Directors Advocate
One comic fanatic, One movie fanatic, and a certified Weeb watch and review movies for your entertainment. Recorded and produced by the Brighton High School Podcast Club
Sometimes classics deserve to be remade, and sometimes they're too good not to have a sequel. Home Sweet Home Alone is neither of these things, so give yourself the gift of a good Christmas movie (like the Star Wars Holiday Special) this holiday season as we complain endlessly about the British flaws of this "motion picture.
Today we discuss the feline fantasy that is cats. This work of art recently received a film adaptation and boy did we have something to say about. Get ready for some purrfect puns;)
Rick Riordan is an incredibly popular mythological fantasy author, and his books sold well enough that 20th Century decided to make a movie adaptation. Unfortunately, 20th Century were the ones that made said adaptation.
We didn’t think this day would ever come. Seriously, we had to buy a DVD for this, but we actually were able to watch and review the most infamous video game movie of all time, Super Mario Bruddas. Monkey!
Dune: incredible sci-fi fantasy novel, not-quite-as incredible movie adaptation (at least until the 2021 one comes out!). Join us, and our first guest who says more than two sentences, as we explore this strange, sad, bad-special-effect, movie! Guest star Alex Carlyle.
Justice League. The most controversial DCEU movie (besides WW84), with DC/movie fans on one side, and everyone else on the other. Guess what side we’re on.
In the second episode of our Snyderbration, we talk about Batman V. Superman (and confuse Conner in the meantime, comics lore is stupid sometimes). Say it with us: MARTHAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!
The Snyder Cut releases today, which is a cause of celebration for DC fans everywhere! Since at least some of us fall under that category, we’ve decided to join in by reviewing the Snyder trilogy, AKA Man of Steel, Batman V. Superman, and Justice League (the sad one). In the first episode, we talk about Zack-y boy’s first movie in the DCEU, Man of Steel.
After finishing off the Will Smith Chronicles with After Earth, we needed a palette cleanser, so for this episode of Director’s Advocate, we talk about a movie that’s critically bad but actually good: Tron: Legacy.
In the most emotionally hollowing episode so far, we finish off the Will Smith Chronicles by talking about the many, many flaws in M. Night Skiddly-bop’s After Earth, the worst movie that we’ve talked about so far.
In this episode of Director’s Advocate, we’re back to the Will Smith Chronicles this week, as we talk about the superhero-genre deconstruction that is the movie Hancock.
We finally did it! We disagreed on a movie! In this episode of Director’s Advocate, we take a break from the tragedy that is known as the Will Smith Chronicles and tackle The Amazing Spiderman
Scapegoating Rob Letterman has never been so heavy-handed as we fillet Shark Tale for this episode of Director’s Advocate and the second installment of the Will Smith Chronicles.
In this episode of Director’s Advocate we tackle the good and bad qualities of the movie Suicide Squad as part of our Will Smith Chronicles.
