Welcome back to THE DISCOURSE, a podcast about film, entertainment & culture.

In this episode, Carl and Tony tackle a piece reappreciating The Phantom Menace and wonder about tackling less beloved films with distance and how they might be reexamined.

Plus! With teenagers no longer having seen The Matrix or even The Dark Knight, they discuss how films age and how the perception of them as iconic or memorable does.

And finally, a couple of weeks late, but they look at 2024's Oscars, decide whether the awards given were fair, and consider highlights from the ceremony.
