Cinema Span"3:10 to Yuma" & "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford" w/ Daniel King and Quinn ShieldsAh, to be an outlaw in the wild west. Got nothing but a crew to back you up. Like really nothing. As one my favorite criminals Neil McCauley once said, "Don't let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner." They were living this life. These guys slept outside and had like one outfit. No wonder they were desperate for some cash. Crazy that capitalism was what got them all in the end.

2023-05-221h 13Cinema Span”Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End” and ”Spider-Man 3” with Adelaide Bass, AJ Boulund, and Evan RidpathThis episode we cover the end of two iconic 2000's blockbuster franchises, Spider-Man and The Pirates of the Carribbean. Both entries were "the black sheep" of their respective trilogies at the time, and yet they're probably better than we give them credit for. It just goes to show how low the bar really got with Pirates 4&5 as well as the Amazing Spider-Man and MCU reboots. Into the Spider-Verse slaps though.

Real life Bratz doll Kat Phan (@Sugarbrushh) joins the podcast to break down what made the Bratz dolls so iconic. Then, real life stoner Louis talks about Smiley Face for a half hour without really saying anything of substance, which is probably what Anna Farris' character would do in the same circumstance.
