Greetings programs! This week on the show, we take a look at the newly on-demand fantasy heist movie Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves before switching gears to the upcoming Canadian dramatization of the rise and fall of one of our biggest tech giants, BlackBerry. We also talk a little about the writer’s strike, and just in case there is any ambiguity: we stand with the writers.

This week on our patron bonus chat, we talk about Robert Zemeckis and speculate about his filmmaking motivations and output, especially when considering the stone-cold classics he made in the 1980s and 1990s compared to his more recent output. We hope you like it!

This piece/episode was produced during the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. Without the labour of the writers and actors currently on strike, the films being discussed here wouldn’t exist.
