Hear our thoughts on the DC Extended Universe as we learn that Wonder Women 3 is no longer moving forward. Additionally, we talk about the Sundance 2023 lineup and the directorial debut of Taylor Swift. As we roll into Oscar season, we discuss the current front runners for Best Picture, Actor, and Actress. Making Sense of Movies has you covered so you don't miss any of the important movie news.2022-12-1351 minmakingsenseofmoviesmakingsenseofmoviesCon Artist MoviesAfter a short hiatus, Clare and Alaina are back to explore the world of trickery, scamming, and disguises. You guessed it- we’re diving into the best movies about con artists. A con- artist is a person who cheats or tricks others by persuading them to believe something that isn't true. Some films are about real-life con artists, like Lee Israel (Can You Ever Forgive Me?), who forged more than 400 letters from deceased writers and actors. We also talk about Frank Abagnale Jr (Catch Me If You Can), known for 2.5 million dollars worth of check forgeries and impersonating a Pan Am...2022-11-071h 20makingsenseofmoviesmakingsenseofmoviesObsession With Perfection Movies, RankedIn this latest episode of Making Sense of Movies, Clare and Alaina discuss movies about obsession. Since this can be a broad category, we specifically focus on characters obsessed with being the best at their profession or personal project. Hear us talk about the juggernauts of this category, Whiplash, and Black Swan. We compare the journeys between the two protagonists, focusing on the abuse of power, social isolation, and descent into insanity. When we meet Nina (Black Swan) and Andrew (Whiplash) they’re both fighting upward to prove themselves to a person of seniority within their prospective fields. In the ot...2022-07-311h 47makingsenseofmoviesmakingsenseofmoviesSurvival MoviesIn this latest episode, we focus on the oldest form of conflict: humanity vs the natural world. These stories have similar beats, like surviving on limited resources, conflict over strategy, and acclimating to harsh weather. We examine what each movie does to rise to the top within the survival genre. Some focus on realism as we see in Alive (1993) and Meek's Cutoff (2010), which are inspired by real-life events. On the flip side, Crawl (2019) shows student-athlete Haley Keller out-swim alligators (after being bitten numerous times) during a category 5 hurricane. While Haley shows herself to be an “apex predator” we also meet char...2022-05-161h 11makingsenseofmoviesmakingsenseofmovies2022 Oscars- Reactions To The Nominations And Winner PredictionsClare and Alaina make sense of the Oscar nominations!! With less then a week away from the award show, the race is between CODA and Power of the Dog for best picture. Come listen to us speculate over what will win, and remorse over Denis Villeneuve not being nominated for best director. We also discuss ABC’s decision not to present 8 awards during this year's live broadcast. While some categories like supporting actress and visual effects have locked wins, this year is particularly difficult to predict in categories like best actress, best film editing, and screenplay.

In this fabulous episode, we discuss classics like Cheetah Girls, High School Musical 2, and Wendy Wu. Listen to us evaluate the central friend/family dynamics within each movie. We found that HSM2’s gave secondary characters more room to breathe in a less Troy and Gabrilla focused movie. In Wendy Wu, we were able to appreciate the cultural impact Shen had on each member of the Wu family. Finally, in Cheetah Girls, we questioned why Aqua’s character arc is being brave enough to take the subway, whil...2022-02-121h 41makingsenseofmoviesmakingsenseofmoviesTop 5 Movies Of 2021, RankedAs the year comes to an end, Clare and Alaina reflect on the best movies that have been released in 2021. We also take time to assess how Covid-19 has impacted the box office this year. Despite steady covid numbers, we saw movies like Spider-Man: No Way Home and Shang-Chi top the box office. This is also a year that indicates streaming and the theater-going experience can coexist. As for the quality of movies, Clare and Alaina agree that it's been an incredible movie year. With so many good movies out, Clare and Alaina have no movies that overlap in their...2022-01-0155 minmakingsenseofmoviesmakingsenseofmoviesClassic Literature As Teen MoviesOne reason classic literature is taught in high school is because of their literary themes that have withstood the test of time. While it may be hard to relate to stories of war or mythical prophecies, everyone can still relate to themes of love, coming of age, and survival (especially in high school). This is why classic literature has become such a popular sub-genre within teen movies. In this episode, Clare and Alaina discuss this sub-genre and break down which movies have become classics in their own right, and which ones may have Shakespeare rolling in his grave. While some...2021-12-201h 59Girl We Gotta TalkGirl We Gotta TalkKenny Braasch | Finding Love in ParadiseIn today's episode, Bachelor in Paradise's Kenny Braasch joins me to chat about his experience on the show!

