Welcome back, to the first episode of 2025 – we touch briefly on some Oscars discussions (this was all recorded in early February), but we dive into one of the major ones we have both seen, A Real Pain, as well as a couple of movies we made time for end of last year – one stinker and one good one. You'll have to listen on to hear what it is. We also get into some TV show discussion in the later half of the episode (and even a brief mention of a video game adaptation of a film).

This last year was a bit of an odd duck compared to 2023, which we talk about. There's some waxing and waning about why that is...art is not a science, so we may not know specifically why, but we are enjoying the art we have at our disposal any given moment.

Spoilers for We Live In Time from 21:38-23:24

Please bear with us, as life has been hitting us kind of hard lately and it is difficult for us to get around to recording, let alone watching, movies together. But we are slowly cracking on through our list and plan to still put out episodes this year. Go See A Movie (when you can)!
