The two discuss the atmosphere of a realized world, experiences soaked in nostalgia, and the painful beauty in growing up. Topics:(PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 25-minutes of discussing SDCC 2024 with Joe, who was at the convention, about what the experience was like, what were his highlights, and the general vibe around the Robert Downey Jr./Dr. Doom announcement in a post-Marvel fatigue world. (PATREON EXCLUSIVE)Joe shares about being “pushed” into podcasting, how he’s innovated on his podcast format, and his favorite episode (which you can listen to here!).Joe, “In my opinion, outside of The Godfather and Apocalypse Now, [The Outsiders] is one of his best films.”Melvin watched the film but felt like he didn’t pick up everything he wanted. But, no worries, because he liked it so much that he just watched it again the following day.There are constant little moments where characters allude to a newfound awareness of their age, or how things have changed.The movie is gentle in depicting what are literal social outsiders; people most wouldn’t even bother to observe or respond to.At least in the director’s cut (The Outsiders: The Complete Novel) there are tons of licensed tracks, specifically from Elvis Presley.There are many times when one of the boys is so overwhelmed with emotion that they run away from a situation.Discussing the ending, both the theatrical cut and the director’s cut.Recommendations:Cine-ful Cuts (Podcast)Ouch, Was That a Ghost?
