We’ve got a David. We’ve got a Brent. We’ve got Chris. We’ve got background noises from two cool dogs. If you want to guess what movie Brent is watching next, we break down the formula he’s following this year. Our boss comes to visit and pretends to be a lowly employee. Just kidding – there’s no oversight – but we do talk about Undercover Boss for a WHILE. Also Survivor deep dive and News!
Also, apologies to Aaron Bleyaert. We called you Blair for 5 minutes.

Talkie Talk #93 - Anomalisa/Animated Movies for Adults/Homework

We’re here talking about TJ’s homework assignment from last week, Charlie Kaufman’s Anomalisa. Then we segue our way into other movies that are intended for adults despite being animated.
Now in Theaters Director: Denis Villeneuve Starring: Ryan Gosling, Harrison Ford
Absolutely mesmerizing. Blade Runner: 2049 is a gem. From the opening shot it is clear that Denis Villeneuve has a close eye for detail when it comes to the reference material. That’s not to say that the prior film is required viewing at all. 2049 is a master stroke in the way it sequelizes the series without deluding it to its essence.
**This won’t get spoilery, but skip this review if you’re sensitive to these kinds of things. Just know this: this tMbU member says GO SEE IT!**
