Garrick was an awesome guest on our show. So if you enjoyed this episode half as much as we did, do make sure you seek out more of Garrick’s work. Watch Hulu’s Solar Opposites and Star Trek: Lower Decks on Paramount +, subscribe to Guilty Pleasures on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you might listen, and follow Garrick Bernard (at his name) via his website, Twitter, and Instagram.

If you are spoiler phobic, there’s about 20 minutes of non-spoilers to kick off this episode. Garrick discusses what the franchise has meant to him, why Justin Lin both tapped into and elevated an entire car culture with Tokyo Drift, and how Lin & F9 still deliver so much, despite polarizing reviews from critics. He also talks about the joys of attending the Hollywood Chinese Theater press screening and how the cars of F9 stack up with those that you can find in the rest of the series and with what’s allowed on American streets.

You then get your spoiler warning, and we dive into the plot breakdown in the same format that we’ve enjoyed for each of the 9 previous films. We describe the plot poorly, discuss the fastest and most furious characters, rate the action movie ridiculousness, and speculate about what’s next for the famiglia. There’s also a shockingly wise and serious discussion about the Oscars before Garrick gets us laughing again with side convos on everyone from Tom Cruise to Martin Scorsese.

As always, we hope you enjoyed this episode as much as we did, and we want to hear your thoughts. We’re at MMandOscar on Twitter, and we are at Mike, Mike, and Oscar on Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, and Gmail. You can subscribe / rate / review / like / share / & hear us on Apple Podcasts, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Google Play, Tune In, Spotify, and just about wherever you might listen. We’re Mike, Mike, & Oscar, and we’re making awards season year round, without the stuffiness. Thank you! And do stay safe, everybody.

As we do with most of our movie review episodes, the first part is spoiler free, and in this case, that accounts for the first 23 minutes. So click play for our general thoughts on the story, the performances, & production of Black Widow. Does it have any Oscars possibilities? And how does it rank amongst other MCU films?

Then we give you a spoiler warning and dive right into the plot. You get our immediate thoughts on the very very beginning and the finale, and we dissect all our best and worst scenes from there. The highs are indeed high, and the lows are quite aggravating. So do check out the show to see where we land.

If you enjoyed this episode, do seek out our 26 track “Marvel Cinematic Universe Series Review” playlist on spotify. It was our very first rewatch series, and we tackled 3 MCU films at a time in those episodes. Then we’ve enjoyed full review shows on each subsequent Marvel CU release ever since. Hell, we’ve also done a bunch of two part reviews, full sets of previews, and a few specials and homemade awards shows with featured guests.

And as always, we want to hear what you think on Black Widow or any of these MCU episodes.

Amanda of Swell Entertainment returns to defend the honor of Dev Patel in The Green Knight, and lucky for us, her english major is finally put to good use. Because let’s face it. We, like many of you, have a great many questions about medieval literature and why in the fuck, Dev Patel’s character does what he does in this story. The answers may frighten us, but we do come to some conclusions in this episode that are unlike anything else we’ve seen or read about this movie.

As always, make sure to seek out Amanda’s channel, Swell Entertainment on Youtube, and enjoy her new podcast: Swell Shenanigans. You can also follow her at luvu2golka on Twitter and Instagram. She’s one of our favorite guests for a reason, and although we don’t make many demands of you, this is one. Do support her work, and yes please, help her pay off that English Major if you can via her Patreon at Swell Entertainment.

This is an Oscars Profile movie review episode on The Green Knight, which means we begin with a non-spoiler section to introduce the film, discuss our movie watching experiences, and give you our spoiler free reviews of the performances, production values, and yes, some overall thoughts on the story, which to be fair, are shorter thoughts than usual because we desperately need to get into spoilers on this one ASAFP.

So after minute 17, and our spoiler warning, we jump into a spoiler filled discussion on what in the actual fuck happened in The Green Knight, both in its literary and cinematic forms. Amanda helps us out in the former, and we wonder which version of the story would have better served the film. We also thoroughly breakdown the Dev Patel character, the baffling decisions made by and for him, and then dive into a what it all means conversation that gets down and dirty. In other words, this is most definitely a NSFW episode that you should keep from your kids until they are much much older.

Regardless of our differing opinions, we unite in an immature sense of humor and laugh like fools. So as always, we’re open to your thoughts. We’re at MMandOscar on Twitter, and we are at Mike, Mike, and Oscar on Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, and Gmail. You can subscribe / rate / review / like / share / & hear us on Apple Podcasts, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Google Play, Tune In, Spotify, and just about wherever you might listen.

We build our non-spoiler first half towards an Oscars Lens segment before our spoiler section celebrates all our favorite scenes. So you could consider this film study episode on Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings as both a Movie Event AND an Oscars Profile movie review.

There are also some high stakes for the upcoming theatrical release schedule that we foreshadow in the opening discussion, and we have fun speculating and contextualizing where this film fits in with the rest of the MCU in our back half. So do make sure to check out all of our Marvel film reviews via a scroll downward on the Playlist tab in our Soundcloud feed. We’ve kept up with reviews of all movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and we plan to continue to do so.

Otherwise, and as always, we want to hear your thoughts on this film. We’re at MMandOscar on Twitter, and we are at Mike, Mike, and Oscar on Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, and Gmail. You can subscribe / rate / review / like / share / & hear us on Apple Podcasts, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Google Play, Tune In, Spotify, and just about wherever you might listen.
