The Film School Janitors are back in school, and they're going to Nic Cage University!

Their goal is to watch and review every film Nicolas Cage has ever made... and will ever make! 

This week's assignment: ASTRO BOY

In the CGI adaptation of the classic anime, Nic Cage plays Tenma, Astro Boy's "father." How well does he convey the tortured soul of a man who lost everything? Like he got a paycheck? Listen to hear more!

NCU 66: Astro Boy (2009) Review

This was a short that slipped under the Film School Janitors' radar, but it won an Oscar (a couple years ago) and had acclaim (a couple years ago) and some controversy (a couple years ago). 

The short film is called TWO DISTANT STRANGERS (now) and it's available on Netflix (now) and this is the Janitors' review (now).

NETFLIX AND CHILLED: Two Distant Strangers (2020) Review

Here’s a little story about a trio of janitors. 
Might have heard they worked at a well-known film school.
They picked up a few things other than trash. 
They might hate your movie, or if drunk think it’s cool.
Every now and then they get together for a lunch break. 
Trash talk some movie, or TV, or streaming.
Rodney and Jason and Sean – they all clean halls. 
If you listen close you can hear kids screaming: Film School Janitors!

At your local top-tier film-and-TV school, these three lurk the halls… sweeping… scrubbing…mopping…

What you drop, they pick up.  But that’s not all they’re picking up.

You see, after twenty years of cleaning up after film students, they’ve learned something – most movies are garbage.

So whenever their lunch breaks align, they catch up on the latest Hollywood has to offer.

In between taking out the trash, they’re talking trash.

Rodney – Sean – Jason… They are The Film School Janitors
