Was Wicked Better Than Nosferatu?!

Witches and vampires, oh my! Logan and Alex are back (again?!) to shove their opinions into the world, this time to discuss Wicked and Nosferatu. Watch these little Count Orloks dance through life—and several burning discussions: Does Alex automatically hate every major studio picture? Will Wicked win Best Picture at the Oscars? Does either former critic know what century Nosferatu takes place? NOPE! Wait until the end to see Logan’s stunning rendition of Defying Gravity, and comment which one is Glinda and which is Elphaba!

What's Better: The Substance Or Trap?

The race for the best movie of 2024 is on! Former Critics Logan and Alex have perhaps their spiciest debate yet over how good The Substance really is, how bad Trap really is, and whether Alex can name two actresses he likes! (Spoilers: It takes him longer than 90 seconds!!!)   They also discuss Amazon’s My Old Ass, Carved AGAIN, and Logan somehow forces The Leftovers into the conversation like always. Is there any hope for their marriage after this episode? M. Night Shyamalan, give them a job! Remember to like, comment and subscribe if you think they should give their marriage a second shot   #Trap #TheSubstance #MyOldAss #Carved #MargaretQualley #TheLeftovers #AubreyPlaza #MNightShyamalan

FORMER CRITICS x HULUWEEN

Sorry about the technical difficulties! Tried to fix it the best I could! Happy Huluween! Instead of working on their marriage, former critics Alex and Logan dove headfirst into gory, spooky, killer pumpkin-y world of Huluween. As true former critics do, they found positive things to say about all three movies. What horrors await? The dysfunctional couple checked out Carved, Abracadaver, and Mr. Crocket, all available on Hulu. Logan would have been satisfied seeing one of these in theaters—but which? Also, will Alex please STOP trying to turn this into a The Substance episode?! Happy Huluween, Tubiween, and/or Mubiween to all who celebrate!

M. Night Shyamalan, We Ranked Your Movies (Now Please Hire Us)

Instead of going to therapy, former critics Alex and Logan unfortunately decided to talk about their top and bottom M. Night Shyamalan movies. Oh boy. What fun. Does Alex know his bottom three is a bottom four? Meh. Does Logan know M. Night did NOT direct The Watchers? Sure, why not. Is M. Night’s best movie really NOT The Sixth Sense? Man, WHO CARES! This’ll go great. M. Night, get them a job!! #SixthSense #TheVillage #Trap #TheWatchers

Former critics Alex and Logan are off on a swashbuckling adventure, this time breaking down what made Pirates of the Caribbean work—and what didn’t. Are they really Disney’s last good live action movies? (4 and 5 don’t count obvi!!!) Also on the agenda: What does Alex rate Twisters, and how much does it piss Logan off? What does Logan think of Mia Goth? Which critic will clock the other’s tea first?! Comment below and share your tips on getting through the wheel fight scene without hyperventilating from excitement!

Is Longlegs Actually A Masterpiece?

Former critics and almost-birthday girls Alex and Logan wore their long legs today—and they’re ready to jump into Osgood Perkins’ new movie! Unfortunately, something about Longlegs (2024) brings out the worst of the former critics and their hot takes. Is Nicolas Cage a meme actor? Is Longlegs’ script worse than Night Swim? Is Top Gun military propaganda? Is this podcast scarier than the real movie?! #LongLegs #NicCage #OsgoodPerkins #TopGun

IS THIS THE DIRECTOR TO WATCHOUT FOR?!

Is This Director the Voice of the Millennial Generation? WHO are the voices that truly define the young millennial—old gen Z generation?! (Besides former critics Alex and Logan!) In this episode, we discuss movies that truly capture the weird time period we grew up in, including up-and-coming director Jane Schoenbrun’s first two films in her career and Rachel Sennott’s heaviest role yet. We also formally and publicly apologize to Justice Smith for our transgressions. We’re so sorry!! #ISawTheTVGlow#IUsedToBeFunny #JaneSchoenbrun#RachelSennott#JusticeSmith

The Inconsistent (And Incomplete) Cloverfield Franchise

Former critics Alex and Logan are back at it again, this time to break down the Cloverfield “franchise.” Three totally different genres, and three different levels of quality. Let’s tackle Cloverfield’s biggest mystery: What the hell is going on?! #Cloverfield#CloverfieldLane#CloverfieldParadox Here’s the video that breaks down the franchise’s ARG and answers some of the mysteries the movies never address! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SoV5lVIfjW4&ab_channel=BigBlueBackpack

WAS CIVIL WAR IMMACULATE?

The Former Critics are back—and this time, Alex doesn’t quite live up to the “former” part! See what drove Logan to QUIT at the end of this episode—too bad we didn’t have a safe word! Before that, we analyze culture’s trending arguments: Is Sydney Sweeney as good an actress as she is an entrepreneur? Is Civil War TOO apolitical—and does it rely on AI? Is Immaculate the new Gummo? Should Charlie Puth be a bigger artist? Who does Alex hate more—Timothee Chalamet, Andrew Santino, or Taylor Swift?? Also, WHY ARE MOVIES SO DARK?! WE’RE GOING CRAZY!
