I’m playing catch up with the podcast but I had a very different view on this, gone very close to the top of my list. Reminds me of Ben-Hur again when I loved it and you guys not so much. Great breakdown even if I disagree with the final thoughts👍
Well we are in the minority on our opinion of this one so who knows you may like it! - H
I think this is your most impressive episode to date in terms of criticism. You showed the utmost respect to something you truly disliked, broke down what you could, and still pointed out some good things that it did. Great job guys!
Thanks Dan! We weren't sure how it was going to be received considering how this is generally considered an amazing film, but it's good to know that what we offered was still worth it. Thanks again mate! - H
The Pianist! Oh that will be good
I think you missed how I quoted the Seventh Seal's view on rape at the end of my review. Was the funniest line in the whole film\
Refresh my memory
Mission Impossible 2 was way better than I remembered than 3 on rewatch by comparison
Surprised you had such problems with MI3
I started watching the Young Pope TV series today. Looks promising, even though about religion
So... it's actually just about a pope when he's young?
My subtitles were delayed
Exactly some people still love Hitler today
I'm hearing mixed things about Once upon a time in Hollywood
Me too. Trying to avoid everything I can about it, but expectations have definately stopped slightly. Maybe not such a bad thing tbh
Isn't that right Sally lol
I liked that one haha
