Queue the Oscar music, it's time for Hamnet! We're recording this before the Oscars are annouced so we hope it's the correct choice. Hamnet is an attempt to tell the story of how William Shakespeare's son inspired the famous play Hamlet. Mostly, though, it focuses on Will's wife, Agnes, and her story. Mike explains the story of Hamlet from the perspective of The Lion King, since that's the only thing Ethan has ever seen.

Time to warm up before Oscar month with Perfect Days! A movie by Wim Wenders about a guy who cleans toilets in Tokyo. It's a meditative little piece about what it means to find peace and happiness in life. Lots and lots of good stuff to chew on for this movie, which means a real meaty podcast about a guy basically just picking up garbage in a city!

"Extra Extra! Read all about it!" The Movie, could be the actual title of Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. The Transatlantic nostalgic vibes for the 30s are STRONG in this movie. Starring Jude Law and Gwyneth Paltrow, giant robots invade the world, and it's up to Sky Captain Jude Law to stop them! Along with Gwyneth Paltrow's character, who is written like you'd expect someone from the 30s would think about women. This movie is FULL of green screen. Enough to make George Lucas weep.

So, after dedicating almost an entire year to James Bond movies, we thought the best way to send them off was to do a final retrospective on this experience. And that includes, of course, a tier list of all the James Bond opening songs. We had so much fun recording this off-topic episode. We hope you have just as much fun listening to it!

We took a little break from Bond and Mike brought us back to watch Daniel Craig's second outing in Quantum of Solace. This is the movie Ethan hated, but maybe this movie with an absolutely forgettable villain will win him over! And most importantly, will this be the last James Bond movie we watch for the podcast?!

Y2K is like Stranger Things for the Millennial generation who grew up on Windows 95! Well, at least that's how it's pitched. Directed by Kyle Mooney, the movie follows a loser from high school who suddenly finds himself in the apocalypse caused by the Y2K bug! But it's crazy. The computers are walking around and trying to take over the world. Only Rachel Zigler can hack into the computers and save the day! Also Fred Durst??

Single All the Way is an odd Christmas movie. It feels like it wants to be a Hallmark movie with a gay dude in the center of it all, but it just has such an odd atmosphere to it. Peter is desperate not to go home from LA without a boyfriend, so he enlists his best friend to pose for him as his boyfriend. Then shenanigans ensue? Except not really, because his best friend already knows everyone and is really nice, and everyone likes him. Oh also Jennifer Coolidge is here to play herself.

I feel like Santa has brought us a varied list of movies this year, including a musical called The Mistle-Tones. Starring Tia Mowry from Sister Sister, The Mistle-Tones follows a lady who really wants to join a musical group of mean girls because, at some point, her dead mom was in that musical group. She recruits colleagues from her office group! Even her stuck-up boss, and that's where romantic shenanigans start!
