On this episode, Fake Film Fans focuses on "Femmes Femmes (aka Women Women)", a French New Wave musical film directed by Paul Vecchiali released in 1974. The film stars Hélène Surgère and Sonia Saviange. The film is about two actresses who are past their acting prime and turn to alcohol to get through their life. (00:02:14) Firstly, a small conversation on incel music and sex music. (00:10:01) Fake Films Fans hasn't discussed a non-English movie in a while so Walter is on withdrawal and he needs to be pretentious for this introduction. (00:23:09) Swade feels "Femmes Femmes" is a very honest film and explains what he means by that. (00:47:14) Walter wants to know why Swade didn't like the humorous parts of "Femmes Femmes" but Swade disagrees that the film is funny at all and they get into a big argument about it. (00:59:16) Swade shares an anecdote about using woman and women and Walter expresses how much he loves the dance and music in "Femmes Femmes". (01:11:30) Bunch of shoutouts to make this episode! Thank you everyone who is sending us messages and comments. Much love!

On this episode, Fake Film Fans focuses on "The Stuff", an American film directed by Larry Cohen released in 1985. The film is a Cohen classic that depicts a white stuff but is also a satire on the way the American FDA and other similar organizations market things to society and create fads. Walter has talked about the microcinema in New York City called The Spectacle and one of his old colleague Erin joins the show! (00:02:54) "The Stuff" is a pretty grotesque movie but everyone has different opinions about who the real villain is; yet everyone does appreciate the same scenes! (00:41:01) Everyone discusses overeating and their favorites types of foods. (58:00) As a food episode, people share other ideas about food in films. (01:21:44) For the last part, there a bunch of shoutouts necessary as many people have commented. Maybe Swade's bookmarks are working?

On this episode, Fake Film Fans focuses on "Death Note", the 2017 American adaption of the hit manga series directed by Adam Wingard . Famous for being a terrible adaption, this episode focuses on why its fun and also why its a bad film. This is the first time we have two guests, both Erin and Jamie are sisters who bring that sisterly bond to this episode. (00:03:15) Swade wants to talk about Jamie's Naruto fanfiction again and it leads to a conversation about clenching assholes and DNA. (00:20:01) Erin is a huge fan of "Death Note" and everyone shares why they like the film and the manga. Swade does not enjoy Light as a character and that makes people upset on the podcast. (00:39:20) Most people think the film has a lot of love put into it and is a great representation of camp except Walter who chooses to be annoyingly combative about it.(01:01:46) Erin wishes there were funko pops of this film and everyone shares alternative versions of the death note with one another. (01:12:54) If you enjoyed this episode, please listen to the end and support these great guests who support the podcast all the time!

On this episode, Fake Film Fans focuses on "Skinamarink", an anthology horror film directed by Kyle Edward Ball. The film is about two children who wake up to a house where their parents are completely gone and is filmed in an anthology horror style in mostly darkness. (00:07:03) Swade's friend Terry the Trailer Man wants to come onto the podcast to talk about the new trailer of "The Boogeyman", an upcoming film that is an adaption of Stephen King's famous short story. To Fake Film Fans surprise, Terry just came back from fighting in Ukraine which opens up a can of worms with many discussion about vets, Pat Tillman and the Superbowl. (00:29:47) Swade flexes his knowledge about horror and shows how "Skinamarink" tackles liminal space horror and nostalgia horror. (00:45:49) Walter doesn't relate to any of these horrors which gives a good opportunity for Swade and Walter to analyze their childhood fears and their differences. (01:01:16) After referencing his childhood physical abuse, Walter had to dissect it a little in the end and joke about it. Asians, right? (01:10:44) This episode ends with Swade trying to do his shoutouts of people he can't even remember their names. I mean, are these people even real?

On this episode, Fake Film Fans focuses on "M3GAN", a horror film directed by Gerard Johnstone. The film is about a robot doll who starts acting as a parent to an orphan and decides to protect her by killing anything that threatens to endanger her. (00:04:11) Swade and Walter discuss what types of snacks they'd like to bring to a movie theater that aren't served in a movie's concession stands. Since both of them do not think like normal humans, they don't really bring snacks that are edible. (00:24:07) Swade and Walter realize the film has a lot of different themes about parenting, technology and love. (00:45:43) Swade thinks "M3GAN's" ability to make you question when killing can be justified is fascinating but Walter is unimpressed. (00:55:41) It turns out, while both Swade and Walter understand "M3GAN's" is critiquing parenting, they have very different ideas of what is being critiqued. (01:13:22) Fake Film Fans got some really touching comments for this episode and Swade once again proves he's a bad friend.

