Boat Movie - An Exploration of 2003 Cinema

It's time to take a journey to earlier days, beloved listeners, when you could wear tracksuits to awards shows and a movie like Return of the King could win 11 Oscars. That's right, we're talking about movies from 2003 in this week's Sneople at the Movies! Your Sneople go through the top 10 box office movies of the year, talk about where they were in 2003, and bemoan that the year in question was The Last Great Year of Movies That Take Place on Boats. Since it wouldn't be a Sneople episode without LoTR takes, the three of them also take a decent amount of time discussing the history of fantasy movies and why Return of the King sweeping at the Oscars was so special. Helena and Matty also have a deep discussion on how far back in time a movie can take place before Ewan McGregor isn't believable in it, since 2002-2004 was such a powerful time for him. (The answer may surprise you!)
