On this week's episode, Farzain Rahman ('23) and Erin Chun ('23) give us their hot takes on The Super Mario Bros. Movie and Air, including: the origin story of a mustachioed plumber with daddy issues, the sexual politics of Bowser, the girlbossification of Princess Peach, the genre of White Men Talking in Rooms, and what it means to root for a shoe. Are video game adaptations and stories about product marketing the future of movies? Plus, they discuss yet another rebranding of HBO Max and unpack the looming Hollywood writers strike.
