Episode 204: Can't miss movies of 2022

from Adventures in Movies! · host Regina Chavez, Blake Heath/Nathaniel Muir

For many, M. Night Shyamalan lost any goodwill built from his early career a long time ago. We talk about his latest movie and how even though it has an intriguing trailer and awesome poster, it is not enough to bring in some people. This leads to a talk of the awful ending of Old (SPOILER WARNING) and why Knock at the Cabin is destined for the same fate.Another director whose career has been spent polarizing audiences is James Cameron. We discuss the shocking success of Avatar: The Way of the Water (we know, it should not be a surprise) and why it bothers us. Will we finally break down and watch the three hour spectacle?Dinner in America  began its festival run two years ago. At the time, it was meant with critical praise. Audiences also loved the story about two outsiders who meet each other. Despite the all around goodwill, the indie film did not find a streaming home or get a theatrical release.Until this year. But why do we think you should check it out? Set in Midwest America in the 1990s, the movie is about a punk rocker who meets a socially awkward girl. Things start off rocky until the two inevitably find they have a lot more in common than they thought. It is entirely predictable, but two of the most lovable characters of  the year make this a must watch.The Menu is one of the darkest, funniest, and best acted films of the year. It targets a niche crowd, but has been able to surpass expectations thanks to strong word of mouth. We talk about its great story and atmosphere, its use of its ensemble cast, and its in your face writings.Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network.
