Season 3, Ep. 1: Django Unchained

Welcome to Season 3 of Reel Poppycock, or as KC belts out in our intro: "We're back mutha-fluffers!" Season 3 opens with a three episode unit covering writer & director Quentin Tarantino, and this episode is on the 2012 *Southern* masterpiece: "Django Unchained." Ed has often said that Tarantino is one of his favorite filmmakers, but how does he feel about sweet potatoes? Yams are briefly brought up, but also how some stuff never completely changes. America has come a long way since the pre-Civil War time period depicted in Django Unchained, but if you think remnants of that bigotry has not been passed on through the generations, then you've just not been paying attention. Stars Jamie Foxx and Christoph Waltz provided dynamite performances, and receive lots of love from the Reel Poppycock crew. Ed, KC, and Trevor share some of their favorite quotes during the "Who Said It?" game, and rank the film during the Poppycock Round-Up segment. So: "Hey, Little Troublemakers," please join us for Season 3 of Reel Poppycock, and enjoy!     00:00:00 Season 3 Intro 00:04:30 Reel Basic Facts 00:33:55 Synopsis 00:39:20 Poppycock Pop-Quiz  00:50:15 Film Analysis 01:29:27 Polynesian Pearl Diver 02:05:25 Who Said It? {game} 02:11:22 Poppycock Round-Up 02:19:00 Tarantino Teaser   {credit to all respective artists for song clips used in this episode and all rights reserved} - "Django" by Luis Bacalov - "Dies Irae Be" from Verdi's Requiem - "Unchained (The Payback/Untouchable)" by James Brown and Tupac Shakur     Instagram: @reelpoppycock YouTube: Reel Poppycock  Host K.C. @dangerbrewer on Instagram  Host Ed Lanier @edlaniermusic on Instagram Host Trevor Boland (He is old, find him on Facebook)
