Episode 154: Our favorite movies of 2021/'Belle' (2022)

Regina returns to the show to talk about her favorite movies from 2021. Since she has seen almost all of the movie we have covered, she was able to slide right on it. Little did we know she would pick a movie that was on someone's least favorite list last week. We also talk about the anime Belle. The film was a huge hit on the festival circuit and in its native Japan. But the real question is, did WE like it?

We start the show with a talk about A24 and how some people are willing to give them a pass. This leads to a conversation about The Witch before a talk about the newest trailer from A24. From director Ti West, X is about an adult film crew who get in for more than they bargained for. We talk about West's previous works, the look of the film and whether the trailer reveals too much.

Inspired by Beauty and the Beast, Belle is the story of an shy high schooler named Suzu. When she enters the virtual world U, she becomes a talented idol known as Belle. We compare the anime to the source material, ruminate about love, and question the film's dark twist.

We are finally ready to put 2021 to close with a talk about some of our favorite movies from last year. Some of the picks are expected, some of them you can guess, but one of them was mentioned on last week's show about least favorite movies of 2021. We also discuss grown up teen sex comedies and talk about how twist endings are overrated.
