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.

This week, Arthur is vindicated as the gang finally gets to talk Small Soldiers. Joe Dante's 1998 action-comedy about toys come to life is equal parts Toy Story and Gremlins. Featuring an all-star 90s cast, Small Soldiers sees two teens take on a fleet of G.I. Joe-adjacent toys known as the Commando Elite. We talk all about pastiche and post-modernism, military complex, masculinity and ideology and much more. Tune in now, and let us know what you think of 1998's Small Soldiers.
