“Endless Summer Vacation” by Miley Cyrus finds the singer achieving her biggest hit with “Flowers” and winning Grammys for the first time in her 17-year career. This week, Keith Montena and Carly Giacoio rewind and discuss how prior career moves and projects like She Is Coming & Plastic Hearts led the singer into a rough commercial territory despite being packed with solid material. With a label switch and new management, the pair investigate how her album rollout surrounding a New Years Eve special and fan-driven narrative surrounding Liam Hemsworth sculpted a huge commercial resurgence. Plus, hear about the album’s singles and creative collaborators through a track-by-track discussion.

This is a great discussion on movie poster design, its importance, its history and its trends, with graphic designer Matthew Therrien. Matthew designed posters for Drunken Cinema events and now does cover art for blu-ray labels like Severin and Synapse. We also discuss dealing with online haters, the Russell Brand and Sam Levinson scandals and much more! 

In this fantastic discussion, we get deep with culture/philosophy podcaster and writer Angie Speaks (Newsweek, Mystic and the Machine) to discuss puriteens, gender hostilities, and the emptiness of sexuality on screen in the context of HBO’s The Idol.
 
Sex vs. Sexiness. 
Men vs. Women. 
Hollywood vs. Our Souls. 

Julia and Miranda record this week live and in-person together to discuss the iconic show, Euphoria, through a queer lens.  Euphoria has been widely celebrated for being good queer representation, but Julia and Miranda want to really dig into the show, and question what exactly is queer about it--besides the obvious. Tune in to hear what they think is actually good queer representation, and what's just Sam Levinson failing to do his job. Ep. Recorded on Apr. 8, 2023.

In this episode we discuss the pilot episode of Euphoria, from Zendaya's masterful performance, to some of the interesting visual aspects of the show, to yet another installment of us discussing why some creators insist on calling television "long extended movies".

 **Euphoria deals with some heavy topics including addiction and talk of suicide and sexual assault, which we discuss throughout our conversation. **

W. Kamau Bell (United Shades of America, We Need to Talk about Cosby) has carved out his own, personalized niche in media, a blend of comedy, documentary, and community. His path didn’t always make sense to his peers, but he forged ahead because he felt that his mission was clear. That’s just one thing he has in common with Denzel Washington’s Eli from the underloved 2010 “post-apocalyptic neo-Western” The Book of Eli.

Yes it's got major plot holes, yes it's probably gonna take another two years for a new season, but after that finale - there's so much we need to unpack.

As one of the most popular shows in the past decade, Euphoria is definitely having a huge cultural impact. So what can we learn about the way it portrays sex, toxic relationships, addiction and cheating?

And is it a show that young people actually relate to? In the episode we hear your stories and chat to certified sex coach Georgia Grace.

A LOT to discuss in this episode. First off, the gang dissects Sam Levinson’s new film, Malcolm & Marie. Ify points out the explicit reasons why this movie was written by a white man. Alonso gives some insight into the world of film criticism. And Drea celebrates the joy and beauty of macaroni and cheese. Plus, they answer a question from the Who Shotline about movie merchandise, which ends up being more embarrassingly revealing than one would think. And, as always, we’ve got ‘Staff Picks.’

In news, Lil Yachty is producing a movie based on the game ‘Uno’, 185 LGBTQ German actors “come out”, and Charisma Carpenter speaks her truth.

Julia and Miranda share their thoughts on the already legendaric Malcolm & Marie starring Zendaya Maree and John David Washington.  TW // mentions of abuse and addiction. Episode recorded on Feb. 7, 2021. 

If you’ve ever overhead an argument between Jon and Will right here on Cinemaholics, you’re pretty much prepared for Malcolm and Marie, a new Netflix film directed and written by Sam Levinson. This enclosed black-and-white drama stars Zendaya and John David Washington, and critics are pretty split on this film about relationships and, well, critics. Also in the show, we play some listener voicemails about the state of movie trailers and review several other new films, which include A Glitch in the Matrix, Little Fish, and more.

Der neue Netflix Film mit Zendaya und John David Washington von Sam Levinson

Harry Plus recomienda Euphoria que pueden ver en HBO GO. Esta serie sigue a un grupo de estudiantes de secundaria mientras viven entre temáticas como la drogas, sexo, su identidad, traumas, redes sociales, amor y amistad en el mundo cada vez más inestable de hoy.

Hollywood star Naomi Watts on coming home to star in Penguin Bloom. Euphoria creator Sam Levinson on his Netflix film Malcolm & Marie which stars Zendaya and John David Washington, and a thriller that begins on a bustling African street and segues to a snowy corner of France.

In this thoughtful episode of Good Shit, W & G discuss the special holiday episode of HBO's Euphoria and manage to stay coherent for most of it! This is the first episode of a segment we call "Oh That's Deep Tho!"

Reviewing Ali's favorite movie of 2018 (you read that right), we give you Assassination Nation, directed by Sam Levinson. When the secrets of everyone in Salem are exposed in a massive data hack, the town literally goes batshit crazy–four teenager girls fight to survive the night. Join Ali and Sam as they recap this wild ride and try to forget the fact that Joel McHale was ever in this movie.
