We are so dedicated to our craft that we went to see this one on the Big Screen and wow, it was a visual treat. This 80's cult classic has everything you could want in a film, assuming what you want is glitter. 

Let's all go to the forest

Legend- More Glitter!!

One man's quest to solve the problem of death so his wife can live forever. Despite what she actually wants. 

This movie is full of poetic imagery and asks a lot of big questions and doesn't provide all the answers. And no, it's not sci-fi just because there's a laboratory and a dude floating through space. So let's just get that straight.

The Fountain- Branches, Roots, Whatever

Greetings and welcome to our new season all about FANTASY! We are kicking it off with a film that shows us a world where men are building a new kind of world, and women...are also present. 

This movie has all the gorgeous plate armor you could ever want to see and stunning costumes that don't seem to realize they are blending a late 70's aesthetic into a medieval world. 

Join us! At this Round Table!!

**please note that there is some discussion of sexual assault in this episode because it's in the movie.

Super Mario Bros- LIVE FROM PAX EAST

The time has come. Like all things, eventually Franken-summer had to end. And so we leave you with this film- a classic coming-of-age tale about a simple girl. She's just figuring out who she is while on a bit of a murder spree to revitalize the corpse of a victorian dude that gets accidentally resurrected. We've all been there!!!

 It has to be seen to be believed, so we recommend you see it.

Lisa Frankenstein 

Welcome to 1985- the hair is big and the celebs are bigger! We've got Sting and Jennifer Beals starring in this movie that *thinks* it's a feminist retelling of the Bride of Frankenstein. Join us as we examine those merits and spend more time talking about hair and skin than clothes to be quite honest.

Frankenstein (1931)- The Face That Launched a Thousand Ships

Welcome to podcast-land, where everything is bright, colorful, molded plastic. We always have perfect outfits with matching accessories and the perfect hair style. If the choice is between a flat (gag) beige birkenstock sandal, and a pretty sparkly pink pump, it's a no-brainer. 

Thanks for joining us for season 3- The color explosion. Hope to see you in season 4. 

Bye Barbie! Bye Ken!

Barbie- The Dream Ballet 

This Korean historical drama pits the establishment and tradition against new artistic expression in clothing of the royal court. Being glamorous can elevate your social standing, it can also get you killed. But the real burning question of this movie is- how long does it take to make one of these outfits??? The human body can only move so fast.
