ThePoeticCritic Mega Pod: Scorsese/Disney/Vampire Cinematic Salad

CatBusRuss gets himself ready for the five hours of driving to and from C2E2 by playing back a pair of conversations with his travel companion, ThePoeticCritic. These discussions are where the two siblings have to come to terms with how they may now be the biggest cinema snobs in Central Illinois. Our host was a little more resistant in fully embracing that Martin Scorsese is right to bash the negative effects that the Marvel Cinematic Universe has had on creativity in Hollywood, but once his big sister informed of him of the Disney Drones' disdain for Seventies auteurs, he knows what side to stand on. This sounds like a dyer podcast, but it allows us the chance to further praise Kubrick, Allen, Cronenberg, all things Criterion, and Bigelow's most fun movie, "Near Dark". The cinematic salad ThePoeticCritic is presenting maybe better described as Chicago-style Popcorn. It is a mega podcast where you just need to embrace the cheesy and the sweet.
