AYA VS. THE BIG BOYS vs. MOMMY.... How Freudian!
Closing out June's Pride programming double feature is Xavier Dolan's explosive, Tumblr-friendly MOMMY, one of the most discussed & adored films of the 2010s.... Until it suddenly became one of the decade's forgotten smash hits. Huh? How'd that happen?
Young men making movies in their 20s, MOMMY's huge year amongst film bros and subsequent burial from the critical consciousness, and Dolan's bizarre choice to inject dystopian sci-fi in a domestic drama. Also, the duo answers once and for all: why is Xavier Dolan in IT: CHAPTER TWO?
Your speakers are fine, Aya has just become an NPR Andy. Who is Aya hiding from? Is there someone in the house? Aya?..... AYA???

This is it.... The end of A(24)PRIL, and a deep dive into one of the looming cult classics of the coming decade, David Robert Mitchell's polarizing UNDER THE SILVER LAKE.
Comedian, writer, and The New York Times + Teen Vogue-minted journalist Maddie Connors joins the show to talk INHERENT VICE, neoliberal monocultures, Andrew Garfield's queerbaiting, and working through having crushes on skater boys with your therapist: there's a full spectrum of hate, light enjoyment, and pure love in this episode. We told you it's a polarizing movie.

Pack your travel bag and join the crew as they trudge through America's flyover states to sell you a 12-month magazin esubscription to Power and Motoryacht: A(24)PRIL continues with Andrea Arnold's hot pickle and trap-rap opus, AMERICAN HONEY.
Aya & Kevin discuss auteur-driven poverty porn, Sasha Lane's approach to character agency, and mourn the dearly departed ArcLight Cinemas. Then, they're joined by designer Rachel Wood to hear about her ill-fated internship at the 2016 Cannes Film Festival (where she saw AMERICAN HONEY surrounded by rich weirdos!)
Do we trust Andrea Arnold with these stories? Should anyone be trusted? Do we really got no type?*
*yes, but bad bitches is the only thing that we like

Aya follows her lust for Ben Affleck and dips her toes into her very first Kevin Smith film with CHASING AMY, a truly demented combo of warped queer theory, Miramax leveraging, and a director telling you he's learned his lesson while very clearly not learning anything. Kevin Smith got GOOD WILL HUNTING made? This movie is about WHO?? Jason Lee is a Scientologist???
plus reactions to FALCON AND THE WINTER SOLDIER and an end-of-episode announcement for our next mini-series....

Kevin and Aya watched a 6-hour long Marvel movie, and, yknow what: Scorsese's being too nice lmao.
American authoritarianism in the MCU ("You see, the difference between you and me is that you did this on purpose" jesus christ), appointment television, grief as window-dressing, and the logic of Scarlet Witch and The Vision settling down in... NEW JERSEY???
please stop turning Marvel movies into Big Boys so we can stop watching them.

Happy Valentine's Day to all the lovers out there! On this special, extra isolated fake holiday, Aya and Kevin are joined by Merry-Go-Round Magazine contributor Amanda Ball to discuss one of the most highly esteemed film trilogies ever made: THE BEFORE TRILOGY. Three feature-length films of some of the purest love ever depicted in cinema – and probably what inspired that one weirdo on the Metro to try and ask you about what book you were reading. It's the most films ever discussed on a mainline episode, and, as it turns out, these movies that can be distilled down into "two people talk for like 90 minutes" are actually some of the densest films the duo has ever faced off against.
Just how annoying is Jesse in BEFORE SUNRISE? Is BEFORE SUNSET like TWIN PEAKS: THE RETURN? At the end of almost two decades of projecting onto them, do we really want Celine and Jesse to fight BEFORE MIDNIGHT? Most importantly, why do the French suck ass?

Sundance 2021 is dominating their lives, so, yes, Aya and Kevin are fashionably late with a look back on one of the most fabled Sundance premieres in recent memory, Rick Alverson's THE COMEDY, one of the most booed and walked-out-of movies in the event's history.
Joined by Jackie Quinn, the team discusses anti-comedy & disillusionment in the 2010s, how much it sucks that Lena Dunham made a great TV show, and sweet Park City memories from Sundances' pasts.

We'll be honest: we 100% expected the United States to be in complete flames post-Inauguration (reality: it was super boring), so in anticipation of massive bloodshed, Aya and Kevin decided to spend their final moments alive pounding beers and watching ALITA: BATTLE ANGEL. And why not dude, it's a Power Hour, too, sure, welcome to the BATTLE ANGEL POWER HOUR.
Aya and Kevin get plowed to smithereens by the secretly perfect 2019 cult classic, exploring the coziness & perversions of anime, Rosa Salazar's incredible earnestness, and the surprising similarities to Bong Joon-ho's PARASITE.
ALITA HIVE RISE UP !!!

As far as years go, we can collectively agree that 2020 was the ugliest piece of shit of them all. Not only did everything go poorly, but the movies? Not even good! Kevin & Aya waded through the muck to present their top 3 films of 2020, the rare gems in a field of shit, handing out trophies for their esteemed Bronze Boy, sacred Silver Boy, and the coveted Golden Boy: the best film of the year.
The duo vibe checks the past 8 months of AYA VS. THE BIG BOYS, determine the hottest of the 30 flicks they've covered so far, and set their sights on what they think is the definitive Big Boy of 2020.

Happy New Year! 2020 was a shotgun to the senses, and we're not anywhere near out of the woods yet, but Aya and Kevin take a note from The Frida Cinema's playbook and take a look at a definitive NYE movie: BOOGIE NIGHTS.
Joined by Merry-Go-Round contributor, Hilary Jane Smith, the trio explores the apocalyptic rise of Reaganist conservatism as seen through porn, Mark Wahlberg's career as a comedic expert, and a way-too-invasive psychoanalysis of a drug-addicted, family-yearning, 26-year-old Paul Thomas Anderson.
