The episode in which I delay going to the emergency room to record a show about the final Star Wars trailer, The Hateful Eight being longer on 70mm, Jennifer Lawrence’s essay about the pay wage gap, HBO’s show about feminism in the 60s, a Die Hard “pre-boot,” a ton of comic book adaptations on TV, War Games going interactive, and more Lego Batman news. Plus discussion about The Uninvited, To the Wonder, Red Oaks, Unfriended, The Final Girls, and It Follows.

Debt to Cinema 003: All That Jazz
For reasons that escape me currently I decided to go against the grain and select something outside of the horror genre this week. I wanted something that neither of us had seen. Sometimes you get more than you bargained for.
Two Cents 015: I Kick Ass for the Lord!
The episode in which we discuss where huge franchises are going, Steven Soderbergh’s next project having interactive narrative paths, Tarantino recording movies on VHS, Taika Waititi being tapped to direct Thor: Ragnarok, Phil Lord and Chris Miller adapting Serial, the next wave of films being transported to the small screen, planes offering “free” movie streaming, and Amazon bullying Google and Apple to support Prime Instant Video. Plus we discuss The Iron Giant, Creep, Baghead, and Peter Jackson’s Braindead (aka Dead Alive).
Two Cents 014: Saturday Night Special
The episode in which Steve had plans so we recorded a day early. Topics discussed include Bill Finger, Furious 8’s director woes, Fox adapting Agatha Christie, the Oculus VR press conference, Mubi’s rise from obscurity after snagging a Paul Thomas Anderson exclusive, Ridley Scott’s proposed Prometheus title.
Plus we talk about The Babadook, Limitless, its TV adaptation, and some pilots (Minority Report, The Muppets, Scream Queens).
Debt to Cinema 001: High Noon
The first episode in our new show that is dedicated to reviewing films either one or the both of us has never seen.
This week we are crossing off a quintessential classic from Steve’s list of shame, the real time Western that defies genre.
Two Cents 011: Add It to the List
The episode in which we mention some upcoming biopics, rumors for Apple’s latest event, Hulu finally giving you a way to remove adds, the importance of the commercial break, Force Friday, Sony’s bad luck, and if they can turn it around by finally making the great videogame adaptation.
Two Cents 010: I’ll See You in My Nightmares
The episode in which we mourn the recent passing of Wes Craven, the future of the Alien film universe, our reactions to fan service, movies being adapted to TV, IMAX releases, the next mega blockbuster, how the internet reacts to them post-release, and the interactive movie/choose your own adventure video games out there.
Two Cents 009: The End of Summer
The episode in which we talk about even more adaptations, watching movies on Apple tech, mononyms, the dream of a Disneyland attraction shared universe event, and cinema breakthroughs being tied to controversial stories.
We basically review Sinister 2 and The End of The Tour as well, which leads to us looking toward the future of our careers.
Two Cents 008: Give a Dog a Bone
The episode in which Steve introduces the show because he isn’t happy about a text message exchange, the many faces of Batman, Star Wars invading Disney Parks, and the passing of a great picture dog.
Two Cents 007: Bond, Corporate Bonds
The episode in which we talk about Sony’s release date calendar, their upcoming 4K Blu-ray tech, PEZ candy/product adaptions, February release dates, and Fantastic Four, because its hard to ignore how much the world hates it.
