We just got married! So while we recover, and in lieu of a normal episode this week, we decided to release one of our recent bonus Patron episodes into the main feed.  If you enjoyed this content consider checking out our Patreon and subscribing for $5 a month where you'll get access to all of our past and future bonus episodes!

Midsommar [PATRON BONUS EPISODE]

On _This Film is Lit_ we finally settle the score on one simple question… Is the book really better than the movie? Bryan has a film degree. He watches the movie but doesn't read the book. Katie has two English degrees, so she does things the right way and reads the book before we watch the movie.   Prepare to be wowed by our expertise and charm as we dissect all of your favorite film adaptations and decide whether the silver-screen or the written word did it better. Turn it up, settle in, and get ready for spoilers because This Film is Lit.

Prequel to Nimona - Do more Steves mean a better movie?

A man tells his stories so many times that he becomes the stories. They live on after him, and in that way he becomes immortal. It's Big Fish, and This Film is Lit.