On this episode, Fake Film Fans focuses on Heinosuke Gosho's <五所平之助> "An Inn at Osaka <大阪の宿>", a Japanese post-war film about Mita, a man who loses his job and moves to an inn in Osaka. There, he meets a befriends different women who struggle through the changing society of Japan. (00:01:09) Biology talk makes Swade excited because he finally found out that arteries and veins are different. (00:06:44) Walter recently saw Ken Russell's "Altered States", which is a film where a man goes on many drug trips. Walter compares the trips in the film to his own experiences. (00:16:24) The episode takes a look at how each individual woman represents different attitudes towards the changing Japan and how the film feels pro-human because all the characters have to keep moving forward despite the odds. (00:35:20) Walter sees a lot of his wealthier class identity in Mita but Swade refuses to let Mita and Walter be the bad guys. (00:57:11) Walter tries to compare World War II with the American Civil War but gets shut down immediately. To respond, Swade talks about his escapades with cheating women. (01:16:45) Swade boasts his skill of socializing with strangers even though he can't travel well. (01:26:15) Finally, a quick update on the better progress of Swade's dad and we find out why he just learned about the arteries and veins thing.

UPDATE: Surgery was successful! Swade's incredibly thankful for everyone who has donated and helped his family through this difficult and weird period. Without his permission, Fake Film Fans wants to leave the Gofundme link for one more week because even though the medical bills have been covered, the family will still have to go through a period of time where Swade's dad can't be working which is going to cause a heavy financial strain.
On this episode, Fake Film Fans tries to discuss "I Bought a Vampire Motorcycle", a UK horror comedy film directed by Dirk Campbell. The film tells a story about a killer vampire motorcycle with an expected amount of hot quality biker outfitted men. (00:03:07) Walter watched Ruben Östlund's new Palme d'Or winning film "Triangle of Sadness" and is unsurprisingly completely head over heels for the vomiting scene. (00:11:57) There are a lot of wild scenes in "I Bought a Vampire Motorcycle" and Fake Film Fans share their favorite scenes. (00:21:28) Thoughts on garlic develop into a conversation about inappropriate public smells again. (00:33:14) A conversation about motorcycles develops into a sports manga conversation. (00:49:14) And suddenly, the podcast has finished and we realize we actually hardly talked about "I Bought a Vampire Motorcycle".

Starting this podcast with a bit of a sad note. Swade's dad's brain cancer has unfortunately regrown and that is predictably going to become quite a large financial burden on his family. We linked the gofundme above and if you are interested in helping out anyway you can, check it out. If you can't, consider sharing the link and in general, just keep Swade's family in your thoughts. They all greatly appreciate it.
On this episode, Fake Film Fans talks about the popular teen drama comedy "She's the Man" starring Amanda Bynes and Channing Tatum but Walter struggles to pronounce names hence the title. The film is about a female highschool student who pretends to be a boy and enters a boarding school because they want to join the boy's soccer team. (00:04:51) Since Swade had to take a break, he wants to do his Christmas episode and prevents Walter from talking about a movie for the opener. (00:12:00) Swade likes this film and explains why it feels different compared to other romantic comedies. (00:32:24) Swade and Walter disagree with how the acting and presentation of the characters work. (00:45:41) Fake Film Fans also becomes Man Stuff Podcast for a bit as Swade and Walter talk about everyone's favorite topic - their own toxic masculinity. (01:05:41) Swade ends the podcast with the news of his dad's cancer, so listen to this if you want to more about it and how you can help out.

Merry Christmas! Swade is out on medical leave so this episode is Fake Film Fans first solo episode with Walter. Not good. (00:02:30) However, Walter does his best to replicate a good Christmas episode by staying as positive as he can, which is not very positive at all. (00:14:19) Next, Walter plays a small Christmas game about movies that was meant for 2 people but he tries. (00:20:12) Walter talks about William Basinski's "Disintergration Loops 1.1", which is both a film and music project dedicated to 9/11 and expresses how much fun he had watching it because of the smoke which he confuses with clouds throughout the episode. (00:28:28) Walter dives deep into how much fun he had with cloud watching in the film, (00:36:48) and then defends why watching clouds in this film is different then watching clouds in nature or outside. (00:45:18) Ending with some begging, let's get 5 ratings on either Spotify or Apple Podcasts before January 1rst so we can listen to Walter gurgle water in his mouth on the next episode!

Maddie, Swade's friends who he met while she was homeless, joins us to talk about "Dancer in the Dark". "Dancer in the Dark" is a musical drama directed by Lars Von Trier and released in 2000. Selma, played by Bjork, is a woman suffering from a degenerative eye condition and wants to prevent her son from going through the same disease but she lives in a world that is very cruel. (00:03:16) Maddie is actually one of the biggest fans of the podcast and interacts with us and we ask her about it.(00:17:50) "Dancer in the Dark" was distressing to watch and it was juxtaposed with incredibly interesting musical numbers that everyone loved. (00:30:06) Swade loves the ending scene because as a narrative, it shows an idea of death that hits hard but that conversation devolves into Walter freaking out about vomit. (00:46:34) Swade thinks Lars Von Trier has no sympathy for Selma as a character and discusses the harassment that happened between them. (01:06:01) Swade wants to talk about the Bjork stalker but Walter wants to talk about Bjork and they fight. (01:17:14) Finally, Swade can't help and gets excited about Christmas which annoys everyone on the podcast.

