You’re Tall but I’m Standing in Front of You

"What kinda would fly a plane into the World Trade Center?" As part of our 4-part series on 9/11's impact on garbage culture (and our garbage future), Ethan and Devin watch World Trade Center (2006). We discuss this ultimate exercise in too-soonness, its strange position in Oliver Stone's filmography, and its horrifyingly imperialist religiosity. follow the pod on twitter at @youretallpod or email...

"I love you, but I've chosen stopping weird crimes." As part of our 4-part series on 9/11's impact on garbage culture (and our garbage future), Ethan and Devin watch Spider-Man (2002). We discuss its vexed production history, its (accidental?) role in establishing the conventions of post-9/11 superhero movies, and its undeniably incel energy. follow the pod on twitter at @youretallpod or email us...

Devin and Ethan announce a special 4-part series coming this September, check in on some news updates in the You're Tall universe, and wade into the Wikipedia plot summary of Remember Me (2010).

Ethan and Devin watch Super Mario Bros. (1993). We discuss late-stage dino-capitalism, the impossibility of video game adaptation, and everyone's favorite Italianx-American: Rudolph Guiliani.

Ethan and Devin watch Aliens (1986). We discuss the gender and racial politics of the space marines, and the aesthetic death of the 1970s, and James Cameron's symbiotic entanglement with Capital itself. follow the pod on twitter @youretallpod or email us at youretallpod@gmail.com

Ethan and Devin watch Predator (1987). We discuss the multiculturalism of paramilitary death squads, the limits and affordances of imperial muscle mass, and how at the end of the day we're all just trying to get to da choppah. follow the pod on twitter at @youretallpod or email us at youretallpod@gmail.com.
