As we wrap up August, we have another back-to-school themed episode. This week, we focus on the angsty years of being a teenager. We also discuss the biggest news to break in quite some time: Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are engaged! How much of the wedding will we end up seeing? Will they buy a property in Cleveland? Only time will tell. Ailish was finally able to watch Terrifier 2 and we both hope we can see the third installment before we take a trip to Universal later in the fall. Hannah also watched The Audition and Eraserhead which are two more films checked off her horror list.

To begin the Teen Angst theme, we start with the boys. Varsity Blues is a movie that’s huge in pop culture, but neither of us had seen. We couldn’t help but remember Scandoval and how Tom referred to the whipped cream bikini scene when talking about his affair with Rachel/Raquel. Now that we’ve seen this, we think about him referencing this movie a lot differently… Donnie Darko is one we’d both seen before, but it had been a few years. It’s filled with all-star actors and Jake Gyllenhaal gives an absolutely unreal performance at such a young age. We both agree that the more we watch this one, the more we’ll come to understand it. Moving on to the girls, we have Thirteen. Hannah had watched this when she was a teen, but this was Ailish’s first time watching. It’s safe to say that this one hits a lot differently when you’re watching it as an adult! Is it wrong to say we miss this version of Nikki Reed? Lastly, we have Girl, Interrupted. Another fantastic performance from Angelina Jolie, and the other girls do a great job of depicting mental illness in the 60s. No, Winona Ryder isn’t bad in this film, but both of us were on the fence with her in this role in general.

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, we have another Back to School theme. This time, we’re focusing on some classic books we read in middle school! Ailish didn’t get a chance to watch any extra movies this week, but Hannah was able to watch three that were all set in the 80s. We also discussed the newly released trailer/teaser for the highly-anticipated, Marty Supreme, and give our guesses on its likelihood of playing at an upcoming film festival.

We started our discussion on books we read in middle school that were made into movies with Because of Winn Dixie. While we agreed this is a cute movie and book, we felt this one was a little young feeling compared to the others. This was the start of a great run by AnnaSophia Robb though! After watching Tuck Everlasting through adult eyes, we were blown away almost as much as we were the first time we read the book. This movie definitely still hits hard and stays with you. Yes, there’s a little controversy with the age of Winnie, but we feel the changes the movie made from the book are positive ones. Speaking of controversy, we come to Holes. Shia LaBeouf may be a controversial figure now, but there’s not denying how phenomenal he was here. There are so many complex themes being explored here and it’s honestly hard to find something wrong with this film. To round things out, we have Bridge to Terabithia. Obviously, we cried. It’s hard to believe we were barely in double digits reading this book, and the multiple facets of our pre-teen characters opened our eyes to so much.

Two Girl Cinema Club sits down for a longer episode this week and we have a lot to get through before school starts again! Ailish was able to see Together and Hannah watched The Assessment, so we gave full reviews on those two movies to start things off. We also went to see Weapons which was way more controversial than we expected. If you saw the film, let us know your thoughts! To wrap up our weekend of movies, we hit up the drive-in and watched Freakier Friday for ultimate nostalgia. 

Since Freakier Friday was released this past weekend, we figured it was a great time to revisit the original to fit our “Back To School” theme. Freaky Friday still holds up after all these years, and we were blown away by the cast chemistry, timeless jokes, and Jamie Lee Curtis’ knockout performance. We also agreed that The Princess Diaries and Aquamarine held up now that we’re watching them with adult eyes, but we felt The Lizzie McGuire movie left us a little disappointed.

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, we focus on films telling stories from a Black perspective with predominantly Black casts. This is another theme that we plan on revisiting in a later episode in the hopes some others come available on our streaming services! In watching these films, we were also struck by how important and impactful representation in the industry is, and feel even more excited for the work that Ryan Coogler is doing on the heels of Sinners. Unfortunately, some of these movies didn’t fully land for us even though the concept was there. The Deliverance went viral on TikTok for Glenn Close’s role in the movie, but that wasn’t necessarily positive press for this Netflix production. Staying with the horror genre, we also watched Us. Hannah had seen this many times, but it was the first time Ailish had watched. This concept gives you a lot to think about, and we both think this is a win for Jordan Peele. Beasts of the Southern Wild left us a bit divided. While we both thought Quvenzhané Wallis was unbelievable and the visuals were striking, we wondered what the reception of this movie would be today. Lastly, we watched Sam Levinson’s, Malcom & Marie. Overall, this one felt like the same scene over and over, even though the acting and composition of the filming was visually appealing.

Since Ailish was on vacation last week, she didn’t get to watch other movies, but luckily, Hannah did! She went to see Together and it wasn’t exactly what she expected based on previews. Ailish hopes to see this as well, so we’ll talk more about this on a future episode. She also watched Terrifier 2 and talked about some previews she saw when seeing Together.

For this week’s episode of Two Girl Cinema Club, we share our top 5 movies we’ve watched so far this year. Some of the movies are new releases, but some are older films we revisited. There are also so many movies that are coming out later this year that we’re really excited about, so we talk about those as well. Since we’re horror fans, we have some movies releasing soon that we’re making plans to go to the theatre for and we hope to head to the drive-in to see Freakier Friday! What are some of your favorite movies of the year and which ones are you the most looking forward to?

