Doesnt hold any weight obviously but

1. WOW

2. LISTENING to all other potential candidates

I’m kind of shocked that the NYT covered this fairly mild personnel disagreement, but it does ladder up to some bigger concerns, including the Netflix agreement.

Sure sounds like him at the end of dr yorgo

Vasquez was also the foster mom in T2.

Also, Craig watching Aliens on a laptop half asleep just like James Cameron intended.

Found this very strange since Sean is usually up on his Oscars research. On the Aliens pod Sean states multiple times that Sigourney Weaver won the Oscar for Best Actress for Gorillas in the Mist in 1989.

Sigourney Weaver has (sadly) never won an Oscar. Jodi Foster won that year (her first) for The Accused. Weaver was double nominated that year: Best Actress for Gorillas and Best Supporting for Working Girl, which she lost to Geena Davis.

She did however win both categories that same year at the Golden Globes, the former in a three-way tie.

I personally would give Sigourney an Oscar every year for Achievement in Being Sigourney Weaver.

Really can’t help but want Bill, CR, and Van to run this back with how much Artificial Intelligence has progressed in the last 5 years. They touched on how eerily T2’s commentary felt predictive but man, it’s nothing compared to now.

May be a perfect opportunity to simultaneously revisit a classic and get Bill off the GPT bullshit lol.

This is VERY self explanatory...

Inspired by Jeanette Goldstein playing a Latina (very well mind you) we talk about films in which authentic portrayals of an ethnic culture were admittedly not prioritized in casting

While dishing this out Bill said he will always be Bogs from Shawshank.

I think this is true for any Gen X-er, but for millennials and younger he will always be Delahunt from The Departed.

CR pulled it out for the Dune 2 episode. I think it has a lot of room to grow

Im new here- is there a reason why they haven’t done kingdom of heaven? It seems right up the “film bro classic” that’s sort of the show’s bread and butter?

Is it on Netflix? Is there hope?

Speed was shot in Panavision, 2.39:1. Netflix presents it in a zoomed in 1.85:1 and it looks like garbage. I can’t stand when streaming services pull this shit.

Sigourney has no Oscar — shamefully —
She has never won —

Any guesses / hopes? They did this in 2024 (but not 2023 or 2025, aside from one off Halloween eps)

Also confirmed Talladega Nights next week without Bill (ringer fantasy takeover). Oh and Sean wants to do a The Master ep

Best sequels they missed mentioning in the Aliens ep!

1. Back to the Future Pt. II
2. Home Alone 2: Lost in New York
3. Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (Yeah I know it's not well loved by everyone, and has justifiably problematic elements, but it's still way better than whatever the fuck Taboo 2 is).
4. Spider-Man 2 (broke every fuckin' box office record, and is still a five star banger)

What are some of your submissions?

Edit: I'm crossing out Temple of Doom, given that it is technically not a sequel but a prequel!

Finally at last….we have the Aliens pod

Any chance?

Was the timing wrong based on Bill’s age?

Some incredible unintentional comedy in this one.
