  • "Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour," "The Mission," "The Burial"

    It's Taylor Swift Day, but hey, isn't every day? We do a deep dive on "Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour," really from every angle we can. It's quite a movie! Then we discuss two, uh, smaller movies: The fascinating documentary "The Mission" and the Amazon Prime Jamie Foxx-Tommy Lee Jones-starrer "The Burial."

    But it's mostly Taylor Swift, we'll admit.

  • "The Exorcist: Believer," "The Royal Hotel," "Fair Play"

    It's basically Taylor Swift Eve on the podcast, and in the movie world, but we've got three new movies to discuss. First, it's David Gordon Green's NEXT horror direct sequel, "The Exorcist: Believer." Then it's Kitty Green's "The Assistant" followup, "The Royal Hotel." And then we've got the "erotic thriller" from Netflix, "Fair Play." None of these movies have Taylor Swift in them. Yet.

  • "Dumb Money," "The Creator," The Wes Anderson Netflix Roald Dahl Shorts

    We're a day late on this episode, but it's well worth: Lots of fun movies to dig into. First, it's the star-studded "financial" comedy "Dumb Money." Then it's Gareth Edwards' sci fi actioner "The Creator."

    But the real treat? Wes Anderson's Roald Dahl shorts, which are hidden on Netflix but which you should absolutely go watch right now. We have a blast talking about them.

  • "Stop Making Sense," "Expend4bles," "Team America: World Police"

    We have never talked about "Stop Making Sense" on this podcast, which happens to be one of the favorite movies of all time for both of our hosts. So we go deep on that, with the new re-release, which you must see.

    We then do something entirely different by discussing "Expend4bles," which is just a hilarious title. Speaking of hilarious (and offensive, like "Expend4bles") we reboot the Trey Parker puppet terrorism comedy "Team America: World Police."

  • "A Haunting in Venice," "El Conde," "Cassandro"

    Grierson is back from the Toronto Film Festival, and we briefly talk about this time there. But not for too long, because we have movies to discuss. It's Kenneth Branagh's third Agatha Christie movie, "A Haunting in Venice." Also, Pablo Larrain's Netflix venture "El Conde" and the Gael Garcia Bernal wrestling picture "Cassandro."

  • "The Equalizer 3," "Sherlock Jr." "American Movie"

    This is our last show for two weeks, because Grierson is about to go to Toronto. So we have a lot of fun. Our one new movie is the end of the Denzel Washington action trilogy "The Equalizer 3." Then we go big with our Reboots, with the Buster Keaton classic "Sherlock Jr." and the Chris Smith cult documentary "American Movie."

  • 2023 Fall Film Festival Preview, "Dr. Strangelove Or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb"

    There aren't any REAL movies out this week, but there are a ton of film festivals coming, so this week, we're each giving our five movies we're most looking forward to the rest of the year. Lots of stuff to look forward to. Then we do another Kubrick reboot, which is always fun: The classic "Dr. Strangelove Or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb."

  • "Blue Beetle," "Strays," "Sunshine"

    We start off our show with a Wilco-Son Volt conversation, because that's what we do here. Then we dig into the sorta-orphaned DC movie "Blue Beetle," then the dirty-dog comedy "Strays."

    In our reboot, we look at the recently quite relevant 2007 Danny Boyle sci-fi film "Sunshine."
