The tenth episode of The Media By Us pan-media podcast, Talkie Talk.
In this episode, we have Brent, Chris, TJ and David discuss their Watchlist/Playlist, some brand new trailers debuting (trailers!) before going into the main topic: movies with a “rotten” rating (<50%) on Rotten Tomatoes, that are worth watching. Sometimes, RT’s ratings give short shrift to some worthwhile movies (or we just like it anyway… and can’t explain it).
We go through genres and movies that you shouldn’t let your media-Oracle filter out from your viewing Obelisk. So to speak.