This episode focuses on the film "Whale Rider" directed by Niki Caro and released in 2002. "Whale Rider" is a New Zealand film about a Māori girl who wants to become the chief of the tribe. (00:06:52) Walter prepares a multiple choice game for Swade to play related to the dinner interruptions in Luis Buñuel's " The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie" which you can play too.(00:20:13) After Swade finishes introducing "Whale Rider", Swade shares how the film scared him as a child which Walter does not relate to. Both of them discuss how childhood fears or the lack of built their character as they grew up. (00:40:10) Walter feels "Whale Rider" is a very clean film and that makes it hard for the film to answer its big question but Swade thinks Walter is being an armchair philosopher.(01:06:10) Swade feels the main character from "Whale Rider" reminds him of Yotusba from the manga "Yotsubato!" and thinks the film is a great example of why slice of life is comfortable to him. (01:17:17) Walter wants to clarify about Swade's disgusts with whales and it leads to a more Twitter shenanigans.

This episode focuses on the Hydrozagadka (aka Hydro-Riddle); a polish film directed by Andrzej Kondratiuk and released in 1971 . (00:03:17) First, Walter talks about The Guns, the 1964 Brazilian film directed by Ruy Guerra. Since the film uses pseudo documentary techniques, Fake Film Fans shares how they usually take pictures of strangers and whether that is intrusive. (00:21:58) Hydrozagadka's satire is nuanced because it doesn't exactly make fun of normal Western superhero films. (00:43:42) Swade gets focused and lectures Walter on the science of comedy. (00:58:36) Finally, Swade and Walter share their favorite jokes in Hydrozagadka and get into talking about villain sidekick animals.

This episode focuses on the new Hellraiser remaster and franchise. (00:07:08) Walter has always known Swade is one of the biggest Hellraiser fans but he doesn't actually know the history of how it came to be. (00:29:10) While Swade loved the remaster, he struggled with the film because it was a Hellraiser movie. Swade and Walter discuss the benefits and issues with being tied to a franchise. (00:43:20) Swade feels the Cenobites in the Hellraiser remaster are very different because they aren't like sex objects anymore but Walter feels it has more to do with a lack of concept of "Meat". (01:08:53) Swade feels the characters in Hellraiser remind him of a toxic fried ship he once had and they also talk about which Cenobite they think is the most attractive one.

This episode focuses on Ken Russell's "The Devils" released in 1971 . On this episode, we are joined by Celine. (00:02:36) Continuing this new introduction, Walter talks a little bit about Louise Brooks in her famous film "Pandora's Box" directed by G. W. Pabst. However, Celine and Swade can't stop being boy crazy and this continues through the whole episode. (00:14:50) Swade some facts he thinks are interesting about "The Devils" and the film's controversy. (00:35:14) Next, a discussion about how people find priests hot devolves into a conversation about fatness and social constructs. (00:41:20) Walter goes crazy about the sex in this film which grosses out the others. Celine and Swade change the topic and discuss which characters in "The Devils" are sympathetic especially since the film is filled with an idea of sin. (01:05:49) Swade's love for horror makes him question why this film doesn't feel like a horror film and everyone is curious about how the horror of sexual desires and imagination. (01:22:05) A shout out to some of Fake Film Fans favorite listeners and we laugh at Celine's twitter.

This episode focuses on Jacques Becker's "Le Trou (The Hole)". (00:01:01) We try a new segment where Walter shares the most pretentious film he watched since the last episode. In this episode, Walter talks about "Mr. Thank You (有りがたうさん, Arigatō-san)" directed by Hiroshi Shimizu. Walter feels that this film shows how bus trips can look existential and also talks about his experience with the amount of greetings people give in USA compared to Hong Kong. (00:17:07) Swade and Walter discuss how different "Le Trou" develops its characters because despite little to no background, the film manages to give the characters personality. (00:35:14) Walter tries to explain why the tedious nature of "Le Trou" is interesting but Swade thinks it prevents him from liking the film. (00:59:23) Walter believes the way objects are filmed in "Le Trou" is parallel to a pessimistic look at humans working in a group. (01:19:40) And Fake Film Fans as hit a few milestones with 1,000 total plays!

