    Ep 49.5: The Princess Bride (1987) — A Rob Reiner Classic

    It's time for a wedding! This week, we are driving into Rob Reiner's classic, "The Princess Bride," which lived on in the cultural zeitgeist for decades after its release. Neither of us has seen this in a good while, so we figured that we could dive into it and see if it holds up... Is this still iconic? What do you think of The Princess Bride?

    Ep 49: Short Films: "Meshes of the Afternoon" (1943) & "Bottle Rocket" (1993)

    This week, we got to dive into two very different short films! We tackled "Meshes of the Afternoon", Maya Deren's innovative and dreamlike exploration at the front of American avant garde cinema, and we looked at "Bottle Rocket", which was expanded on in Wes Anderson's feature debut. Both films offer a lot of interesting ideas in very different ways! Together, it's less than half an hour of footage, so join us as we dive into the world of short films!

    Ep 48.5: Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026) — Box Office Record Breaker

    The newest entry in the MCU is out! But more importantly, Spider-Man: Brand New Day should feel separate enough from the many Disney+ shows for anyone to enjoy. It's packed with great Insomniac's Spider-Man-inspired action, an emotional core, and a bunch of surprises. We recommend you go out and watch this one, but with the way it has Hulk Smashed its way through the box office in the first couple of days, the chances are you already have!

    Ep 48: Philip Seymour Hoffman: "The Master" (2012) & "Jack Goes Boating" (2010)

    This week, we are diving into the roles of the late great Philip Seymour Hoffman! His range and emotional depth are hallmarks of his appearance in any film, but we picked two that we were excited to chat about. Paul Thomas Anderson's "The Master" from 2012 shows his ability to play such a unique and striking character, and his own directorial effort, "Jack Goes Boating" from 2010 shows his prowess as an underspoken, shy character.

    Ep 47.5: The Odyssey (2026) — An Epic IMAX Experience

    The Odyssey has been one of the most highly anticipated movies of the year, and it is finally time. An epic journey that reflects deeply on war, trust, honor, and society, Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey brings us back to the world of oral storytelling as we experience Odysseus' voyage home firsthand. Nolan is a master at non-linear storytelling, and he does this 3000 year old story justice. We've got you covered with a spoiler-free section and a spoiler review as well as an early rating recap. What did you think of The Odyssey?

    Ep 47: Sight & Sound Greatest of All Time: "Mirror" (1975) & "La Jetée" (1962)

    This week, we are tackling the greatest movies of all time, according to the Sight and Sound list that's compiled by their poll of critics, directors, and cinema experts! We picked two movies that we feel embody the list, "Mirror" by Andrei Tarkovsky, and "La Jetée" by Chris Marker. These are both experimental, artsy, and very unique. They are also both movies that are hard to explore without someone seeing them, so we recommend (as always) that you jump in with us after checking these movies out! What are your thoughts on these types of unique takes on cinema and memory?

    Ep 46.5: Supergirl (2026) — Is It That Bad?

    Supergirl may have flopped at the box office this weekend, but is it as bad as the headlines are all saying? We found some things to like about the movie and some issues with it, but the headlines will always try to exaggerate and get the most divisive views out there. It may not be a perfect movie, but it's got some charm. What did you think of Supergirl?

    Ep 46: Zombies: "Shaun of the Dead" (2004) & "Scooby Doo on Zombie Island" (1998)

    Our category was Zombie Movies this week, so we picked... Scooby Doo? Well, at least Shane picked Shaun of the Dead, one of the greatest horror comedies of all time that leans on the tropes of the genre. Meanwhile, Ryan picked a childhood favorite that pulled him into horror, Scooby Doo on Zombie Island, which is packed with the gang exploring the haunted island, finding ghosts, zombies, and were-cats.
