Hello Listener. We want to play a game... This week we spotlight the work of the Master of Modern Horror, James Wan. From "Saw" his mega-franchise launching debut in 2004 to his franchise launching "The Conjuring" and established franchise high points "Aquaman" and "Furious 7," we discuss and dissect Wan's mastery of cinematic language and how he uses it against his audience to scare the crap out of us. What's the scariest movie you've seen? What other filmmaker do you want to hear us cover? You can let us know your thoughts on this episode by emailing in at makingascenemail@gmail.com.

What's the plan then? Right. We do the intro, mention Spaced briefly, move on to his movies, talk about how Michael Cera sucks - "I'm so sorry, Michael" - then we disagree about Baby Driver, call out Ansel Elgort, hole up, have a cup of tea and wait for this whole thing to blow over. Oh yea, we are spotlighting Edgar Wright. You can let us know your thoughts on this episode by emailing in at makingascenemail@gmail.com.

No! We aren't going anywhere so stop asking! This week we dip our toes back into the world of Television. This visit we talk through the treacherous world of TV finales. Some of the most impactful episodes, finales and the final season leading up to them can make or break the legacy of a show. In some cases, you get a cherry on top of a nearly perfect series and a satisfying conclusion to a cast of characters that you have come to know and love. In other cases, you get Game Of Thrones.

This week's episode tackles our most controversial filmmaker yet, outside of Uwe Boll. M. Night Shyamalan has been writing and directing for well over 20 years. His distinctive style and tendencies give the guys plenty to chew on.  From young children seeing dead people, to old children seeing dead people, Shyamalan's unwavering dedication to seeing his artistic vision through (for better or worse) has left him as one of the most debated and talked about directors of the 21st century.

Have you ever wondered whether Rotten Tomatoes is the right source to go to when deciding your next movie night? Do you suspect that Rotten Tomatoes may be part of a cabal hell bent on a New World Order with A24 at the helm? One of you is on to something. The other is REALLY on to something.
