Popcorn Theology

With the launch of Disney+, we decided that our Patreon supporters should get to choose ONE flick from the new service and force us to talk about it.. and they chose Atlantis: The Lost Empire! The movie actually provides us quite a bit to talk about - made family, unequal yoke to the world, why its a bad idea to get an 'ought' from an 'is' (I promise, that'll make some sense!), and more! Enjoy! If you like what you are hearing and want to help support our show, consider pledging to support us over on Patreon!

David and James stand ominously and stare in through the window of the horror genre at a defining movie that set the course for the slasher genre. They take a stab at understanding our film fascination with fear, and this particular slice of cinematic history in terms of what is says about morality and the "final girl" trope. Join them as they unmask Halloween and examine the film's ambiguities and seeming contradictions, thanks to our Patreon supporters and their pick for our podcast this month! As referenced in the episode, here's James' legacy article from Cinemagogue on the holy, hellish, hodgepodge history of Halloween!

Join our hosts, Seattle and Martinsburg, as they take a shambling look at the second shot of Zombieland. From the genre in general to the themes of this film - rules, pacifism and a healthy dose of political incorrectness - we see if this comedy has any brain matter in its cinematic cranium.

Does this latest interstellar film about a lonely man's space odyssey have the gravity of its cinematic forebears?

David and James launch into conversation about our protagonist's physical and emotional vacuum, the sins of the father, and the story's revelation that is open to different interpretation and is certain to fuel conversation.

Go for a ride with David and James as they see how Taxi Driver fares after forty years. What drives Travis Bickle, and does the narrative steer into dangerous territory? Considering this (and The King of Comedy, another De Niro film) are noted influences on the controversial Joker film, it seemed wise to review this historic film in light of imminent debate.
