Best Film Ever Movie Podcast

(Deep Dive begins at 30:50)
We don't watch and analyse films because it's cute. We watch and analyse films because we are members of the human race. Join your favorite TransAtlantic podcasters, Ian, Liam, and Megan (Georgia is in detention) as we're heading to a dark cave in the middle of the night to trade snacks, play saxophone, and read from Five Centuries of Verse in the film that's crack for teachers, Dead Poets Society.  We're seizing the day in our 229th episode as we discuss:
Just how responsible is Mr Keating for what happens to Neil
Does the film have a happy ending. How do we know what the director wants us to think?
Liam asks a lot of questions from a student's perspective. Ian & Megan try to answer them from a teacher's perspective
Why did Robin Williams no-show the first day of shooting and how did Touchstone/Disney react?
How did Disney want to change this film and who saved it from some truly terrible notes
We ask if this is Robin Williams' finest film and/or performance
There's a couple of hiccoughs in the signal this week
Whether or not Dead Poets Society and the Last Crusade is the Best Film Ever

We usually go king sized on the BFE but perhaps brevity truly is the source of wit.  Welcome to Three Act Structure: the BFE review show where we have to pass judgment on films but this time, we can only use 3 words or less - wait, should that be 'or fewer?'
This month we're reviewing every Film and TV entry into the Marvel Cinematic Universe.  How will films like Iron Man, Captain America, Ant-Man, Spider-Man: Homecoming and Avengers Endgame do when we're limited to a trifecta of words.
What 3 words would you have used? Let us know on social media over at twitter.com/bestfilmeverpod

We belong in a museum. Join your favorite TransAtlantic podcasters, Ian and Liam (Georgia & Megan got lost in their own museum) as we're heading to Alexandretta in search of the Holy Grail and Henry Jones Sr in what should have been Indy's swan song, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.  All we have to do is scream in our 228th episode as we discuss:
Some of the insane pitches for this film as Liam plays "Real Pitch or Chat GPT Pitch?"
We have a little English teaching as homonyms are on the docket today
Is this film accessible to those not familiar with any of the previous Indy films 
Why did Spielberg bring back so many characters from Raiders
Just how bad is early years CGI exactly?
We reminisce about an earlier BFE episode
Ian continues to try and fix Logan from last week
Whether or not Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade is the Best Film Ever

We're back with another round of our Mail Call episode.  Russell the Postie has dropped off a special springtime delivery and Georgia's working in the mail room to deliver the questions from Friends of the Podcast & The Fledgling Fandom to your favourite TransAtlantic podcasting team.  Hear Ian, Liam, and Georgia answer some of your questions in our May 2024 edition.  Key questions this time include:
How does the BFE decide which films to do?
Which BFE concepts might come back in the near future?  Why have some of them been gone for a while?
Who are our fantasy dream guests for the pod?
What's the BFE origin story?
What's the best TV we've ever seen?
What advice would we give our younger selves?
If you have a question for the next time the mailbag is open.  Catch us on Twitter at @bestfilmeverpod and use the hashtag #AskBFE
