Very nice discussion of Twin Peaks. Knowledgeable of the lore and had good takes.
nice discussion of some critical films.
I think you should review Howard the Duck
I've always wanted to complete my viewing of certain horror movie franchises... knowing I will get to listen to an episode of Hurt a Bit after has finally given me the motivation. And if the movie they cover is one I have no desire to watch, it's still fun to learn more about it and laugh along with John and Jim while they discuss it.
I am more of a casual horror fan, so I enjoy hearing about the extended franchises that I probably won’t ever actually watch. Episodes are full of fun behind the scenes details about production, which is always a plus for me. It’s like chatting with your friends over beers about favorite movies.
But really I’m here to say yes to more Twin Peaks episodes! I am a die hard fan and ready for more.