Kenny opens up on why ultimately Mari was the one for him when he knew he wanted to propose, and what's next for the...2021-11-1036 minmakingsenseofmoviesmakingsenseofmoviesWerewolf MoviesFables of human-to-wolf transformations can be found in numerous parts of the world. The first known record of these stories is the Epic of Gilgamesh, published in 2100 BC. These creatures go by a variation of names, like wolf man, lycanthrope, and the most commonly known… werewolf. In this haunted Halloween episode, Clare and Alaina discuss the classic and obscure werewolf movies that have hit the silver screen. Come hear our thoughts on which human to wolf transformation is the most agonizing to watch.

Love is hard to find. Sometimes, love finds you when you least expect it...like when you buy an AI virtual assistant or a sex doll that you buy online. Listen to us as we break down each romance, and which couples get our approval. In addition to breaking down the relationships, we also discuss worldbuilding within the movie Her. Instead of being invested in the relationship, we were too busy thinking about the malevolent ways the technology could be used. Especially how creepy it is that Samantha...2021-09-231h 16makingsenseofmoviesmakingsenseofmoviesThe Green Knight ReviewThe Green Knight (2021) directed by David Lowery is an adaptation of the 14th-century poem Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. The visuals, costumes, sets, and performance are all exceptional. While everything is great on a technical level, Clare and Alaina agree that all the movie's loose ends make for an unsatisfying ending. The Green Knight trusted its audience to know specific details about Arthurian history in order to understand the movies major themes. Don't worry though, we’re here to give you a history lesson on everything you need to know about the virtues of a knight.

Take Marvel, Star Wars, and Jurassic World for example- all some of the highest-grossing films of all time. Studios need these movies like these to fund smaller projects within their company. Today, however, we’re here to shine some light on the movies that failed to get their sequels greenlit. Clare and Alaina discuss why these chosen movies didn’t connect with audience members, and which of these movies deserve a shot at redemption.

Come listen to us break down the major categories, and do a lot of complaining about Mank (seriously though, who liked this movie?!?). Besides Mank nominations, there isn’t much to complain about. The categories this year are jam-packed with talent, and artists at peak performance. Major stand-outs for us this year include Riz Ahmed's nomination in Sound of Metal, Maria Bakalova in Borat Subsequent MovieFilm, and Chloe Zhao for Nomadland.

From the simple things in life, like needing a shoulder to cry on, to the times you need someone to passionately kiss before you drive a car over a canyon edge. In this episode, Clare and Alaina discuss each character's past and motivations, and why they’re so compatible with their counterparts. There’s a lot of characters we go over (14) so be warned, this is a long episode. We also take some time to discuss how the cinematography adds to these character-driven stories.

The film revolves around 20-year-old Sebastian as he takes hostages at a news station in an attempt to broadcast his message live on TV. Not only did Clare and Alaina have the opportunity to (virtually) be at the world premiere, but the two also participated in a Q+A with Jakub Piątek, and Bartosz Bielenia. Here is Clare and Alaina’s full review of the film. Intro and outro music: Kevin MacLeod. "Dark Hallway". 20082021-02-0129 minmakingsenseofmoviesmakingsenseofmoviesPsychological ThrillersPsychological Thrillers evoke a sense of suspense through its focus on the unstable emotions of characters and the devolution of the human mind. These movies often have darker themes and are accompanied by sadistic characters. While these movies can be difficult to watch, we continue watching, hoping for a glimpse into the mind of cannibals and psychopaths. It is in these movies that we also watch the protagonists slowly unraveled by those they’d least expect. In this episode, Clare and Alaina discuss the early beginnings of this genre as well as some of the more recent Psychological Thrillers releases. Jo...2021-01-271h 12makingsenseofmoviesmakingsenseofmoviesSuperhero MoviesTo end the year of 2020, Clare and Alaina discuss the most successful Hollywood genre: superhero movies. For the past few years, superhero movies have driven the largest audiences to theaters and generated the most box office revenue. In this latest episode, we discuss elements of a good action sequence, compelling villains, and why Batman and Robin is a top tier superhero movie...a very ice-olated opinion (as Mr.Freeze might say). We also delve into the cultural significance these movies have on our society. Also stick around for Alaina’s conspiracy theories on Spider-Man 2.

