Feb '23 Wrapped Thaumatically (Film & TV)

A lot of the time is spent discussing their love hate relationship with Tom Hanks' work, the absolutely horrendous green screen and visual effects in Bollywood, and why Sanjay Leela Bansali should transition from being a Director to being a Director of Photography.

Second Chances: "Jhoom Barabar Jhoom"
Lalit & Tarun kick start a brand new segment, on their one episode old podcast, called "Second Chances" where they re-watch old films that didn't do well with critics and/or audiences.
In this installment of "Second Chances" they visit one of Tarun's old favorite, "Jhoom Barabar Jhoom", at an attempt to heal some of your old trauma from this old... Let's just say semi-precious gem in the rough.

We Just Watched: "Tenet"
Lalit and Tarun had watched Tenet when it released in cinemas in 2020, but only recently found the time to finish the edits. Mostly because they've been moonlighting as new dads.
In this installment of "We Just Watched" they have a good time discussing their first thoughts on the film, being the Nolan fanboys that they are.
