TFR Ep. 588: Licorice Pizza, The King’s Man, Call It!

This week on The First Run, Chris and Matt discuss the latest from the director of Chris’ favorite film of the 21st Century, PTA returns with ‘Licorice Pizza’.  A coming-of-age story in early 70’s LA. A little slice of life film that’s received some heat in the online discourse regarding the purposeful age gap of our stars.  What’s up with that?  Then its on to the latest film from Matthew Vaughn as he continues the expansion of the Kingsmen franchise with an origin story, ‘The King’s Man’.  How did the super-duper private British intelligence agency come about? And does anyone else find it weird watching M as a kick butt secret agent?  There’s the completely enrapturing rundown of the big releases on Physical Media, featuring the Streaming and Straight to DVD Picks of the Week.  Matt and Chris then close out the show with another round of ‘Call It’! Featuring Chris Hemsworth, Brian Mills, Sydney Prescott, the Blair Witch, and more!00:00-23:24: Intro/Licorice Pizza23:25-29:45: Physical Media Picks29:46-37:29: The King’s Man37:30-56:04: Call It!56:05-58:36: Wrap UpTheme music by Jamal Malachi Ford-BeyTwitterInstagramFacebook
