It's a Netflix episode!

Neil Patrick Harris lives in the Full House house. It's canon in the Matrix. Also Licorice Pizza is... controversial, but no one is talking about it. Except us. We are on the breaking edge of film criticism. 

Spoder-man. Spoder-man. Does whatever a Spoder can. Doctor strange, is in this film. Should he be? No... Look out! Here comes the spoder-man! Spoiler Discussion starts at 18min mark.

Was Ansel Elgort's performance worse than Jared Letto's? Are we tired of Lin Manuel Miranda songs where he says a spanish word immediately followed by it means in english?

Michael Moore, probably one of the most influential documentary filmmakers ever especially now. We look at Roger and Me and Fahrenheit 9/11 and his lasting impact on documentaries.

We saw Eternals which was bad... and Nomadland which was great. Both are directed by Chloe Zhao. What the happened?

CONTENT WARNING: Discussions of sexual assault and rape This week Keshav and Michael talk about Edgar Wright's new release Last Night in Soho and the controversial horror masterpiece Rosemary's Baby. These were two great movies with pretty heavy subject matters, but it led to a good discussion. 

Keshav and Michael talk about the legacy of Daniel Craig's Bond films and if the $165 million price tag for Dune will be too much to get a sequel green lit.  Sorry for not putting time codes. I am lazy.

This week we saw "Venom" and "Dear Evan Hansen". It's very spoiler heavy because you can't talk about a movie for an hour spolier free.  Share the episode if you think it's good, and if not idk text us and tell us it's bad.
