To start off our very first episode, we’re going down the rabbit hole discussing the recurring themes between Christopher Nolan's and Charlie Kaufman's films.
Join us while we debate the good, the bad and the ugly about these films...
Do you need a narrative to enjoy a film? What makes you care about a character? Were you confused about Tenet or I'm Thinking of Ending Things?
SPOILER ALERT
We'll be discussing the films Tenet and I'm Thinking of Ending Things.

We’re extremely excited about this mind-bending episode.
What makes a 'reality' alternate? It doesn't necessarily need to be in the 'Sci Fi' genre, so is it more about a tone, feeling or vibe?
We've homed in on The Truman Show Delusion, informally known as Truman Syndrome, a type of delusion in which the person believes their life is staged & scripted.
Films like Bliss, The Congress, The Matrix, The Truman Show, Coherence and many more have acted as gateways for us to experience the world of alternate realities. With the Information Age giving us possibilities as well as problems; is ignorance bliss? Which pill would you take, Red or Blue?
Disclaimer...
Without getting too philosophical, our common understanding is that we are all in our separate realities with individual perceptions of our one shared physical reality. We’re not physicists so these are just our views on it.
We’ve based our discussions on films where characters live in the same reality as us but are thrown into an alternate separate reality. Changing what is considered real for the character and their world.
See you down there Neo 💊 🐇 🕳

What a rabbit infested hole we have for you this week!
With Netflix's "The Crown" surging in popularity in its fourth season, why are people fascinated with the Royals? Are we telling the media this is what we want? Is it a conspiracy between those in power and the media, just to keep the status quo?
The Crown has stirred up many feelings, for good or for worse they are being talked about, kept in our thoughts and best of all... being questioned.
See you down the royal rabbit hole!

In the famous words from Sleepless in Seattle (heavy Boston accent here) "you don't wanna be in love, you wanna be in love in a movie."
Are they good for us? Is this simply a rom con? Are you fooled and do you care?