Do you like your protagonist to wear tweed coats while they explain intricate equations to side characters (only done so the audience can keep up with what's going on)? If you answered yes to either of those questions- we’ve got the right group of movies for you. The good news is, you don’t need to know anything about Additive Number Theory, quantum mechanics, or Integer Partitions to enjoy these movies about math geniuses.

These are movies sure to induce “claus”trophobia because we’re talking holiday horror movies. Some of the movies discussed have been able to transcend the genre, like Black Christmas, which is known as one of the great slasher films of all time. We also go over lesser-known movies like Thankskilling, about a talking Thanksgiving turkey on a killing spree (saying this is a bad movie would be an understatement). We’re Ho Ho H...2020-11-101h 09makingsenseofmoviesmakingsenseofmoviesMusicalsClare and Alaina make sense of 5 musicals. Just like how the pocket knife is a tool of many uses, songs in musicals are multi-purposeful. Some musicals use song to drive the plot, and for characters to express emotions too powerful for talking. Other musicals may use songs in a more serious matter, like to reflect the major themes of the film. And then there's the 10 minute long Broadway Melody scene from Singing in the Rain, which says “f*ck it! Let's go big and blow a fifth of the budget”. We can't be one to judge though, as we spend 1/3rd o...2020-10-051h 11makingsenseofmoviesmakingsenseofmoviesDisney Channel Original MoviesNothing screams nostalgia more than Disney Original Movies (aka, movies released on the Disney Channel, and not shown in theaters).

While these are both necessary elements, characters and story fall apart without a strong world to bind them together. In this latest installation of Making Sense of Movies, Clare and Alaina discuss worldbuilding within five different movies. Some of the movies discussed are science fiction, the essential world building genre. These movies have created worlds with a rich and mysterious history. Other movies that made the list go about their worldbuilding in a more subtle, but equally powerful way.

And everyone knows there’s no better pick-me-up than watching Tom Cruise fly helicopters and jump out of airplanes for the sake of cinema. Listen to us break down the action sequences of these movies, and our opinions on what makes for a compelling hero.

Oh My! Clare and Alaina discuss five apocalypse movies. Some of these movies take a more serious route, like dealing with mental health issues in the midst of the world ending, and dissecting the science behind viruses. Other apocalypse movies take themselves less seriously. For example, in one movie adults take a more “f*ck the rules” approach to the world ending and give toddlers alcohol. Despite the tonal difference between these movies, all use sound editing and cinematography to build a sense of dread, tension, and unease. We rank these movies in order from most...2020-04-191h 01makingsenseofmoviesmakingsenseofmoviesUpdateHey cool cats and kittens!, this is a Making Sense of Movies Update!

Some of these movies left us cheering that the couple doesn't end up together, while others left us in tears. Some of these movies are definitely hard to get through, given the amount of raw emotion that comes as a side effect to love. In this episode, the couples break up for a broad range of reasons, like historical laws forbidding same-sex relationships, toxic relationships, and giving up love in order to save jazz.

While all of these movies have elements of shock, they use those elements to further progress deeper themes of social class, capitalism, and loss of community.

While we both love the Oscars because of its celebration of movies, there are still many flaws within the system that prevent each movie from being given an equal chance at getting nominated.

This genre is extremely broad- coexisting among action movies, musicals, and erotic dramas alike. While some of the movies on our list have been cemented in time as cult classics, others have been poorly received by critics and audience members (both at the time of theatrical release, and today).
