David and Patches are in Park City, Utah

This week, another Sundance Film Festival has Patches and David off in the snowy mountains, watching a ton of movies most of us won’t get to see for months. As per usual, we have a dispatch from the festival as the main segment on this episode. Meanwhile, back in the rest of the world, Katey and Da7e talk about the Academy’s new attempts to diversify in the face of racial backlash and Da7e will attempt to communicate how excited he is about The X-Files.

Should the Oscars Be in January?

This week, Katey, Da7e, and Patches are subject to a brisk Ehrlich discussion about Sundance and what it all means. first, a tidbit about the festival and it’s changing perception. Is the old promise of Sundance preserved in virtual reality filmmaking and Sundance Next? Then, a brief interlude to discuss if the Oscars should be in January, because David can’t believe we’re talking about stuff like American Sniper still after Sundance. Then, David saw Jupiter Ascending at Sundance, and he can’t review it, but wants to talk about how original science fiction films might be doomed.

True Detective, American Horror Story, The Grammys – Important Doings On The Tube

This week, Katey, Patches, David and Da7e are all back in one time-zone and I, Frankenstein is still in theaters, so it’s time to turn our attention to the other glowing rectangle in our lives…our laptop screens. Ok, the 3rd Most Important Glowing Rectangle in our lives, the television. Katey and Patches watched The Grammys and Katey wants to know if the variety of performances made it a live event worth watching, Patches wraps up his Sundance 2014 coverage under heavy questioning from David and all 4 dig into the blurring line between film storytelling and television storytelling by touching on HBOs True Detective (spoiler free!).

Oh, and that SCREEN BITES review of Sherlock Series 3 episode 2 that Da7e is on? THAT’S RIGHT HERE.

With a Special SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL Update from Matt Patches and Jordan Hoffman!

This week, it’s a Frankenstein episode in the sense that Katey, David and Da7e assemble in chilly New York City to discuss the feminism of Beyoncé Knowles’ December album release and answer a listener voicemail about why so many film reviews choose to not be overwhelmingly negative or glaringly positive. Finally, the torso of the show has been stitched onto the legs in the form of a third segment with Matt Patches reporting from Park City Utah where he and recurring guest Jordan Hoffman have the scoop on this year’s festival so far.

Oh, and that SCREEN BITES review of Sherlock Series 3 episode 1 that Da7e mentions? THAT’S RIGHT HERE.
