Reviews
- I get that their leftists, but take a break for a minute
I get that their New York Times leftists, but not every movie from the 90s requires analysis through a socialist lens. “I’m disappointed that people like Harrison Ford’s Jack Ryan didn’t stop Trump.” It’s too much.

It's more than just nostalgia – it's a covert operation!
Apple Podcasts5BruinsBeatUnited Statesa month ago - Insightful and Fun
As someone who saw many of these films in theaters I appreciate the reflections of the films of this period (for better or worse) and the historical/cultural context.
Apple Podcasts5TomfromClevelandUnited Statesa month ago - This is great!!!
A fabulous informal discussion of 1990’s politics, discussed around 1990s action movies. more
Apple Podcasts5fendstatUnited States2 months ago - Smart guys but major blindspots
One of them said he thought “rhizomatic” was a dumb word. I would prefer that they learn something about mycology before making such absolutely ridiculous statements. Rhizomatic is a fascinating and important sociological concept related to the idea that people communicate based not always on language or perceptible action but are still connected by other means. Sorry for the not great review, but I expect better, at least from Jamelle, Ganz is kind of a pr1ck.
