Dave and I talk about the incredibly uncomfortable new Gaspar Noe flick Climax. We also rant a lot. The grumpiness continues!

On this episode, Dave and I get really grumpy about IT 2, movies in general, everything! We always get pissed and morose after a bad one. And IT 2 was a *bad* one.

Today we have our first guest! We are joined by author Rios de la Luz to talk about giving up on artists that you used to like, how to make scenes tense, and Tarantino in general. JDO finds himself surrounded on all sides by people who didn't like the film. Will he convince them the movie was good? Listen and find out!

On this episode we talk putting actors' lives in danger, JDO's obsession with cults, the creepiness of folk music, and the consequences of innocuous decisions.

We talk naps, rain, Bandersnatch, the limits of meta, the importance of The Matrix, John Wick dance fighting, and a movie filmed inside of an asshole.

In this episode, Dave and I discuss the new weirdo flick from the director of It Follows. We talk about where it went wrong, what it got right, but mostly...we talk about how it bears an eerie, almost uncanny resemblance to Dave's novel The Last Projector. That's right, folks. We might have a case of some "inspiration" on our hands. Don't believe us? We think the evidence speaks for itself... You can read the book that (maybe? probably? sort of? kind of?) inspired the film here.

In this episode, Dave and I give an honest to god review of the new Marvel movie. We also talk about a stuffed armadillo. Major spoilers ahead!

In this episode, Dave and I talk about vaguebooking, print-on-demand movies, negative energy, The Silence, the banality of the apocalypse, Scare Tactics, Between Worlds, the mystery of Nicolas Cage, black holes, and penis compliments.

On this episode we talk about how to ask someone to repeat themselves without sounding rude, people addicted to being mad on the internet, allegorical storytelling, US, and nu-metal. The tech gremlins were in full effect so I don't sound as crispy cool as normal, but it's a really good episode.

In this episode we talk boom bang superheroes, goth murderer cannibals, tattling on talkers in movie theaters, past racism, writer hierarchies, and book piracy.

On this episode, Dave and I talk about a glorious satanic mess of a movie, a nice subversion of the heist film, and a hot take that posits Jar Jar Binks as a demon who destroyed movies.

Spoiler alert: our "worst of" list have mostly been nominated for Oscars.
