An ultra-rare episode appears: a Shelby Special! Shelby has many, many thoughts about Snow White, both as the original Disney IP and as a 2025 remake. She'll take you through a few things she liked about this remake (believe it or not, there were a couple of things), but she'll also take you through what this movie says about Disney as a corporation. Mentioned here: Wish not being 2D Hand-...

We're pretending like we didn't take a whole year's worth of a break before getting around to this, but IT WAS A BUSY YEAR, OKAY? Anyway, we're back and we wanted to give a little rundown of our favorite movies of each month for 2024. We hope you saw some bangers this year! From the episode: Dead Meat's "In a Violent Nature" Kill Count Twister: Ride it Out

In this episode, Shelby and Hamilton dork out over some of the deliveries that make their jaws drop. Every great speech does not need to be long, and it doesn't need to be an audition-ready monologue. When a speech is done right, it is perfectly placed in its scene and provides much-needed clarity to the character delivering it, the character it's being delivered to, and the theme of the film as a...
