There are rarely companies that take risks on artists and survive financially to tell the tale, but A24 is in a league of its own. Hello again everyone, it's wonderful to have you back! In this episode Dillon and Fortune dive into new films they seen, Jeepers Creepers: Reborn & Pearl, as well as films from A24, one of their favorite distribution companies in the industry right now.

It's definitely been a minute but we promise it's for a few good reasons. In our reemergence episode we discuss what we've been up to over the last few weeks before diving into Game of Thrones: House of the Dragon, The Rings of Power, Prey, Nope, and Better Caul Saul. It was fantastic to sit down and be able to get back to what we love again, and we've missed you all so much. We also speak a little bit about an ...

Welcome back fellow cinephiles. How often have you seen a film that has an amazing concept, but as the film prods along, it just seems to lose steam? Don't you just hate that? Well, we absolutely do, in fact, maybe it's time for film studios to spend more time greenlighting some of these concepts that deserve a good remake rather than films that were already great. Grab some coffee and join us as we discuss some films tha...

How many of you love both Stranger Things and Stephen King? All of you? Excellent, so do we!

From the phenomena that is the "Dear Billy" episode to some of Stephen King's film and literature work, we've got you covered. Join us as we sit down and dive into a legendary night of Stranger...well, Kings.

How many of you saw Dr. Strange and The Multiverse of Madness? What did you think of it? Well we saw it over the weekend and we decided to dive straight into it. We do have a few spoilers so if you want to skip to our man subject, Director David Fincher, feel free to and come back once you've seen the new Marvel film.  David Fincher is one of, if not the best director alive right now but what makes him so good as his craft? Jo...

What are some of your favorite movie sequels? It's tricky, isn't it? There are so many disappointing sequels that it seems like the great ones need a lot more celebration, and that's what this episode is all about. We have an incredibly great time discussing some of our favorite movie sequels and why we think they worked so well. Grab some coffee or tea and join us as we become the sequel people that we, apparently, ...

There are many disappointing movies out there and then there are movies that are just the worst but...sometimes it's not that simple. In fact, some terrible movies are more entertaining than good ones, so we decided to have an experiment based on a suggestion from one of our previous guests, Josef Wilke, where we recommend terrible films to each other that we enjoy because they are so bad, they are good to us. It led to some i...

What are some of your favorite "classics?" Well, we wanted to talk about some films that we have loved over the past fifteen years or so and discuss what makes films become classics, and which films we think will be considered classics twenty years from now. Grab your coffee and join us as we break down some films we love and have a great time discussing why we think they will be new classics that people come back to watc...

The world of Miyazaki is absolutely breathtaking and... well both worlds are...sigh. OK, so there are really two Miyazaki's, and we will be discussing both of them this episode, along with our first guest Josef Wilke, AKA: HashtagSpooky! He is a good friend and colleague who works as a video editor, content creator, and game streamer. Spooky has also published graphic novels and currently has other projects in the works. The m...

The moment has arrived, and Batman has returned...or...The Batman is here? Never mind. We saw Matt Reeves' The Batman (2022) this weekend and we decided to take a spoiler free deep dive into the film for the first few minutes and then a spoiler filled, nerdy conversation emerges shortly after but don't worry, we give a verbal warning once the spoilers begin for those of you that have not seen the film yet. After discussin...

Who doesn't like a good Western? After our conversation last time about The Yellow Light Trilogy we were intrigued by another community proclaimed trilogy referred to as the 2007 Western Trilogy (There Will Be Blood, No Country For Old Men, and The Assassination of Jesse James). Tune in and grab some popcorn as we discuss the trilogy that delves into the darkest elements of America, old and new. We also saw Jackass 4 and Netfl...

Sometimes Reddit REALLY comes through, especially in this case. The Yellow Light trilogy was nicknamed, we think, by a couple of people on reddit years ago. It consists of three movies that aren't actually a trilogy, but feel like they could be, and they feature crime neo noir plots with Los Angeles lights painting the background every step of the way. These lights help inform the cinematography, hence The Yellow Light Trilogy...

In our first episode of SEASON 2 we dove into the Scream horror film franchise since the new film, Scream 5, hits theaters this Friday. We decided to re-watch all four of the scream films in order to prepare for the new movie. Wes Craven really brought this series to life so though we are excited about the new film, it's interesting to see where it will go now that he has unfortunately passed away. Join us as we delve into the...
