Horrible effete commentaries

“I came across this podcast and decided to try it out because they featured an interesting selection of movies they were reviewing. It's a bit interesting that their commentaries and reviews can be triple the length of the movies themselves.
I found many of the commentaries to be obnoxious from effete self-appointed elites. Specifically, I listened to the the reviews and commentary on "The Thing" and "The Running Man". Ascribing the box office failure of "The Thing" to Reagan-era politics as they did was just ridiculous. Reagan took office in Jan 1981, "The Thing" was released in late 1982. "The Thing" was indeed underappreciated then (and frankly still is) but the commentary was idiotic.
In a similar vein, I was annoyed by the Brit reviewing "The Running Man". The ultimate irony in their 2017 commentary was that the very bit the commenters were talking about -- the selective editing by corporate media, manipulation of the general public, etc. is exactly what's been happening in the last 5 or so years but by the people they presumably support.
I was hoping to hear bits about the craft of the films and got a little of that on "The Thing" but "The Running Man" (which is sadly proving to be as prophetic as "Demolition Man") was filled with political diatribes and snide remarks.
Some might say to give it more of a chance but I've wasted too many hours on this podcast as it is.”Read full review »

“The amount of work and effort that goes into this podcast is something to behold. Interviews, critiques, music, trailers... these are just the tip of the encyclopediac completeness each episode holds. It's also really fun.”Read full review »
