I'm Annie. I'm N'Ne. I'm Noah.

And this is No such thing, the show where we settle our dumb arguments and yours by actually doing the research. On today's episode,

we're getting to the bottom of the twin film phenomenon.

There's no such thing. No such thing. No such thing. No such thing. No such thing. No. Touch. Thank.

No.

Touch.

Thank.

Okay.

We're here to talk about twin films and why they happen so frequently.

But first, obviously, we have to know what a twin

film is. So we're talking about a pair of movies that have extraordinarily similar premises.

I like that. I like that pronunciation, too. And that release within a year of each other.

There are some outliers with this.

Like there are some twin films that come out more than a year apart.

And there are some outliers that have to do with the plot as well.

Like there are some movies that seem similar at first, but then when you watch them, they're not really that similar.

We're dealing with that right now with Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein and this movie

coming out next year from Maggie Jillon Hall.

I think it's called The Bride.

Sometimes both of the twin films are popular, like Finding Nemo and a Shark's Tale.

Oh, yeah.

I forgot about a Shark's Tale. I was a Finding Nemo home, so we didn't watch no Sharks Tale. Finding Nemo was definitely, I think, the more popular one. Yeah. But at the time, they were both big. Yeah, Shark Tale was a classic, like, substitute teacher. Yeah, that's like I remember renting that, I think, renting the DVD or something. Yeah, you weren't going to theaters for that one. But, you know, finding Nemo, we had the tape. Yeah. You own that. And Will Smith delivers a master class in Shark Tale. Now, my man Sykes has just begged me not to murderize all y'all up in here, all right? Now, I might listen to him, but then again, I might not.
