    Episode 58 - Kids (1995) - "Summer Lovin', Got Me Some AIDS"

    Youth is wasted on the young, especially when the youth is too wasted to remember what the hell happened. This week on the pod, we’re closing out Bummer Summer with the granddaddy of cautionary tales to the restless youth of America with Larry Clark’s 1995 film “Kids”. Join us as we revel in the horror of what it’s like to experience this film through the lens of adults and reminisce on our own teenage f*****y. We’ll cover the very messy and questionable production history of this film and how the final product feels at once a true authentic representation of teens in America, and outright exploitation of those same teens. It’s a mixed bag to say the least. Also discussed in today’s episode; Just how much sex are teens actually having, separating the nostalgia from the child pornography, and is there really any ethical way to depict teens as they truly are? Also, Kids; wear a damn condom! All this and more on this week’s episode of “I Didn’t Need to See That!”  Follow us:  Email: Ididntneedtoseethatpod@gmail.com Instagram: @Ididntneedtoseethatpod

    Episode 57 - Requiem For A Dream (2000) - "Heroin Rules Everything Around Me"

    This week, bring the tissues and some Narcan because we’re about to overdose on sadness. This week we’re watching everyone’s favorite anti-drug PSA via way of Darren Aronofsky with his 2000 dram “Requiem for a Dream”. Join as Pete dives down memory lane with his first encounter with a movie that was so bleak it made him want to take a shower, and Aaron comes at this without the fondness of 2000’s filmmaking style. While we may not be able to agree on whether or not the film still works for a modern audience, we can absolutely agree on a few things. The score absolutely holds up, Marlon Wayans is way too ripped to play a drug addict, and there’s no such thing as a fun heroin movie. It also goes without saying that no matter what our feelings on this movie are, this is a film whose imprint can be felt on cinema even to this day. Plus, Spoilers for the new film “Eddington”, learn that James Gunn gives a shit about us, and sometimes people need to be in a psyche ward. Get ready because this one’s a sad one!

    Episode 56 - Stroszek (1977) - "Vintage Midwestern Sprawl"

    This week on the pod, we’re heading overseas to bleak, cold world of Berlin in the 1970’s; but only for a moment before we break free to the sunny shores of… Wisconsin! Yes we’re continuing our mini-theme on breaking the facade of the American dream, only this time through the eyes of an immigrant seeking better opportunities and cheaper beer in the 1977 film; Stroszek. On today’s episode, we talk briefly about how Stroszek, and last week’s film “They Shoot Horses, Don’t They?” are in conversation with one another; and while in this film the American dream isn’t literally breaking your body, it sure is going to break your spirit. Try as our beloved, drunken main character might; once you’ve got a single knock against you in this life, it’s nearly impossible to get yourself back up. Also discussed today, our first time coverage of a Werner Herzog film, the endless mirroring of our main character as a prototype of Charlie Kelly, and good ol’ vintage, midwestern sprawl.

    Episode 55 - They Shoot Horses, Don't They? (1969) - "Ain't That The American Way"

    Yowza, Yowza, Yowza! Welcome back to another great episode of I Didn’t Need To See that, and boy do we got a show for you. Join us as we celebrate one of the finest era’s in American History, an era so foundational, so inspiring, so truly American we couldn’t help but put “Great” Right in it’s name as we journey back to the Great Depression with 1969’s “They Shoot Horses, Don’t They?” That’s right, saddle up as we run these patriots like the dogs they are. On this episode we break down the true, existential timelessness of the message of this film. In a world where hope is a sham and opportunity is just a word we use to exploit the poor for the entertainment of the rich, there’s only one solution… to DANCE! Also on today’s episode, the tragedy of Gig Young, we find out that American existentialist literature isn’t actually so popular in America, and witness the return… of Dobbytoks!

    Episode 54 - Happiness (1998) - "Happiness is a Warm C*m"

    This week on the pod, The pursuit of happiness is all full of crooks, perverts and pedophiles as we continue our seasonal slog of Bummer Summer with a very special film about family. We learn just how dark a comedy can get as we watched Todd Solondz’s 1998 “semenal” film, “Happiness”. Join us as we foray into the first Todd Solondz film for the podcast and contextualize just what makes this director a perfect contender for the podcast. One of the strongest attributes of the film is just how un-PC it is, yet how Solondz navigates the tone so deftly as to give us reprehensible yeet very human characters. After all, aren’t we all just a bunch of perverted little weirdos ourselves behind closed doors? Also discussed on the pod, Bad Dads, MILF Summer, and an ending that’ll blow your socks off (get it?). Though the everyday horrors persist, we (somehow) continue doing this depressing bit for the podcast!

    Episode 53 - Melancholia (2011) - "Don't Worry, Be Happy"

    It’s Summertime here on the I Didn’t Need To See that Podcast, and this year, we’re treating you with a series of films for those of you that recognize summer for what it is; abysmal heat, the smell of garbage in the air, and that pressure to go outside just because the anxiety in your brain is telling you you’re a lazy piece of shit if you don’t.  That’s right baby, for the next few weeks on the podcast, it’s going to be a “Bummer Summer”! We’re dedicating this summer season to the cinema of despair, the melange of malaise, the season of sorrow. And kicking things off, we’re revisiting one of our favorite fun time guys with Lars Von Trier’s 2011 film “Melancholia”. Join us as we bask in the the wondrous performance from Kirsten Dunst as she gives us one of the best depictions of depression committed to cinema; and yes, we’ll talk about THAT press junket at the premiere. Pack your swimsuits and your Zoloft, it’s Bummer Summer here on “I Didn’t Need to See That!”  Follow us:  Email: Ididntneedtoseethatpod@gmail.com Instagram: @Ididntneedtoseethatpod

    Episode 52 - Man Bites Dog (1992) - “It’s the Last Season, We Gotta Kill Some Kids”

    This week on the pod, We’re being taken all over Belgium as we learn the finer about the finer things in life, such as architecture, music, history, and of course the best way to ballast a corpses. On this episode we watched the laugh-a-minute riot that is 1992’s “Man Bites Dog”. Join us as we talk about what we consider one of the best, least talked about villains in film; or at least the most captivating. We also marvel at how this project that seemingly started with no agenda other than 4 friends wanting to make a low budget filmed turned into one of the greatest commentary’s on media violence. Also discussed on today’s episode, the true art of serial killing? Is 2025 the summer of Mormon-Maxing? And which Celebrity’s night of regret do YOU want to be?

    Episode 51 - Boogie Nights (1997) - "Video Killed the Porn Star"

    Spring is here and we’ve got us another birthday on our hands here on the IDNTST Pod. This week we’re celebrating Aarons birthday with trip back to a simpler time, one of fast cars, loose women and as much cocaine as you can inhale! This week we watched 1997’s ode to the golden age of adult film making; Boogie Nights! Admittedly, this film is a bit of a break in format, but hey a man kills himself at a party and another goes to jail for child pornography, so as far as we’re concerned this is still on brand for us! Join us as we bask in the love of filmmaking that this movie really showcases, and how even though it’s about the death of Porn stars into the 80’s, there’s also some modern comparisons to the changes in film consumption into the 90’s. Also discussed, All time bitch mother rants, how much did porn stars actually make in their heyday, and after all is said and done, was the real villain behind the rubber mask just Reaganism? this and more on this weeks episode of “I Didn’t Need to See That!”  Follow us:  Email: Ididntneedtoseethatpod@gmail.com Instagram: @Ididntneedtoseethatpod
