108 – Do horror movies have to be really scary?
Plus The Mermaid and a segment called “Alex Proyas: Good Director?”
Katey has disappeared to prepare for Oscar coverage, so Da7e, Patches and David strike up another Brocast. First, With Gods of Egypt coming to theaters this week, Patches wants to ask: “Alex Proyas: good director?” Then, David catches Patches and Da7e up on China’s newest theatrical sensation The Mermaid. Finally, the trio talk about some of the backlash recently against The Witch (which we discussed last episode) and debate the semantics of “scary” when it comes to horror film.

107 – Opinions from people some sarcastically call “Journalists”
The Witch, Deadpool’s success, and a Listener-prompted segment!
Absent a Patches, Katey, Da7e and enemy of Fox news David Ehrlich are free to hear David’s thoughts on A24’s first wide release The Witch that comes out this Friday and discuss with Da7e how Deadpool could have become such a massive financial hit. Then, a comment on the Fighting In the War Room website requests the gang review what it’s like to try and be a critic these days, which leads to much reminiscing about how the three hosts got here in the first place.
