As Killers of the Flower Moon hits theatres today, we're begging to see the blueprints this week, going back to another major Scorsese/DiCaprio collab as Marty Month continues with 2004's The Aviator, directed by Martin Scorsese, written by John Logan, and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Cate Blanchett, Kate Beckinsale, John C. Reilly, Alec Baldwin, Alan Alda, Ian Holm and Adam Scott. It's an extremely polished prestige picture clearly aimed at cleaning up during awards season, though despite its obvious quality it still feels like the least essential of Scorsese and DiCaprio's collaborations -- perhaps a contributing factor to the fact that Hayley has owned this movie for more than a decade without having watched it, despite The Departed and Shutter Island being long-time faves of hers. But that's what the pod is here for.

We're hyper-fixating this week on fantasy drafts and Disney+'s Goosebumps series. Other films discussed on this episode include Val, Top Secret, many more Marty flicks, Jude Law's insane output from the year 2004, and Kate Beckinsale's missed opportunity to be Queen of Earth.

If you'd like to watch the movie before listening along, it is available to stream in Canada on Starz at the time of publication.

We'll be back next week with more Leo and Marty, as Scorsese Month continues with Gangs of New York -- a movie that is widely available for streaming at the moment in Canada: on Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Crave. Talk to you then!
