@thefilmcastpod@Audioboom It's always hard to say which of the three will be my favorite every year, but Devindra's comments at the beginning on William Hurt and protecting women almost guarantee he'll hold that spot for 2022 <3
#slashtag I did it. I saw Motorama. I am a changed human. youtu.be/JwT9nIZCsO0 A 90s roadtrip movie starring a kid, Drew Barrymore, Jack Nance, Susan Tyrell, John Diehl, Meatloaf AND Flea? Where has Motorama been my whole life?
Summit of the Gods (2021) has incredible emotion and pacing for such an overlooked animated film. Creative use of the medium and hypnotic soundtrack. Highly recommend #Slashtag@Devindra@jeffcannata
#slashtag Lingui is a gorgeously shot, slow burn of a story about a mom & daughter struggling to get an illegal procedure in Chad. Some too convenient plot events, but gr8 performances; fittingly, on Mubi. @jeffcannata@davechensky@Devindra
#slashtag How do you do a perfect five minute funny stand up performance centered on your Mother's death ? Watch Maria Bamford here. youtube.com/watch?v=2P6YxP…
This year’s #Oscars animated short film nominees are phenomenal. All five are visual and storytelling works of art. Each one brings something interesting to the table. Highest recommendation. #Slashtagpic.twitter.com/jk3dPmAti9
#slashtag Jeen-yuhs the Kanye West documentary series on Netflix is amazing. Even if you guys are not the biggest Kanye fans I highly recommend it as a really fascinating portrait with some amazing archival footage @jeffcannata@Devindra@davechensky
Shazam! Fury of the Gods director David F. Sandberg isn't worried about the DCEU film competing with James Cameron's Avatar 2 at the box office.

I am giving a strong recommendation of BEYOND THE INFINITE TWO MINUTES to the #SlashTag. But the caveat is that anyone watching it shouldn’t read a word about it. This is a go in blind and be amazed kind of experience. @davechensky@jeffcannata@Devindra
@thefilmcastpod not sure if @jeffcannata being a Warriors fan might deter him, but I’d recommend he check out the new Adam McKay HBO show Winning Time about the Showtime Lakers, it’s an exciting show & channels McKay’s Don’t Look Up sensibilities and sense of humor #slashtag
@jeffcannata FRESH was my favorite film at Sundance '22. I think @davechensky really undersells it, especially in not disclosing that it's a "delicious" dark comedy. American Psycho meets Get Out. You can tell Sebastian Stan is having the best time ever in this film. #slashtag
@thefilmcastpod My friend does a video series, "Cut Up" about movies. His last one talks about actors too old to play the role, a topic you guys covered :) youtube.com/watch?v=6S4TP6… - He talks about 2 more movies #slashtag
@davechensky “Threads” by Mick Jackson is a film that applies to current events so much so that the dates line up. (the film opens with “Saturday, March 5th”) Low budget, but so intense that it feels like a documentary at times. #slashtag@thefilmcastpod
@jeffcannata since your rec a few years ago Grand Designs as been a favorite of mine and my wife. Back then only two season were available on Netflix, but FYI we recently discovered two more available on the Roku Channel and then 3 more beyond that on Brit Box. #slashtag
#slashtag "Retaliation" (2020) Orlando Bloom gives an incredibly moving performance in a film that is not at all the action movie the title and the thumbnail suggest. Also: 90 min, ending: 10/10
#slashtag One of you mentioned "THE Suicide Squad" (2021) in "what we've been watching." After watching it this weekend, I nominate it for a full SlashFilm review. Smart entertaining movie! In my top 5 of all time.
Watching this with my daughter on Disney+ and it’s actually very funny. It pokes a lot of fun at the prequels and doesn’t take it self too seriously. I’ve watched all the Lego Star Wars content and this is my favourite. #Slashtagpic.twitter.com/PamwSVg8A9

"Inside No. 9"
Brilliant, undefinable British 1/2 hour show. Black Mirror/Twilight Zone-ish but also both hilarious and dark.
Can watch in any order. First 2 seasons on Hulu. Try episodes 1.2, 2.2, and 2.4 (season 3-5 are even better: 3.3, 4.1, 4.2, 5.3, 5.6.) Enjoy!
Tonight's family movie night: The Cat Returns on HBOMax. Studio Ghibli but not Miyazaki. Fun fairytale with talking cats. We adults and kids both loved it. Voice actors: @Cary_Elwes & Anne Hathaway. #slashtag
Watching a new sci-fi series on HBO called Dream Raider. A dark blend of Sion Sono's Suicide Club, Nolan's Inception, and Tarsem Singh's The Cell. Really enjoying it so far. #slashtagpic.twitter.com/I5gLEICtoU
SUNDOWN is currently out in theatres, but I recommend streaming Michel Franco's controversial, Grand Jury Prize-winning NEW ORDER (2020) first. Its citywide chaos is so gut-wrenching that @davechensky will certainly love it #slashtag
@thefilmcastpod I watched The Beta Test on Hulu. I think it's kind of a mess, but not an altogether unpleasant one. Jim Cummings has some real talent #slashtag
