    About this Episode

    In this episode, we are discussing two new movies that recently started streaming. First up, we talk about Amazon's 'The Voyeurs' and the continued use of Hitchcock's 'Rear Window' story in pop culture. Additionally, we discuss movie sex scenes, their function, and how the sexlessness of modern blockbusters affects the way we now view something like the erotic thriller. Then, we review 'Kate' and go over the upcoming Netflix streaming movie slate.

    Hosted by Zack Miller and Stephen Williams

    Ep. 99: Netflix's 'One Piece' adaptation and the race to turn anime into live-action IP

    This week, we're talking about the good and bad of Netflix's 'One Piece' live-action adaptation, along with some of their other recent attempts like 'Cowboy Bebop.' Adapting anime seems to be a big source of IP right now for streaming, but is it actually working? And is it adding anything to these stories? We discuss.

    Ep. 92: The excellence and difficulty of 'Beef' and other problem conversations about (probably) bad people

    Ep. 92: The excellence and difficulty of 'Beef' and other problem conversations about (probably) bad people

    We're returning to talking about 'Beef' now that we've both completed the show. It's an excellently written TV that feels transcendent but also finds itself in controversy because of past comments by one of the cast members. We discuss what it means for the show, what it means to consume art by people who are likely bad people, and how we try and often fail to find the right ways to talk about it.
