Talking In The Theater

Down here, in this podcast, we all float.

In this episode, the first in season four, we talk about John Wick, Keanu Reeves's return to actually successful action films after the smash hit The Matrix and the less smash-hitting sequels. Is it any good? Well, if I was going to tell you the truth, I'd be dead by now.

In this episode, we return to the virtual world created by the Wachowskis, and talk about the 2nd and 3rd movies in the Matrix trilogy. We find them severely lacking in spoons, among other things.

In another episode of "Let's watch a kids movie Morgan liked when he was a kid", we take a look at Bedtime Stories. In this film, Adam Sandler has a niece and nephew(collectively "nibling") who are accidentally wizards, and Sandler is purposely a hotel handyman. Supposedly, hilarity ensues. It is a Sandler movie though, so, does it?

In this episode, we talk about green ASCII characters falling from the sky. Of course, I'm referring to the Matrix, one of the most famous films of all time. Ironically, it also includes difficulties related to recording a zoom call. Some of it is going to sound a bit weird. Sorry. Oh, also Keanu Reeves. The internet really likes him. Do we win? Do we get points?

We aren't thieves, but thankfully in this movie, Nicholas Cage steals the Declaration of Independence for us. I think that's really the takeaway from this one: make Nicholas Cage steal historical objects for you.

What?

This is a movie that Morgan loved. Did he manage to hit the mark and convert Andrew, or did his love get blown to bits? Find out on this episode of Talking in the Theater. Come on those were two... passable puns right there. It's great.

This episode, me and Morgan found a movie we'd both heard of that was on Netflix: Inception. I don't think either of us expected to have the experience we did with it, but here we are, with an hour long podcast mostly dominated by discussion of a shot that comprised less than 0.5% of the film.

Last year for Christmas, we did a Hallmark movie. A royal Hallmark movie. So, obviously, this year we had no choice but to do one of the Netflix movies that are designed to compete with Hallmark movies. And which one of those would be better than the royal Netflix movie, A Christmas Prince? You know what, probably all of them. But this is the one we chose, and here we are. Enjoy.

We talk about this random movie from 2011 that Morgan really likes. It has Hugh Jackman. And robots. Plus, robot boxing. Like the sport... not the process of robots... being boxed. That'd suck. But does the movie suck? Listen... listen to the thing if you want to know that. Or watch the movie. Probably that second one because we definitely ruin it for you. But then after that listen to us. Please. We're lonely.

It's Halloween, and last year on Halloween we talked about the absolute... spoiler-free move that was The Shining. Apparently, that constitutes a tradition around here, so here we are with another movie adapted from a Stephen King book. This time our critique is a little less... one-sided.

We talk about the sequel to Wreck it Ralph. Except we don't break the internet. Or do we? No. No we don't. Anyway, here's the very important detached outro. It is very important. Listen to it VERY carefully, and VERY loudly. http://bit.ly/tinttIMPORTANT1

We talk about Jumanji 2. Or the Jumanji reboot. Or whatever you want to call it. All we know is that we do, in fact, talk about it. And some other random things along the way.

We talk about Bird Box. That's what we do. Hopefully our opinions aren't blind. Okay that was a bad pun. Sorry.

Merry Christmas. I'm not going to write the rest of this. That's too much work. Enjoy the show.

We talk about a disturbing, terrible movie that is a shadow of what it could have been. Screw whatever Morgan says, I write these descriptions.

We discuss the 2018 film A Wrinkle in Time. Critically panned, will our opinion be any different? You'll have to listen to find out. Actually, no, you don't, we totally hated it.

I didn't lie! There is something for Halloween. Just don't get used to it. To keep doing things every day would be quite literally impossible. Also we do Kubrick's "The Shining" in this one so yeah... that's about all there is to it.
