  • Fun

    Enjoyable and fun. I sometimes listen to episodes about movies I haven’t even seen. I don’t always agree with their takes, and they often inject a little too many political jabs for my taste, but fun nonetheless

  • Love… (IYKYK)

    I may not know them personally (and I may not always agree with their reviews even though they’re generally in keeping with the overall consensus 😜 - Revenge of the Sith is my favorite Star Wars movie ¯\_(ツ)_/¯), but I genuinely love Andrew and Diana. (Hey, it’s cliché, but if people can hate for no reason, then we can also love for no reason. Also, though, there are plenty of reasons to love Andrew and Diana!) If you’re a nerd, especially for superhero and adventure films, then this is your po... more
