  • Intelligent, in-depth Reviews, Fun Hosts

    I love this show! The hosts speak thoughtfully, articulately and with depth. I love their voices and beautiful accents. They speak in such a way as to make me think that film theory and analysis is a regular part of their lives. Their conversations with each other are respectful and meaningful, as well as thought provoking. I’ve listened to all of their review of “Severance” and look forward to more.

  • I never have to watch anything again 😝💃🏾

    So I’ve been avoiding this review for a while. But between my 60 hour work week, and nursing school…I truly have no time to watch TV. You guys do such a great job of capturing shows and television. I just listen to the podcast, and I never actually have to watch the shows. Yes it’s Completely defeats the purpose(come and beat me 😝), but that’s how good of a job you all do. I listen at the gym, on my commute, literally any chance I get. AND it has only gotten better with time, you guys are INVAL... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

MCU 12: No. 3 'Avengers: Endgame' Makes It All Worth It
Q: What do you guys think about the idea that there should have been a bigger gap between Infinity War and Endgame, to make the audience feel the snap more?
The hosts debate whether a longer release gap could have given audiences more time to absorb the consequences of the snap. They conclude that a three-year delay might have harmed the film's pacing and audience momentum, though Steve understands the case for a little more time.
MCU 12: No. 3 'Avengers: Endgame' Makes It All Worth It
Q: Why do you love this film?
Steve says the film rewards longtime MCU viewers with callbacks and brings more than a decade of world-building together into a coherent finale. Ebuka praises its fan service, time-travel structure and setup for what could have followed the Infinity Saga.
'Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother', Plus We Return to the London Film Festival!
Q: What was your favourite part of the film?
Oseghale singles out the comic scene in which Latif catches his daughter watching furry pornography and responds by suggesting they go to the mosque. He also praises the film's religious themes and its bold ending.
'Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother', Plus We Return to the London Film Festival!
Q: What's the experience been like six years on?
Chris says the London Film Festival has become familiar because recent editions have used the same press-screening venue, while the changing group of attendees and different films keep each year distinct.
'Slow Horses' Season 6, Episode 5: A Romantic Place to Die
Q: Is there a chance that this is the last time we ever see Sid?
The panel considers it possible that Sid has left for good, though they also discuss the possibility of a later message or reunion with River.
