Two Cents 079: The End of an Era

The week in which Obamacare is dying, LA continues to get sports teams, the circus will never come to town again, Amazon introduces its own Anime Prime Channel, Cannes is admitting TV (just as The Coen Brothers jump in), and Infinity War and DC get more enlisters. Meanwhile, I share my addiction to Games Done Quick, finally beat Resident Evil 6, and caught the first episode of Netflix’s Series of Unfortunate Events; while Steve saw the remake of The Blob, Scorcese’s Silence, and Patriot’s Day. Plus, TwitchCon, Sony Pictures’s CEO jumping to Snap Inc., Nintendo Switch, Youtube, George Lucas $1 Billion museum, and Starcade getting a “retro-boot.”

Dollar Reviews 018: Everybody Wants Some!!/Knight of Cups

Steve and I caught two massively different indie flicks from auteurs miles apart for your listening pleasure this week. The first of which is a throwback to what made Richard Linklater famous, while the second is another step down the rabbit hole for Terrence Malick (16:30). Plus Steve gives his take on Too Late (28:37), Hush (34:43), and Eye in the Sky (37:57) while I dish on Supergirl’s crossover with The Flash (41:50).
