262: A Podcast Called FRED - Guardians of the Galaxy vol.3 Review

For Episode 408, Ema Sasic, Dan Bayer, Nadia Dalimonte & Giovanni Lago, and I are back to deliver our final recap of the 81st Venice Film Festival and our massive, probably too extensive recap of the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival. We have a ton of movies to get through, so we won't be reacting to trailers for this week, but hopefully, when you're finished listening, you have a complete picture of everything that played at all the fall film festivals as awards season kicks off! Movies discussed include "The Life Of Chuck," "The Brutalist," "Joker: Folie à Deux," "Eden," "Saturday Night," "The Room Next Door," "We Live In Time," "Queer," "Nightbitch," "The Wild Robot," "Anora," "Emilia Pérez" and many, many more. We also go over the winners of last week's poll, asking, "Which Film From The 2024 Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) Do You Think Will Win The People's Choice Award?" ask this week's poll question, "Which World Premieres From The 2024 Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) Are You Most Looking Forward To?" answer your fan-submitted questions and more. Thank you all so very much for listening, supporting, and subscribing. We hope you enjoy this week's epic episode.
