We’ve clearly been kidnapped by aliens and replaced with clones who are much better at watching movies, because this week we caught up on a show that’s only four years old, and watched a movie that’s still in the theater. (Then of course we watched a movie 18 years after it came out, so maybe this is the real Binary System Crew after all. OR IS IT? No, it totally is.)



First up we go over an absolutely grim episode of Station Eleven, going back in time to see how Miranda’s relationship went up in flames (literally), then jumping forward to see how the whole world went up in flames. (Figuratively. Mostly.)



After that we do a quick look at Wes Anderson’s The Phoenician Scheme, which we absolutely love but it’s hard to describe other than saying “It’s very Wes Andersony.” (The man loves him some horizontal tracking shots oh yes he does.)



Finally we rolled our eyes a little at 2007’s 28 Weeks Later: it’s got some cool explosions, some intense action, and young Jeremy Renner is very cute, but it lost the charm of the original, unfortunately. (They needed to STICK TO THE RULES. – Kathryn) (Don’t LOGIC THE PLOT, KATHRYN. – Elizabeth)
