Lilo and Stitch (2025)

Aloha fellow cinephiles! We are continuing our look back at the culturally relevant films of 2025 with the second highest domestic grosser of the year (as of this recording), Lilo and Stitch. That's right, Disney has once again gone to the well to fish out another of their classic properties and attempt to make it live action. But what does that even mean? We discuss remakes, reboots, animation, and much, much more as we try to parse meaning from Disney's Lilo and Stitch. Tune in now!

The Killing of a Chinese Bookie (1976)

Hello GoodTrashers! Dustin continues to fly the plan this week with absolutely no regard for what is being asked of him. His mystery marathon continues with a pick from the actor's director, John Cassavetes. This week, we take a look at the director's neo-noir (maybe) The Killing of a Chinese Bookie. We discuss style, Cassavetes, the New Hollywood, and much, much more in this week's episode—we also breakout the 1-star reviews of shame! Join us now for a GoodTrash time!

The Parallax View (1974)

Hello friends and familiars! We return to semi-regular programming... but not really. Dustin has commandeered the ship and is programming the month of November. Spoiler alert: this is the first in a month long run of him skirting, avoiding, and flagrantly violating the rules of the marathon Arthur set forth. And he starts of this violation with the second entry in Alan Pakula's paranoia trilogy, The Parallax View. We talk media, journalism, the 70s, and much, much more this week. Tune in now!
