Another TV show discussion this week with a look at David Lynch's Twin Peaks as well as the prequel film, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. We also touch on Lynch's other work and the evolution of TV.

Episode 179: Disney Live Action Remakes

We're covering another big collection of films this week with a look at Disney's recent history with the live action remake.

 

Apologies for some audio issues on my end. Everything will be back to normal in the next episode. 

Episode 178: Parasite

Time for another director's filmography retrospective where we look at the career of Bong Joon-ho with the main focus being on Parasite but with pitstops at his previous 6 films before looking forward to Mickey 17.

 

Note: this was delayed due to cyclone preparations that had to be made that took time away from editing. 

Episode 177: Oscars 2025

The show is back with the annual Oscars episode looking at this year's upcoming Oscars ceremony looking at the Best Picture nominees this year and the surrounding controversies, some of the other major categories and the coming year of film.

Episode 176: Captain America

As we are one to do, we're delving into the MCU for the first of many times this year with a look at the Captain America trilogy with a bit of a state of the nation address of the current state of the MCU peppered throughout.

Episode 175: Pan's Labyrinth

There's nothing to tie into this week so let's just cover a film from Guillermo del Toro with Pan's Labyrinth. We also talk about his career, the weird customs of European film festivals and foreign-language cinema in general.
