RBR #145: “A.I.: Upgrade Your Son Today”
For this installment in our Steven Spielberg series, we unpack A.I. — the feel-good family story about replacing your dead child with an upgraded model. We’re talking abandoned robot children, existential loneliness, uncanny smiles, fairy tale symbolism, and why this movie somehow feels like both a warm hug and a psychological evaluation. Also: the tonal whiplash of watching a sweet robot boy wander through a world that absolutely deserves several lawsuits. It’s sentimental. It’s disturbing. It’s beautiful. It’s two filmmaking legends stitched together like cinematic Frankenstein. Some assembly required. ----more---- Thank you so much for listening!

RBR #144: “Minority Report: Pre-Crime & Punishment”
In Minority Report, people are judged before they act—which hits a little close to home, because we definitely formed strong opinions early and spent the rest of the episode trying to justify them. Join us for the latest installment in our Steven Spielberg series as we wrestle with pre-crime, free will, and a movie that’s clearly operating on a higher level than we are. The system isn’t broken… we just keep getting flagged. ----more---- Thank you so much for listening! Please help us spread the word by leaving us a 5-star review!
