That Final Scene

If you often find yourself asking "What did I just see?" after the film credits roll, this podcast is for you. Join us as we dive into the (plot) twisted world of final scenes in film and TV show history.Think Inception. Parasite. Avengers: Endgame. Shutter Island. Call Me By Your Name. Some endings just stick with you. While others...well, you may want to leave them in the past (What was Dexter thinking?). In other words, endings are complex - and can rarely be "explained".

Hi hi hi. With The Rings of Power Season 2 back soon (yikes) AND the upcoming The Lord of the Rings prequels, we realized we could not prolong the wait any longer. We had to sit Simon down to finally watch LOTR with us.

Which is also why I sound a tad tired and said Dark Towers vs Two Towers, please forgive me 😭Expect Part II and Part III in the

This is the most timely podcast episode you'll hear this week - it's OSCARS 2024 PREDICTIONS time!
