Episode 210: 3 WOMEN w/ Annapurna Sriram, Director of FUCKTOYS

OMG OMG OMG I cannot BELIEVE the episode we have for you today. Hey friends, welcome back to another incredible episode of Cinepunx, the podcast that just won’t quit! On this episode we were blessed to welcome writer/director/actor Annapurna Sriram [https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1871001/?ref_=tt_ov_1_1] of Fucktoys [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt35515220/?ref_=fn_all_ttl_1] [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Fucktoys-Annapurna-Sriram.webp?resize=1065%2C600&ssl=1] If for some reason you missed our incredible episode with Justin Pearson discussing how much we loved this movie, you can find it here.  [https://cinepunx.com/cinepunx-episode-207-fucktoys-w-justin-pearson/] I don’t wanna be presumptuous but I am relatively sure Annapurna is like really our friend now, which rules. I never doubted it honestly. On this episode we were so excited not only to discuss some of the making of  Fucktoys but also the movie she chose for us to discuss, Robert Altman’s 3 Women.  [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075612/] [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/3women-1.jpg?resize=1067%2C600&ssl=1] [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/twins_3women.png?resize=1071%2C600&ssl=1] As well as diving deep on both movies, we do our usual Wack and On Track gimmick and discuss all manner of awesome and terrible things. You know, its a podcast, we say stuff and it is cool It was an insane gift to get to talk to Annapurna and I really hope we get to do it again cause she was so fun and interesting to discuss film and life with! You have to see her movie if it comes anywhere near you! Go to the one night screening or festival ASAP and you will not regret it! Our intro song is a weird Big Freedia track (fingers crossed spotify doesn’t nail us for it) and the break song is from Ink & Dagger because of course it is. I cannot remember honestly if there is anything special I needed to post in the notes so just hit me up if I forgot something.  Love yall! Thanks for listening!

Episode 209: BOUND(96), HONEY DON'T!(25) w/ Adrianna Gober

Hey friends, good to see you! On this episode of CINEPUNX we are joined by our friend and yours, Adrianna, to discuss two sapphic noir films: BOUND [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0115736/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_bound] and HONEY DON’T [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt30645201/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_7_nm_1_in_0_q_honey]! Because Josh so recently expressed his displeasure with one of these movies you might think this episode is some kind of set up, but trust me, that is not what this is. Adrianna is a thoughtful and insightful film expert and she has very interesting things to say about both films and the conversation is a lot of fun. The truth is we love Adrianna so we would have her on to discuss anything at all. I have to apologize though, we recorded this a bit ago but I had to edit this one myself and I just kept putting it off due to life stuff. Sorry friends [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Bound_008.jpg?resize=1110%2C600&ssl=1] [https://cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Margaret-Qually-Honey-Dont-Tricia-Cooke-Ethan-Coen.avif] [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/AAAABQ7-DW0Uourt6EKpPeei-d-2N_yQfmCAzhABogs8MgtI0zTbAW3C3Y6unPSF_G9H8FqCdf0xwDrAlaFdjao1EyPt7XNNGrWOy0VC.jpg?resize=1067%2C600&ssl=1] [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/880365_m1746652755.png?resize=600%2C309&ssl=1] Honestly, when the world is falling apart and everywhere you look it is easy to forget how good life can be because the evil folks are winning again and again; talking with friends about shit you love is just a gift. Thank you for the gift of your attention to it. I appreciate it greatly. We do all our usual gimmicks as far as wack and on track. I don’t THINK I need to provide any links but hit me up if you want some connects. Our opener song is MINDFORCE and the break song is RIGOROUS INSTITUTION from here in Portland. Ok thanks buds.

