    The Best of the Year Lists!

    The Best of the Year Lists!

    This week we are taking on the Best of the Year, but it's also our first episode that we are also doing on video. 
    Things might sound a little strange here and there, and that'll be why. Also, this one got away from us a bit on length, mostly because we had a lot of Honorable Mentions.
    It was a wild year to be sure, which made lists both easier and harder, but at the very least ours aren't the same as everyone else's.
    Please also check us out on YouTube, and like and subscribe there, etc.

    The Mad Dash Episode - Reviews To Round Out The Year

    The Mad Dash Episode - Reviews To Round Out The Year

    This week we actually just cranked through a lot of films to end the year before next week when we dare to offer you our Best of the Year list.
    We hit too many to go over, including such winners as Past Lives and Dream Scenario, and ended up with some of our biggest differences ever, which was really surprising in some cases. This was largely a result of Shane hating everything and me being a sucker... apparently.
    Tune in to find out about several movies you need to check out so that you are fully informed (let's say) going into the Best of the Year.

    Oppenheimer, May December, American Fiction & More

    Oppenheimer, May December, American Fiction & More

    As we run headlong toward our Best of the Year list, and the Can't Win Awards, we're trying like hell to get through as many films as possible... and it only works so well.
    This week we finally get to Oppenheimer, which hit us pretty much as we expected... tune into to find out what that means. We're also looking at two real gems of the year, even if we didn't rate one of them that highly, May December and American Fiction.

    Killers of the Flower Moon Review - Plus Award Drama & TV "Special Note"

    Killers of the Flower Moon Review - Plus Award Drama & TV "Special Note"

    This week we finally look at Killers of the Flower Moon as we head into our wrap up of as many movies we didn't get to as possible before our Best of the Year list and our "Can't Win" Awards.
    Killers didn't really impress us, as is perhaps the case with several of the biggest titles this year, and we'll let you know exactly why.
    Also, in a bit of a strange move as we waste time when we have better things to do, we talk about the Oscar snubs and how I unfortunately caused them, or predicted them, or something.
    Finally, we're briefly revisiting The Night Agent and only because I mentioned it previously on the show after only watching three episodes.

    Critics Choice Awards Winners Plus The Holdovers & Saltburn

    Critics Choice Awards Winners Plus The Holdovers & Saltburn

    The Critics Choice Awards happened and it was a great show once again. This week we look over the winners and let you know how we feel about them (and sometimes what I actually voted for), and we review (though rather quickly) The Holdovers and Saltburn.
    The Holdovers got Paul Giamatti the win, and as we mentioned in a previous episode, he deserved it, and it was a year with some serious competition.
    Saltburn hasn't managed a lot of love, and is becoming famous simply for the talk surrounding a couple of... well, odd, scenes, but the follow up to Promising Young Woman is still quite good... if odd.

    Critics’ Choice Awards Noms & Leave the World Behind Review

    Critics’ Choice Awards Noms & Leave the World Behind Review

    You may be expecting our usual, end of year shotgun blast of reviews where we try to hit as many movies as possible each episode, but because this year threw off our ability to get a couple of episodes out - even as we prepare to add video to the mix - we've decided to run through some of the major categories of the Critics' Choice Awards nominations in order to highlight and discuss said nominees that way.
    We will get you our take on several of the most noteworthy films that way, and review them "better" later, so at least you have some ideas going into award season.
    We are also covering Leave the World Behind this week, though briefly, and mostly for a quick laugh.

Great Listen!

I’ve been listening to Are You Screening? for a while now and absolutely love the show! Marc and Shane provide nuanced and entertaining perspectives on current movies, TV shows, and award shows. They also are good about letting you know where things are streaming and what you may be missing out on.
They are honest with their ratings/ opinions and do back them up with detailed explanations. They do not have the rigid and uptight feeling while stating their reviews like those you can easily come across elsewhere - It’s often just the overall humor of hearing two friends chatting about things to watch(or skip) while still being informative. If you’re looking for varied discussion of movies and tv then this is for you.

Great podcast

Like these guys a lot. Despite the other review, I actually think it has a down-home feel, not a pretentious one. Just two well-informed friends talking about movies, with a dog often jangling its collar or making other such noise in the background (but not enough to be annoying, just endearing). Their opinions often differ but they make their arguments without descending into a shout fest. To the other reviewer - that last sentence is a doozy.
