A movie analysis show looking at your favorite cult and genre films from across cinema history. Each week, Dustin, Arthur, and Dalton try to apply academic rigor and critical analysis to the films you wouldn’t talk about in a film studies class while having a few laughs along the way. It’s the conversations you have in the lobby of the multiplex with a little more room to breathe, and the occasional footnote. Stay tuned to the feed for bonus episodes on new releases.

We wrap up November with a sci-fi adventure as we discuss Stephen Spielberg's adaptation of the beloved novel Ready Player One. Set in the near future in a dystopian world where everyone thrives online, Ready Player One is a feast of nostalgia and pop culture. But is there any meat in this dish? Or is it all sweets? We dig into the smorgasbord of intellectual properties provided by Warner Bros. to discuss nostalgia, pastiche, the online world, taking back power and means, and much more as we head into the Analysis OASIS.
