Pod People, we went to a film festival! Well, kind of. As we did last year, we bought virtual Sundance Film Festival tickets and had the chance to catch Didn't Die, an apocalyptic zombie flick directed by Meera Menon. We discuss the film's obvious nods to George Romero, the different ways we as humans cope with tragedy, Indian representation in horror, how zombie movies just feel more real since the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, and more.Didn't Die is currently on the film festival circuit, so it isn't available to stream at this time. We do discuss some of the plot, most of which can be surmised in trailers for the film, but we were conscious not to spoil some of the twists and surprises in the film.

Hey Everyone! It's been quite some time since my last podcast episode so I'm catching up from where I left off (Obi Wan Kenobi series) and then into more recent things I've seen (Ms. Marvel series and Thor: Love and Thunder movie). This is not an in-depth review of anything in particular but just more of my thoughts and comments about all of these shows/movies and a bit going off tangent. Obi-Wan Kenobi Rating: TV-14 Genre: Action, Adventure, Science Fiction “Obi-Wan Kenobi” begins 10 years after the dramatic events of “Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith” where Obi-Wan Kenobi faced his greatest defeat—the downfall and corruption of his best friend and Jedi apprentice, Anakin Skywalker, who turned to the dark side as evil Sith Lord Darth Vader. Directed By Deborah Chow Cast Ewan McGregor, Hayden Christensen, Moses Ingram, Joel Edgerton, Bonnie Piesse, Kumail Nanjiani, Indira Varma, Rupert Friend, O'Shea Jackson Jr., Sung Kang, Simone Kessell, Benny Safdie Ms. Marvel Rating: TV-PG Release Date: June 8, 2022 Genre: Action, Adventure, Comedy "Ms. Marvel," launching on Disney+, is a new series that introduces Kamala Khan—a 16-year-old Pakistani-American growing up in Jersey City. A great student, an avid gamer and a voracious fan-fiction scribe, she has a special affinity for superheroes, particularly Captain Marvel. But Kamala struggles to fit in at home and at school—that is, until she gets super powers like the heroes she's always looked up to. Life is easier with super powers, right? Iman Vellani stars as Kamala Khan aka Ms. Marvel; the cast also includes Aramis Knight, Saagar Shaikh, Rish Shah, Zenobia Shroff, Mohan Kapur, Matt Lintz, Yasmeen Fletcher, Laith Naki, Azher Usman, Travina Springer and Nimra Bucha.

“[Leti in ‘Lovecraft Country’] is such an excellent example of society equating a woman’s sexual confidence with her sexual experience and labeling women who take ownership over their bodies as easy or slutty.” -Meg McCarthy This week, we explore the meaning and the myth of virginity in film and television as it relates to women coming of age. Meg draws upon the work of the groundbreaking expert on adolescent sexuality, Peggy Orenstein. “I'd rather people think of sex more horizontally [ …] as a way to explore intimacy and pleasure than as this misguided vertical race to a goal,” writes Orenstein in her book, Girls & Sex: Navigating the Complicated New Landscape. In other words: it’s “first times” (plural) and there’s no cookie cutter experience that applies to everyone.  Then we talk to the super talented actor/writer/director Sujata Day (Misadventures of an Awkward Black Girl, Insecure) about her excellent feature directorial debut Definition Please. It was an official selection at the 2020 Bentonville Film Festival in the Feature Narrative Competition and has been having a great run on the (virtual) film festival circuit ever since its August 2020 premiere. We also uncover the real-life story of the shocking birds and the bees “talk” Day received from her mother as a teen. Check out Beandrea’s review of Definition Please for The Hollywood Reporter. Movies & Television Little Darlings This 1980s classic set the tone for a host of other movies like it to come in future decades about how adolescent girls define virginity. For Angel (Kristy McNichol) and Ferris (Tatum O’Neal) it’s a competition, a really big deal, and not what either girl thinks it will be. I Believe in Unicorns The Film Fatales Founder and writer/director Leah Meyerhoff debuted her film I Love Unicorns at the Tribeca Film Festival. Meyerhoff uses a blend of magical realism and stop-motion animation to take us inside the imaginative world of Davina (Natalia Dyer - a previous podcast guest from Episode 1!) as she begins a tumultuous relationship with an older guy. Here, we get to see a darker side of what it means to have sex with a man for the first time as a young woman whose inner world is quite different than the world around her. Lady Bird We discuss how Greta Gerwig’s instant classic pushes the boundaries of the stories we’re used to seeing about the first sexual experiences of teen girls. Of course, that includes a brief chat about Timothée Chalamet as well.  Farah Goes Bang With the fraught 2020 election now in the rearview, it’s refreshing to watch this “on the road” movie about three friends who spend the summer campaigning for John Kerry’s 2004 presidential campaign. Co-writer/director Meera Menon adds a funny, moving, and much-needed spin on the genre of virginity movies by exploring what it means to make a conscious choice when it comes to sex. Blockers Director Kay Cannon’s teen sex comedy could be seen as Little Darlings 2.0, as it’s another pact that three friends make to have sex on their prom night. The twist here is that their parents find out about it and try to thwart their plans. We discuss what reviews of the film got wrong (we’re looking at you LA Times) and celebrate the queer storyline of one of the main characters. Normal People (S1, Episode 2) With full-frontal nudity and unabashed passion, Normal People is not a typical story about teenagers coming of age and falling in love. We take a closer look at the second episode of the series and ask about how much is too much when it comes to believability in sex scenes and why it made us appreciate romance novels more.  Lovecraft Country (S1, Episodes 3 & 6) Lovecraft Country from creator and showrunner Misha Greene is our absolute jam! We chat about the episodes “Holy Ghost”  and “Meet Me in Daegu” and just how good this show is at crafting sex scenes that help us better understand the characters and make the show such a thrill to watch. We also have a short callback to CherryPop Episode 4 with HBOs intimacy coordinator Alicia Rodis, who worked with the actors and crew on the “Meet Me in Daegu” episode.

