Marvelous! Or, the Death of Cinema

• [TEASER] #whoreremembers

  For some people the mere mention of December 25th, 2010, or "The Day Gainax Ruined Christmas," instills fear and traumatic flashbacks to being Le Trolled. For Nicole, it was another day in dad's mancave on the family desktop computer lurking /a/.  Full bonus episode on Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt (along with full-length exclusive episodes, commentaries and more) on Patreon.

• Dick Tracy, or the Color of Pomegranates

  In our final Pulp Month outing before we return for duty back at the IP slop mines, we watched the Warren Beatty vanity/autistic-passion project Dick Tracy, yet another attempt by Disney to play catch up to Warner Bros. and Batman. A nearly $50 million black tank-top movie shot by the DP of The Bird with the Crystal Plumage where Al Pacino in heavy prosthetics eats out the scenery and Madonna blasts nip. And in our most brain damaged discussion since The Book of Henry, we delve into Beatty's attempts to hold onto the Dick Tracy rights with Dick Tracy Special and Dick Tracy Special: Tracy Zooms In. Have you considered extending your life with SP (small portions), pomegranates, and our friend the blueberry? Plus, Stu reads a Diddy ahhh selection from Madonna's Sex book that even freaked Nicole out.

• The Shadow... or "Who Knows What Zesty Thoughts Lurk in the Hearts of Men?"

• RRR, or "The British Really Were That Evil"

  We return to our 'International Blockbusters' series with a conversation about S.S. Rajamouli's breakout Telugu-language historical action romance. As complete outsiders to the world's largest and most diverse film culture, we try our level best to situate the film in a historical and cultural context, interpret it's nationalist politics, and discuss what makes India's maximalist 'Masala' blended-genre blockbusters both similiar and different from their Hollywood counterparts, and get into what makes this film so lively and engaging. Whatever we might get right or wrong, we can come away with one understanding that might unify all the world's cultures and creeds: Love for a well staged action setpiece, and hatred for the British ruling class.
