Episode 114: MICKEY 17

FROM MONKEY TO……MICKEY! NEW EPISODE PRINTED! Innovative visualist, Oscar winning Korean director Bong Joon Ho roars back with the new sci-fi satire Mickey 17, starring the glittery vampire OR Batman (depending on who you talk to) Robert Pattinson, Naomi Ackie (another WS+ notch for her), Steven Yuen, Mark Ruffalo, and Toni Collette. Fresh off the out of the box Oscar sweep for the film Parasite, Bong’s resume swings back to some of the sci fi narrative and themes tread in his other films (The Host, Snowpiercer, Okja, anyone?). BUT does this allegorical genre mashup stick the landing or does Bong’s crock pot overflow with too many ingredients? Listen as the Boys hash this out in a way that pays homage to the film’s re-print theme (and for whatever reasons, Cupcake ends up shilling and defending not one, but TWO Reese Witherspoon films in the process). GET US IN YOUR EARS!!!!For pluses, Jose talks up a pioneering re-invention of a hygiene drug store staple while Mike reviews a film (Editor’s note: Oh not another documentary?) that has more in common with Mickey 17 than just one of its actors.#podcast #newpodcast #movie #moviereview #moviereviewpodcast #film #filmisnotdead #cinematography #filmcritic #Mickey17 #bongjoonho #robertpattinson #naomiackie, #stevenyuen #markruffalo #tonicollete #timkey #patsyferran #cameronbritton #dariuskhondji #jungjaeil #bradpitt #warnerbros #planbentertainment #Offscreen #katestreetpicturecompanyTIMESTAMPS00:00:00 New Chapter00:00:59 INTRO00:03:23 Mickey 17: Below the Line00:11:53 Mickey 17: A Deep cast00:32:58 Spoiler Free Thoughts00:51:34 SPOILERS AHEAD01:13:07 Jose's Plus01:16:25 Mike's Plus01:25:11 Outro- - - - - - - - - -WE ARE WATCH SKIP PLUS!
