Episode 50: Oppenheimer

BOOM goes the summer movie season as the Watch/Skip'ers (who are officially 50 episodes old!) review the eagerly anticipated new Christopher Nolan, the biopic of the father of the nuclear bomb "Oppenheimer". Their extremely special guest is Kevin from the Raiders of the Podcast podcast from way across the pond (a Scotsman in England) who finally makes his WS+ debut. Put on your protective wear as this discussion goes thermonuclear analyzing, criticizing, and critiquing all facets of the film - the visuals, the narrative, the motifs and themes, and the incredible cast. Is it an underwhelming, non-linearly told history lesson or is it the next great entry in an already great filmmaker's resume? GET US IN YOUR EARS!
