Sean is the type of film school bro that made me not accept my place in film school. Do enjoy the dynamic between the two hosts though

Fire Amanda, Joanna is a marvel shill, Sean is only tolerable in short doses, and Wesley Morris is a joke. Simmons is current day belichick drafting unlistenable podcasters.

Confused and lacking substance. More into their own sound bites. Don’t waste your time.

Eh
Grating and pretentious hosts

More Chris

too much boring banter and amanda is that annoying kind of white woman who can only relate to other white women

Loved it! Do more like it! I actually love all episodes focused on one single movie :)))
Manny CR via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/25/23
Sean and Amanda make a great team! The relationship that Sean and Amanda have built is part of this podcast’s charm. It is a listen I look forward to each week.

Sean is wonderful and a movie savant. Joanna Robinson is wonderful when she is on. This podcast cannot continue with someone with open disdain for *whole genres* of movies. This podcast gets a 5 with Joanna (or Mallory) as the cohost.

Sean & Adam talking about Fincher is smart and entertaining. More Mr. Nayman please. Thanks for the deep dive on this one - The Killer.

Normally love Sean’s discussions.. but why do you bother talking about hunger games if you haven’t even read the prequel or have no interest? They maybe aren’t from you lol let people/teens, have their things

She is wildly unqualified for such a cool job. I don’t know how that happens but I’d love to find myself in a similar situation.

The two main hosts are the worst part of their own podcast.
DevereuxWigs via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/20/23
Does Amanda yell “Listen!” as an intro to a thought in her real life interactions, or do only we have to hear it? I’m HALWAY through an episode (the Marvels November 2023) and she’s said it Seven. Separate. Times.

Thank you for this Podcast! I switched over to listening to The Big Picture early this year when another film podcast I was listening to got too pretentious. The dynamic between Sean and Amanda is fun - yin and yang. I'm constantly impressed by Sean's film knowledge and I am so...Read full review »

I even find the insider banters adorable. Somehow brings me back to my college days in the US. Love from UK. But maybe Amanda can shriek a tad less?
H Mit via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/15/23
Amanda Dobbins is excruciatingly loud, obnoxious and uninformed. Has nothing to do with here being a woman, mind you, but the show is solid and she ruins it. And as you can see in the reviews I’m not alone. She’s thoughtless, seems to hate most movies and would to talk about her husband (poor...Read full review »

So Randy on here talks about post-capitalism. What does he think that means. Movies are the frivolous luxury of capitalism. What does that make what you do dingdong?
Matt 5237 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/14/23
The hosts are great. And if you don’t Iike Amanda, just go listen to Joe Rogan, dorks.
BranPart via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/14/23
i enjoy the conversation for the movies i'm interested in, but the host dynamic is not thereRead full review »

…but this show is not. So, great job on being more entertaining than what will probably be the last Marty movie.
Jody Eugene via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/11/23
Please never have Adam Nayman on the show. He’s so pretentious and his tastes are so narrowed he hates all popular movies and only wants to talk about things 5 people have seen.
childplease34 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/11/23
I don’t have Twitter and I don’t know where to find your email but you said you needed movie draft ideas My friends and I do a mix and match draft and I created an all star comedy draft so goal is to determine who has best draft but also compare their careers. Each pick will cross out an actor...Read full review »

Was interesting to listen to the Fincher Draft episode as I’m a huge fan of his work but after what felt like 30 minutes of them arguing about the format of the draft I gave up before they even started talking about the films. Perhaps long-time listeners would have found the banter between the...Read full review »

I’d love to erase the mean and hate-filled attacks on people. Maybe I can just push them away. I remember listening and running years ago while they were discussing Hitchcock movies. They’re like family, who don’t know I exist… so like my Dad.
CreepsLovers via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/10/23
Really enjoy the analysis butch eyes glaze over when Amanda talks for more than 2 mins consecutively. Maybe she can do a Gwyneth Paltrow / Goop fan girl show and let Sean and Chris cook.
Tenoshoes via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/09/23
. . . sometimes one of the hosts takes things off on too much of a tangent. “What seat do you prefer in the cinema? What snacks? Bathroom breaks? What is your favourite beverage? Where do you like to go before and after?” I can appreciate the opinions of people viewing movies without needing to...Read full review »
tylerandjack via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/09/23
How is it that the most thoughtful and concise review from the Killers of the Flower Moon pod came from the producer? Bobby outshines Sean and Amanda and he speaks for roughly five minutes. Amanda seems like she doesn’t care about movies at all, or even thinks about what she’s going to say before...Read full review »
shy_10 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/08/23
Amanda needs to go. Her voice is not meant for a Podcast. It’s a movie draft set the rules never change them and pick.
heeeey Joe via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/07/23
Me every ten minutes: Amanda is so real for that Update: still love Amanda, keep it up!
7437-lock via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/06/23
Listen to the Fincher Draft episode to hear everything wrong with this podcast.
Scott Kilkenny via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/05/23
Have never even left a podcast review but the way Sean talks down to Amanda makes my skin crawl… even in jest saying things like how does your husband deal with you etc when she’s voicing VALID POINTS, just ew ew ew. Loved hearing detailed analysis about killers of the flower moon but Sean I wish...Read full review »
kellysoftheflowermoon via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/03/23
When he’s talking about Fincher or Scorsese or one of his favs it’s like he’s working through something from his childhood it’s so intense. Thank god for the lady in those moments for saying “yeah it’s really good!”
Bunny Cub via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/03/23
The categories should have been: - Thriller - Blockbuster - Oscar Nomination - Wildcard (Only movies! This is the Big Pic!) - Scene & Sequence (could be from movie or television; can be a repeat from a movie pic) - Music Video or Advertisement Chris missing a category because of constraints...Read full review »

I don’t even think your husband likes you.
Nolan Barnes via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/03/23
The show has its hits and misses, but I love the chemistry when CR is on the show. The draft episodes alone make this a follow for me.
HeelsInDC via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/01/23
Dear nasty film bros, The show NEEDS and relies on Amanda’s takes. Grow up!! Amanda I love you and love all your opinions!!!
wildcat3 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/01/23
The hate against Amanda in these reviews is insane however I do agree with comments that the episodes are often too long. You don’t need to regularly have 2 hour episodes. Bobby plz cut them off
BreezeNicole via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/30/23
Show needs more Amanda, please.
Netty White via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/30/23
Way Too Much Banter
pod2099999 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/29/23
I listen to a lot of movie and film podcasts. The problem that most have is they are hosted by bro-y people who want us to listen to their endless shared stories from college (or whatever earlier life connection they have to each other)and their inside jokes. The Big Picture thinks it doesn’t do...Read full review »

Lots of weirdos big mad in the comments!
Genericnickname12123 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/27/23
I love this pod but Amanda and Sean bickering is so effing exhausting. Good grief.
JPHovercraft via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 10/27/23
Ok
Just ok
kdub35357 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/27/23
“Thematically rich masterpiece” is apparently code for “uneven late-career misfire”. Made you think of Boetticher? What a bizarre dilettante thing to say.
Coralflorida via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/26/23
Show is good. Much movies.
FlyingDeathBot via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/26/23
Maybe stick to films! I can understand why Sean is no longer a music critic. When Amanda said evermore was Taylor’s worst album and Sean went on and on about how she is an inauthentic woman who writes breakup songs for 12 year old years, knew this criticism was not going to be poignant or...Read full review »

I won’t insult anyone personally or maliciously as some have here. That’s gross. and i’ve loved this show for a long time. But y’all, come on more “I WANT THIS 600 DOLLAR MUG” less film and actors
