Have you ever watched a movie you were excited for but felt disappointed in some way? Were you left wondering why it wasn't better? This is the podcast that has the answers! We review films that were highly anticipated, but were for a variety of reasons either disappointing, underachieving, or misunderstood, and ramble about why they weren't better. This is a podcast for film nerds and for anyone who enjoys some lighthearted, semi-serious, in-depth discussion.Why Wasn't It Better? Arte

    Finding Forrester
    Dec 26 2025

    “You’re the man now, dawg!” Finding Forrester gave us Sean Connery’s penultimate role — and one of the most quoted (and memed) lines of the early 2000s. We revisit this feel-good mentor drama about a reclusive writer and a gifted teen, and ask: is there a great movie buried beneath the clichés? From its Good Will Hunting echoes to Connery’s quiet gravitas, we dig into why this film connected with audience, and why it still feels a little forgotten.

  • A Christmas Carol (2009)

    A Christmas Carol (2009)
    Dec 24 2025

    Our annual Christmas episode! Jim Carrey as Scrooge, animated in mo-cap 3D sounds like a holiday classic, right? Robert Zemeckis' version of A Christmas Carol promised a visually stunning, motion-capture reimagining of the timeless Dickens tale — but did it capture the magic of the original, or just get lost in the tech?
