Long time friends and college buddies Blake, Jose, and Brandon are back together again to sit down with a thematic meal to discuss some of their favorite (and least favorite) movies.
We’re going to Gotham to eat falafel and drink some green juice before discussing Batman Begins (2005). We enjoy watching our man Bruce become the Caped Crusader. We know that Batman is needed in Gotham, but the story is weighed down with at least five bad guys. None of them are fully developed, which leaves us wondering why they’re needed. This drags the film down a little. It’s still good and has the best Batmobile ever. Now we need to go and rid the city of some very bad men. We’re Batmen.

Ep. 194: The Odyssey (2026) - Beef Kabab, Sheep Cheeses, and Fine Wine
Your gracious hosts are eating beef kabab, assorted sheep cheeses, and drinking some fine wine before we discuss The Odyssey (2026). This must-see journey is full of what it takes to make an epic film. Fantastic story, cinematography, sound, and acting have come together to create something incredible. We swear to Athena, it’s a trip you won’t regret taking.

Ep. 193: Arrival - Squid Ink Corn Dogs
We come together this week to eat squid ink corn dogs and discuss Arrival (2016). The possible appearance of aliens leads us to debate the existence of God, while the inclusion of knowing the future leads us down a whole other rabbit hole. We agree that the film is wonderfully shot, directed, and full of meaningful ideas to contemplate, but the film’s lack of eloquent dialogue left us all a bit bewildered. For a movie about a linguistics expert communicating with aliens, that’s saying something. What that is, we still haven't deciphered.
