We're back again, and we're a bit less excited to talk about The English Patient and the Oscars in the 90's. The film is a bit of a miss for both of the guys, but so close to being one of Connor's top 5 favorites. Jon just wants to send Ralph Fiennes to jail, and Connor is befuddled as to why so much of the press and BTS surrounding the film was just about Michael Ondaatje.   WARNING: Major spoilers for The English Patient   Follow us: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rulesoftheframe/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rulesoftheframe YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCII7_Fevn8na1ZkXyfUeTQA/featured

We're back after our year break, and we are so excited to talk Titanic and all things Cameron. We bring in sci-fi expert Travis Olson to talk about JC's least fictional film and hear his thoughts on why it's the greatest movie of all time. Connor shares many stories about his viewing experiences and Jon loves the scope and wishes for more films like this.

Connor & Jon bring on the final sibling, one Dima Skinner, to discuss the not-so-humble beginnings of the Fast and the Furious franchise. Jon's opinion wavers back and forth as to whether it is a rip-off of Point Break, Dima can't stand the nonsense car lingo, and Connor brings forth a defense for Keanu Reeves.

Connor & Jon once again dip into the deep well of Indiana Jones to discuss Spielberg's ward's attempt to make an action-adventure film. Together the two examine what separates Indy from it's rip-offs, why the adventure genre is so hard to tackle, and Walt Disney's famous last words..."Kurt Russell!"

It's our 100th episode, so we're bringing the whole gang back together. Join Connor, Jon, and Riley as they discuss Jean Renoir's masterpiece, the namesake of the show, The Rules of the Game. Connor adores the camera movements and staging, Jon tries to dissect the cultural elements, and Riley asks THE question "what makes a movie good?"

Connor & Jon get sent to space prison or Manhattan prison as they examine the weird Euro-action b-movie Lockout, and it's definite point of inspiration Escape from New York. They examine the actual legal action that was taken against Lockout and decipher how original of an idea did Luc Besson have? Jon thinks there's a better bad movie that could have been made, Connor is annoyed at the rules of space this film breaks, and both question the place of Snake Plissken in 80s' and modern action films.

Connor & Jon mosey on down to the ol' West/feudal Japan to consume one of the greatest spaghetti Westerns of all time: A Fistful of Dollars! Since there was a legal dispute over this film, does it automatically make it a rip off of Yojimbo? Connor gets way too worked up over a Rotten Tomatoes Top 100 list, Jon wants to propose to Morricone's score, and the two try to hold the show together through Covid and technical malfunctions.

Connor & Jon get spooked out by Tim Burton's claymation adaptation of his short film: Frankenweenie.

Connor & Jon are reluctantly dragged to space as they try to decipher James Gray's opaque space road movie.

Connor & Jon are joined by Thatcher Radler to discuss Joker and why it pulled so much from King of Comedy and Taxi Driver. Jon is bothered by the messiness of the Batman and DC universe.
