Join us as we see where we fit in on the scale between Grown Ups and Jeanne Dielman, accidentally diss a bunch of people as being part of a hive mind, and stumble onto moments of self-awareness and discovery.
We may love cinema, but some movies are just pure torture. In this episode, we will reveal our picks for the worst movie ever made, dive into what makes us hate (or dislike) films in general, and, as a provocative bonus, reveal which critically acclaimed darlings we have rated 1/10.
Can returning champion [NAME REDACTED] hold onto their title against new and old foes? Tune in to the 2nd edition of Talking Images' Big Quiz Show to see which of the hosts actually know what they're talking about.

Clint Eastwood's westerns are iconic! His more "contemporary" westerns ... less so.
In this episode, we discuss each of the 7 times Eastwood directed and starred in Western masterpieces like Unforgiven and odd quasi-western misfires like Bronco Billy.
Can we find anything connecting them? Is there a line running from High Plains Drifter to Cry Macho? Oh, and how many of his characters were ghosts? Listen in and find out.

Pssst ... Space Cowboys is not discussed in this episode, but we might get to it in the future. Want to here us talk about Eastwood some more? Let us know on ICMForum.com.
We did it! We have recorded 100 episodes (+ a pilot) of our extremely niche film podcast, and it seems some people care!
Join us as we walk down memory lane, reveal our most cringe-worthy, as well as proudest moments, and share our so-far hidden stats of the most listened-to episodes.
We'll also reveal our unpopular film opinions, which just might become future episodes.
What's wrong with Tom? How can we break through to him? Join our intervention/hateful interrogation of why he has no interest in watching more documentaries.
Do people still read, or should all communication about film now be in the form of memes?
In this episode, we reveal what film magazines we still read (for some, it is zero), why we review films ourselves (are we just screaming into the void?!), and discuss whether Letterboxd could be throwing reviews a lifeline (though the joke reviews always seem to win out).
We'll also explore what we actually want from film reviews, decry spoilers, shake our heads at heavy plot descriptions and try to give tips to writing reviews in today's TL:DR generation.
The death threats are flying in this episode as Lauren comes face to face with a loud and proud strategic voter.
Join us as we discuss whether strategic voting has its place in pushing up under-watched gems, changing narratives, or solidifying the canon—or if those who do it are just dirty, rotten liars and cheats.
We will also finally open up about the controversial Sight & Sound results of 2022 and whether or not we think the results were genuine.
Eric Rohmer was in his 70s when he delivered his final official cycle, Tales of Four Seasons. How do these 4 films stack up against his legendary Moral Tales or Comedies and Proverbs cycles? How do they capture the seasons, let alone youth? Was he still on point?
Join us as we talk through A Tale of Springtime (1990), A Winter's Tale (1992), A Tale of Summer (1996), and An Autumn Tale (1998) in chronological order, and break down their themes, how they fit together, and how they make us feel.

What makes a list exciting or worth working on? In this episode, Sol takes the host's chair as we dive into exactly what types of film lists we enjoy working on, what makes them great, and, to throw in some negativity, what lists we wouldn't touch with a barge pole.