Talking through Bounty! On this episode 93 of The Walking Dead Talk Through, Mark and special guest co-host Steve Brown from Panels to Pixels discuss The Walking Dead Season 9 Episode 11, which is titled Bounty. This was written by co-executive producer Matthew Negrete, and directed by Meera Menon. Thanks to Steve for subbing in for me this week! Don’t worry, you still hear from me this week, but through voicemail instead of hosting the episode. Despite me not being on the podcast this week, I thought the episode was great, and exactly what I needed after the last few episodes didn’t captivate me like I’m used to. SPOILER ALERT!!! SPOILER ALERT!!! The rest of this blog post requires a SPOILER WARNING!!! If you haven’t watched this week’s episode, then you probably should stop now. An Exchange… We saw Alden and Luke exchanged for Lydia. I know that many of them didn’t want to give up Lydia, but what could they do? They owe it to Alden and Luke while keeping Lydia would not make any sense, since Alden and Luke would have most certainly been killed. Leave the baby alone! We see the coldness of Alpha and The Whisperers, with them leaving a crying baby for the walkers. I know this was probably difficult to see for a lot of people, myself included. I think she was testing them to see if they’d care. I thought the scene with Connie rescuing the baby and then trying to thwart off the walkers in the sorghum field (looked like corn, but the behind the scenes video calling it a sorghum field) was tense and I was noticeably scared for Connie. Daryl comes to her rescue, but other Hilltop people were behind him, including Tammy Rose and Earl, who eventually take the baby, to raise, I assume. Are we shipping Daryl and Connie? I’ve heard a lot of people shipping those two. I, honestly, never thought of that at the time, until I heard it said on Talking Dead. Now, I can’t stop thinking about it. If that happens, it’s about time! The Bounty One of the best aspects of the episode was The Kingdom’s side trip, to retrieve a projector bulb, so they can watch movies again. This was fun, inspiring, and a ray of hope in an otherwise depressing story. I needed that hope after some pretty depressing elements of this post-Rick era. Ezekiel, Jerry, and, of course, Carol light up the screen. Ratings are up and down from last week… This week, TWD got a 1.71 in the 18-49 demographic with 4.386 million viewers, up slightly from 1.68 in the 18-49, and down slightly from with 4.538 million last week. Since last week’s ratings and viewers were at an all-time low, this marks a new low for total viewers. Talking Dead had a 0.62 in the 18-49 and 1.712 million viewers, up slightly from 0.59 and 1.656 million respectively.

Hollister & O'Toole discuss Equity, which bills itself as "the first female driven Wall Street movie". Directed by Meera Menon; screenplay by Amy Fox; starring Anna Gunn ("Breaking Bad"), as well as Alysia Reiner ("Orange is the New Black") and Sarah Megan Thomas (who also produced the film). Most of the film's financial backing came from real-life women of Wall Street - who assure us that Equity (which premiered at Sundance, where it was acquired by Sony) will indeed turn a profit. Because, after all, they "like money".
