Next up in our "New Year, New You" series is the amazing Terry Gilliam classic, Brazil!  As much as Eric and I love Terry Gilliam, this was actually a first-time viewing of Brazil for both of us.  We initially picked Brazil because of the plot point of of the Tuttle/Buttle mistaken identity as the connection for "new you."  But we had no idea just how perfectly this movie was going to work for the New Year, New You theme (while the mistaken identity plot point is what set everything in motion, it's a relatively minor aspect of the film)!!  So, join The Gargyle and The Chimerican as we go into a fairly deep dive with our analysis of Brazil!!

As each year rolls around, most people take stock of their lives over the last year  - evaluating changes that have occurred and making plans on how to improve in the upcoming year.  And on The Gargyle Podcast, that means discussing movies in which the main character goes through some...transformations.  So, kicking off our series of "New Year, New You" movies, Eric and I are discussing the Netflix original movie, Cam - the story of a cam girl who loses herself (or, does she find herself??) when her account is taken over by a doppelganger!

I'm a bit late in getting this posted, but here is The Gargyle Podcast's New Year episode!!  Naturally, Eric and I kick off 2019 by talking about 2018.  We had an amazing year of cinematic experiences (film fests, meeting new people, watching amazing movies...new and old), so in our year end review episode, Eric and I talk about some of our favorite films that we saw last year (not necessarily movies that came out in 2018), some of our top words of 2018, and our cinematic goals for 2019.  As awesome as 2018 was (in terms of movies...there was plenty of other crap that totally sucked about 2018), here's to an even better year in 2019!

 It's been a few months since the last Harry Potter episode, but Adam and I are back at it with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1!  In tonight's episode, we discuss how tragic this movie really is, how awkwardly some scenes are handled, how Dolores Umbridge is sheer evil, and how problematic splatergroit is.  So, grab your book of wizarding children's stories, your Mary Poppins bag, and say goodbye to some of your favorite characters as Adam and I dive into our analysis of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows:  Part 1.
