Reel Obsessed

What better to follow an episode on Tiger King than one on Alan Yang's new Netflix film Tigertail? Jon, Jess, and Beau talk about that new release and hash out which movie based on a true story is better, Quiz Show or Temple Grandin.

Jon, Jess, and Beau take the deep dive into the phenomenon of Tiger King before settling the latest BeauChamps battle pitting Adaptation against Inside Llewyn Davis. Plus, there's a bonus mini-review of Never Rarely Sometimes Always.

With lockdown keeping us inside, we cover a ton of movies with in-depth discussions of a quartet you'll probably never see again:

Some Like It Hot

Tootsie

Children of Men

The Iron Giant

With the gang on quarantine, our Yay and Nays reach far and wide before we shift our focus to the zombie thriller Train to Busan. The bulk of our episode, though, is focused on the man the myth, the legend Jimmy Stewart and his performances in Rear Window and The Philadelphia Story

Reel Obsessed is back in action and this episode we discuss the new-to-streaming The Hunt and soon-to-be-streaming The Way Back. However, with everyone home, we will be focusing more on BeauChamps. This episode we declare the first-round winner in the battle between 12 Angry Men and The Edge of Seventeen and pick films for a Jimmy Stewart showdown.

Jon returns and he brought some contentious opinions with him, like whether or not Jessica should quit watching movies before they are over. While we start with some disagreement, we all have generally positive things to say about our two new films, Onward and The Invisible Man, but the gloves are off for the first round of a new segment where Jon and Jess try to appeal to Beau's taste in movies.

While Jon's away, Beau and Jess switch over to the TV realm to talk about the new Amazon series Hunters and the controversy surrounding this story of a ragtag team hunting down Nazis in the 1970s.

While we were all in agreement about Bad Boys for Life, the gang is seriously divided on The Lodge and whether or not it is even a horror film. Plus, we debut a new segment on our highs and lows of the week, Yay or Nay.

After Jon gets all his Parasite Oscar excitement out of his system and Jess takes a deep dive into the economic situation in South Korea, we go British with a look at Guy Ritchie's new film The Gentlemen and an old British classic, Kind Hearts and Coronets.

With our top ten films behind us, we move on and discuss which movies we think are Overrated or Appreciated. Then we hit on some of our favorite movie moments of the year that didn't quite make our top ten. And, much to Beau's chagrin, we talk Oscars.
