful?
The remake succeeds when it preserves the core theme of the original while updating its context and adding value through stronger character focus, better pacing, and authentic performances that justify revisiting the material.
Once More Down the Rabbit Hole - Alice in Wonderland (1951 & 2010)
Q: What are your thoughts on the depiction of Alice's character in the 1951 and 2010 adaptations?
Alice is portrayed as a strong character who defies traditional femininity, but the interpretations reflect different cultural expectations.
