If you like movie reviews that get filtered through a profoundly narrow, woke leftist lens…this is the podcast for you. If the movie checks the proverbial boxes, these critics will love the movie…so you really don’t need to listen (you already know where they stand). However, if this type of review is your jam, just listen to Filmspotting…they largely do the same thing, it’s just not as overt and a little more critical and thoughtful.
These people will endlessly complain about the death of the movie theater and then get super mad when a movie they don't like does well.
I like movie theaters I want them to continue to exist but It's like listening to 70-year-olds talk about the phonograph. So long.
Huge Chen head from way back, tuned in for that reason. He is barely allowed to chime in?
Episodes are so heavily edited that it’s become nearly impossible to follow a single train of thought. One person speaking will abruptly fade into someone else speaking before they can even finish a sentence. Hosts talking over one another becomes clipped audio mush with zero clarity. It’s a mess.
I really love all of the box office movie knowledge these guys drop on us every week!! I also love all of the special guest appearances!!!
