2024-11-26 02:09:08 +0000 UTCHas your opinion of a movie ever been greatly influenced by the order you watched it? To clarify: I saw Downhill (a movie which may not actually exist) before I saw Force Majeure. Downhill was tepid and flawed and ill-conceived, but it didn’t anger me. That is a stark contrast from nearly every movie critic. Note: I don’t think Downhill is good. Interested in your thoughts… Patrick from Pittsburgh

2024-11-22 12:06:36 +0000 UTCHi guys, i'm from Ireland and recently went to see Gladiator 2 with our handsome patron saint Paul Mescal. Whilst good performance, he suffers from one of our most debilitating issues - he has a "big Irish head" meaning no matter the costume, era or style he just looks like an Irish fella messing around. Do you view any American actors like this? - Barry from Belfast, Ireland

2024-11-21 23:38:54 +0000 UTCwhat would it take to get you guys to do more commentary episodes? I know you've done nothing but increase the amount of content we get, giving us more and more, and there are only so many hours in a day, so many days in a year, so maybe the answer to my question is just when one of these other series runs out, then you'll have more time. Also, I'm going to continue to subscribe to the highest tier no matter what that is, because I love you guys and think it's worth it. But I am just curious. And I don't know. Is it harder to do the commentary ones because you prefer to do those in one room together, or is it just hard to pick appropriate movies to talk over, that are a good fit for that format? Because I have loved them all from power hour madness to regular talk-along to some of the episodes that are just instant classic, could watch/listen to them a million times. I would love to know if there's anything I could do to make more of those happen.
