  2. Disclosure Day

    6月15日

    Disclosure Day

    If we learned anything from Disclosure Day it's that revealing the truth is so important, and our truth is that we both absolutely hated this movie. We try to decipher why exactly Steven Spielberg's newest alien movie got under our skin so much, and why it's been so divisive in general. Our conversation is full of spoilers and what SOME might call "rants" about the script, the story, the failed metaphors, the naivety of boomers, the politics, and of course the size discrepancy between all the aliens.

  3. Masters of the Universe

    6月8日

    Masters of the Universe

    Neither Monika nor Emily had any relationship to the He-Man character going into this one, and yet we've been genuinely charmed by the Masters of the Universe movie. This week they get into why a campy, slightly homoerotic, two and a half hour fantasy epic about a blonde himbo in a leather harness and his many friends somehow... worked? We know! We're surprised too. We cover a lot in this one, like the surprisingly great fight sequences, Jared Leto being hidden behind a skeleton face (best case Leto scenario really), Alison Brie's witch with a razor sharp bob, the three post credit scenes of a cinematic universe that may never be, and a lot of charming tangents you will definitely all love!

  4. I Love Boosters

    5月25日

    I Love Boosters

    Filmmaker (And dare we say...Auteur) Boots Riley is back with I Love Boosters, a candy colored surrealist crime caper starring Keke Palmer, Naomi Ackie, Taylour Paige, Demi Moore, LaKeith Stanfield and Don Cheadle. This movie was a damn blast but also left both of us with a lot to chew on. Enjoy our full spoiler conversation where the two of us try to figure out how to talk about Marxist theory, teleportation devices, soul sucking demons, and Boots Riley's vision of a Bay Area Looney Toons movie.

  5. Obsession

    5月18日

    Obsession

    Director/writer Curry Barker's first feature film Obsession really split the podcast right down the middle: Monika hated it, and Emily loved it so much she saw it twice. We discuss our very different takeaways from this horror movie about a wish gone wrong, while also discovering some things we actually agree on. **This is a Full Spoiler Conversation** Join the conversation with us below: https://www.instagram.com/mediumliterate/ https://www.tiktok.com/@mediumliterate https://www.youtube.com/@MediumLiterate https://www.patreon.com/c/mediumliterate Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/christian-larssen/happy-street License code: B9EXR1D9EIBQLKXT

  6. The Sheep Detectives and Hokum

    5月11日

    The Sheep Detectives and Hokum

    This week we did an extremely normal double feature!! First up is Hokum, a dark Irish folklore horror written and directed by Damian McCarthy and starring Adam Scott. Hokum is part witch story and part "uh oh, the real villain is MAN." They spend the first twenty minutes here before moving on to the main event... (25:09) The Sheep Detectives is a live action talking animal cozy mystery from Amazon MGM, written by Craig Mazin (you know, the Chernobyl and The Last of Us guy?) and directed by Kyle Balda the director of the Minions movies! The Sheep Detectives has an all star cast including Hugh Jackman, Bryan Cranston, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Nicholas Braun, Regina Hall, Brett Goldstein, Rhys Darby, Chris O'Dowd and Bella Ramsey. A gentle vegetarian shepherd is murdered and his sheep decide to solve the crime. It is also, somehow, an incredibly moving meditation on grief. Monika does not like children's media...Monika cried?

  7. The Devil Wears Prada 2

    5月4日

    The Devil Wears Prada 2

    This week we're talking about the long awaited buzzy new sequel to the 2006 classic. In the years between, the villain has switched from mean boss to a media landscape run by billionaires, but the clothes are still fun. We also get into our thoughts on basic modern movie theater manners.

  8. Mother Mary

    4月27日

    Mother Mary

    Mother Mary (A24) had one of the most exciting casts of the year with Anne Hathaway and Michaela Coel. Despite that, Monika and Emily have complicated feelings about this movie. They'll talk about it all! ✅ Having a complicated creative history with someone ✅ A ghost made of red fabric ✅ How the whole movie feels like it was meant to be a stage play What worked? What didn't? What did the ending mean? (please, we're really asking!)
