In this episode, Roy and Angela sit down to talk about one of their happiest comfort zones in film land: Movie musicals!

From childhood classics that raised us, to modern movie musicals that wrecked us in the best way, we go through the films, songs, and scenes that turned us into full time musical geeks.We talk about what makes a great movie musical, how some soundtracks basically became personality traits, which films still hold up on rewatch, and which ones secretly live rent free in our heads.

Expect strong opinions, a lot of laughter, some light singing energy, and a very honest chat about why these stories hit so hard.Tell us YOUR favorite movie musical in the comments. Is it a golden age classic, an animated banger, a modern stage-to-screen adaptation, or a chaotic deep cut only you and three people on Letterboxd remember?

What's up, Cinegeeks!

We have a massive episode for you today as we are joined by our good friend, the one and only Smash of SmashThatScreen! Together, we're tackling two of the year's most anticipated films.

First, we dive into the wicked world of Park Chan-wook’s 'No Other Choice.' We discuss how this savage dark comedy starring Lee Byung-Hun stacks up against the director's legendary filmograpy, and compare its powerful themes of economic desperation to another modern South Korean masterpiece: Bong Joon-ho’s 'Parasite.'

Then, we come home to discuss the monumental finale to TBA Studios' historical trilogy, 'Quezon.' Directed by Jerrold Tarog, this 'Bayaniverse' epic sees Jericho Rosales take on the towering and complicated legacy of President Manuel L. Quezon. We explore how the film portrays him not as a flawless hero, but as a charismatic, brilliant, and deeply flawed political operator.

It’s a stacked conversation, and you won't want to miss Smash's insights. Tune in!

We're clearing out our watchlist with a massive movie round-up! This week, we're catching up on four of the most talked-about films of the moment, and they could not be more different.

First, we plug back into the grid with TRON: Ares. Is this long-awaited sequel a stunning audio-visual masterpiece powered by a Nine Inch Nails score, or is it all style and no substance?

Next, we answer the call for Black Phone 2. The franchise takes a huge swing, moving from contained psychological horror to a full-blown supernatural slasher. Does this new direction work, or should The Grabber have stayed on the line?

Then, we lighten the mood with Aziz Ansari's directorial debut, Good Fortune. With a high-concept "life-swap" plot and a cast featuring Keanu Reeves as an inept angel, Seth Rogen, and Ansari himself, is this the charming comedy of the year?

Finally, we tackle a heavy one: the German documentary RIEFENSTAHL. We discuss this complex, challenging portrait of Leni Riefenstahl—Hitler's infamous propagandist filmmaker—and the new archival material that dismantles her lifelong "apolitical artist" myth.

Join us as we break down what's worth your time (and what isn't) in our latest episode!
