GoodTrash GenreCast
A movie analysis show looking at your favorite cult and genre films from across cinema history. Each week, Dustin, Arthur, and Dalton try to apply academic rigor and critical analysis to the films you wouldn’t talk about in a film studies class while having a few laughs along the way. It’s the conversations you have in the lobby of the multiplex with a little more room to breathe, and the occasional footnote. Stay tuned to the feed for bonus episodes on new releases.

Dear listener, you are not ready for this. You are not ready for the 1985 neo-noir crime thriller starring Kris Kristofferson entitled Trouble in Mind. We were also not ready for it, but we watched it anyway thanks to our old friend and Patreon supporter Michael Cole. He knew our wheelhouses and picked a doozy of an entry.

Ahoy mateys! We're back into non-themed international waters this week with a Patreon-awarded selection from Clayton!

Hello fiends and familiars! We have come to the conclusion of our Once More with Feeling marathon. This month, we've seen trash, after trash, after trash.

Join us as we take Solaris to the analysis table again!
Hello dear friends and trashers, our Once More with Feeling marathon chugs along at bullet train speeds this week.

Welcome back trash-heads! Our remake marathon, Once More with Feeling, continues with a look at Guy Ritchie's take on the Disney classic Aladdin.

We talk all things adaptation, Will Smith, transnational cinema, and more. Join us now as we dance around and analyze Aladdin.
Fiends and familiars, quite trying to make fetch happen. It didn't take in 2004, and it definitely did not take in 2024. That's right, Once More with Feeling continues as we tackle the 2024 adaptation of Mean Girls: The Musical. With Tina Fey still in the mix, we question how far this property has come, or if it should have closed off broadway years ago. Tune in now to hear our reviews and analysis of Mean Girls: The Musical.
The summer of the list is over friends! We're back to our regularly scheduled nonsense. And to get back into the groove, we're cooking up a new marathon: Once More with Feeling. The hook?

Friends and familiars, we bring the Summer of the List to an end this week. Last year, we got a bit more familiar with the Sight and Sound Top 100. This year though, we asked, why has nobody updated the AFI Top 100 in nearly 20 years? So, we are doing just that. We are counting down our top 10 removals and additions to the AFI Top 100 Movies list. Tune in to find out what made the list!
