We’re about to break the first rule of Fight Club.

In this episode, we dive headfirst into David Fincher’s dark, stylish, and endlessly debated 1999 film based on Chuck Palahniuk’s debut novel. We talk about the brilliance of the voiceover, one of the greatest character intros of all time, and how Brad Pitt and Edward Norton pulled off one of cinema’s wildest twists.

But beyond the punches and soap-making, we ask the deeper questions: Is Fight Club to blame for toxic masculinity? Or is it a razor-sharp satire that’s been misunderstood for over two decades?

In this episode of Meaning Of The Movie, we dive into one of the most debated films of the last decade — The Last Jedi. It divided the Star Wars fanbase... and it divides us too.

In this episode of Meaning of the Movie, Rob Stennett and Andrew Harmon dig into Sinners, this spring’s breakout film that blends Southern grit, gospel, and gore. We talk about what makes the characters so compelling, why the setting feels lived-in, and how the movie uses vampires not just for scares—but to explore sin, judgment, and redemption.

We also get into why “survive the night” movies are so satisfying, how Sinners fits (and breaks) vampire movie tropes, and the magic of a great actor/director combo. It’s a wild ride of blood, blues, and big questions—and we’re here for all of it.

In this episode, we delve into the Season 2 finale of Severance, "Cold Harbor." Did we finally get the answers we were seeking?

In this episode, we’re diving into Severance Season 2, Episode 9, "The After Hours." As the season races toward its conclusion, we unpack our reactions, debate our favorite scenes, break down our favorite storylines, and ask the big question—was this a bounce-back episode? 

Harmony gets a standalone episode, and we’re not sure it works. In fact, we think Sweet Virtol has some serious problems that are worth unpacking. Does this detour add depth to the story, or does it stall the momentum? We break down the episode's themes, execution, and what it means for the series as a whole.

Join us as we debate: Is this the weakest episode of Severance so far? Let’s talk about it.

In this episode of Attila, we dive into Chikhai Bardo and ask the big question—could this be the greatest episode of Severance? We break down what makes this episode so different, from its haunting revelations to the emotional depth of Mark and Gemma’s backstory. As the lines between past and present, love and loss blur, we explore how this chapter reshapes everything we thought we knew. Let’s get into it.

"In this episode of Attila, we break down the romantic entanglements of Irv, Helly, Mark, and Dylan. From Irv and Burt’s tender connection to Helly’s struggle for autonomy, Mark’s lingering grief, and Dylan’s surprising moment of intimacy, we explore how love manifests in the fractured world of Lumon. What do these relationships reveal about identity, choice, and resistance? Let’s dive in."

Episode 5: Severance – Trojan Horse

In this episode of The Meaning of the Movie, we break down Severance Episode 5, Trojan Horse. We explore the complicated love triangle between Mark, Helly, and a certain someone from the outside world, as well as Irving’s fate and what his interaction with Burt might mean. We also analyze Milchick’s unexpected performance review—what does it reveal about the culture at Lumon? And of course, we can’t ignore the paper clips. Finally, we discuss the thrill (and potential pitfalls) of diving too deep into the show’s many mysteries.

In this episode of "The Meaning of the Movie," we delve into the intricacies of television storytelling as we continue to cover SEVERANCE.
