    Richard Linklater's Before Trilogy

    For our second edition of TRILOGISTS we figure we might want to discuss an ACTUAL trilogy and we might already have a contender for “Best Trilogy” that we’ve reviewed so far. It’s Valentines time so we’re already in the feeling but this romantic tale has no holiday obligation. The dude doesn’t even have money in the first movie. HE’S A BUM AND SHE’S MADE OF FRENCH PORCELAIN. Richard Linklater’s 1995 romance “Before Sunrise” might be one of the most convincing love stories captured on film and the follow ups of “Sunset” and “Midnight” over the course of 18 years have their own special charms as well but being middle aged is certainly different than f*****g in a park one magical night in Vienna when you were 23. Will George Romero’s Living Dead trilogy get dethroned? Listen and find out as we discuss the ultimate date trilogy (the third one might be rather sobering if you’re early in a relationship but do it anyway, p***y) Subscribe to THE PROJECTORS on YouTube and podcast for a plethora of movie discussions as well as weekly repostings of our very first movie podcast “Documenteers” and much more!

    Delaware at the Movies part 2 - Steven Universe, Goosebumps & More!

    We didn’t want to go quite as long as our opening episode of “Ain’t That America” but we just can’t get enough of Delaware! We gotta get our mouths on some of that SCRAPPLE! For part 2 of our film study of Delaware, we go to the more inland parts of the state, tackle some very low budget fare, encounter an all powerful writer/god  and get a proper introduction to a cartoon cult phenomenon. No state was harder to mine than Delaware and it shows but we also found some surprising quality that we wouldn’t have watched otherwise. Another fun two and a half hours devoted to…DELAWARE! 0:00 - Intro / The Mission 7:58 - Angela’s Delaware Book Report part 2 13:26 - The Dish and the Spoon (2011) 39:10 - Geography of “The Dish & the Spoon” 42:38 - Mayor Cupcake (2011) 1:00:21 - Geography & cuisine of “Mayor Cupcake” 1:05:12 - Goosebumps (2015) 1:24:22 - Geography of “Goosebumps” 1:27:24 - Jason’s Letter (2017) 1:57:31 - Geography of “Jason’s Letter” 2:01:13 - Steven Universe: The Movie (2019) 2:27:41 - Geography of “Steven Universe” 2:30:17 - Outro, Episode previews CREDITS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_Aut1Af7rs - Szabo Music (Delaware’s State Song) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkuYrLEFIfU&list=RDlkuYrLEFIfU&start_radio=1 -  Wastelands 2 - High Pool Prison (scary music) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYALZWFfPO0&list=RDlYALZWFfPO0&start_radio=1 - Outro song by Delaware’s own “The Spinto Band” AIN’T THAT AMERICA THEME QUALIFYING PARAMETERS The movie has to occur within the state at least 60% of the time but preferably more It doesn’t matter if it’s filmed somewhere else, it matters what the story says, the filmmaker’s perceived setting is key While many will be filmed and set in the state, being only filmed in the state does not count if the story doesn’t claim the state It doesn’t matter if the town is fictional within the state, this is actually very common Some states are harder to gather for so parameters may bend here and there Subscribe to THE PROJECTORS on YouTube and podcast for A LOT more movie discussions as well as reposts of our original film podcast “Documenteers” which was all about documentary films.
