Cinema Fix
Are you a movie addict? Do you get the shakes if you're not at the theater every weekend? Does your spirit long for cinematic enlightenment? If so, don't worry. We're here to help you get your fix. Join Andrew and Monica every week for the purest discussion and in-depth analysis of the latest mainstream and blockbuster films. Don't want to be spoiled? No problem! Each episode is split into two separate segments. The first is just a 10-minute general discussion letting you know whether or not a movie is worth your hard-earned cash. The second is when they dive deep into spoiler territory and really pick apart what does and doesn't work at both a craft and thematic level. Come on, you know you want it. And the best part is, this drug is legal.
