This week, it's trouble in paradise as we conclude the Before trilogy and keep it on brand with a big blow-up argument. Yes, February Is For Lovers continues with 2013's Before Midnight, once again directed by Richard Linklater, starring Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy, and written by all three.

It even earned Oscar gold for Linklater, Hawke and Delpy, who took home the Best Adapted Screenplay award in 2014.
If you'd like to watch the film before listening along to our discussion, it is currently streaming in Canada on Amazon Prime, Tubi and the CTV app at the time of publication.
Other works discussed in this episode include Fantastic 4, Dune: Part One, Anyone But You, Reality, Madame Web, Torque, Morbius, Kraven The Hunter, Venom, You Hurt My Feelings, The Last Duel, Nuff Said, Blow Out, and LOST.

It is currently streaming in Canada on Amazon Prime, Tubi and Plex. Until then, we'll see you at the movies!!
