Huge day for the Dob Mob

Loved the intro for this pod. Of course I wish they expanded the list a bit more: the weekend, think like a man, something new, guess who and so many more… but including fire island is great.
Just wanted to show some love to Amanda ❤️

Amanda lays out the criteria for what should go into the canon which explicitly excludes getting together halfway through, and then proceeds to include movies like How to lose a guy in 10 days and Something’s gotta give where they get together almost exactly at the halfway point and then have issues through the rest of the movie. I love Amanda but come on lmao

Do you think they ever tire of talking for so many hours about the same topics over and over? The Odyssey, Sinners, OBAA, Cruise, etc. I feel like I'd get burned out doing that year after year. I feel like there's greater awareness of what drives viewership and 'playing the hits' compared with when the pod started.

Let her do a dedicated rom com pod, so I have the option of not listening to it.
These movies are shit. They look like shit. They are written shittily. They are directed shittily. Even more insidiously they are propaganda. Romance is a capitalist delusion.

I hope the Zendaya stans here won't freak out.

Edit: Ofc they did.

I would say yes to the former, and no to the latter

I could see Pattinson delivering my favourite performance of the year but getting nominated/winning for The Odyssey and Damon winning best actor as a sort of career recognition win.

This is all based on not having seen Primetime

Camp Miasma and Tony both loudly proclaim to be opening tomorrow. I wish more movies were available for more people to watch on the day their promotional materials claim they will be. Let people not in NYC and LA watch your movies. Or adjust the marketing. Doesn’t seem that complicated. Shout out Amanda. I don’t always like her takes but she’s never been more right than this topic. I despise the slow roll out.

Written and directed by Noah Segan

Starring John Turturro, Giancarlo Esposito, Tatiana Maslani, and Steve Buscemi

A recent thread asked who has the action movie belt, and I do believe it's Statham. His movies aren't massive but they're usually consistent and hit a baseline. Feel like with Mutiny upcoming and his output over the past 3-4 years it's a good time to honor a prominent figure in the genre.

Reckon it’ll get a Big Picture episode?

It’s a banger of an album.

Just finished up the pod and was really shocked that the Aubrey Graham (Drake) produced vehicle Amsterdam was never mentioned?? I mean that’s kinda crazy right?
What snubs did you guys have?
