Accounting for Taste

This week we cheated and picked a movie that none of us had seen. We all agreed we wanted to watch the Lighthouse, and decided to bend the rules a wee bit.

Was the Lighthouse as good as we had hoped it would be? Turns out, not so much. 

*Disclaimer: Kyle's microphone was acting up on him for this recording, so he sounds a little off from normal. I cleaned it up as much as I could, and it doesn't sound bad, just slightly distorted.

Todd loved John Wick so much, that Jeff choose Chapter two for the guys to watch this week. 

Join us as we discuss this Keanu Reeves action epic second chapter of John Wick's trail of vengeance. 

HOW DO YOU LIKE DEM APPLES?!

We talk about Good Will Hunting this week, which Kyle choose for us to watch! Todd, somehow, hadn't seen it before, so we made him sit down for a couple of hours and get enlightened. Listen in to hear how much he loved it.

This week the guys discuss Todd's pick, the little heard of (for good reason?) The Spanish Prisoner. Listen in to find out what the guys think about this film-noire inspired thriller. The Spanish Prisoner is directed and written by David Mamet, and stars Steve Martin, Campbell Scott and Rebecca Pidgeon. 

This week, a sleepy and groggy Jeff picked the pilot episode of the West Wing to gush over. Are Todd and Kyle as big of a fan of Aaron Sorkin's political drama? 

Kyle was up this week to pick what the guys watched. He picked the superb action flick John Wick. This was Todd's first time watching it. Tune in to find out what he thought of this stuntman's wet dream of a movie. 

On this week, we have what is already being dubbed a Todd Classic after he picks another one of his favorites, Synecdoche, New York. This one was a little on the divisive side of the spectrum, tune in to see what Kyle and Jeff thought about this art house classic. 

This week Jeff picked Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood for the guys to react to. QT is Jeff's favorite director of all time, so we'll see if Todd and Kyle think as highly of this film as he does.

This week Kyle picked the 1999 cult horror comedy film Idle Hands for the guys to watch and react to! Come see if the movie holds up. Is it still funny? Is it cringy? Is it scary? Come find out!

On this week's episode of our digital "book club" Todd has chosen David Lynch's classic film Mulholland Dr. Will Jeff and Kyle hold this film in as high esteem as Todd does? Or will they rip it to shreds? Tune in to find out.

As with every episode of According to Taste, the guys will be talking in depth about whatever the subject matter is, so there will be spoilers.
