S2:E301 – Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and Redemption (Alien: Romulus)

Diego Luna Supremacy

Episode Notes

Ok, so we have yet another Alien release, and no, we are not covering Alien 3. You should love yourself instead. But since Alien Romulus takes place between two previous movies, that gives us the perfect opportunity to talk STAR WARS and ROGUE ONE.

S2:E300 – Midsommar and Cult Indoctrination (Cuckoo)

Everybody wants a cult

Episode Notes

Ok, it is finally time for Dave to talk about MIDSOMMAR. A movie he wants to like, but seems unable to access. To deal with this, we have superfan Dani on to talk about why she connected so deeply with Ari Aster's opus.

S2:E299 – Rope and Morality (Trap)

Your morality is not mine!

Episode Notes

Happy M Night day! This week, he has a new movie coming out called TRAP, so of course, we picked a movie by a master to pair with his next one. No pressure, sir.

This time, we pick up with the master of suspense, Alfred Hitchcock.

S2:E298 – The Defiant Ones and White Privilege (Deadpool and Wolverine)

Look out for White Devils

You say you hate comic book movies? Well, you are in the right place! For the release of DEADPOOL AND WOLVERINE, we decided on a complete left turn. We chose the classic, THE DEFIANT ONES, starring Sidney Poitier. We bring friend of the podcast, Derek Stewart "back" to the show. We go over the movie, white privilege, racial slurs, and "good White people."

S2:E297 – Twister and Risk Taking Behavior (Twisters)

Evil Princess Bride

Hey everyone, our favorite guest, Mike is back! So, either you're welcome or I'm sorry. On this episode, we talk a '90s classic, TWISTER. And what better time, now that its cleverly titled sequel, TWISTERS, is about to come out! No one is more surprised than Dave and Mike in the '90s that we are getting a sequel/reboot/update, but here we are.

M. Night Has Our Hearts

Episode Notes

Like a fool, Dave has decided to put his thoughts about M. Night on the internet. So, he needs backup. Enter Richard Newby, film critic, journalist, and author. We talk racism towards the director, earnestness, love stories, and parenting tips.

More Than Cool

Episode Notes

Ok, finally it's time for Westerns. And Quentin Tarantino! And the return of Good ol Seed, Daryl Mansel! We talk a lot about racial politics and a little about revenge. In between, there is some discussion about the cool factor of Tarantino, and if this is a good fit

Capitalism Sucks

Episode Notes

On this episode, we bring on the ultimate guest, Michael Denniston (Projecting Film, Trilogy in Theory). if you don't like the movie we are covering, go yell at him. Dave foolishly gave him the choice to cover any movie and here we are at THIEF!

S2:E292 – Ratatouille and Self-Concept (Inside Out 2)

The Tiny Chef Is In

Episode Notes

The box office has been in trouble. Can we finally save it with a cartoon? INSIDE OUT 2 is coming out and I'm sure people will finally be lining up to entertain their children.

On our show, we are taking a look at a great cartoon, also made by Pixar, RATATOUILLE.
