Join us for a movie that will definitely mess up your algorithms and most likely put you on a watch list if you search it online without including the words "movie" or "in fiction" afterwards. Look, the Swedish journalist who wrote the original book named it, if you've got a problem with that, take it up with him.

Stealing a page out of the book belonging to In Each Retelling, we mark the release of Wicked For Good by doing the closest thing Lucasfilm ever made to The Wizard of Oz -- a coming of age fantasy musical that features a singularly famous pop star in as one of the two leads in a very... intense relationship.

Maybe there's more to this than we realized.

It codified the tropes while subverting the tropes, spawned a legion of sequels while mocking endless sequels, and gave a lot of my friends the answer to a very important question. But as a SCREAM neophyte, am I going to end up the final girl, or the first victim?

Scream is rated R for strong graphic horror violence and gore, and for language, with mild depictions of sex and nudity. Please proceed according to your needs and comfort.

Is it ever really worth remaking a movie that's generally considered a classic? Most people would say no, but most people are not Steven Spielberg deciding he wants to bring the musical New York street gang Romeo and Juliet better known as West Side Story to the big screen again, sixty years after the original. Who's going to say no to STEVEN SPIELBERG?

The subject of this episode is a movie that depicts various forms of racial and ethnic discrimination, most notably anti-latine racism, as well as acts of sexual assault, gang violence and police violence, and by extension our discussion covers those topics as well.

Hey, kids, want to see what kind of movie gets made when the entire cast and crew has access to a lot of schedule II narcotics, some of the greatest musicians of the 20th century, and a script that was originally the size of the yellow pages? You're in luck, because this puppy (slaps the Bluesmobile) has it al!

The subject of this episode is a movie from the 1980s that is rated R for depictions of sex, violence, profanity, smoking, and drug use, much of which also went into the process of making the movie. Please proceed according to your needs and comfort.

The subject of this episode is a movie from the 1980s depicting the 1950s and includes comedic material surrounding sexuality and non-white cultures typical of both those time periods.
