"The most oppressed minority: gamers." It's 2024! And we talk for a bit about how Nimona (2023) was released in (2023)! Whoops. We took a break for a while but we're getting back into it. This is a good movie and this is a good movie podcast episode about a good movie. We also talk about The Last of Us (the video game and tv show). Enjoy.

"Marriage Story but it's Donkey and Dragon." Welcome back, all you shreaks. Put your shrocs on, get a shrack, and shruddle up with us while we discuss Shrek 2 (2004). We talk about the Shrek gospel, what we would get cancelled for, and the future of the Shrekiverse. This episode is a little unhinged but stick with us cause I swear it gets good.

"It checked the box for plot." It took some getting there but after 2 months and some heated arguments over the definitions of a comedy, a coming of age movie, and misogynistic actions, we finally reviewed Superbad (2007). Jordine joins the boys on this episode and presents her declaration of the two kinds of comedy films, so don't miss out.

"Inside of you there are two wolves and one has a duel deck." This episode, we get a good look at the Daniels' first feature film: Swiss Army Man (2016). It's a good time talking about giving Hank a hug, Sarah's involvement in the story, and why Manny the corpse is so much more than a boner compass. Hashem makes Leander upset too, so make sure to listen till the end.

"I'd like to walk that all back." In hot anticipation of Oppenheimer, we take a gander at a big classic: Dr Strangelove or: How I Stopped Worrying and Learned to Love the Bomb (1964). Grab a snack because we get into Stanley Kubrick's directing style, the way we watch black and white movies, and how to go about our daily lives with the threat of nukes hanging above our heads at all times. (Pro tip: the trick is to stop thinking about it).

"He's in a jungle. Wearing beige." This week's pick got us a bit of a longer episode with a discussion on Good Time (2017) and a larger analysis of today's Hollywood. We get into the mud talking about Robert Pattinson and Nicolas Cage's comebacks, what a movie has to accomplish to have you sit through the credits, and the parallels between Fortnite and Everything, Everywhere, All At Once.

"You're willing to die on this hill?" The tables turn this week! Hashem brings in another hot classic, Accepted (2006). After a lengthy discussion about...nothing...Leander manages to get his head around the thesis statement of this hard-hitting psychological drama comedy thriller coming-of-age college film.

"My heart is not made of obsidian." We pull out a classic this episode with The Sorcerer's Apprentice (2010), featuring Nicholas Cage, Secrets by OneRepublic, and a severe lack of melancholy. Tune in to find out who's wrong this week.

"It's no Joker, but it's pretty good." Warm Bodies (2013) takes the stage this week on Jump Cut. In this episode, Leander discovers a love for libraries and comic books, while Hashem changes the Jump Cut movie-picking-meta.

"We're better commentators than friends." This episode, we catch up! The itinerary for this episode includes a check in with the boys, followed by an engaging (and 'content warning'ed) discussion on Perfect Blue (1997), our guest's recommendation from last time. Catch the conversation on this light-hearted anime flick in this episode of Jump Cut.

"It's a song about the internet." "Did we both say a song?" Welcome to Jump Cut everyone, where today, we bring a resident Anime Expert TM to the scene! Joining us today is George, to talk about Belle (2021) and how it really is just Beauty and the Beast, but anime. We discuss anime tropes, what makes them cool, and how this movie makes the internet look the coolest.

"I am an advocate of women's rights and women's wrongs." Anne Hathaway rises to power in The Intern (2015) and we get INTO it. If you're looking for a discussion on growing old and watching your friends die -- I mean, unexpected friendships later in life, this is the podcast to catch.
