SNOBBIES! Welcome to the new topic of the month, SUMMER CAMP MOVIES! Today we have Caleb’s pick and he swung for the fences. Choosing to decipher “Camp Greenlake,” as a camp, we will be watching Andrew Davis’s, “Holes.” This film is a great nostalgic pick and something that all of us hold close in our hearts. Yelnats!

1 hr 26 min - Some Like it Hot (1959) (I FEEL PRETTY #4)
Ladies and GENTLEMEN who like it hot, we have quite the pick from a disgruntled Snob, Jared. He was NOT happy with the previous picks and even went as far as to say that they made him feel PETTY not PRETTY. But today we have Jared’s pick from 1959 and from director Billy Wilder, “Some Like it Hot.” This film stars Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis and Marilyn Monroe! We have a good time talking about just why this pick is so good and how it makes us feel pretty inside and outside. Join us for the discussion as we delve in!

Here. We. GO!!! Snobbies, we have the third film in the I FEEL PRETTY theme. This pick comes from Eric and from Director Tarsem Singh comes, “The Fall.” This film split the snobs up the middle. Eric enjoyed it, Caleb and Cody liked it sort of, and Jared did not like it. He was feeling petty and wanted better picks for this topic. We REALLY get into it and talk through this EPIC story. The shots in this film are absolutely insane and we hope you ENJOY!

1 hr 17 min - Macbeth (2015) (I FEEL PRETTY #2)
Welcome back Snobbies. Today we have a great little flick for I FEEL PRETTY. Caleb chose a film that he thought looked pretty and created a very beautiful scene to look at. From director Justin Kurzel, “Macbeth.” This film is a tough watch if you have ever tried to watch Shakespeare adaptations before. This one was unique and we talked through how this film made us feel and Jared shares his thoughts on just how much he hates the Shakespearean language. ENJOY!

1 hr 20 min - The Apple (1980) (I FEEL PRETTY #1)
WOWOWOWIIIIIEEEE. This pick from Cody was a bit of a curveball! We begin our next topic of “I FEEL PRETTY” where Cody picked a film from 1980 about the 1990’s. A rock Opera and glamorous take on the future…this film almost left us with nothing to talk about. From director Menahem Golan comes, “The Apple.” Can I talk about the plot in this synopsis? No. Truly I don’t know what to say other than this is a film about two folk signers who are tempted by fame and the evils there within. If you wanna listen to us flounder around and talk about nonsense, ENJOY!
