FANCY Fantasy Football Podcast Patrick Polk

Episode Notes
Welcome back to Part 2, the finale, of the FANCY Halloween Movie Spectacular. I would again like to sincerely thank my guests, Abby, John, and Jen for watching a bunch of Halloween movies and chatting with me about them for a looooooong time. As I mention in the intro, this episode begins with more talk with all four of us, and then a brief chat with just Jen and me, and then finally I wrap it up with my thoughts on the movies that I alone watched, including most importantly Deadly Friend and Magic Magic.

The theme music is "Downtown" by deeB, from the Internet Archive.

Episode Notes
Welcome to the annual discussion of the Oscar Best Picture nominees, and joining in the discussion, as usual, is Jen. There were ten nominees! So much to discuss! Two quick warnings heading into this one: 1) There are some mild spoilers throughout, so skip the entire discussion for that movie, based on the timestamps below, if you're sensitive about spoilers. There's only one particularly big spoiler, which is for Nightmare Alley, and so I've specially tagged that one. 2) Jen and I are somewhat down on the movies this year, and so it's not all singing praises. But we really liked a couple of them!

Here are the timestamps for you to carefully navigate the episode if you choose:

Intro: 0:00:00 to 0:01:32
Dune: 0:01:32 to 0:06:26
Nightmare Alley: 0:06:26 to 0:12:15
PARTICULARLY SPOILER-Y NIGHTMARE ALLEY PART: 0:09:22 to 0:12:15
Don't Look Up: 0:12:15 to 0:19:38
Power of the Dog: 0:19:38 to 0:26:10
West Side Story: 0:26:10 to 0:32:14
King Richard: 0:32:14 to 0:38:17
Drive My Car: 0:38:17 to 0:46:42
Belfast: 0:46:42 to 0:49:50
Licorice Pizza 0:49:50 to 1:03:58
CODA: 1:03:58 to 1:29:05 (but Licorice Pizza tangent 1:15:12 to 1:17:17)
Viewing Omission Regrets: 1:29:05 to 1:33:49
Closing 1:33:49 to 1:34:15

As always, the intro music is a minimal version of "Reflections" by Anti-Pop Consortium from the Free Music Database. Thanks for listening!

Episode Notes
Please join Johnny and me for the second half of our incredibly lengthy, but hopefully enjoyable, discussion about Groundhog Day. In this installment we finally get around to talking about our favorite and least favorite parts of the movie, the message of the movie, and also a truly unfortunate video game adaptation.

As always the theme song is a modified version of "Reflections" by Anti-Pop Consortium from the Free Music Database. The other audio clips and sound effects are used for commentary purposes and fun and constitute fair use and whatnot and please don't sue me for making this for the ten people who listen.

Thanks and have a good one!

Episode Notes
Join me as I try to continue my streak of holiday-themed movie discussions with what is arguably one of the best, most consistent holiday genres--Groundhog Day movies. I am joined by good friend and fellow time loop fan Johnny Rhoads and we . . . pretty much never stop talking about Groundhog Day and time loop media in general. Our conversation went so long that this very long podcast is not even close to the whole discussion, and I will be putting out part two soon. In the meantime, happy Groundhog Day, and go watch Groundhog Day!

As always the theme is a modified version of Reflections by Anti-Pop Consortium. Clips from Groundhog Day and the Making of Groundhog Day are my attempts at fair use. Byeeeeee!
