We witnessed one of the most terrible yet entertaining movies of the 80's. It's basically a rip off of E.T and it shows. A movie that was entirely funded by McDonalds. A weird alien that befriends an obnoxious child. So hang out with us as we laugh about everything in this wild ride.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aspectradiopodcast/support

Hello lovely listeners! It's Maggie; this week I am doing a solo episode on the latest film from Charlie Kaufman, I'm Thinking of Ending Things. What started out to be a mind bender quickly turned into my favorite film of the year. As I attempt to make truth out of what I experienced, I analyze the characters' motivations and the reality that what we perceive in the mind's eye is separate from reality. This film is full of existential dread, life's greatest questions, and experiencing the passing of time.  Closing Music/ danielhcomposer: youtube.com/danielhcomposer If you're interested in being in an episode or bringing up ideas for a future episode be sure to submit a response to the link in bio.    --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aspectradiopodcast/support

This week, we split up the commentary and each expressed our opinion for a film that wasn't quite working for us. Nolan has taken a step backward with this film, Tenet (2020). Stay safe out there if you're thinking of venturing to your local theater for this one- or take our word and wait until it comes out on blu ray. Trust me, you'll need those subtitles.  TIMESTAMPS:  Sam's Commentary- 1:26 / updates- 21:31 / Maggie's Commentary- 22:00  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aspectradiopodcast/support

Jimmy Stewart stares out his apartment window at unsuspecting residents uttering nonsense, being miserable, and saying "now wait a minute" for 112 minutes. You know and love his name! That's right- it's Hitchcock's greatest achievement in film. One of our better analyses. Rear is such a wacky word though isn't it? Let's not sideline the mesmerizing Grace Kelly and sassy Thelma Ritter, as they act in this swirling thriller of intrigue, murder, and conflicting relationships. "Intelligence. Nothing has caused the human race so much trouble as intelligence."  Excuse the ranting, we have been known to get off topic. But hey, if you can laugh at it than even better.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aspectradiopodcast/support
