ASE Christmas Special 2025 - Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer

Always Scale Everything

4/20 is basically April Fool's anyway. You're a damn fool if you smoke that CRAP! Anthony and Sean finally devote a full episode to powerscaling, which is technically a form of literary analysis and therefore technically an academic exercise. Join us as we analyze these characters in EXACTLY the way their artists intended them!

Santa Succession: 226-227, 1250

The world of Christmas is vast and diverse. It can happen to anyone, anywhere, at any time. Even a mouse can have Christmas. It can happen in March. Who cares? You got other stuff to worry about, Connor. The dark and forbidden corners of the earth are exhumed through the grimy mysticism of Onibaba and the Gothic mystery of Le Corbeau. Crossing Delancey offsets them with the confection-sweet simplicity of love and sincerity, but it's not as cool to me, Sean, because I like weird and scary stuff. Like Christmas. Happy Halloween!!

Halloween in January - 225, 223, 1156

Listener beware...you're in for a chill... ^pretty good^ From the resplendent Scottish highlands, to the depths of a horny French basement, to the dark aftermath of a Guatemala torn apart by tyranny, our purview is stretched wide-open this week to all the cinema of the world! Our purview is STUFFED with these mature adult dramas exploring the kalediscopic expressions of human pain-the bombast and pride of a warrior with no battles left to fight, the infatuations of The Frenchman with Forbidden Fruit, and the scariness of Ghosts to a family who may or may not have done some bad stuff. It happens frequently that we stumble on a movie that depicts just how insanely done dirty Central and South America has been. Sorry about that, guys. Happy Halloween??

Diary of a Wimpy Podcast: 219, 222, 853

Giulietta Masina died four years before I was born but she is the only one who understands my pain. She is an angel of the gentlest character and an artist beyond peer. She should be in every movie at least twice. We need to do Clone High to bring her back so she can be a 15 second cameo in a Safdie move. Diary of a Country Priest is like petting a feeble old cat for the last time.

ASE Christmas Special 2025 - Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer

On this year's special Christmas episode Anthony, Sean, and Tyler watch the classic(?) holiday special based on a song people don't really like that much. Does Santa secretly keep all your deceased relatives at the North Pole? What was in that vile of random junk anyway? What are the geopolitical issues facing Whoville?
