   Se7en

   We watch Se7en and ask... Does Se7en prove that ordinary people are more terrifying than anything supernatural? Is John Does scarier because he feels profoundly human? Does the film's bleak world view tip into misery for misery’s sake? Does Se7en work better when defined as horror rather than a thriller?

   Hot Shots : Part Deux

   We watch Hot Shots : Part Deux and ask... Does Hot Shots prove that parody deserves more respect? Does the parody still work if the audience haven't seen the references? Are the visual gags stronger than the dialogue? Does the film still work for a first time viewer in 2026?
