We are back in 2019 with a vengeance! This week our main focus is discussing the films Vice and Aquaman, along with some tangential discussion of the Saw franchise and the development of the DC Comics cinematic universe. And we introduce the BLoW scale, which we intend to use to rate movies from now on.
But first, we lead off with a discussion of several recent news developments. These include the Golden Globes, finally canceling MoviePass, and recent changes to Regal's employee benefits. We also once again discuss the trailer for A Dog's Way Home, which continues to hound us to no end!
Vice review starts @ 00:28:30
Aquaman review starts @ 01:09:00

About Us
We're a couple of former projectionists who still enjoy practically living at the movie theater even though we don't work there anymore. We believe that movies are about the communal experience, sharing what you love and not getting too hung up on what you don't. We also believe there's no better way to share our love of movies than over a couple drinks, and we hope you'll come along for the ride!
