This week's Movie-Go-Round is in our "Can We Just Talk About...?" theme, and we talked about 2009's Speed Racer. Is it as bad as some people say? Is it as masterful as other people say? How is it possible to get this much color onto a screen? Does the cartoony aesthetic work for it? What the heck is this chimpanzee doing here? Email the show at [email protected].

Shakespeare rides again for this Movie-Go-Round New to Two, with Brett's pick, The Tragedy of Macbeth (2021). Director and screenwriter Joel Coen went brotherless for this film adaptation of the Scottish play that is nearly as bare-bones as one can get. We talk about the strong performances, the stark black-and-white cinematography, the sometimes surprising casting, David says "yeet" in a surprising context, and Nicole says some variation of "pared down" a lot (do not use it as a drinking game; you will die). Next episode, we'll be asking "Can We Just Talk About..." 2008's Speed Racer. Email the show at [email protected]. Find us online by heading over to mgrpodcast.com.

You Did This to Us again here at Movie-Go-Round, so we had to watch the Sandra Bullock-Ryan Reynolds rom-com The Proposal. Neither Nicole, David, nor guest Phil Rood had seen this film in its entirety before, which was not a lack that any of us had perceived as a problem previously. Among other topics, we discuss the dearth of character development, the whitest town in Alaska, the use of puppies as currency with the local raptor population, and why you never start the shower without a towel in your hand. Next episode starts a new go-round, and Brett's choice for New to Two is Joel Coen's The Tragedy of Macbeth. Email the show at [email protected]. Find us online by heading over to mgrpodcast.com.

For Movie-Go-Round's latest Around the World pick, David chose the acclaimed Korean movie Parasite. Part con-artist tale, part parable about class warfare under capitalism, this Best Picture winner inspired deep discussion topics such as how wealth insulates and isolates people, how poverty can make moral purity arduous, what happens when the classes cross the lines of what's expected of them, and the heartache of life in a semi-basement. Next episode will be the You Did This to Us poll winner, the Sandra Bullock-Ryan Reynolds rom-com The Proposal. Email the show at [email protected]. Find us online by heading over to mgrpodcast.com.

This round's Future Classic comes from Nicole's list, and she, David, and guest Terri Lynne Hudson were eager to get into our discussion of Get Out. We covered a little of everything -- homages! Symbolism! Microaggressions! The Sunken Place! The T-S-mothatruckin'-A! And of course the old chestnut of "Is it a thriller or a horror movie?" Come listen and find out!

In this Can We Just Talk About? David brings the 1998 film 'Pleasantville.' Brett, David, and Nicole discuss why this film is a perennial classroom favorite, whether or not Brett understands the plot of 'Click', and, of course, Don Knotts' voice. Pleasantville wears its message on its sleeve - how does that fare all these years later? Also, the crew gets sidetracked... a lot. Email the show at [email protected].

The cycle begins again with Brett's New to Two pick, a time-hoppy microbudget movie from Japan called Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes. It plays with time, staircases, expectations, and monitor cables. We discussed its single-take conceit, the inherent paradoxes, peer pressure, K-dramas, and how smart people with glasses are (pushes frames up nose), among other things.

For this Movie-Go-Round You Did This to Us pick, you all chose The Beastmaster. I hope you're happy. We discussed the tale of Dar and his animal friends Todo, Kodo, Podo, Shouty Bird, and Tigger. Also Dar's skeevy tendencies, his quest for revenge, glowy Nyquil magic, Rip Torn making a house payment, and the unnerving bat-winged people who just want a hug. A melty, melty hug.

For this week's Around the World, we talked about Momoru Hosoda's 2009 animated film, Summer Wars (Soma Wozu). David brought it to the panel -- what's so special about it...and familiar? Is it possible for a director to plagiarize his own work? Is it possible for a massively popular novel and very expensive movie version to also rip off that same work? Did Brett and Nicole like it anyway? We discuss our real opinions of this virtual world on this episode. The side-by-side comparison of Summer Wars and the Second Digimon Movie: Bokura no War Game (2000) can be found at Actar's Otaku Life, The Plagiarism of Summer Wars? You can read more about eWorld at Remembering eWorld, Apple's forgotten online service. Next episode's You Did This to Us will be 1982's The Beastmaster. Email the show at [email protected].

For this Movie-Go-Round Future Classic, Brett nominated 2021's The Suicide Squad. We had a lot to say about the acting, the gleeful gore, the early exits of some of the characters, and the anthropomorphic shark. Did David and Nicole agree that this will become a classic of the modern age of superhero movies? We had a good time trying to figure that out! Come have a listen.

Welcome to our new theme, called "Can We Just Talk About...?" Brett, David, and Nicole each came up with 10 movies that they were desperate to talk about but that didn't fit the other categories, and we used a random draw tool to choose a movie from that pool. This round, Nicole was the lucky winner and we got to talk about Pacific Rim! Giant mechas punch giant monsters! Woot! Email the show at [email protected].

We kick off a new Movie-Go-Round cycle with Nicole's New to Two pick, Upstream Color. This head-scratcher seems to be about identity, interconnectedness, addiction, memory, trauma bonding, and...pigs? What did Brett and David think? Could any of us make sense of it? How was Amy Seimetz? And why do we have to keep playing the "Can we separate the art from the artist" game? Email the show at [email protected]. Find us online by heading over to mgrpodcast.com.
