Movies After Hours

That right we're already in the first week of Summer. There's no doubt that we could have predicted that our summer 2020 was to be different from any other summer that we could have dreamed it would be. Many things feel uncertain right now, but even in these strange times. We'll have to wave goodbye to exotic trips and weekend getaways—but who said we couldn't that in your own home? Watching summer movies might just be the best way to briefly escape reality and relax (while staying safe at home, to boot!). Our Friends Jesús and Randi Walle join us this week as we break down some of our favorite summer movies that we love to watch or remind us of summer.

Join us in this week's episode, where we sit down with our returning guest and friend Isabella Nguyen (@gd_isabella on Instagram), where we talk all things movie news and sit down to talk about our impressions/ first review of the movie The King of Staten Island. We also take a look back ten years ago and talk about all the movies that came out in June of 2010! You won't believe which movies are already ten years old!

It seems like every successful movie these days seems to get a sequel. It’s hard to capture lightning in a bottle twice, so some sequels lean so heavily on the concept of the first film that it feels lazy, while others reinvent the wheel a little too vigorously, resulting in a sequel that loses its connection to what made the first movie so famous. That’s what makes crafting a sequel so tricky, and only in sporadic cases are sequels better than their predecessors. Yet, some of the greatest films ever made are sequels: Movies like The Dark Knight, The Godfather Part II, Toy Story 3, The Empire Strikes Back and Terminator 2: Judgment Day.

So, join us in this weeks episode where we sit down with our guest Colin Wendt as we discuss, Are sequels ever as good as the original?

Hi, I’m Jordan Nichols, and I love movies. I've been endlessly fascinated by the world of film since I could remember. For me, movies are like breathing. Like you can’t live without breathing, for me, it’s the same. Movies let us escape from real life for a few hours, and sometimes that can be a wonderful distraction from everything that is going on. Even if life is perfectly fine, taking some time out to enjoy something that is entirely unrelated to your own life can help you to relax a little more. I invite you to join me as I explore as we dive into movies that allow us to feel different emotions and experience beautiful storytelling.
