Narrative Calculus

Well it took a while but here it is lol

It's a bit late, but here it is! Rocky 3!

In the second part of our thanksgiving special, we take a peak at Rocky 2.

In the first part of our Thanksgiving special, we take a look at the movie that started a legacy.

In this episode of Narrative Calculus we take a look at the best movies of all time.

Kirk Cameron's Saving Christmas.

It's rare that we see a movie so brilliant, so genius. In terms of storytelling C.S. Lewis? Outta here! Calvin? Toss your bible down the drain! This is the year of KIRK CAMERON, BUDDY.

The greatest superhero movie of all time has finally entered the halls of our... uh... reviewing room...

Anyway, it's a crime that we haven't gotten around to watching such an amazing classic. Feel free to rage at us in the review section about how long this took to make. Hopefully our review makes up for it. Never before have I seen such depth, such passion in a movie. It's less a movie and more a religious experience. I wake up in the morning sad, but then my day is instantly brightened because I realize that Captain Underpants is a movie I have seen. Feel depressed? Just rewatch Captain Underpants. Feel happy? Still rewatch Captain Underpants! Heck, just watch Captain Underpants anyway.

It's official. Narrative Calculus is OVER. Captain Underpants: The Podcast has been resurrected from its dead remains.

NOTE: Just in case you don't get sarcasm, the above is satirical.

Narrative Calculus makes its first ever book review with The Old Man and The Sea, one of Ernest Hemingway's most celebrated books...

And also one of his most hated. Watch as these two dudes with no background in literary analysis fumble their way around trying to analyze freakin' Ernest Hemingway. What was I thinking?

The Fellowship of the Ring review is up, well, I guess that's it... Just kidding! In this episode of Narrative Calculus, me and Jonathan drop back into Middle-Earth for one final ride. Throughout, we discuss the overall shortcomings and successes of the trilogy. We dive into the basic narrative functions that comprise a story, along with how the movies use said functions. Plot vs character. Theme and structure. All this and more on the icing of the cake on this tetralogy of reviews.

Though P.T. Barnum may be the greatest showman (something i plan to contest in court), this movie about him is most assuredly NOT the greatest show.  It's a total mess, to the point where this movie has the dubious honor of being the first we've ever rated below 5. Why is it such a hot mess? Find out on the next exciting, spine-tingling, have-you-on-the-edge-of-your-seat episode of... A podcast about two dudes reviewing movies

(it's 11pm, im tired. btw what are the odds johnathon is going to text me about this dumb description. any ideas guys? bro, why are you playing tetris? what do you think im blind? just watch the episode. guess what man. I have a very specific set of skills, skills i have acquired by sitting on a chair all day staring at a screen. skills that make me a nightmare to people like you. if you watch the podcast, that'll be the end of it. i wont email you, i wont write irritatingly bad descriptions. but if you dont, i wil you know what im going to sleep)
