Read it and Weep

For the first move of the game, Ezra chose to move via Bill Paxton to the 2014 Cruise Missile movie Edge of Tomorrow AKA Live. Die. Repeat if you like spoilers in your title. The movie is great but it ends up in a somewhat controversial place in our Season 5 masterlist. What are your thoughts? Next up: Alex moves via Noah Taylor to the 2004 Wes Anderson (more like WET Anderson, am I right?) flick The Life Aquatic. Anthony has the ability to give Alex the first points of the year, but will he do

Welcome to a brand new season of Read it and Weep! This year we're doing something slightly different: we're playing an overly complicated game called Kevin Bacon's Exquisite Corpse. Listen now for all the rules and a fun conversation about Thomas the Hank Engine in space.

For our final episode of Holly Hunter Days, of 2021 and of season 4, we're kicking off our last annual Secret Santa movie exchange. We were each anonymously assigned a recipient and then chose a movie or show we thought they needed to see. And the results were pretty fun! Check it out.

It's our first annual (and probably last but who knows) Holly Hunterdays Hollyween episode so we dug back to the second ever Coen Brothers movie starring Holly and RiaW fave Nic Cage and John who is a very good man. It's a good time. And join us next week for our last episode of 2021 and the last episode of season 4, our first annual Secret Santa episode.

There really aren't many good movies about Thanksgiving, and we already watched the Turkey-based horror movie Thankskilling. So the only thing left was to watch the 1995 family comedy/drama turned rom com in the last 15 minutes, Home For the Holidays. Hopefully we got this out in time for you to listen while you travel, at least back home from the holidays.

In preparation for the new live-action Netflix version, we dipped back into the anime pool and watched the movie Cowboy Bebop: A Very Long Cowboy Bebop Episode. It's cool looking and the music rules and there's a dog but for some reason we mostly talked about other stuff. This one was REAL tangent happy.

Yeah I know we promised a week off, but we decided to postpone because we finally all saw the new Dune! And most of us liked it most of the way. Put on your poop suits and get dusty with us.