A different opening to remember Jean-Luc Godard and how he influences so many people who love film. (00:17:18) Traveling has worn Walter down and he refuses to start the podcast normally which makes Swade very annoyed. (00:29:23) Walter finally starts sharing his experience with Whitney Houston in "The Bodyguard", a film he watched recently. (00:41:23) Next, Swade doesn't understand why "A Christmas Prince" has so many stupid cliches and Walter tries to guide him through them. (00:56:06) Walter and Swade also discuss Rose McIver and complain about Christmas movies. (01:11:56) Swade talks about Navin Avenue, a band that passed by his bookstore and Fake Film Fans receive their first email!

Week late episode due to traveling hardships which stop Walter from being a human being. This episode focuses on CW's "Supergirl" but also discusses Hisayasu Satō's "Muscle". This episode begins in chaos as Swade and Walter fail to record an episode on time even though Walter visited Swade in Roanoke. (00:06:34) Next, Walter tries to talk about Hisayasu Satō's "Muscle" but constantly gets distracted. (00:42:37) Swade really wants to talk about CW's "Supergirl" because he forced Walter to watch it during their time in Roanoke. (00:50:21) Swade thinks "Supergirl" doesn't deliver its social justice themes well and wants to talk about it but Walter doesn't think that conversation is very interesting. (55:36) Swade and Walter talk about how frogs are used in "Frogs" because its rather unique as they aren't really the monster in the film. (01:07:43) Swade thinks Walter misrepresents him when he talks about his possibility of winning against a crocodile but Walter still thinks its related to toxic masculinity.

Walter is on a USA trip but that doesn't stop the podcast! This episode discusses George McCowan's eco-horror film "Frogs" released in 1972. Before we start, Walter wants to clarify why talking about sex is very different then talking about muscles but Swade continues to fight back and disagree. (00:05:27) Walter tries to talk about the films he watched again but Swade just wants to talk about his Spiderman game. Some of the films talked about are more Marvel, Alfred Hitchcock's "Dial M for Murder", Martin Scorsese's Casino and the viking epic by Robert Eggers called "The Northman". Walter also talks about his experience at Vancouver's Cinematheque when he tried to go to a screening of two shorts by Straub–Huillet. (00:21:30) Getting into frogs, both Swade and Walter share their opinions on eco-horror itself. (00:31:30) Next, we talk about how much we love frogs. As pets and as food. (00:45:05) Some weird sponsored horoscope church came our way and Swade really wanted to put it into the podcast. (55:36) Swade and Walter talk about how frogs are used in "Frogs" because its rather unique as they aren't really the monster in the film. (01:04:58) Finally, Fake Film Fans talks a little bit about the other characters - the humans. (01:21:11) This episode ends with a little bit of a tribute to the graduated Vtuber Sana

This episode discusses Derek Jarman’s "Blue". Swade wants to sexualize armpits and talk about pink washing. (00:07:30) Walter wants the podcast to be more focused on films so he talks a little bit about some of the movies he watched this week. The films are “The Third Man” directed by Carol Reed and “Demons” by Toshio Matsumoto. Swade doesn’t choose to help though.(00:16:32) Instead, Swade wants to share about his broken car. (00:29:55) Swade does some research and shares some facts on what AIDS is. (00:43:09) Then, Swade and Walter dive a bit deeper into quotes from "Blue" and how uses fantasy and metaphors and also strongly confronts normative narratives about AIDS. (01:02:32) Walter thinks "Blue" is a very good film example of necropolitics which leads to a introspective conversation about dying and death. (01:16:49) Walter thinks the way Jarman uses blue and experiments blue shows how limits and agency run parallel to each other. He uses the filmmaking, time and life as examples of this. (01:30:50) Finally, Swade wants to show off his muscles once again unrelated to anything but it does remind Walter about a film called "Muscle" directed by Hisayasu Sato

Joined by Jonah in this episode - who not just has the same name as Swade but also was always destined to be Swade's bestie. Jonah lives in the middle of nowhere and explains his lifestyle to us. (00:05:06) Walter is hungover today so the introduction changes between different conversations like cultural appropriation and Mario's cucking fetish. (00:14:30) After a little bit of an awkward start, Fake Film Fans discusses the Korean film "Space Sweepers" which is directed by Jo Sung-hee. We explore the wide array of characters in the film and they symbols they present. Swade also cried to the ending of this film which Walter brushes off rudely. (00:30:15) "Space Sweepers" reminds Walter of the manga "Planetes" because they are both about space janitors. Jonah thinks Space Sweepers is super similar anime in general but Walter and Swade disagree. (00:48:15) Walter feels the marketing of "Space Sweepers" as a blockbuster is interesting because the term blockbuster feels Western. However, it seems that "Space Sweepers" does challenge the Western world in its own way. (00:59:57) Finally, Jonah shares a bit about his business of book binding so you should definitely support it!
