Are we in control of our own free will or are we just along for the ride? This is a core question of the cyberpunk genre that is defined by movies like RoboCop. Don't judge this movie by its cover, RoboCop might present like another dumb action flick but there is a lot to unpack in this Paul Verhoeven masterpiece.

Does The Menu and Triangle of Sadness, two "eat the rich" movies that came out last year, stand out in the long history of eat-the-rich movies? With other recent movies like Parasite and Knives Out or older movies like Society it seems debatable. Which is why we have Midnight Local.

When you spend all day in a studio shooting a YouTube series about drinking, things can run off the rails in a hurry, and carefully managing that chaos is vital if you’re going to make a show like How to Drink, and that’s what Greg & Meredith have done for years. Here at Midnight Local we give into that chaos and let the rails be damned. These are the conversations that make you pause the movie because it just can't wait. Things like how the Hays Code destroyed cinema from 1934 - 1968, why David Lindelof should never be able to hold a pen again, and the fact that Joss Whedon doesn't live up to the morality of his own characters and also has tiny teeth. Midnight Local is a place to get weird about movies and shows and the rest and go beyond the who, what and where.
