The Projectors

SOME BULLSHIT TOMORROW is the theme and it’s all about dystopian futures and perhaps familiar places of history, altered, from before their time. Today’s discussion is a time capsule of a corner of a…

How can you not sit down with a couple of 80’s heavy hitters for our month’s dystopian theme “SOME BULLSHIT TOMORROW”? Especially the one we’re discussing in this episode. This privatized authoritari…

When it’s SOME BULLSHIT TOMORROW your dystopia can manifest in many forms and styles. Maybe your megacity is cold and logical, devoid of love and sorrow, but you got some level three seductress dime …

It’s dystopian future month all August and some futures seem a little too close for comfort. This movie is about the year 2022. It came out in 2013. Now it’s 2024 and there’s no day devoted to mass k…

We’re getting deep into some strange futures all month. SOME BULLSHIT TOMORROW is the perfect follow up to last month’s war movie theme but is it war that gave us the strange future we’re seeing in t…

We’re in the future all month long for August’s theme that we’ve dubbed “SOME BULLSHIT TOMORROW” and so far we’re 2 for 2 on post nuclear war societies. Every Monday (mostly) is a vintage selection (…

Glory & Propaganda is done and now we must head into the future and then back to the present to prevent the future. New month, new theme but war still lingers and this future is as bleak as they come…

We’re doubling down this week on selections for our overarching year’s theme called “A DREARY YEAR OF LARS VON TRIER”. By the end of what is already a complete shithole year, we will have discussed a…

We took some time off to deep dive into some topics but now we’ve returned to this year’s overarching theme in which we discuss a dozen Lars von Trier movies before it’s all said and done. Could this…

And so we say goodbye to war movies this month. GLORY & PROPAGANDA comes to an end and Angela won’t miss it but jokes on her because next month’s topic is dystopian futures. The aftermath of GLORY & …

No shortage of atrocities in this month’s theme we’re calling GLORY & PROPAGANDA and so we dive into another brutal event in a movie that presents itself in an animated hybrid documentary style. Isra…

For GLORY & PROPAGANDA this month we already discussed a Vietnam war movie but why not discuss a Korean War movie that is pretty much about the Vietnam War? Today’s discussion is amongst our most com…

We’re approaching the end of July’s theme of GLORY & PROPAGANDA. How appropriate that this month has men carrying guns in every discussion. When you’re a French solider in “The Great War” you gotta k…

GLORY & PROPAGANDA means war movies all month long and there isn’t very many war flicks about the first gulf war. “Three Kings” is one you might think of immediately. On the other hand it’s an intere…

For the war movies we’re discussing in this month’s theme that we’re calling “GLORY & PROPAGANDA” one person’s inspiring tale of right and might can be, to another person, a study in the horrors of p…

CORRECTION: This film is based on the writings of Saddi Yacef NOT Franco Solinas the screenwriter.

It’s GLORY & PROPAGANDA all month for our theme and let me ask you a question…are you ready for a re…

War movies are happening all month in a theme we call GLORY & PROPAGANDA and we wrap up WW2 week with a tearjerker anime. You can call what the U.S. did in Japan brutal, we won’t deny that, but boy d…

WARNING: A LOT OF TALK ABOUT SEXUAL VIOLENCE AND GENERAL INHUMANITY. Shit can get rough during wartime. Cruelty can rear its ugly head and we get a lot of that during our war-movie themed month we’re…

July is GLORY & PROPAGANDA!!! That means war movies all month long and we’re in the middle of WW2 week with our very first Quentin Tarantino film discussion that was very likely inspired by our Monda…

This month is GLORY & PROPAGANDA for our theme. It’s WW 2 week and we’re all over the globe. Western exceptionalism may downplay Soviet contributions to art but they made some pretty fantastic movies…
