Why Wasn't It Better?

You could call this a Worst Best Picture winner. You shouldn't, but some actually do. The Coen Brothers' adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's No Country for Old Men became an instant classic upon release in 2007, winning four Academy Awards and all the critical praise. We wanted to cover it because we love it so much. Guest Peter Baldeo is here to talk about it.

Hercules was Disney's aggressively stylized, gospel-infused, pop-myth remix of the Greek legend. It also under-performed in the eyes of the studio and is often seen as one of the lesser entries in the Renaissance. Like any Disney movie, it has its fans, but why isn't it better remembered? Guest Adam Hecht returns to weigh in.

The first Guardians was a surprise hit for Marvel. Funny, fresh, and full of heart. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is a cosmic sequel where the jokes are louder, the colors are brighter, and the daddy issues are turned up to eleven. Guests Ivan Calixto and Garret Ohringer join the pod to discuss this space adventure.
