Ladies and GENTLEMEN who like it hot, we have quite the pick from a disgruntled Snob, Jared. He was NOT happy with the previous picks and even went as far as to say that they made him feel PETTY not PRETTY. But today we have Jared's pick from 1959 and from director Billy Wilder, “Some Like it Hot.” This film stars Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis and Marilyn Monroe! We have a good time talking about just why this pick is so good and how it makes us feel pretty inside and outside.

Here. We. GO!!! Snobbies, we have the third film in the I FEEL PRETTY theme. This pick comes from Eric and from Director Tarsem Singh comes, “The Fall.” This film split the snobs up the middle.

Welcome back Snobbies. Today we have a great little flick for I FEEL PRETTY. Caleb chose a film that he thought looked pretty and created a very beautiful scene to look at. From director Justin Kurzel, “Macbeth.” This film is a tough watch if you have ever tried to watch Shakespeare adaptations before. This one was unique and we talked through how this film made us feel and Jared shares his thoughts on just how much he hates the Shakespearean language.

WOWOWOWIIIIIEEEE. This pick from Cody was a bit of a curveball! We begin our next topic of “I FEEL PRETTY” where Cody picked a film from 1980 about the 1990's. A rock Opera and glamorous take on the future…this film almost left us with nothing to talk about. From director Menahem Golan comes, “The Apple.” Can I talk about the plot in this synopsis? No. Truly I don't know what to say other than this is a film about two folk signers who are tempted by fame and the evils there within.

Hey there Snobbies! Today's pick comes from Eric after he saw this film on an Actress's top four on Letterboxd. The plot of the film intrigued him given that it is basically a 1960's French, female John Wick story. From director François Truffaut, the films “The Bride Wore Black.” This film was a treat and the snobs, sans Caleb, really enjoyed watching this film.

SNOBBIES! It's the end of the Spooky season! It hardly seems that the time is here. It feels like it had just begun. But this week we have Jared's pick for Spooktober V and he chose a film that has been on our spooky lists for years. A film cloaked in darkness and creepy imagery. A film directed by the great Werner Herzog, “Nosferatu the Vampyre.” Joining us on this trip is JOHNNY P! We are so happy to have him on the pod. Having seen this film in the Prospect basement with Jared a few years ago, the rewatch of this film was a very spooky time.

Hey everyone, this week we have Caleb's pick for SPOOKTOBER! This pick comes to us from director Alejandro Amenábar and is “The Others.” This film is very hard to talk about without spoiling the film, but it takes place in 1945 at the end of the war where we find Nicole Kidman giving some new caretakers the tour of the house before giving them the job. The film gets very interesting when her daughter and son start to see “Others” in the home and Nicole suspects that ghosts are inhabiting the home.

SPOOOOOOOOOOOKTOBER is still here! Today is Eric's pick and he chose to pick a film that is a callback from Episode 1 of The Film Snobs, and we only talked about it for 15 minutes. A film that deserves hours of conversation, directed by Na Hong-jin, “The Wailing.” This film is NOT for the faint of heart. A film that delves into the supernatural and the demonic. WE really crack this film open. Guest STEVEN joins us on the pod and we manage to have more than a few spooooooky technical problems…but we prevailed.

Hey there Snobbies. Today we have Caleb's pick for ROMCOM. Jared came in HARD that this is NOT a RomCom. This was heavily debated on this episode as we discussed why the Paul Thomas Anderson Directed film “Punch Drunk Love,” belongs in this category. If a film's heart is romance and comedy, isn't it a RomCom? Is it a NeuroDivergentRomCom? Is it just pure chaos energy? What we DO know, is that this is a heck of a film and we were here for it! Eric especially loved any time Philip Seymour Hoffman graces the screen. This episode was a lot of fun, we hope you enjoyed it too.

WE decided to watch a INSANE film from the creative and genius mind of Mike Cheslik and Ryland Brickson Cole Tews…comes a film unlike anything you have ever seen, and we can confidently say this, “Hundreds of Beavers.” This film is taking a silent film approach with ADR and hyper-toonlike-violence and we are HERE FOR IT! We talk about Beavers, Rabbits, raccoons, trappers, Santa Claus, surviving the winter, genocide, and much much more.

We gave Cody the assignment to pick the topic and the film. He picked ROM COMS, and picked the unlikely choice of “Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines,” directed by Ken Annakin.

Snobbies! We're back with Cody's pick for REMAKES and this one is a stone cold classic. Kurt Russell has never been hotter?? Questions mark?? This remake is from a 1951 original called, “The Thing From Another World,” adapted from the 1938 novel, Who Goes There? WE WATCHED Director John Carpenter's, “The Thing.” THIS. FILM. RULES!!! We had an absolute blast watching this film. Every once and a while, the Snobs watch a film that just makes us react. The Thing was more psychological than we thought and we loved talking through what makes us human? Who can we trust? What even was this film trying to say? One thing was for sure, this film had EPIC visual effects. Ooey, Gooey, gutsy, visual effects.

Good morning SNOBBIES! And welcome back to our episode on Terence Davies month. This week we have Jared's pick and he decided to go with “The Long Day Closes.” This film has a similar feel and vibe to Distant Voices, Still Lives. In this film we follow the perspective of Bud, a boy in Liverpool in the 1950's, coming of age around the other family members and the austere Catholic Church as he enters the rigors of school, nurtures a bedazzled love of the movies and longs for companionship. Jared says this is a near perfect film and Terence Davies best film he's ever made. We dive into childhoods, favorite shots, the Davies Dissolve, and much much more. Enjoy!

Snobbies. Welcome to a new segment. Today we are featuring an old ep from the archives. This episode is one that we have talked about more than once on the podcast. The topic when this originally aired was "Going on a Journey." This was Ricky's week to pick a film and he decided to go with MXP Most Xtreme Primate as the film that best represented "Going on a Journey." You can tell on the pod, but I was a little less than enthusiastic about this pick. Probably one of the only times I've actively tried to derail a podcast due to how horrible the film was. Ahhh, fun times. Anyway, enjoy this throwback week as we recuperate after the holidays and we WILL be back with Jared's Terence Davies pick next time! See you then!

The film follows certain characters as they go through circus life. Hans, one of the main characters and who has dwarfism, is infatuated with a female acrobat named Cleopatra and this infatuation gets everyone into a heap of trouble.

Here. We. GOOOOO!! Welcome back to SPOOKTOBER 4, pick #3 by Cody Martin himself. We are excited to talk about this film. This animated EPIC is packed with delicious animation, beautiful shots, and a tragic story. This film is directed by Yoshiaki Kawajiri and is called, “Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust.” This film, in the words of Cody is the perfect middle ground as it doesn't feel like a halloween movie made by Disney or an over the top horror flick. WE really had a good time with this film and found it to be the perfect Sppoktober addition to the collection. Enjoy!
