    The guests are often amazing but the hosts can’t seem to think of anything insightful to ask or analyze. It’s a bit cringey to listen to them yap a lot but say very little.

  • Meh

    I found this podcast or TikTok and watching them in 20 second spirits was amazing. I really thought I was signing up for some great information from people that love movies. It’s very hard to listen to when there’s this constant issue of not getting a cultural reference or mispronouncing somebody’s name or making references to other things that don’t necessarily make sense. I would like them to do better, but I’ve given it enough shots. I’m taking it off my queue.

  • UPDATED: Stick with it!

    UPDATE: I listened to a few more episodes, and I think my initial review was too harsh. The hosts maybe just needed some practice and experience. The new eps are much better. They ask more thoughtful questions, and they really do get such good guests! Even when they don’t have a guest, the episodes are fun because of how specific they get about costume details. Good job, y’all!
