After the Hype

WE DID IT! We reached our 300th episode! To celebrate this momentous occasion we decided to something completely on-the-nose and unsubtle and review Zack Snyder's 300...which is also on-the-nose and unsubtle! And fun was had by all. Oh, and also Happy Thanksgiving!

This week on the podcast we all switch bodies! Just kidding. Actually, we talk about the wonderful, fantastical, body-switching, and time-traveling movie Your Name - a cinematic treat with a great story and even greater animation. Special thanks to friend of the show Paul Krueger for joining us and giving some great insight on the film.

This week on the podcast it's just Bryan and Jon as they talk about Inspector Gadget and Green Lantern, two movies that were widely hated and that ended up damaging or altering the careers of their main actors. They delve into the similarities between the films as well as what worked and what didn't. It's a fun, smaller episode that you won't want to miss.

This week on the podcast we take on Roma, Alfonso Cuaron's Oscar contender (and winner for Best Director, Best Cinematography, and Best Foreign Language Film) that has us wondering if we even saw the same movie. Graham Mason joins us to go over why it wasn't as impressive as the hype would lead you to believe. There are some great moments in here, but they're hidden within many a baffling choice.

SHOWNOTES:

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN DOING?
BRYAN - Review of Captain Marvel, Red Dead Redemption 2 - The Veteran Mission
JON - Stardew Valley
SAM - Animation Show Of Shows
GRAHAM - True Detective S3

Due to some timey-wimey scheduling conflicts and the convenient arrival of Valentine's day we're trying something a little different. It's a Couples Movie Night episode featuring OG hosts Bryan and Chewie, each sharing a movie with each other and then talking about it. Chewie's pick is Virtuosity, and Bryan's pick is Titan A.E. It's a shorter episode than you might be used to, but no less fun, and there's speculation on whether or not Jonathan is a cuddler.

SHOWNOTES:

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN DOING?

BRYAN - Donnie Cates Guardian's of the Galaxy
CHEWIE - Law & Order: SVU, a bottle episode.
