Anne of Green Gables (1985)

Super fan Keith Fisher commissioned this podcast on Subbable as a Christmas present for his lovely wife, as it is one of her all time favorite movies.  I feel like I’m sliding a large lump of coal down her stocking (hey now!) because it was not Jim and I’s favorite movie.  But still, we gave it the Bald Move treatment!  Are you in the mood for a heartwarming story of a megalomaniac orphan spiritually and emotionally enslaved by a shut in old couple, as she seeks death in ever more creative ways while lashing out in rages against old ladies and class clowns?  As if this tale weren’t already dark enough, how will this sleepy Canadian community deal with the pedophilic school teacher in their midst?  Will Matthew’s old heart be able to take it?! (Spoiler alert: It will not.)  So, Merry Christmas, Keith’s wife!  Put down the chalk board and climb down from the roof’s edge, I’m sure the rest of your presents will be better…

The Godfather: Part II (1974)

Jim and A.Ron do another deep dive into the world of Coppola’s The Godfather, this time looking at Part II, which celebrates it’s 40th anniversary tomorrow.  A darker, more brooding, more intricate film that it’s predecessor, we struggle to answer the question, which is better?  Along the way we play a lot of what if’s and comparisons.  Clemenza or Pentangeli?  Vito or Michael?  Brando or De Niro? When did Vito decide to be the Don? What is Tom and Michael’s relationship at the end?  Where did Michael go wrong?  DID Michael go wrong?  All this and much more is contemplated in this mammoth two hour podcast, for your holiday enjoyment.  Hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording it.

204 – Down

This is a downer of an episode, for sure. Everyone, and I mean everyone, is being an a-hole to everyone else. Some for understandable, legitimate episodes, some for less clear reasons. Jim and A.Ron, leading experts at a-hole-ism, break it down for you as they discuss Walt’s obvious, desperate breakfasts, Skyler’s gamesmanship, Walt Jr’s Flynn’s rebellion, and Jesse bluing himself. All this, your feedback, AND a robust, over-sized spoiler section!
