This week we’re talking about Opus (HBO Max) and while it had some interesting ideas, we couldn’t help but feel like it was walking in the shadow of better films that did the same thing with way more impact.
Before we dive into all that, we kick things off with a spoiler-free reaction to the first teaser for Stranger Things Season 5 (0:07). We’re emotional. We’re hyped. We have a lot of questions.
Then, we get into Opus (08:30)— it’s stylish, ambitious, and worth a watch if you’re into psychological spirals and art world drama… just maybe temper your expectations.
We tease next week’s episode at the end if you listen to those things (53:42).
In the meantime, let us know your thoughts about Opus, and don't forget to like & subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts!
