The Millennial Falcon Podcast

Two of your three favorite millennials invite a special guest, Mike Silangil, to talk about the 'Planet of the Apes' franchise while Anya is off for a fun-filled weekend. We do a short review of 'War for the Planet of the Apes,' and do a deep dive into the history of the 'Apes' franchise.

Plus: Willoughby is re-watching '30 Rock,' Mike recommends the Gettysburg-based historical novel 'The Killer Angels,' and HT really likes the 'Wrinkle in Time' trailer as well as the casting of the first female Doctor Who.

HT and Anya are joined by a special guest this week, Philippa, to discuss the import of British media. We talk about our favorite British movies and television shows, why the British Invasion has become such a thing, and how it compares to British media.

Plus: Anya finally saw and loved 'The Beguiled,' HT wrote about her top 10 films of 2017 (so far), and Philippa recommends the book 'SPQR' by Mary Beard about the first 1000 years of the Roman Empire.

In honor of the release of Baby Driver, your three favorite millennials are talking all about Edgar Wright. From Hot Fuzz to Baby Driver we dive into what we love most about his filmmaking. And don't worry, we don't spoil Baby Driver other than the basic premise and style of the film.

Many white, male indie directors are immediately making the jump to helming big franchises — but is it always a good idea? Your three favorite millennials are joined by Friend of the Pod, Mike Silangil, to discuss the firing of Phil Lord and Christopher Miller from the 'Han Solo' prequel and whether that was just a minor instance of a bad investment in this new franchise director pipeline.

Plus: Willoughby recommends the "You Must Remember This" podcast, Anya welcomes "The Oh, Hello Show," Mike raves about "War for the Planet of the Apes," and HT was pleasantly surprised by "It Comes At Night."

"Nevertheless, she persisted." This week we're bringing our millennial monthly movie review to you early as your three favorite millennials review WONDER WOMAN, the new film in the DCEU, directed by Patty Jenkins.

Inspired by the success of "Wonder Woman," your three favorite millennials are here to discuss more wonder women they'd like to see on and behind the camera. This is a really great episode for recommendations of female characters and female directors - and a great conversation on just why we need more stories on screen about women by women.

Your three favorite millennials review 'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2' a disappointing follow-up to the original surprise hit.

Plus: Anya is all for BBC's 'Three Musketeers' series, Willoughby is enjoying 'Logan Noir,' and HT really really likes Carly Rae Jepsen's new summer single, 'Cut to the Feeling.'
