Any thoughts on the new trend of romance films? It’s interesting with the likes of Babygirl, A Family Affair, Mad About the Boy,The Idea of You.Is this the rise of a new genre or the culmination of that part of the actors careers when they were/are sex symbols? @darrenmooney.bsky.social

@darrenmooney.bsky.social Might be my weekend movie even though I just watched it on Hulu Sunday!

@darrenmooney.bsky.social There’s so much not great going on right now.But you know what?I decided to rewatch Prey tonight before listening to the latest 250. It reminded me that 1)Women kickass 2)Movies are not dead and 3)The alien Predator…is so cool.Thank Andrew and Jess to for an amazing series.

@yongyea.bsky.social I was introduced to you after Escapist split, and you talked to Yahtzee. I liked your candidness and style. I also love Yakuza. Replaying Infinite Wealth before Pirates I saw a name…Yong Yea…I was like no……WHAT?! THAT GUY?! Holy shit. Simply put, you fucking rocked it. Goddamn.

I just watched the Diner Scene in Heat for the first time (plan on listening to your commentary after!) @darrenmooney.bsky.social And I get it. Wow. That is one of the best scenes of all time. I just had to tell another appreciator of film!

@sigmagears9.bsky.social Couples Trivia game tonight?!

Sorry to bug you twice in one day @darrenmooney.bsky.social but have you seen Better Man yet?! My brain is having trouble comprehending I’ve seen a new release you haven’t yet!

Me: Yay! New 250 podcast! Is it Covenant finally?! Me: *Sees Mulholland Dr* Me: Ope…well, guess I need to watch that! Never seen it, and looking forward to it @darrenmooney.bsky.social !

@darrenmooney.bsky.social I just saw Better Man. What…what in the hell? Why was it so good? I’d never heard of Robbie Williams before the movie, thought the concept was beyond stupid from the trailers. But the movie was AMAZING. Is it the Dark Horse movie of 2024?

@darrenmooney.bsky.social Listening to The Godfather episode from 2022, you asked if anything in cinema can be both commercial, critical, and awards season darling. I put forth one of my Top 5 movies of all time, “Everything, Everywhere, All At Once” as reaching all three areas. Thoughts?

On the The Predators episode of The 250, I was surprised that @darrenmooney.bsky.social favorite nepo baby wasn’t Tenet’s Jonathan Washington. What would Nolan think?!
