Join hosts Nick & Erin as they discuss a movie-of-the-week and then each pick a 2nd film to create a thematically spicy double bill. Their goal: to pair art with trash and vice versa. Because after all, one person's E.T.: The Extraterrestrial is another person's Mac & Me.

Week 3 of GDT in the GTA would like to offer you an egg in this trying time. It's the awards-darling moment of Guillermo Del Toro's career, and vindication for monsterf*ckers everywhere: 2017's THE SHAPE OF WATER!
We're charting Del Toro's journey from the giant canvas of PACIFIC RIM to the intimately-scaled WATER, the original Creature from the Black Lagoon, and how you create a movie as a terrarium for a fishman.
Naturally, we're praising all the performances--from Sally Hawkins' confidence to MIchael Shannon's incuriousity, Octavia Spencer's jokes to Michael Stuhlbarg's stuffed shirt, and Richard Jenkins' desparation to Doug Jones' toreador energy--but we're also discussing how consumerism of the 60's intersects with our antagonists, and how 'otherness' is portrayed by our heroes.
Plus, we're playing ROOMMATE, TINDER DATE, OR BLOCK with classic monsters!
Next time we wrap up our mini-series with GUILLERMO DEL TORO'S PINOCCHIO.
