Dune!

Everybody is watching or has watched The Pitt except Hugh. It's a messy hang, but that's what we're up to over here. Elvin? Is it time to remind everyone of The Cosby Show? It's hard out there for actors, for everyone really, except popular 90s musicians. check out more over at the Patreon where we get even more personal (but no not like that). https://patreonl.com/kickersofelves (we talk vacations and end on Hatsune Miku)

You like Predator movies, right? So do we/ How does Predator Badlands work if you only view it as a stand alone move vs a movie setting up a whole trilogy or series? Wade and Hugh have different opinions. Plus, hey Wings of Desire is on Criterion maybe check it out. For more thoughts on criticism and politics, plus... religion? hold on. Check out the patreon https://www.patreon.com/posts/145381410

While KoE works on an upcoming project; Wade, James, and Hugh talk about the state of criticism, the state of media literacy, and how that relates to Culture, past and present. Why don't certain people even pretend to read books anymore? After this the discussion switches over to recent politics. Which you can access on the patreon if that's your thing: https://patreon.com/kickersofelves

We talk about One Battle After Another, but then get caught up in what others might think of his tenth movie *cough* Quentin, where's your last movie? *cough* What directors are in text streams together? Just how humane a filmmaker is Paul Thomas Anderson and how does he compare to Quentin Tarantino, David Fincher, Ari Aster, Guillermo Del Toro, Martin Scorcese, and -of course- the Coen Brothers?

We go back to the old ways: Three of us having disagreements about a science fiction television show. We talk a while about Noah Hawley as craftsman and artist, and what we think about the first four episodes of Alien: Earth on FX. Find more of us talking over at Patreon! patreon.com/kickersofelves
