    Watching The Shape of Water while Eating Fishsticks

    In this episode, Ray, Nate, and Tracy discuss the winner of the Best Picture Oscar from 2017; The Shape of Water. Directed by Guillermo del Toro, The Shape of Water stars Sally Hawkins as Elisa Esposito, a mute cleaner at a military base in Baltimore, and falls in love with an "Amphibian Man" played by venerated suit actor Doug Jones. Also starring Richard Jenkins, Michael Shannon, Octavia Spencer, and Michael Stuhlbarg, the film acts as del Toro's love letter to classic monster movies like Creature from the Black Lagoon while adding his own spin on what would happen if beauty truly fell for the beast.  0:00 - 21:20 - Weekly Catchup/Ghost of Tsushima Initial Thoughts 21:20 - 55:18 - Shape of Water Discussion

    This week, the guys watched The Disaster Artist (2017).  Directed by and starring James Franco as Tommy Wiseau, The Disaster Artist tells the story of how Wiseau's film The Room was made. The screenplay for The Disaster Artist was adapted from a book of the same name written by Greg Sestero and Tom Bissell. Greg Sestero is a close friend of Tommy Wiseau's and also starred in The Room.

The Disaster Artist is equal parts biographical drama and buddy comedy and Ray, Nate, and Tracy have no shortage of laughs when discussing the film or its source material.

    Cleaning Capone's Bedpan

    This week's movie chosen by Nate was Capone.  Capone, directed by Josh Trank, tells the story of Al Capone's final years of his life while dealing with the psychological side effects of late-stage syphilis. Starring Tom Hardy as the title gangster, Linda Cardellini as his wife Mae, as well as Matt Dillon and Kyle MacLachlan, this film teeters on its own madness as plot lines are left unresolved, performances are over the top, and Tom Hardy defecates himself on-screen three times too many.  Afterwards, the guys clean their palates by discussing their all-time favorite gangster films.

    Gentlemen talking about The Gentlemen

    This week, the trio first discuss the protests against police brutality rising up throughout the country and the world. After some cathartic venting in support of the movement, the guys discuss one of Tracy's favorite movies of 2020, The Gentlemen.  The Gentlemen, directed by Guy Ritchie, is the latest in Ritchie's take on the action-comedy vein of British crime films. Featuring an ensemble cast of Matthew McConaughey, Charlie Hunnam, Henry Golding, Colin Farrell, Hugh Grant, and Michelle Dockery, The Gentelmen is equal parts outrageous and entertaining.  0:00 - Opening Monologue/Intro 7:50 - What we're Playing/Watching 16:07 - The Gentlemen Analysis
