IT'S LACHLAN'S BIRTHDAY! This week we discuss the Nominations for the 96th Academy Awards. What were the Snubs and Surprises? One of the films that unfortunately did not make the Final 5 for the Internation Feature Category is Aki Kaurismäki's Fallen Leaves, which is the film we are going to review in detail. The Sundance Film Festival has wrapped and Ewan caught some films virtually that he'll tell you about and Lachlan started True Detective: Night Country.
MAY DECEMBER is Deliciously Awkward
It's that time of the year when the films that premiered at Cannes finally release for all audiences worldwide and among them is this week's movie May December. Ewan shares his love for Todd Haynes filmmaking while Lachlan loved the movie more for its technical achievements rather than narrative ones. Ewan also caught some Christmas-themed movies like The Holdovers and «It's a Wonderful Knife» and they both sat through the horrible Family Switch, why? - they still don't know. Lachlan (re)watched a couple more Ridley Scott movies including Thelma & Louise and Gladiator and is very excited for the live-action Fallout series that just premiered its first trailer. Finally, Furiosa, The Boys Season 4, and House of the Dragon Season 2 all premiered their first trailers this week.
Is Avatar The Way of Water really all THAT? - 118
Ewan and Lachlan are back to talk about the long-awaited sequel to 2009's Avatar from James Cameron. Was it worth the wait? They also talk about Season 6 of Rick and Morty and the dropping quality of that show as well as The Fabelmans, The Banshees of Inishirin, and for some odd reason, Ewan sat through Minions: The Rise of Gru and Lyle Lyle Crocodile...