Two Girl Cinema Club went to see Eddington opening weekend and we have a lot of thoughts! If you’ve seen the movie, you can probably relate to us in that it took us some time to completely process everything in the film and how we felt about everything. If you watched Eddington, be sure to let us know what you thought! Hannah also watched Manchester by the Sea, Opus, and Dunkrik, and Ailish started Season 4 of The Bear.

With Eddington getting released, we felt it was the perfect time to explore some other pandemic-style films. Train to Busan was one we had both heard good things about, but neither of us had seen. The fact that the majority of the film is confined to train cars made this one different from other movies of the same genre, and we noted that the infection to zombie transition time is quite fast, unless you’re a character at a pivotal part of the plot. Cargo was one that we hadn’t heard much about and it was a Netflix film. It had some interesting plot points that could have been explored more (indigenous Australian culture) and some that could’ve been toned down (doomsday prepper, Vic), but we did feel invested in our main characters. Eli Roth’s Cabin Fever was a movie Hannah had seen, but Ailish had not. This movie is more campy and fun, but it does have some serious moments throughout which kind of made the point of the movie confusing. This is one that doesn’t hold us quite like the others even though the way the infection is spread did seem realistic.

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club we watched some epic films about war. We started the episode by giving our honest opinions on Justin Bieber’s new album, SWAG. So…does that mean everything he’s been up to recently has been a well-thought plan? He did tell us he’s standing on business and it seems he meant it. The Emmy nominations were also announced and there were some big wins (Apple), surprising snubs (Handmaid’s Tale & Only Murderers), and a sore loser (Anna Camp). Ailish was able to watch Revenge, so we were able to have a full conversation about the movie as a whole, and Hannah watched Spree and Killer Klowns from Outer Space for Summerween.

Black Hawk Down is a hugely popular movie that Hannah had seen, but Ailish had not. This one is definitely a heavy watch and we both felt like we were boots on the ground because of how realistic it felt. 1917 and All Quiet on the Western Front were great movies to watch as a pair because they focus on different sides of the same war. Both of these are considered anti-war films and focus on WWI. While All Quiet garnered some criticism because it wasn’t 100% true the book, we found it to be highly impactful and we’re on the waitlist for the audiobook.

This week, Two Girl Cinema Club focuses on animated films, but before we dig into that, we talk about a variety of other movies we caught up with. Ailish was finally able to watch the Black Phone ahead of the sequel coming this fall, and The Woman in the Yard which didn’t land for Blum House. Hannah watched The Shark Whisperer and Flow, and listened to The Dirt after we watched the movie a few weeks ago. Speaking of Pam Anderson, we also discussed The Last Showgirl and what Oscar nominations mean, and the upcoming epic, The Odyssey. 

Our theme this week was Oscar-Nominated Animated Films and we started with The Wild Robot. Since Hannah watched Flow, it was interesting to compare the movie that won the Oscar vs this one. Out of all the movies this week, we didn’t gel with The Mitchell’s vs The Machines. There were definitely some funny moments, but overall, we felt this one didn’t give kids enough credit, especially when you compare it to the other nominated films. Pinocchio surprised us the most. This was another unbelievable stop-motion film and we were completely in awe of how it was executed. Last on the list was I Lost My Body. While this one was animated, it wasn’t geared toward children, and it explored some heavy themes.

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club it’s part 2 of Wes Anderson movies. Before we dig into the films, Ailish teases 28 Years Later, Hannah recaps the latest news from The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, and we both discuss the insane documentary, Abducted in Plain Sight. Should we do a documentary week and if so, what are some of your favorites that we should check out?

Getting into Wes Anderson, we watched some of his unexpected films this week starting with the Isle of Dogs. The stop motion animation was just amazing here and we both liked this movie a lot more than we thought we would. Even though it was animation and not live action, it still really felt like we were in Wes Anderson’s world. We also watched his collection of short films inspired by the works of Roald Dahl: The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar, The Swan, The Rat Catcher, and Poison. These were lesser-known to us, and we felt Anderson really maintained the integrity of Dahl’s writing. As a bonus, Hannah also watched The Fantastic Mr. Fox!

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club we dive into some Wes Anderson films. Before we get to that, we discuss the breaking news of Anna Wintor stepping down as the head of Vogue and Brooke Schofield getting engaged. Hannah also watched The Iron Claw and Ailish finished the final season of You. 

In honor of the Phoenician Scheme, we watched some Wes Anderson films we haven’t seen. In a previous episode, we’ll admit that we were a little skeptical of the Wes obsession, but after watching these movies, we ate our words. We started with Rushmore which was one of his first films. This one had a different vibe from some of his later works, but we liked the fantastical elements of this one. Surprisingly enough, neither of us had seen The Royal Tenenbaums before even though this is probably one of Anderson’s most famous works. Gene Hackman really stands out here and we can’t help but get a little emotional knowing what’s happened in the last few months. Life Aquatic and The Darjeeling Limited rounded out the movies we’re exploring this week. While we felt the former was a little slow, we loved the visuals in both of these and they really helped pull the whole inside the films together.
