  • I just don't know about this one. The crazy set pieces are legitimately great, but when you have moments like Han coming back because "Mr. Nobody has a way of making things look real," I can't help but feel lke the movie is mocking me for wanting so…
  • bizmarkiefader said:  The cliffhanger for S2 was kinda eh... Yeah, this whole thing where you're trying to hide a mistake from somebody is my least favorite form of dramatic tension. The earlier plot with the voicemail was tedious for me,…
  • ray_x03 said: I binged the entirety of Schitt's Creek in 5 days (ultimate self-isolation madness). What a wonderful show that really spoke volumes about the potential for changes in individuals for the better, and a lovely queer romance that …
  • MrX said: Anyone else finish Hacks? I thought it ended very strong, and it got pretty deep in addition to remaining funny. Yes, and I loved it! Definitely ready for Season 2. I like that the show's going on the proverbial road, and I hop…
  • Garthgou81 said: I'd be curious to see how the pulp/prestige thing has done on an upcoming Empire Business. I've never quite understood the need for the differentiation, but if it has helped the guys, then aces.  I'm curious about that too…
  • Hatorian said: I think it’s because they just focused on small intimate interactions going on at the end of the world instead of big spectacle action pieces. I was on the edge of my seat for all of it.  Totally. I also think it helps that th…
  • Very weary of DC shows these days, but I loved that run of comics so much that I'll have to try it out. My favorite part about the Superman character is how he draws out the best in people around him, and therefore dad Superman is best Superman. 
  • bizmarkiefader said: Greenland - This was way better than I was expecting. It's an actual decent movie, not in the same realm as Children of Men but it's a lot less schlocky than 2012 or any of those other disaster movies I was expecting it t…
  • Garthgou81 said: The Father: Man, this movie destroyed me. Anthony Hopkins earned every bit of his Academy Award. Really fantastic, but very upsetting. So good! Maybe my favorite movie from the last year. What a flex for Hopkins to just ke…
  • This is a tough one for me. I guess I tend to think of pulp as things that I enjoy while I'm watching them, and prestige as things that provoke thoughts that stick with me or are worthy of reflection later on. I usually feel like presitge media has …
  • MrX said: Right on with the Happy Valley / Broadchurch comparison: I wonder if ARon had previously watched those type of shows his perspective and expectations would have been different. He always seems to be holding this show up to True Detecti…
  • lengmo said: bror.00 said: At least this movie had an internal logic that they stuck to and were logically consistent with. Ahem: Pitch Meeting Hahaha, this is so good. I was super into this movie and I am realizing that I jus…
  • RyanReeseman said: Real bummer how dismissive A. Ron has been of the whole thing but there were ultimately a handful of other great podcasts to make up for it.  This is one of the better season/series finales I’ve seen in a long time.  Ye…
  • Really enjoyed the ending to this show. This show isn't as stylistic and thrilling as Sharp Objects and True Detective, but I appreciated the characters and relationships so much more. I like that we got to know the victim before the death, and Mare…
  • Brieanne said: Crazy theory and forgive me on names, but I think the killer is the son of Mare’s friend (cousin of Erin) and the dad/uncle helped cover it up... uncle is taking blame because he’s being blackmailed by the father who knows he’s…
  • Weirdly I was super into Army of the Dead, but I can't think of any reasons I disagree with any of the critcisms I hear of it. I think maybe it just had a strong start for me. The opening sequence felt really fun and most of the characters were set …
  • Great podcast! I love this movie but have become sadly resigned to most people not enjoying it. I think you guys hit the nail on the head with the Lebowski comparison. So much of the joke is that the tropes that get projected onto the genre aren't r…
  • I've been watching Search Party on HBO Max. Kind of surprised I've never heard of this before. The main character is the niece from Arrested Development. I think it's very sharply written, and the mystery of the main plot is kind of interesting too.…
  • What a great episode. Obviously it's hard to talk about causality in a meaningful way with Dr. Manhattan (chicken and the egg and all that). But my takeaway is that he was disappointed by the perfect love he got on Europa, he went to seek the limite…
  • It's a great show and it's a shame to lose the full coverage. Hard to argue with their logic considering the timing and the numbers for the show. Maybe they could slip it into a Bald Move TV episode somewhere down the line. Maybe the future of TV p…
  • It's such a weird feeling to really enjoy this episode and then see the Internet, and several different pods I usually enjoy, think that it's the worst episode of Game of Thrones. I really agreed with Aron's point last week that it can be a bummer …
  • Season 1 was Jimmy being good for the sake of his brother. I wonder if Season 2 is going to be Jimmy trying to be good for the sake of Kim. It seems like so far, Jimmy's arc is about how to become his own man, but we know he gets pushed along and do…
  • Oh, man. I just saw Magnolia on the internal queue. That's my current favorite movie of all time. You guys better watch out or we'll turn you into a full time movie podcast with all these commissions!
