    The weirdest of 2024!

    *Audio fixed slightly!*  We're back for 2025! Please excuse this delayed new year's episode (and the subpar sound quality... entirely Hanaa's fault). A lot of... things are happening so we hope this episode can bring at least a bit of levity to our friends'/listeners' lives. remus is back and we recapped the three weirdest movies we each watched in 2024: Dream Scenario (2023) I Saw the TV Glow (2024) I'm Thinking of Ending Things (2020) Piece by Piece (2024) Dahomey (2024) Megalopolis (2024) Theme music by Jim Combs from Pixabay Contact Instagram: @ibrwpod, @h1ghfantasy and @remusmj Email: ibrwpod@gmail.com Please rate and review, thanks for listening!!

    Vampire's Kiss

    Hello again and welcome to Season 2 of the pod (Hanaa decided we're doing seasons now)! This belated Halloween episode was co-hosted by Hanaa's younger brother Taha! We watched the essential Nicolas Cage film Vampire's Kiss (1989) and talked preserving Over the Garden Wall, Hanaa's obsession with the earlier Nic Cage feature Moonstruck (1987), Sam Barlow's Immortality and the planned American Psycho remake. remus on Letterboxd Theme music by Jim Combs from Pixabay Contact Instagram: @ibrwpod, @h1ghfantasy and @remusmj Email: ibrwpod@gmail.com Please rate and review, thanks for listening!!

    The People's Joker

    Happy Pride month from the podcast!

Hanaa officially joins the Web Gang (THWIP THWIP) and remarks on how sand is having a big cinematic moment this year.

    Mad God

    We. Are. Back. remus and Hanaa watched Phil Tippett's grotesque labor of love Mad God (2022). Sometimes your child is an experimental stop-motion movie that took 30 years to make. Hanaa saw The Zone of Interest (2023) and thankfully no one was loudly eating chips in the theater. remus shares that they watched the indie darling Madame Web (2024) enough times for the both of them!

    Repo! The Genetic Opera

    Welcome back to It's Been Real Weird podcast! For the first episode of 2024 we watched Repo! The Genetic Opera (2008). remus and Hanaa reminisce on the early 2000s; a time defined by emo, Evanescence and John Kramer/Jigsaw's Home Depot patronage. Hanaa looks forward to the Sundance Film Festival and remus talks Pedro Almodóvar's All About My Mother (1999). robin on Letterboxd Theme music by Jim Combs from Pixabay Contact Instagram: @ibrwpod, @h1ghfantasy and @remusmj Email: ibrwpod@gmail.com Please rate and review, thanks for listening!!

    Divine Intervention

    Happy Holidays from It's Been Real Weird! For the last episode of the year we covered Divine Intervention (2002). It's a beautifully surreal and satirical film that evokes what it could mean to have the right to grow old in Palestine, despite the physical and existential threats posed by settler colonialism. Spoilers! remus indulged Hanaa and we spent way too long discussing May December (2023), which naturally led to Hanaa asking remus all about Riverdale.

    Flesh for Frankenstein

    Welcome back to It's Been Real Weird podcast! We couldn't watch Big Shark so we made an episode about Flesh for Frankenstein (1973) instead. Hanaa and remus remark on accidentally choosing another movie that features incest, and remus talks about this film's lovably deranged Catholic director Paul Morrissey. Hanaa talks about HBO's The Young Pope and remus shares about Nathan Fielder's latest show, The Curse.
