Thomas and Deremy are pausing their regularly scheduled program to bring you something a little different. Sometimes there are topics that one of the guys is into, but one of them is not. So this week, Thomas and a guest will be discussing five essential Wes Anderson movies. Thomas is welcoming his childhood friend, and Wes Anderson fan, Ryan Page to the show to help with this. They had a lot of fun breaking down these very stylized movies. Also, they end the episode by ranking their personal favorite Wes Anderson movies.

This episode of the pod was a fun one, and was maybe the one with the most differing opinions yet. That makes sense, though, when discussing the films of one of the landmark directors of the 21st century. The guys are talking five essential Christopher Nolan movies. They have a guest, as well! AJ Klima will join Deremy and Thomas as they explore the essence of this unique director, whether his movies totally hit the mark for them, and maybe get to the bottom of some movie-nerd debates.
