As much as we enjoy our chosen quote, it's got nothing on the 1987 original film's "I don't wanna be the only asshole in heaven."
We unanimously agreed Michael Cera owns the remake with his long johns, firefighter's pole, and Home Alone style deathtrapped house. But we have some questions. If you had to go on a game show to save your family, which one would you choose? And does anyone else subconsciously shout "stop filming me" at every public event?

On another recent Unprocessed field trip, we had the opportunity to screen Kelly Reichardt's new film in Asheville, NC. If you're in the area, be sure to check out one of our favorite spots, the Fine Arts Theatre.
The Mastermind features a stacked cast, a beautifully muted color palette, and some mesmerizing jazz. Join us as we discuss the irony of this film's title, the effectiveness of lingering on tedium in filmmaking, and our nostalgia for 70s/80s style McDonald's food.

Is everybody okay? Hard question to answer after seeing this movie. And I never thought I’d cry again while *editing* a podcast episode, but here we are!
Though we debated Terrence Malick and the effectiveness of narration in filmmaking, we unanimously agreed that Joel Edgerton owns the screen with every glance. And listen out for some glorious, unintentional sound effects throughout our recording.

Remember how Frankenstein’s monster has bolts through his neck and can barely speak? Now throw that memory away and hit play on del Toro’s version, diving back to the original book by Mary Shelley in both aesthetic and dialogue style.
Prepare for beautiful sets and scenery, but we’re split on who amongst us has walked out of a del Toro film immediately wanting a creature boyfriend.
Frankenstein is available to watch now with a Netflix subscription.

Max Minghella’s second feature film took us for a ride. From Looker to Look Who’s Talking references, we now have a long nostalgia list to rewatch ASAP.
And shockingly, some of us weren’t entirely convinced not to go ahead and call Arian Moayed for an appointment… Will the treatment provide us with Kate Hudson’s entire wardrobe from this film though?
Shell is available to rent or buy on Apple TV, Fandango at Home and many other services! It is also on Paramount+ with a subscription.

Linklater is always a must see for us. But now we’re getting self-conscious about the appearance of our back skin… and the fact that none of us could pull up the name Stephen Sondheim to save our lives.

Wanna have a paranormal adventure that has absolutely nothing to do with the whole rest of the Halloween/Michael Myers franchise that came before (or after!) this film? Check out H3!
And honestly, sick masks, Silver Shamrock. 10/10, would wear. Are you buying the pumpkin, witch, or skull? We’re also disappointed we didn’t disintegrate inside a laser beam when we visited Stonehenge.

Join us as we dissect the 4DX experience, debate filmmaking vs. Disney World rides, and reminisce about the original Tron from 1982. We’re also realizing after 2 for 2 that our secondary theme for this podcast could be people getting slapped across the face…
