9ES309: Antiauteur Afficianados

May 04, 2024 01:59 - 1 hour - 63.9 MB

Zack Snyder scargiveth and Zack Snyder scartaketh away. That sentence is apropos of nothing other than fun wordplay with the very dumb title that is Rebel Moon – Part 2: The Scargiver.

9ES308: Desert Storm to Dino Dracula

April 19, 2024 01:57 - 1 hour - 64.6 MB

This episode of the 9to5 Entertainment System is steeped in nostalgia and it’s almost entirely unintentional.

9ES301: He’s Whatever Sells Consoles

January 12, 2024 02:40 - 1 hour - 64.2 MB

I think the thing that struck me the most about the Barbie movie is that when Ken has a beach accident (despite being fully qualified for “Beach”) he receives prompt and free medical care.

July 29, 2023 03:08 - 1 hour - 67.7 MB
