It's here. The biggest film of the year. And we were blown away.
Links:
- Senaai got her wires crossed and amalgamated two documentaries when she referred to three Japanese men returning home. The first film was Paper City, actually about the firebombing on Tokyo in 1945, a few months before the atomic bomb was detonated. The other is called Hiroshima: The Aftermath. There is also this incredible article by John Hersey of the same name.
- The mockumentary we spoke about is called The War Game, which won an Oscar for Best Documentary in 1967.
- The Tweet we mentioned from Brendan Hodges (@metaplexmovies) about morality in film is here. And here is the linked article from The Atlantic: Moralism is Ruining Cultural Criticism.
- The Tweet about Barefoot Gen has been removed from Twitter, but you can read more about the animated film here.

If you're a glass-half-full kind of person, you'd say that The Gray Man is a fun time, referencing well-loved action tropes and doing it well. If you're a glass-half-empty person, well, you'd say it was a poor excuse for an action film, saved only by the elements that have already been done and to better effect in other films. We're still not sure where we stand.

We've seen it. And yes, it's as incredibly confusing as everyone says. If you don't like Senaai's rants, this won't be the podcast for you. A few things we didn't even get to talking about (spoilers below but, honestly, do you care?):- The random sequence where Victoria steals things?! - Didn't Deuteronomy get captured and then everyone else immediately forgot about it for a couple of songs, until eventually they're like, "Hey, we should do something about that!"- They get drugged?!- Why were the mice faces floating on their heads? Something was wayyy off with the tracking here. - Why are all the songs so repetitive? They just repeat the same sentence backwards! For instance, "Because Jellicles can and Jellicles do; Jellicles do and Jellicles can."- Whyyyyyy was there so much breathing?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

If you like Tarantino films, this might be a painful podcast to listen to...Similarly, if you know a lot about the Manson family, you may also be frustrated. Look, Senaai needed to do some more research before viewing this film, ok? Even though that is the one thing she hates as she believes that the information you need to know in order to understand the art should be in the art itself. Sorry in advance.

Senaai and Lonnie have been boyfriend and girlfriend for five and a half years. In that time they've watched approximately 3 million movies together. They were also watching movies a long time before they were dating - but not always the same stuff.In this new mini-series adjacent to "I Only Like You and Movies", they'll be filling in each other's film and television gaps.This week Senaai hits it out of the park again with "Gattaca". Great to see a film that is really saying something, is really about something. A lot darker than and noirish than you expect as well.

Lonnie and Senaai try to talk about the social contract but end up just talking about how people should live with their mistakes and how all babies should sign documents as soon as they're born. They also spend way too much time discussing their new imaginary friend, Bob, and review "Tickled" but don't say anything about it. It's better this way.

Senaai grumbles and whines about those idiots who can’t take five minutes to concentrate on their order while Lonnie has a hilarious story about giving his real name at a fast food place. They also review the surprisingly brilliant “Paper Towns” based on the book by Senaai’s celebrity crush, John Green. Lonnie’s celebrity crush, Corey Oates, has yet to write a book but he’s sure if and when he does, it’ll be much better than anything John could ever dream of.

Lonnie and Senaai tackle the stupid questions people throw at them daily; Lonnie would especially like it known that he is not now, nor has he ever been, in charge of the university timetable. And they review the 2013 film "Palo Alto" which they both kind of liked but both kind of didn't. Contact us at slpodcasting@gmail.com or don't whatever.

Senaai and Lonnie have had enough of rule breakers and they don't care who knows it. And they have plenty of problems with "Suicide Squad" and not all of them are Harley (although most of them are).

Lonnie finally unleashes his full and unrepentant rage at the most unlikely of subjects - choc top ice creams from the cinema. It gets brutal. And Senaai is more than a little upset at the new entry in her favourite action movie franchise, the adequate but unnecessary "Jason Bourne". We get right in there discussing the plot and everything so don't listen if you don't want to know what happens. And don't buy choc tops.

Senaai and Lonnie can't nail down one thing they hate this week so they complain about all sorts of things including Cheryl, fire drills, meeting new people, money and the new Harry Potter book. They also review the new Star Trek movie and get sidetracked by race and gender issues. Pretty clever right? We talk about a few general plot details but don't spoil the whole movie or anything.Our email is slpodcasting@gmail.com if you want to get in touch. Or don't, we don't mind.

This week Lonnie and Senaai manage to be annoyed by both Pokemon Go and people who are annoyed by Pokemon Go. They also review the startling good "Me Before You". No spoilers but we do talk about the ending of the film in vague terms so if you're wary, skip it.

Crowds. Nobody likes them. But why can't people walk properly? Lonnie and Senaai have no idea. They also review "Swiss Army Man", where Daniel Radcliffe plays a farting corpse. Or as Senaai likes to say, a fluffing corpse. (We couldn't talk about the movie without discussing plot points. Spoiler alert)

Senaai and Lonnie get riled up about Brexit and question whether people really were waiting for "Finding Dory". (This was recorded just after the Brexit result was announced, so we didn't talk about the crazy aftermath)

Lonnie dragged Senaai to the State of Origin, which they both loved despite some annoying people, and they both dragged each other to the new Independence Day movie, which they both enjoyed, even though it's a bit silly.

Senaai and Lonnie talk about all the problems in the world right now; try to figure out why old people are so weird; complain about a nosy neighbour probably named Cheryl; and review the terrific "Everybody Wants Some!!" by one of their favourite directors Richard Linklater.

Senaai and Lonnie talk about people with communication problems (definitely never them); complain about internet service providers and leaky taps; and review the amazing "Hunt For The Wilderpeople" while marvelling at everything Rhys Darby does.

Senaai and Lonnie discuss annoyingly overly friendly people, reminisce about a lovely (probably deceased) old man named Ian and review the pretty okay "Money Monster".
