“Interesting contrast listening here to another I like with gen x men. As someone from gen x, it’s fun to hear next gen takes on old faves or bombs. I wish they would cover more women, but I am a horror, oddity, and art house fan, and it’s comfort to listen to takes on fave genres, etc.
Thanks...”Read full review »

“I am almost done listening to the entire show and from the latest episode to the first I consistently love hearing these guys talk about and explore vast and varied swaths of film history.
Be aware that some of these 1 star reviews are really off base. If you haven’t listened to the show some of...”Read full review »

“Listened to the occasional (interesting sounding) episode over a few years and in that time the show’s hosts have gone from being mildly annoying to overwhelmingly irritating. The hosts talk too much trash to be respected, whether they’re laughing at people with personal problems or just behaving...”Read full review »

“Interesting perspectives on movies I have seen and tons of insight to offer on things I haven’t seen or even heard of. Lots of content here and the Patreon is also well worth the added episodes. This is one of Will Sloan’s two best movie podcasts. Thanks for the introduction to Gold Ninja Video....”Read full review »

Great stories about the film festival scene as well, and a desire on the part of the hosts to give listeners something they may not have heard of. The Patreon exclusive...”Read full review »

“This has become my favorite podcast over the years.

Even if you have no interest in the particular director being...”Read full review »

“When I was a high school student, I absolutely loved movies. Whenever I had free time and five bucks to spare, I would run down to the local movie rental place and pick up whatever looked interesting. But after a spat of trying to be an adult, I fell out of love with cinema. I just didn’t feel I...”Read full review »

“As I long time listener, I’ve really enjoyed Will Sloan’s gradual rediscovery of the magic of movies, a full about-face from his early ‘academic curmudgeon’ persona. The pod as a whole has been extremely informative and has pointed me toward several new favorite films and genres.”

“Each episode will cover a director, subgenre, etc in only about 15 minutes. This isn’t enough time to provide anything but the most superficial coverage. Not enjoyable if you have any familiarity with the topic of the episode as you will likely already know everything they have to say.

“These two are the best, make their audience feel less weird, and delve into any corner of cinema you can imagine.
