While Diana and Ryan did watch The Lost City (2022) and have opinions, this episode is mostly tangents about other Sandra Bullock movies.

Happy to find a movie with very low stakes, Diana's pick is the recent release, Mr. Malcolm's List (2022). Pride and Predjudice comparisons ensue.

For Ryan's dual pick, the ongoing story of Neo and Trinity in the most recent movie cast a more interesting light on their relationship from the original.

An episode planned before the first one was ever recorded, Diana nervously brings her pick Circle of Friends (1995). A good portion of her history with the movie is being unavailable to watch it during her entire career as a podcaster. This was finally resolved thanks to a shiny Blu-Ray arriving on her doorstep from the lovely (and all-star friend of the show) Meg. Despite being unfamiliar with the film, Ryan is quick to understand why it had a lasting impact on his wife. Three women, who've been friends since childhood, meet at university in Dublin in 1957.

Alluded to and now delivered, Erin Barry is back to talk about Dirty Work (1998). Imagine teenage Erin and Diana walking around high school with their tape recorders saying “Note to self…”. Even though much of this movie does not hold up, they still hold a deep respect for Norm MacDonald's style of comedy. The rest of the episode consists quoting the movie back and forth. Ridiculous. Follow Erin @rin_barr on Instagram. A loser finds success in the revenge-for-hire business.

Justine brings and shares her powers as we talk about her pick Practical Magic (1998). When she was a teen, it was about the love, magic, and beating the bad guy. On subsequent re-watches, she saw the haunting as the supernatural version of escaping an abusive relationship. As she discusses the plot and symbolism, Diana goes through this revaluation in real time. Check out Justine on Pod Appétit: Gourmet Takes and find her on Twitter @mixtapemontage & @pod_appetit and on Instagram @mixtapemontage & @pod_appetit.

In a new twist, Ryan's pick Blade Runner 2049 (2017) showcases a romance between an android and a hologram. Despite the gritty dystopian setting and the relationship only in about 20 minutes of the movie, there is still enough for a rich discussion about the bond between these artificial beings. Then it is debated if the bond was even real. Young Blade Runner K's discovery of a long-buried secret leads him to track down former Blade Runner Rick Deckard, who's been missing for thirty years. Stars Ryan Gosling, Ana de Armas, Robin Wright, Harrison Ford, Dave Bautista, Sylvia Hoeks, Edward James Olmos, Jared Leto, Mackenzie Davis, and Sean Young.

We're celebrating Frasuary with Diana's pick Mrs. Winterbourne (1996). She quickly points out this movie is While You Were Sleeping meets the '90s Sabrina remake. Ryan had to hold her hand as she dealt with the rewatch cringe. Fortunately Brenda Fraser's charm validates her choice.

The train crashes, and when Connie comes to in the hospital, she is mistaken for Patricia, who died in the crash with Hugh.

Diana's pick Coming to America (1988) is an often quoted movie at extended family dinners. Ryan was introduced when a different Eddie Murphy/John Landis movie was unavailable to stream.

Diana picked The Hating Game (2021), which has been operating as her most recent comfort watch. It's best if you prepare for big book versus movie comparisons. Despite her criticisms, she swears she really enjoyed the movie. Ryan expertly offers the “has not read the book” perspective. Resolving to achieve professional success without compromising her ethics, Lucy embarks on a ruthless game of one-upmanship against cold and efficient nemesis Joshua, a rivalry that is complicated by her growing attraction to him.

Instead of the moon, Diana lassos long time friend Kevin Lester to talk about It's a Wonderful Life (1946). Kevin shares that he appreciated how the movie didn't shy away from the darker elements and the struggle of a character always trying to do right by others. With many re-watches, he finds more to enjoy each time. Diana finally crosses this movie off her to-watch list, but may have to watch again since she saw the colorized version. Bask in the hilarity of The Simpsons and Saturday Night Live references we make. As of the writing of these show notes, the Christmas with the Joker episode of Batman the Animated Series is available to watch online. Be sure to follow Kevin on Twitter @lofikevin.
