never heard of either of these movies. I checked out of pop culture during the era of torture apologia/normalization in service of the Iraq War
Unstoppable seems more timely choice for Denzel/Scott flick.
lol so they do a 2 hour movie podcast but they're always stopping Chapo like exactly at the 1hr mark? I never understood why they started limiting the length
What is this, like the 4th movie/show spinoff from the main podcast? I dont think they really want to do politics anymore.
Seems that way, Matt has been pretty quiet on the show lately
It'll be interesting to see what limited series that they force Felix to do after this has wrapped. I'd be okay with a "This is Sus" revival with his sister: they have a pretty good energy.
What was the theme of This is Sus? I only vaguely remember that coming out.
It was a TV show limited series for reviewing/cringing at NBC (and related) melodramas like "This is Us," "Council of Dads" and "A Million Little Things." The general gist or "theme" was about how these shows reveal what the cultural professionals that concoct this sort of programming think about themselves and the masses more broadly.
The limited series was best in the initial episodes where you had the schadenfreude of Felix genuinely hating the shows being discussed, and then it's clear that he got tired of that and the second half of the limited series was on less cringeworthy content (and thus was kinda boring). I generally don't really respect Felix's cultural takes that much, but it's funny if he's squirming a bit.
What's the angle here? Why is this better than other movie podcasts? Because of my best, intimate friend Will?
Uhhhhhh, will likes Scorsese so I think he knows movies, sweaty
Finally someone has championed little known American film director, Martin Scorsese.
The movie episodes are a great break. You telling me you didn't like Avatar or Demolition Man or Wolf Warrior?
Oops! All Will synopsizing action movies, the podcast.
I'll probably finish it later, maybe they get into something resembling analysis later.
