GoodTrash GenreCast

GoodTrash Media

A movie analysis show looking at your favorite cult and genre films from across cinema history. Each week, Dustin, Arthur, and Dalton try to apply academic rigor and critical analysis to the films you wouldn’t talk about in a film studies class while having a few laughs along the way. It’s the conversations you have in the lobby of the multiplex with a little more room to breathe, and the occasional footnote. Stay tuned to the feed for bonus episodes on new releases.

GTGC #282 Revenge of the Green Dragons

GoodTrash GenreCast ·

2018/09/07

We keep the Asian-cinema going this week with a look at a film distributed by wunderkind studio, A24. In recent years, A24 has become the new Miramax, boasting a near flawless record of critically-acclaimed indie darings. They made kicked off with a bang, dropping the cult hit Spring Breakers. But has their success and praise always been deserving? We go back to 2014, the second year of A24, and look at the 15th movie they distributed in that short time span, Revenge of the Green Dragons.

2018/09/05

Welcome to a special edition of the GoodTrash GenreCast. On this week's show, we have a patreon-sponsored movie. Our patreon supporter, Keithan, got to set the programming for this week, and he stayed mostly true to his roots with this pick. He sets us up with the kinetic, high-energy Fallen Angels from director Wong Kar-Wai. Fallen Angels is a dreamlike piece that is more experience than story, so is it worth your time? Tune in and find out.

With our Growing Up in Summer marathon behind us, we decide to move on to bigger and brighter things... Or, something like that. If nothing else, we giggle. A lot. Because, we return to our regularly schedule program with what many have called the worst movie of 2017, The Snowman.

Across the country, schools are getting back in session. And with that, summer is unofficially over. Which means, the Growing Up in Summer marathon must come to an end. And we decided to go with a Dalton and Arthur favorite, Charlie Bartlett. They both love it, but will Dustin hold it in the same regard? In a twist, Dalton was unable to make it to this week's show! But, he sent his thoughts in for our review and game.

GoodTrash GenreCast ·

2018/08/10

Our Growing Up in Summer marathon is winding down. We only have two more stops. This week, our film journey brings us to the aughts and places us in small town Texas. We got a bit tired of the male-centric stories we were looking at, and decided to look at a female-led, female-written and female-directed film. That's right, we're talking Drew Barrymore's Whip It!

2018/08/03

I know what you're thinking, "Isn't it about time to wrap this marathon up?" Well, here's the thing. We do what we want. And we only got to the 80s with Boyz N the Hood. The way we see it, we gotta take this Coming-of-Age Marathon all the way to today. Or, at least the aughts. With that in mind, we enter part five of our marathon, move into the 90s and discuss the emotional gut-puncher, The Perks of Being a Wallflower.

2018/07/28

The summer continues and so do we! That's right, we've gotten a little older, a little wiser and a little cheekier as we move into the fourth entry in our Growing up in Summer marathon. This week, we move into the 80s with John Singleton's Boyz N the Hood. Due to the film's success, Singleton became the first African American to be nominated for the directing oscar. He is also the youngest nominee in the category at the age of 24. But, does the film hold up? Or is it simply stuck in the 80s?

GoodTrash GenreCast ·

2018/07/15

Our lives keep changing as the summer progresses. That's right, our Growing up in Summer marathon continues this week with the 80s classic, Dirty Dancing—which takes place in the summer of '63. Dirty Dancing offers quite a few differences to Stand by Me. It's never as nostalgic, it features a strong female lead who comes from money. While class is a part of Stand by Me, it drives the narrative of Dirty Dancing.

Ciao, and welcome back to your favorite film analysis podcast! We're back with one more show, much to Dustin's chagrin. Coming out of The Loveless, we were still in the mood for some bad boys. So, we thought nothing seemed more GoodTrash appropriate than F. Gary Gray's 2003 remake of The Italian Job. Zero to Sixty with The Italian Job We thought, what could be better than Marky Mark, Jason Statham, Mos Def and Charlize Theron pulling a heist in Mini Coopers? Well, almost anything, apparently.
