Brent and Adam welcome back Brian Menard to talk Finchers acclaimed 2010 hit ‘The Social Network’! The three get into the prescient and timely nature of the story of Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg, the clever and smart script by Aaron Sorkin, and a few tangents about middle school clothing, transformative musical experiences and social networks in general!

Adam and Brent are joined by Amy Kidwell-Carroll (who also happens to be Brent’s wife) to talk Christopher Nolan’s 2010 ‘Inception’! They talk the metaphors about film-making at the heart of the movie, Tom Hardy and Leo DiCaprio, Inception’s role as the peak (and possible high-point) of Nolan’s career, and a few classic ‘Hot Takes’! There are plenty of weird tangents and digressions to be had (we finally start talking Inception roughly 40 minutes in) but it’s a fun, wine-fueled extravaganza, so enjoy!

Adam and Brent are talking Fincher’s 2008 romantic epic ‘Benjamin Button’ with returning guest Sean Menard! They get into the theme of mortality of the movie, as well as the execution of the epic and ambitious script. They also get into (yet again) Brad Pitt’s accent work, the CGI work that made this movie possible, and inherently manipulative nature of the story at hand. It’s another fun episode, diving into an outlier of Fincher’s filmography, and a fun one to break into with our guest.
