Episodes»Legacy | | 15. September, 2015

"Don Jon" Premiere - 2013 Toronto International Film Festival

And David mentions Carol even though it's not playing there.

This week, Katey, Patches and David are in Toronto. Katey skipped a party to record, Patches has been there about a week, David has been there about three hours, but has pre-screened some awesome films and is fresh off Telluride. Da7e sits out the week because it's a late-night stream of consciousness podcast about all the movies of the next half year and which are worthwhile. Get out your notepads, it's time for the 2015 TIFF podcast! 45 Years! Anomalisa! Emma Watson! The Martian!

And will we remember them later?

David has gone to Telluride as Katey, Patches and Da7e stay behind to talk about these dregs of the summer movie season. First, this weekend sees the release of foreign horror movie Goodnight Mommy, Patches and Da7e have both seen it and want to ask Katey if a twist can actually hurt your viewing of a film. Then, Patches wants to see The Bastard Executioner unspool and will we remember the past two decades of Best Picture winners as fondly as the Oscar winners of the early years?

A podcast about Comics Pop Culture!

Hello FITWR listeners, Republic City Dispatch fanatics and Storm of Spoilers/Cast of Kings fantasy nerds, we’re back for more comics discussion!

New comics enthusiast Joanna Robinson of Vanity Fair’s Hollywood and The Station Agents podcast is joined by a guy who may have learned some facts about Daredevil Season 2 this week,  Da7e Gonzales of Geek.com,  Latino-Review.com and Forbes.com, to answer YOUR comic book questions.

No matter your level of engagement, if you’re interested in comic books and their surrounding pop culture, this show’s for you!

THIS WEEK: Joanna and Da7e took a week off to record an episode of STORM OF SPOILERS, so this week they are back and have comparatively A LOT of comics to talk about. Seriously, prepare for over 20 minutes at the top that is just about comic books. THEN, because of the Marvel brain trust shake-up and some comments by Steven Spielberg and Emma Thompson, Joanna takes the muzzle off of Da7e who gets way too into discussing how he knows more than both of those artistic geniuses. As per usual, no one is changing their opinion, but Da7e gets to yell about it.

SUBMIT YOUR QUESTIONS for the next episode here in the comments, or e-mail us at [email protected]

85 – One Day You Wake Up Old and the Best TV Adaptation Series is Behind You

And a short bit on Wes Craven's greatness

Katey is back with Da7e, Patches and David and not only did she survive her vacation, she survived the VMAs. This year's MTV Video Music Awards had Da7e feeling old and Miley Cyrus comes up. We lost Wes Craven this weekend, so everyone takes a moment to reminisce about the man who mastered horror for over three decades. Finally, NBC's Hannibal aired what was probably its series finale and Da7e who has read all the Thomas Harris books thinks the TV show might be the best adaptation ever.
