Hot Date with Dan and VickySix Souls (Episode 206) - Hot Date with Dan and VickyOriginally titled Shelter and produced independently in 2010 with Swedish filmmakers Måns Mårlind and Björn Stein co-directing, the Julianne Moore starring Six Souls, written by Identity's Michael Cooney, was eventually purchased by the Weinstein Company under their Radius banner. But the Weinsteins were in the midst of serious financial woes in 2010 after the failure of Nine and many of their acquisitions ended up in distribution turnaround. Six Souls would eventually come out in 2013 as a day and date VOD and theatrical release. It got very little attention and seemed a strange detour on Moore's otherwise stellar career path. 2025-03-051h 29
人生塗鴉牆EP97MBTI(Vicky是INTJ、Ashley是INFJ)這幾年韓流發威，連帶在韓劇韓綜中提到的MBTI，也被越來越多人所熟悉。根據維基網站所述【是一種人格類型評量工具，由卡爾·榮格的類型理論發展而來，表明人們天生在感知和決策的方式上存在不同心理偏好其理論中最淺顯的部分是四組相反的先天偏好：內向與外向（Introversion-Extraversion[i]）、實感與直覺（Sensing-iNtuition）、思考與情感（Thinking-Feeling）、判斷與感知（Judging-Perceiving），四組偏好可組成16種穩定的人格類型】。由於榮格大師的版本設計比較難，目前普遍所使用的版本【是由兩名美國人——凱薩琳·庫克·布里格斯和她的女兒伊莎貝爾·布里格斯·邁爾斯所建構】。
如果說德國人喜歡聊天氣、日本人喜歡聊血型、台灣人喜歡聊星座，那韓國人喜愛的MBTI也可以做為我們聊天與認識自己的一項新的統計分析。雖然只有四大性格指標，取各自英文字的第一個字母代表，經過排列組合成為16種主人格類型分析包含(ISTJ、ISFJ、INFJ、INTJ、ISTP、ISFP、INFP、INTP、ESTP、ESFP、ENFP、ENTP、ESTJ、ESFJ、ENFJ、ENTJ)；先從內向外向先分I人或E人大類，再劃分實感或直覺的S或N，第三步劃分思考與情感的T或F，最後一步劃分判斷與感知的J或P。
我們兩姊妹測試後，Vicky是INTJ，Ashley是INFJ。簡單地說我們是內向/直覺/判斷型人格，差別在Vicky是思考型，Ashley是情感型。對於從小就很愛說話聊天的Vicky來說，自己測試出i型人格，差點以為自己做錯哪道堤造成這奇怪的結果，直到聽到吳淡如院長在她Podcast節目聊到她也是INTJ類型時，她的解釋是她身為i人，可以自己處的很好，不會覺得孤單，會很自己相處得很好，Vicky才理解自己也的確如此。謝謝大家收聽本集更精彩內容，希望這個測驗能讓大家更了解自己。

The film, starring many first time actors and shot for under a week on a $35,000 budget, was the brain child of cinematographer Michael Goi. Goi was eager to make a cautionary tale on the dangers of online predators and so impressed Anchor Bay Films they gave the movie, shot in 2008, a small theatrical release in 2011. Starring Amber Perkins and Rachel Quinn, Megan is Missing has divided critics - some applauding it's unflinching look at the dangers of being a teen in the internet age and others calling it...2024-12-061h 16Hot Date with Dan and VickyTop Ten Directorial Debuts (Episode 200) - Hot Date with Dan and VickyOur 200th Episode! 200 episodes of Hot Dates and Hot Takes on some of the weirdest, most beautiful and just plain bad movies.

In 1978's The Inglorious Bastards, Castellari uses all the staples of Italian 70's schlock cinema (boobs, blood and bad dubbing) to great effect in this rousing and silly war film.

Hot Date with Dan and VickyDr. Jekyll And Sister Hyde (Episode 143) Hot Date with Dan and VickyIn the early 70's Hammer Studios, Britain's premier production house for horror and fantasy films, was at a crossroads. The Hammer name connoted class, style and a certain elegance but the new wave of horror was grittier and more explicit. Playing against The Exorcist and Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Hammer films could almost appear quaint. So Hammer pivoted and started making films like 1972's Dr. Jekyll and Sister Hyde in response. Still using trained British talent and adapting classic texts, this new period for Hammer saw a push towards more nudity (mostly female) and more visceral violence. Dr. Jekyll and Sister Hyde...2022-02-041h 28
