What Movie Should We Do Next?

We put Evil Dead Burn to the test with a five-category scoring system, then argue over whether its violence feels like classic Evil Dead chaos or a clumsy attempt at a message. The conversation spirals into Deadite personalities, practical effects vs CGI, and why “send them to the mirror realm” might be the cleanest relationship advice we accidentally give.

3/5
• quick toast-driven intro plus listener shoutouts and pre-movie banter
• spoiler-filled plot recap focused on the funeral setup and Deadite spread
• acting breakdown with a clear standout Deadite performance
• cinematography talk on memorable gross-out shots plus CGI shortcuts and shaky geography
• score reactions that focus on franchise sound cues over a memorable theme
• plot and structure criticism including missing payoffs and unfinished beats
• golden path take on comedy choices and why likable characters matter in horror
• debate on spousal abuse themes and why the metaphor feels muddy
• demon cosmology talk on mirrors, suffering, and cosmic order vs randomness
• we insert ourselves into the film and pitch alternate arcs

What Movie Should We Do Next?

We review Sheep Detective with our three-part method, then use a talking-sheep murder mystery to get weirdly personal about memory, grief, and what we choose to carry. The jokes land, the whiskey shows up, and the “golden path” turns a simple family film into a sharp rant about algorithm-fed reality.
• our mind-altering setup with propranolol and bourbon
• quick plot rundown: sheep gain agency, farmer dies, mystery begins
• category ratings for acting, cinematography, score, plot, and rewatchability
• why the movie works as a kid-friendly bridge to death and loss
• missed opportunities with forgetting and the unreliable narrator angle
• the “golden path” on trauma, empathy, and the comfort of pain
• media silos, TikTok-fed opinions, and how platforms shape beliefs
• inserting ourselves into the story with alternate characters and darker stakes
• closing spiral on insurance incentives and daily-life absurdity

3/5.

What Movie Should We Do Next?

We rate Supergirl across acting, cinematography, score, plot, and rewatchability, then land on why the movie feels like a stack of missed chances instead of a character-driven breakout. We also call out how misogyny poisons the conversation while still insisting the writing has to earn its moral message.
• our three-part review method and what we are taking beforehand
• budget and marketing shock compared with what lands onscreen
• the plot setup with Kara, Ruthie, Krypto’s 72-hour timer, and Lobo
• acting takes on Millie Alcock, Jason Momoa, and the side cast
• cinematography highs including the intergalactic bus and truck stop
• score choices that either fit the character or break immersion
• plot problems with the ticking clock and a thin villain motivation
• the culture war problem and why it muddies real film criticism
• world building lessons from The Fifth Element and Chekhov’s gun limits
• the revenge morality that collapses under its own logic
• how we would rewrite Supergirl around trauma, therapy, and consequences
Listen to all our other stuff too. Yeah, just go down the list.

2.5/5
