  • Summary

  • And Other Things That Think They're Deep! Join Lindsey and Brooke as they prove that film criticism isn't just for the film nerds. We take movies that are thematically similar but received very differently and talk about them as equals because talking about movies should be just as fun as watching them.

  • 39: A Little Kristen Stewart as a Treat
    Mar 14 2022

    127 Hours with a Film Kid: In what Brooke promises is the last Oscar update before the Oscars, we discuss the change in program this year, and why 8 categories will not be shown during the broadcast. 

    Licorice Pizza: After Lindsey threatens to write extremely personal fanfiction, we discuss the desire to be head empty, but the unfortunate weight of consciousness that caused us to absolutely hate this film. 

    Adventureland: Lindsey contemplates one man’s chokehold on a suburban town’s weed market. We also discuss the worst possible time to shake hands, an even worse name for a fondue restaurant, and Brooke’s toxic trait.

  • 38: He is a Groundhog, Not God
    Feb 14 2022

    127 Hours with a Film Kid: Brooke breaks down the surprises & snubs of this years' Oscar nominations.

    The Winners and Losers of the 2022 Oscar Nominations

    Groundhog Day: We consider the potential length of the time loop, the casting that ended friendships, and the insane number of tragedies that happen in a small town in Pennsylvania.  

    Before I Fall: It's been a while since we've vicerally hated a film's premise, but boy howdy did we have a lot to rant about. We also manage to discuss heteronormative hell, the conspiracy theory of who trapped Sam in the loop and some of the worst ADR.

  • 37: A Town of Chatty Snakes
    Jan 31 2022

    127 Hours with a Film Kid: Brooke walks Lindsey through her personal picks for potential Oscars host, and gives many valid reasons to why it should absolutely not be James Corden.  

    Never Rarely Sometimes Always: Brooke gives the history of Antz and A Bug's Life which she swears is relevant, and then we debate whether or not this is a period piece and the luggage that serves a metaphorical purpose but makes no practical sense.  

    Unpregnant: In Brooke and Lindsey's new favorite film, we discuss the high school rumor mill, the worst place to take a pregnancy test (surrounded by teens), and the best use of "Since U Been Gone" by Kelly Clarkson.
