This week on Tinseltown, Devlin joins us to discuss the perfect storm of song, visuals, and free-range metaphors that is Ken Russell’s The Who’s Tommy, a thoroughly Christmas-adjacent film, featuring the music-adjacent singing of Oliver Reed!
COMING SOON. DANG SOON. (Note the dates, I made the poster before adding the text and… well, you can see why we shifted one of them down the list.)
Happy guest month!
THESE WEEKS ON TINSELTOWN! We’ve got two from the vaults, as well as our final alternate universe excursion!
* First, while attempting to sort out my universe situation, Anton and I review the Soviet New Year movie “Морозко” in this Tinseltown From the Vaults episode from our Patreon archives.
* Then, interdimensional versions of Sarah and I spend an EXTREMELY long time talking about “The Ten Commandments”, the horniest bible movie ever.
* And next week, we’re releasing Lara’s long lost first episode from the Tinseltown Vault, AND… it’s one of our wildcards. Representing Lifetime, it’s: “The Flight Before Christmas”!
Jeepers creeping cripes, the start of the school year beat me up so bad that I haven’t advertised the show for like four weeks. Well, we got a lot for you!
- Courtney and I tackle tricky issues with grace AND write an educational rap about bathroom etiquette as we review Midsommar!
- Colleen and I find religion in The Robe, which takes place one room over from The Bible!
- Justin and I meet a little boy named Sam and if we aren’t careful, we just might learn something. Its Trick ‘r Treat!
- Plus a bonus Halloween episode with Emily!
Back in the Labor Day universe now, Brian and Emily take an in-depth look at Newsies, the number one source for millennial childhood crushes by volume.
This week, our transmission comes from the Mardi Gras universe, which, as far as transmissions you can get from Mardi Gras goes, is fairly mild. Robbie and Brian of that world bring you: “The Princess and the Frog”!
This weeks episode comes to you from the Leap Day universe, where Lara and I have hundreds of Leap Day movies to choose from. CONVENIENTLY, we wound up reviewing Leap Year, a movie you can watch in this very universe! Not that we would recommend you do so.
Well, it looks like my Internet is still getting filtered through the giant swirling vortex in my office, so this week’s episode comes from the Labor Day universe, as David and I look at “Salt of the Earth”, a movie that contains absolutely nothing any sensible person would disagree with, unless you live in the 1950s, in which case it’s communist propaganda. and don’t forget to check out last weeks stop in the election day universe, when and I looked at “Swing Vote“ which is just… just… the worst.
