    046 KATIE'S BIRTHDAY: PURE LUNACY

    It's Katie's birthday! Run for the hills, estudiantes! Ol' Katie K is turning 40 this year, so share all the love! Just kidding, she's that Taylor Swift age.

    045 Gale Hawthorne Is A War Criminal: The Shaky Cam and Steady Adaptation of The Hunger Games "Trilogy" - Mockingjay Part 2

    Did you have a nightmare? I have nightmares, too. Someday I'll explain it to you, why they came, why they won't ever go away, but I'll tell you how I survive it. I make a list in my head... of all the good things I've seen someone do. Every little thing I can remember. It's like a podcast. I do it over and over. Gets a little tedious after all these years, but... there are much worse podcasts to listen to, estudiantes. We come to the end of our Hunger Games syllabus! Professors Malu and Katie revel in their victory by finally breaking down the true dilemma of the Hunger Games adaptations: Should it have been a "trilogy" or a trilogy? Malu parries! Katie pounces! We learn what foley design is! Did Francis Lawrence do right by Suzanne six years ago? You enjoy this podcast! Real or not real? Real. Duh. They also play a game. Please rate, review, and subscribe on your podcatcher of choice, you defenders of the hopeless. Nathan Zed's video essay The Death of the Teen Dystopian Era.

    044 Gale Hawthorne Is A War Criminal: The Shaky Cam and Steady Adaptation of The Hunger Games "Trilogy" - Mockingjay Part 1

    I have a message for you estudiantes. You can torture us and bomb us and burn our districts to the ground. But do you see that? Fire is catching... and if we burn... you burn with us! Wow, that was agro. Yet... appropriate? Take heed, beloved students! Professors Katie and Malu bring you a hot and fresh serving of that tasty PanEm delicacy known as Teen Dystopia Forced Love Triangle! We move bravely onward to 2014's third film in the "trilogy" - Mockingjay Part 1! Lawrences Francis and Jennifer get real and so does the camerawork and screenwriting! They really try and make Gale happen harder than "fetch." Politics get prickly and Professor Katie challenges anyone who thinks Part 1 is boring to a fistfight! Malu agrees more or less. Ice is broken and a game is played. Whistle sound effect. Please rate, review, and subscribe on your podcatcher of choice, you poor left behind wigs.

    043 Gale Hawthorne Is A War Criminal: The Shaky Cam and Steady Adaptation of The Hunger Games "Trilogy" - Catching Fire

    Estudiantes, I want you to forget everything you think you know about Film School Professionals. Last episode was child's play. This episode, you're dealing with all experienced professors. Oh boy, here we go. We're cooking with gas now. Professors Malu and Katie get serious about donning their flames and break down 2013's Catching Fire (dir: Francis Lawrence), the second film in the Hunger Games "Trilogy"! They talk aspect ratios, jalapeno popper dust, axes, and who else even knows what! It's a long one. Mercy. Chins up, smiles on.

    042 Gale Hawthorne Is A War Criminal: The Shaky Cam and Steady Adaptation of The Hunger Games "Trilogy" - The Hunger Games

    I don't know how else to put this, estudiantes: make sure Professors Katie and Malu remember you. It's a brand new syllabus, children, and your favorite film school professors are cashing in a chip: they're diving back into their groady and grisly childhoods to discuss the original (not original) battle royale movie... It's Hunger Games time! May the odds volunteer as tribute, you mockingjays! The inscrutable instructors jump in headfirst into the beginning of the series, Gary Ross' 2012 adaptation of Suzanne Collins' The Hunger Games. There's talk of Peeta and Snow and Katniss and you better believe there's some hating on Gale. Seriously, fuck Gale. Then they play a game! Whistle sound!

Then they blow all that goodwill by playing a rollicking game of FSP Trivia Taboo! Please rate, review, and subscribe on your podcatcher of choice, you watch thieves.
