Summary






This week, all four hosts finally get to talk about Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, the Scott Pilgrim not-a-remake anime that is currently on Netflix, and they manage to do it without heavy spoilers (though they do talk about the premise of the series). Then, what’s up with Justin Timberlake? What happened there? Finally, all four hosts have seen Emerald Fennell’s newest Saltburn and try to process what that was.

Not since paycheck have I seen this taken Christmas in honor of John Wu's return to action cinema with silent night this weekend.

0:10.0

What director who released a film in 2003 is due for another film?

0:15.2

I'm Katie Rich and I have, I think, the objectively correct answer, which is Peter Weir,

0:19.1

Director of Master and Commander, who I believe made one film since then and is still around and like accepting

0:23.8

honorary Oscars and just not making movies and it sucks so we need it back.

0:26.9

He taught me to be weir again. Wow. He Boston weir. He, he did. He did

0:32.9

He Boston we're. I'm Matt Patches. I'm going to go with Tom Shadiac, who had quite a run,

0:38.9

that Ace Ventura, Liar Liar, Liar, in 2003, did Bruce Almighty, which is a little ifier I guess, but I don't know, I need a movie with jokes. Bring back the joke movies.

0:49.0

Hey, it's me, David the Seven, and I'm'm gonna go with Gore Verbinski. I do not want him to pick up the I think the last thing he was attached to which was a gambit movie for 20th century Fox but it was independent studio but I would like him to make another movie please.

1:05.1

1:40.6

Wills have a film?

1:38.6

Didn't he have a film last year called Decision to Leave?

1:41.3

That was excellent and deservedly on your ear endless as it was of mend that of many critics and I would say yes

1:46.9

But he has spent the time since then working in television which I think is just such a poor use of his particular talents, let alone his time.

1:58.6

With Robert Downey Jr.

1:59.7

He's not getting any younger.

2:00.8

And while I am excited for a television show I vomited my mouth thinking about the fact that he has spent so much time in energy working in TV when he could have been making movie features at a rate of more than one every six years.
