Episode 60 - "Maybe it's actually the RIGHT time to be talking about 'Joker'!"

This episode is kinda heavily influenced by every 2019 film nerd’s favourite thing: “discourse”. Robert and Jason touch on the recent remarks by New Hollywood directors about Marvel movies, then segue into films as diverse as PARASITE, FORD V FERRARI, and JOKER. Then we close out the episode with some chatter on the Robert Pattinson BATMAN project, as well as a quick review of Steven Soderbergh’s Netflix release THE LAUNDROMAT.
