- Ep. 31 - Jingle All The Way (1996) & Jingle All The Way 2 (2014)
This week we get into the holiday spirit with Jingle All The Way (1996) and Jingle All The Way 2 (2014) and discuss strong anti-capitalist messages, fictional characters as stand-ins for tangible relationships, conservatives vilifying poverty, and the problematic antics of Lawrence the Cable Man.

This week we search for treasure with Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) & Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008) and discuss glossing over sexual abuse, the destruction of indigenous cultures in the name of white male glory, fatal consequences of capitalism, and a very phallic use of snakes.

This week we get creepy and kooky with The Addams Family (1991) and its animated reimagining (2019) and discuss societal fear of individuality, genuine familial love, the dangers of familiarizing children with problematic people, and how we are slowly becoming an Anjelica Huston appreciation podcast. (Note: technical difficulties led to us needing to use the lower-quality audio file from Skype from 35:51 to 39:21.)

This week we summon up The Craft (1996) and its new sequel The Craft: Legacy (2020) to discuss demonizing female empowerment, the patriarchy personified, bisexual erasure, and what it would have been like to visit Fairuza Balk’s occult shop in the ‘90s.

This week we look at the original 1990 version and brand new 2020 version of The Witches to examine the anti-Semitic history of witches, the stale comedy of fat jokes, unearned emotional payoffs, and how Roald Dahl was a terrible horrible awful person.

It's our one year podcast anniversary (and Eric's birthday)! We celebrated by watching both versions of Frankenweenie (1984 and 2012) and discussed the paranoia of white suburbanites, adults not believing children, depicting people of color as villains, and Tim Burton being a goth boomer.

This week we visit provincial France to look at Beauty and the Beast (1991) and its live-action remake (2017) and explore different performances of toxic masculinity, reinforcing gender binaries via anthropomorphic household objects, condescending representations of queerness, and Disney's extremely low bar for feminism.
