The Best of 2024 - Supplement

 While we try to cover as much as we can in our episodes, there's always more to see, hear, and read about a movie that can enhance your viewing experience. If you enjoyed our episode on The Best Movies of 2024, here's a few extra bits you might find interesting...

Best of 2024


Once again, we're discussing our favorite movies of the past year, in this case 2024. Despite it being a terrible year for us personally, the films were still great, so listen as we run through our top ten lists, which include disquieting depictions of religious and political conflict, disturbing bad behavior from rich people, and slapstick comedy involving fiendish but cute animals. Warning: Contains explicit language, some spoilers, and some futile Oscar hopes.

Our theme song is "Nostalgia TV" by Edward Jonathan Blakeley through Lynne Publishing.

The Best of 2023


It's our annual wrap-up of the best movies of the previous year as we dive into our favorite films of 2023. Listen as we rationalize why acclaimed "perfect" films didn't make it on our lists and praise the courage of actors willing to let it rip onscreen. Our movie choices feature debauched adventures of the perverted rich, triumphant big-screen adventures of our childhood heroes (whether plastic, geriatric, or atomic), and return appearances by auteurs such as Emerald Fennell, Ari Aster, and Brandon Cronenberg. Warning: Contains explicit language, mild spoilers, and multiple appearances by Larry Fessenden (yay!!).

The Best of 2021

It’s that wonderful time of year again as we list our favorite movies released during 2021. Listen as we discuss the difficulties of moviegoing in the midst of a pandemic and the importance of escapism in our choices. The movies we talk about include feminine descents into madness, off-beat convention-challenging Westerns, and a ton of amazing debut features from directors to watch out for. Warning: Contains explicit language, mild spoilers, and family scategoaps… scapegoats.

The Best of 2020

As we mercifully close the book on the mess that was 2020, it’s time to look back and discuss our favorite movies of the past year.
