The Doofcast

This week, Matt and Scott begin their new Deconstructing Directors series and take a look at Gore Verbinski's first film: 1997's Mousehunt. They chat about Verbinski's tendency to go big, the warm center of the film, and how it's the best of the "animal outsmart stupid humans" genre 

Then we announce the results of last week's Doof Cannon vote for The Hunt and Scott makes some picks for this week's 2021 Academy Awards.
