Transcribe →Early Access - Mini-Episode: Promising Premises
Feb 1900:32:44Tap to summarizeWhat movies were doing just fine until they hired a pesky creative team to mess it all up? Would they have been fine as a solid premise alone? I don't know the answer. I'm just the guy who writes the descriptions. Listen to the episode and find out? I'm not your mom.

Flight Risk
Jan 1501:25:56Tap to summarizeAh yes, 2025. What a year for great film. Wait, that's not what we do... The guys start the year off correctly by talking about the cream of the crap for the previous year of cinema, starting off with Mel Gibson's Flight Risk. Did Mel really need AI for a moose... and a MOTEL?! Why is the vetting process for pilots this awful? What is with that bald cap? Why in the world was Hasan played by a different voice actor and physical actor? This movie is a mess! Next week: music is the soundtrack of movies.
