Episode 89 - BlackKklansman & Sorry to Bother You

Happy Midterms Eve 2018!!!

Mitch invites Justin Viera onto the filmcast to discuss two very political films: Spike Lee's BlackKklansman (11:30) and Boots Riley's Sorry to Bother You (53:00).

What are these films are about? What did they do right? What did they do wrong? How much power does cinema have in our culture? How much power do we have to make things less shitty for other people?

It's a doozy of a discussion on film, politics, and voting before they recommend some movies and tv to watch (1:53:50).

Episode 88 - Halloween (2018)

Mitch welcomes guests Mike McGettigan and Andy Reid (Fumblin' Around podcast) of the Planet Ant Theatre and Planet Ant Podcasts fame. They discuss Halloween (2018), the 40-year-old sequel/soft-reboot of Halloween (1978), that completely erases every sequel, reboot, and offshoot that came before it.

There's no news to discuss this episode, for Mitch, Mike, and Andy are very eager to skeez.

Episode 87 - First Man & A Star is Born

Collin and Mitch get together sans Kale to talk movies. Obviously, the Academy listened to us, because the "Achievement in Popular Film" category is no more! Space Jam 2? Who cares? James Gunn to Suicide Squad 2? Yay?

Hot off Whiplash and La La Land, Damien Chazelle and Ryan Gosling tackle the next story that demands Chazelle's brilliance: First Man, the Neil Armstrong biopic. (17:50)

Collin and Mitch then go gaga over A Star is Born. Bradley Cooper's directorial and Lady Gaga's feature film acting debuts. (43:00)

Then we recommend some stuff. (1:11:00)

All before diving into Mission: Impossible - Fallout (34:15) and Crazy Rich Asians (53:10).
