Get Your Film Fix

A couple weeks late to the celestial party that is James Gray's Ad Astra, but we've reviewed it and we've got some diverging takes!  We move on to two compelling emails from listeners, and finally, Chapin shares an existential crisis with the boys over Hustlers.

We Three Kings be stealing the gold this week as we jump back to the best year in cinema again to revisit David O. Russell's action-packed and highly lauded film.  Then, we revisit our most anticipated films for the rest of 2019 in our Top 5.

We'd love to hear from you!  Email us at [email protected]

It's 1999 again, possibly the best year ever for cinema, and we're examining that year's second-highest grossing film, M. Night Shyamalan's The Sixth Sense.  After a detailed deconstruction of the movie, apropos of Shyamalan, we discuss the power of twist endings and finally, a War Horse showdown...or do we agree?

We got a very thoughtful email from a listener this week and had to record a follow up to our podcast on Tarantino's latest.  We get in to some of the controversy surrounding the film and QT in general.  Enjoy!

Let us answer one of your questions: [email protected] 

It's the summer of '69 and things are heating up!  We FINALLY got to see one of our favorite directors (Quentin Tarantino) and favorite stars (Leonardo DiCaprio) team up again in our most anticipated film of 2019.  And...surprise...we don't all agree!  

Top 5 this week is our definitive list of Leo's top performances.

This is one of our better podcasts in a while.  Enjoy!  And let us know what you think!

We answer a fan email about "The Matrix" podcast.  Check it out!

It's just Lee and Chapin on today's pod, as we dig deep on Ari Aster's Midsommar and it's genre-bending tactics.  There's no Top 5 this week, so let us know your thoughts at [email protected]. 

Beatlesmania hits the Get Your Film Fix podcast this week with Danny Boyle's Yesterday.  After Chapin makes a surprising confession, we wrap the pod up with our Top Five songs sung in movies. 

Welcome to the real world!  We're unplugging (or plugging in?) and going back to 1999 (again) to analyze arguably the most influential movie of that year, The Matrix!  We dive into our philosophical understanding of the Wachowskis' future.  Later, we dive into the influences on The Matrix and how it has left it's mark on cinema as we know it.  And finally, we wrap it all up with our Top 5 slow motion scenes. 

This week we review Olivia Wilde's directorial debut film Booksmart, starring Kaitlyn Dever and Beanie Feldstein!  Then we wrap it all up with our Top 5 Female Friendships.
