Each week actor & comedian Paul Scheer (Black Monday, The League) and film critic Amy Nicholson (LA Times Chief Film Critic ) watch and discuss the best movies out there. From the classics to new releases and every indie film in-between. Along the way, they’ll dissect iconic scenes, spotlight their favorite characters, and decide if these movies still stand the test of time.

Listening to the Home Alone episode, and it turns out that Amy is an Uncle Frank sympathizer. Disturbing, though it helps give context to the general attitude and demeanor of most of her commentary.
Phew.

I’ve listened to this podcast for a long time, and I will continue to listen. It’s entertaining. But that’s all it is. The interstellar episode really cemented how unserious they can be. They are not serious about watching these films and talking about them thoroughly. The clear example where they were like well look at least the characters acknowledge that they don’t know, proceed to play clip, but then cut off clip where the very next lines explain how they actually do understand and is an integral part of the plot. Just embarrassing. It’s not about liking a movie or not, that’s criticism. But to blatantly show that they aren’t even paying attention to these movies or trying to understand them even slightly deeper than the most superficial level is rough. It’s one episode a week, put the least bit of time and effort into it.

Supposedly discussing the best films of all time, but I don’t see The Great Muppet Caper anywhere…
This pod is great. Never mind the woke-spotters. Telling it like it is just rankles some people.

Paul is great, he’s our ‘everyman’, and I love his takes on movies. While Amy is our movie historian/reviewer/critic and she deserves respect despite how some hateful trolls claim her political ideas are driving her opinions, but since everything is politics... whatever. When this new breed of outright fascist/RINO conservatives (who probably voted for the adjudicated R’ist, Russian Asset, Traitor) start pointing to SJW’s & wokeness I have to wonder if they can even see how their embracing of fascism is the thoroughly un-American activity it is. This Podcast still deserves ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️’s. And the petty Trolls can go to X for takes on their favorite Kevin Sorbo propaganda Movies and leave these American treasures alone. Great Movies and great analysis. And we really need this now that the fool has his hands back in the Mac & Cheese.
