The Phantom of the Opera (2004) feat. Bartees Strange

Prepare yourself for bloat and bombast because we're discussing Joel Schumacher's 2004 adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera for its 20th anniversary! Tagging in for the conversation is queer musician Bartees Strange, who provides some much needed musical insight on the film. Join us as we try to figure out why this movie doesn't sing (sorry) the way it should. It's a constant war of style vs. substance, with a lot of visuals that look great....but mean nothing. Adding insult to injury is the perplexing decision to cast non-singer Gerard Butler as the Phantom, who makes some questionable decisions regarding the villain's characterization. Plus: Emmy Rossum's breakout role, Patrick Wilson's Lord Farquad haircut, reprise after reprise after reprise, golden arm candelabra holders and a runaway chandelier. ***Episode Correction: During his prodcution history, Trace says that the stage production of The Phantom of the Opera premiered in 1968, but it was actually 1986.

I See You (2019)

We're celebrating director Adam Randall's under seen puzzle film I See You (2019) for its fifth anniversary. From the film's terrible marketing to its plethora of twists, there's a lot to discuss, including a potentially uncomfortable reading about (implied) sexual molestation. Plus: queer writer Devon Graye, Helen Hunt's return, phrogging in horror, and *that* score! Questions? Comments? Snark?

The Stylist (2020) feat. Lindsay Traves

Wield your clippers and marvel at your Scalp Shrine because we're discussing Jill Gevargizian's feature directorial debut The Stylist (2020)! Tagging in for the conversation is returning guest (and resident wig expert) Lindsay Traves! Join us as we dive into the mind of protagonist Claire, played wonderfully by Najarra Townsend while lauding Gevargizian's stylish (heh heh) filmmaking techniques. Plus: a discussion on salon etiquette, some supremely squelchy foley work and the world's cheapest wedding hairstyle ($65?! Really?!). Questions? Comments? Snark?

Creep 2 (2017) feat. Brooke Solomon

Log onto 'Encounters' and dust off your Peachfuzz mask because we're talking Creep 2 (2017). Along for the ride is The Queer Quadrant co-host Brooke Solomon, who finds plenty to appreciate in a sequel that is more complex than its predecessor. Plus: Praise for both Duplass and bisexual co-star Desiree Akhavan, debating male vs female nudity, dismissing claims that Sara is "dumb", Coppola wine, and speculation about Shudder's The Creep Tapes Questions?

Really fun commentary on some great and not so great films, but always find myself laughing out loud with these two wonderful guys. Keep up the great work!
Always entertaining and informative

This is how I like my podcasts: always entertaining and well-researched, with good chemistry between the hosts and with their guests. There's a warm and easy dynamic between Joe and Trace that makes you feel welcome, and helps navigate some of the more difficult movies and themes they sometimes discuss. I really appreciate how varied their programmation is! From light movies (Freaky, Student Bodies...) to darker ones (Calvaire, Deadgirl...), and even the occasional TV shows (the Chucky TV series, the Hannibal TV series), there's something for everyone, and you always learn something - be it on the movie/show production, its reception, or how it relates to queerness and queer themes. You can sense that Joe and Trace work hard on this podcast, and it shows. 5 stars no notes!
Great time!
