Decided to combine these two into one episode. Welcome back Franchise Film Freaks, we talk about a trashy horror franchise and we have mixed feelings on it! Join us next week for the STANLEY KUBRICK spotlight. We're watching Dr. Strangelove Or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, A Clockwork Orange, Full Metal Jacket, and Eyes Wide Shut! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thatscanonpod/support

We wanted to watch David Fincher's newest film Mank, but we felt it would not be right without going back in time and watching one of the greatest movies in cinematic history, in which the film is based on, and we added Citizen Kane to the mix as well. We have some really great discussion in an episode that I am very excited to release today.What's Next:Apr. 16 - David Fincher Spotlight (Fight Club, Zodiac, The Social Network)Apr. 23 - Oscars Best Picture Round Up (Nomadland, Sound of Metal, The Father, Minari)Apr. 30 - Oscars Recap Show--- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thatscanonpod/support

DO NOT LISTEN IF YOU DO NOT WANT GODZILLA VS KONG SPOILED. If you like watching big monsters doing big monster shit, then this is the movie for you. Get some popcorn and a group of safe friends and have a watch party because this is an absolute banger. ****Also it must be noted... we compared the GvK's 2 days of opening numbers to total grosses of Inception and Interstellar and in hindsight, that was dumb. Godzilla vs Kong in its first week has grossed $121 million compared which is almost $60 million more than Inception's opening weekend and $75 million more than Interstellar.**** What's Next: Apr. 9 - Citizen Kane/Mank Apr. 16 - David Fincher Spotlight (Fight Club, Zodiac, The Social Network) Apr. 23 - Oscars Best Picture Catch Up (Nomadland, Sound of Metal, The Father, Minari) Apr. 30 - Oscars Recap Show --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thatscanonpod/support
