John, Dave and Jeff are film makers and connoisseurs who love to love movies. In this podcast we attempt to praise good movies with positive critique. Any negative criticism is fair play but warrants a drink. Each episode we look at several films, one of which is a notably ”bad” movie that we must redeem. Our livers depend on it.

"Empire of the Sun": Films of 1987 + "Mickey 17" Mini-Review
The week on the show, we welcome back our music sponsor and artist in residence, DASEIN, using John’s crap audio to discuss Spielberg’s 2nd of 4 (at least) WWII epics, “Empire of The Sun.” The random year generator spun 1987, a year we visited to discuss Bertolucci’s “The Last Emperor”, but we still gave you some set-up of what was happening around the world to add context to why in the hell two movies about empires set in China were two of the biggest movies of 1987. Dave also opens the show discussing Bong Joon Ho’s “Mickey 17” in a mini-review where he states whether this movie can hang with previous episode features “Parasite” and “Memories of Murder”.