Episode 208: NEW MOVIE ROUND UP 2025

WE ARE THE HERALDS OF GOOD AND BAD MOVIES, HERE TO ENOUNCE THE DOMINION OF CINEPUNX OVER THIS PODCAST GALAXY! Hey buds, we are back with a new low effort episode for you to enjoy! Look, Josh sees a ton of movies. He gets invited to press screenings constantly and it seemed about time for him to check in and give you the run down on those movies. Now, do I see as many as him? Well in preparation for this episode I went to see a few, but no, generally speaking I cannot even hope to keep to keep up with Josh. JUST FINANCIALLY SPEAKING I COULDN’T DO IT! I will give you all one update since we recorder, I went and saw Highest 2 Lowest and I did NOT love it as much as Josh does on this recording. I dug the lest half of the movie but the film starts off rough for sure. [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Highest-2-Lowest-Main-2025.webp?resize=1065%2C600&ssl=1] [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Sorry_Baby.jpg?resize=1067%2C600&ssl=1] [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Nobody-2-Bob-Odenkirk.webp?resize=1065%2C600&ssl=1] [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/eddington-2-1200-1200-675-675-crop-000000.jpg?resize=1067%2C600&ssl=1] For our regular listeners who could literally not give a fuck about new movies I thank you in advance for your patience on this one. I still think it is a super fun convo though. This episode begins with a track off the new Public Opinion record and the break song is by Yield To None. Both bands are sick, check them out. We also still do wack and on track and discuss some really fun stuff that is you wanna know more about you gotta hit us up, that’s just the facts. Thanks for listening!

Episode 207: FUCKTOYS W/ Justin Pearson

WE ARE BACK AND INCREDIBLY EXCITED TO DELIVER THIS EPISODE UNTO YOU! Hey friends, welcome to episode 207 of Cinepunx! Not only do we welcome guest and hopefully new friend Justin Pearson [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justin_Pearson_(musician)] of Swing Kids, Some Girls, Crimson Curse, Three One G records, etc. to the show, but he has brought us the incredibly unique opportunity to discuss a movie so new it is not even really in wide release yet: FUCKTOYS [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt35515220/?ref_=fn_all_ttl_1]! [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/fucktoys-still-1000x600-1.jpg?resize=1000%2C600&ssl=1] [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/f-cktoys-318472.jpg?resize=950%2C534&ssl=1] Additionally we discuss the EVERYTHING IS TERRIBLE classic Doggiewoggiez! Poochiewoochiez! [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2635832/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_doggieswogg] which is incredibly and maybe even impossibly a remake of The Holy Mountain made entirely out of clips from dog related media.  [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/sLXJcIVmN3Sqkn5FqLb3tk2LQgC-1200-1200-675-675-crop-000000.jpg?resize=1067%2C600&ssl=1] [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/image-w1280.webp?resize=1067%2C600&ssl=1] The intro and break music for this episode come from two of Justin’s recent projects, Deaf Club and All Leather, and we hope you dig them. Of course, on top of our discussion of these two films we also have all our usual shit talking and shenanigans we hope you enjoy. Huge thanks to the director of Fucktoys, Annapurna Sriram [https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1871001/?ref_=tt_ov_1_1] for allowing us to watch a screener of the film for discussion. Huge thanks as well to Justin Pearson for being such a fun, interesting, and gracious guest. It is great when you get the opportunity to interact with someone whose work you respect and discover they are also a great person! Thanks for listening!

Cinepunx Episode 206: CITY ON FIRE / SCHOOL ON FIRE or our Ringo Lam Double

CINEPUNX IS BACK WITH ANOTHER EXCITING, RIVETING, EXPLOSIVE and of course SWEATY EPISODE! Here. on episode 206 we burst into your eardrums to take our first tentative steps into the films of Ringo Lam, [https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0482681/] classic Hong Kong director. We begin this journey with two films in a thematic trilogy but for some reason skipping the second film in that trilogy by discussing City on Fire and School on Fire. While I have some experience with these kinds of films I had never explored Lam’s specific filmography nor had Josh! [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/TB_CITYONFIRE.jpeg?resize=1067%2C600&ssl=1] [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/MV5BNmQ5M2UxN2YtMGQyMi00YjliLWJmZmMtYWY5ZWFhMmNhYWRmXkEyXkFqcGc%40._V1_.jpg?resize=783%2C458&ssl=1] It was fun discussing these films but we are far from experts. If you check out the two podcasts on our network with our friend Samm Deighan, TWITCH OF THE DEATH NERVE [https://cinepunx.com/podcast-episodes/twitch-of-the-death-nerve/] and EROS + MASSACRE [https://cinepunx.com/podcast-episodes/eros-massacre/] you will find some discussion of Lam as well as references to other writers who have covered his work. This represents a beginning of our journey but one I hope we return to soon. Of course we discuss our usual WACK AND ON TRACK gimmick and other shenanigans. ALSO, are you into anime? I am just getting into it and I wanna discuss it with folks who know more than me, get at me.
