Four-quadrant films are movies designed to appeal to the biggest, widest audience possible. In the process, they can often leave out a lot of LGBTQ+ representation – but end up loaded with subtext.

So glad to find this niche and necessary show. Queer cinema is cinema.
I love it when they talk about a movie I’ve seen but also half the time it’s one I haven’t, I end up going and watching it. I now own Birds of Prey and have watched it multiple times and started making breakfast sandwiches!
Just listened to the Challengers episode and I enjoyed it but was waiting for some structure or organization to kick in. There were a few times when they brought up a specific scene and someone said “we’ll get to that later” and they never do! It’s more stream-of-consciousness/tangent style, which is still entertaining, but I was hoping for a more scene-specific analytical discussion. I would recommend categories like favorite scenes, nitpicks, etc, for future episodes.
if i’m honest 😬
I love this podcast! You guys do such a great job. Thank you so much for making this!
