| 0:00.0 | Hello everyone and welcome to Slash Film Daily for Thursday, March 16th, |

| 0:06.8 | latest film and TV news. My name is Ben Pearson, I'm an editor at slash film |
| 0:10.4 | com, and I'm joined on today's episode by slash film editor and chief |
| 0:13.6 | film critic Chris Evangelista. Hello. Chris I think it's time for us to |
| 0:19.1 | finally reunite for an old school news episode. |
| 0:22.8 | It's been a while since you and I have done one of these, |

| 1:20.2 | this going to be the first time that somebody makes a movie involving a critic character that doesn't like actively loathe movie critics. |
| 1:29.0 | And that was, I thought an interesting observation because they're so, like Birdman I think is probably the key example off the top of my head of a movie where there's a stand-in for you know a movie critic I think it's a theater critic in that film, and it's basically just an excuse for that director to use that character as a punching bag and like, you know, air all of his grievances with critics that he's encountered over the years. |
