The cultural event became the highest grossing film of all time, edging out Avatar. This week, we explore the final chapter in the Infinity Saga and discuss spoiler culture, cinema, the Disney machine, Lacan, failure narratives, and much more.

As our 2019 retrospective begins winding down, Arthur kills the mood by choosing Jennifer Kent's follow up to The Babadook, The Nightingale. This Tasmanian period piece is a brutal, realistic take on the revenge thriller. Kent crafts a beautiful film that is increasingly harder and harder to watch. This week, we take a look at the three big Es on the eye chart: racism, colonialism, and assault. Before any of that business, we expand our syllabus and break down what we like and don't like about the movie.

Hello! Happy December! We're back after eating all the turkey to continue our 2019 retrospective. This week, we're looking at Dalton's pick, The Kid Who Would Be King. Joe Cornish made a little splash with what has become a cult hit in Attack the Block. But, its been EIGHT years since that little cult hit came out. And he's back with an adolescent take on King Arthur lore. This week, we talk all about nationalism, King Arthur, absent fathers, and chosen ones. Tune in now to hear our thoughts on this little seen fantasy adventure.
