Movies! Stars! Bad corporate activations! Specific and annoying logistical challenges! In a normal year, the Sundance Film Festival has everything Carl, Eitan and guest Christina Troitino could ever want. Sundance is the first big event of every film year, and even a pandemic couldn’t stop the festival from dominating the cultural conversation. The three recap the 2021 festival while also providing broader context for why Sundance still matters to Hollywood. They also share some of their favorite Sundance stories and experiences.
In news this week, Eitan, Carl and Christina review the mixed bag of Golden Globe nominations, assign a valuation to the Gamestop short squeeze, and reckon with Marvel’s multiverse future.
The main topic starts at (*sigh*) 37:17 this week.
