Dredd (2012) - A Good Feminist Film
Is it possible that 2012's Dredd is not actually about Judge Dredd?
What if it's about the battle for one woman's soul?
What if it's not a comedy? What if it's a story of one woman's battle with cancer and she must raise up her Inner Hero to fight it?
Join Michael Bolton and Mark Stratton as they watch Dredd with (much pausing for discussion).
Production Note
My apologies for the background hum. It was an an electric fireplace that basically sent its motor-hum straight up the microphone stand. I tried to noise-reduce it, but that dropped all the bottom-end out of the recording and made it sound hollow.

Joker (2019)
While this conversation between Michael Bolton and Mark Stratton is not a very in-depth analysis of Joker, it is a good juxtaposition for the previous talk about The Batman and could be a good stepping stone for a future talk about the upcoming Joker 2.

The Batman (2022)
The Batman was a movie that surprised us all. While many touted how wonderful it was to finally see Bruce Wayne/Batman do some actual detective work, Michael, Christine, and Mark were astounded to actually see Batman move beyond the loops and cycles of behaviour that he is (almost) always locked into.
The Batman should change the arc of every Batman film to follow in the future and it absolutely proves how Movies Are Mythology and how mythology needs to change with society and with time.
Join Michael Bolton, Christine Cartwright, and Mark Stratton as they discuss 2022's, The Batman.

My Dinner With Andre is a unique movie. It was produced in 1981 and is incredibly relevant to this day - perhaps because, as Michael puts it, it is the human experience expressed in a conversation.
Join Michael Bolton, Christine Cartwright, and Mark Stratton around the campfire as they discuss a fantastic film to prove that movies are about reflecting our own stories back at us.
