What makes camp, camp? What is the best campy musical? In part one of this two part series, Jazeen and Stuart try really, really hard to answer these questions so some success maybe, sort of? They watched Rocky Horror Picture Show and Little Shop of Horrors for this rumble and chatted about things like Steve Martin's ability to act like a total butt, they're love of Tim Cur

Which one of these movies is more fun and why? Stuart and Jazeen get ranty, they get mad, they cannot believe one of these things got made. Clue, based on the board game, focuses on a mysterious dinner party full of mysterious guests in a mysterious mansion. All being blackmailed, the dinner guests are given a weapon, a candlestick, a knife, a gun, and so forth. They’re faced wi

Stuart and Jazeen talk about how stories should have a central question that gets us invested, why having a symbol in a movie isn’t enough to make Stuart care, how to make Pulse 10% better (there's no saving Dark Water) and how Jazeen went from a lover of J Horror to not. Pulse centres around three disconnected storylines trying to figure out why in the heck people in Toyko k

Stuart and Jazeen talk about the charisma and talent and skill of Philip Seymour Hoffman. FAN GIRLZ! They talk the wacky film editing choices made in the early 2000s, Marisa Tomei's addiction to biting her lip, Stuart's hatred of title cards, Jazeen's hatred of musical mofits that are so on the nose they're annoying and Stuart's hatred of directors who think the

Stuart and Jazeen chat about up and coming director Jane Shoenbrun's only existing films (to date). Unnerving, fresh and very pink and purple, "We're All Going to the World's Fair" and "I Saw the TV Glow" are two films to watch if you love Lynch, Cronenberg, themes of isolation, media, and coming-of-age. We talk about how there are maybe too many end

We chat about how Furiosa would be absolutely mind-blowing... If Fury Road didn't already exist. But it does. We talk about missed story and character opportunities with Furiosa, how Fury Road is the best action movie ever made (maybe) and what if Wes Anderson remade Fury Road? Quick. We have to save the brides. What if, indeed.

I am excited to talk to my childhood friend and business lady extraordinaire, Sarah Todd. She chose The Fellowship of the Ring (2001) which still freaking holds up. We talk about how hobbit doors are very impractical, how Gandalf is straight blazin' 24/7, and how we think Sauron is just a hurt little boy that needs a hug.

This episode I'm joined by Natalie Shore — the guitar shredding, lovely human being and half of London, Ontario's dopest rock duo, Hot Soda. Natalie chose a little short film called Harvie Krumpet (link below to watch) that packs a punch right in the feelings. We chat about how creepy claymation is, how everyday is magical and of course, the band and their debut single "Bubblegum

In this episode I'm joined by some pals from a screenwriting class I took back in 2018 — Lance, Quinn and Shahin. Lance chose this flick, War for the Planet of the Apes (2017), and we chat about everything from the incredible CGI work by Weta, the moral dilemmas in this movie and why I don't like kid characters in films. You can find Lance's cinematography/writing and films at h
