One of our favorite episodes of the year is here - where we sit down to debate the merits of the best of the Summer! It was an odd episode, overflowing with mayhem for may reasons, including (but not limited to) Carrie taking the reins as host and having the most overlap with Tim's picks for the season than ever before. How will Tim react? Well, you'll just have to tune in to find out!

Today we’re closing out dinosaur month, which was suggested by Oscar-level Patreon member Johnzilla! We’re following Carnosaur with another classic (?), the 2018 dino-ninja-Catholicism mashup THE VELOCIPASTOR!

In 1985, when the first Fletch film was released in theaters, Marcia Gay Harden was a broke NYU grad student who was still 5 years away from her breakout role in Miller's Crossing. In the subsequent 37 years, Lady Marcia Gay Harden (inside joke you'll have to listen to understand) has racked up not only over 120 film and tv credits, but an Academy and Tony Award. But, as she tells it, her proudest achievement is being a mom and as any mom will tell you, a right of passage for kids going off to college is to do a tear filled drop-off, which is exactly where Marcia was on her way to do when she hopped on to chat with me about her latest film, Confess, Fletch.
While at a layover, she dished on how she landed the role as The Countess in Confess, Fletch alongside a fun ensemble, including John Hamm (taking the mantle from Chevy Chase), Lucy Punch, Kyle MacLachlan, Lorenza Izzo and John Slattery (who reunites with his Mad Man co-star Hamm).
For those who loved the original Fletch series or just a good comedy / PI romp, be sure to watch Confess, Fletch streaming everywhere, now!
It's a bit of a hodgepodge this week here at AE - lots of feelings about movies, theaters, streaming services, return to work, X-rated film reviews and more!
We had a real gift bag in worth mentioning this week, too! Thanks to Patreon Julian DeBerry, we get to enjoy the peace and calm that comes with 1985's Soviet war film Come and See. Ann Yourell had us also exploring the debatably racist French film, The Intouchables. Lastly, let us not forget the film requested by M.C. Steffen, that had Tim wanting to quit film criticism altogether, Kirk Cameron's Saving Christmas.
Tune in!

Thanks to Oscar-level Patreon member Johnzilla, this month is all about dinosaurs! We’re kicking things off the only right way, which is to discuss the Roger Corman production CARNOSAUR, which was rushed into production to compete with Jurassic Park, complete with Laura Dern’s mom as the villain!

This episode, thanks to Patreon supporter Carl Beasley, we're taking a look at the phenomenon of the cliffhanger ending, in which a story ends on a moment of greatest tension and excitement, the better to make sure we're good and excited for the next entry. If there is another entry? Or maybe we're left mourning the unknown....
