Beskrivelse

Whatever you think that title is about, you're wrong! I think this might be one where even a description is taking away some of the fun, just go in and be surprised, and get ready to meet the king! Things to Look For: * Unnecessary anal entry * Repetitive descriptions of the main character's genitals * A complex and heartfelt take on the difficulties of aging * Really cool fight scene with a bug * Mediocre fight scene with a cowboy mummy * Yet another rant on theater etiquette Thanks to Tom Lehrer for the use of our theme song, "Selling Out".

Ep. 16 - Billy the Kid and the Green Baize Vampire

So, tragically, this is another musical, which means that I can't include sound clips (music rights are much more strictly policed). That being said, I recommend finding the songs that we talk about as we talk about them. I mean... as THEY talk about them. I usually write these in the third person, right? Anyways, Mia and Nic are delving into the dark, depraved, downright violent world of professional snooker. If that sounds crazy, just wait until you learn what baize is! Things to look out for: * Zoot Money, baby, that's my name, don't wear it out! * Mostly mid songs, some really good ones, some really bad ones. * An unnecessarily complicated plot that also seems very simplistic? * Nic's new catchphrase Thanks to Tom Lehrer for the use of our theme song, "Selling Out".

Ep. 13 - The Myth of Fingerprints

A deceptively cozy (and unsurprisingly belated) Thanksgiving episode. A history of traumatic repression lies just under the surface of a warm, kind facade you could only find in New England... hey, just like Thanksgiving itself! What truths will come to light? What relationships will change forever? And what is this family's last name? Nobody can seem to recall, least of all our intrepid hosts. This week, we're taking a peek into one of Julianne Moore's less well-known films, The Myth of Fingerprints. The title is about as good as the movie, so take that for what you will. Things to be thankful for: * The brief threat of an incestuous scene. * Cezannes! He changed it! * Chekov's (Impotent) Gun. * There's a scene in which two characters inexplicably have an emotional conversation, while sitting on the middle of a frozen lake. Somehow, Mia and Nic failed to mention this, and failed to make a reference to that line from The Dead Zone that they love so much. * Mustard, and its many ineffable qualities.
