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.

After 150 episodes, we make it to a galaxy far, far away as we discuss the first (fourth?) chapter in the space opera that is George Lucas' Star Wars. We look specifically at Episode 4 - A New Hope. The discussion gets heated as we discuss the movie on its own merits and try to remove the cultural and nostalgiac goggles for the franchise. We talk auteurism, fan culture, personhood, and Hollywood this week. We then discuss our favorite fictional universes before a discussion of what has us fired up in pop culture. And finally, Alex reveals her host pick for next week; what is it, you ask? Well, tune in to find out. Oh by the way, do you think he means old Ben Kenobi?
