>The upcoming novel will focus on Connie Corleone, the overlooked but pivotal daughter of Don Vito Corleone, originally portrayed by Talia Shire in all three films.

Do you believe that Nikki already had a crush on Bear before he made the wish? They set up a few things to make you doubt it, her already hooking up with the friend, and telling his other friend she "friendzoned him" but it seemed in the car like she was telling him she was sick of the situation she was in and she already felt like she had a different relationship with him. If he had enough courage to tell her he liked her when she asked him in front of the house do you think she would have reciprocated? I think it's to the movies credit that its not explicit and that if she did it makes everything that happens after the wish even more tragic.

they discussed it at length in the crouching tiger, hidden dragon episode.

griffin is a LIAR

and that’s what makes him such a good actor

I love Derek Jarman. Whilst this pod has done its best for representation, and whilst there are plenty of queer movies and quests outside of the Wachowskis, not much in terms of directors. That says more about the industry than the pod, but it got me thinking of good ones to cover. Jarman was an obsession in my teen cinephilia as his work is a fantastic history lesson in queer cinema, not just because he worked through Thatcher Britain and the aids crisis, but also his personal love for the aesthetics of the past.

Think about it, if we got Jarman, we would get baby Tilda Swinton, Sean Bean and Dexter Fletcher, lots of UK talk from David, I think Ben would be really interested in Jubilee, plus if they did it like Singleton and got as many LGBT guests as possible, it would really shine a light on his work. Plus, only the director will cover who was sainted. Very curious how Marie would feel about that

Big reasons not to cover him are obscurity, but I hope the coverage of Lynee Ramsay has kind of broken that requirement. Though, unlike her, I don't think there is a "We Need to Talk about Kevin" where if the director is obscure on all other fronts, you can say that title. His work would include the most experimental films they would cover to this point, which might also put them off covering. It's 11 films, feels like a good series

I was just listening to the commentary for Superman 4 at work and burst out laughing when they all started applauding at the sight of the American flag. I think Sims has specifically said he doesn't want the show to become How Did This Get Made but goddammit he is so funny and catty when they are watching a bad movie. I recently listened to the Look Who's Talking Now episode - "Hey, Clinton was president! Saxophone!" and "I want this entire family to die in a fire"

Just want to note that in a series which features recurring mentions of Gerard Depardieu, his antics, and Jim Carey’s Yes Man I’m yet to hear a bit about Gerard’s French language remake Oui Man.

Tho admittedly they don’t do bits, so could explain things.

They should cover Shark Tale on patreon for the Martin Scorsese series

These two are in the same basket for me. Beautiful, ambitious, very much from the same period of studios trying to get a new Gladiator/LotR, sadly failing at the box office and yes, very dadish.

He joins the previously announced cast of O'Connor, Dakota Johnson, Saoirse Ronan, Jessie Buckley and Isabella Rossellini.
