    Twilight
    Feb 26 2026
    Paul and Amy sink their teeth into Twilight, unpacking how a once-mocked teen romance became a box-office juggernaut and cultural lightning rod. They trace the adaptation saga from Paramount’s infamous “jet ski” rewrite to Catherine Hardwicke’s faithful reset at Summit, debate vampire lore and gendered critiques of romance, and decide whether Team Edward vs. Team Jacob misses the point entirely.

    Reality Bites
    Feb 19 2026
    Paul and Amy revisit Reality Bites, Ben Stiller’s Gen-X touchstone that may or may not want to be one. They discuss the film’s scrappy origins from writer Helen Childress and star-producer Winona Ryder, unpack Ethan Hawke’s slacker allure and Ben Stiller as a yuppie, and debate whether Lelaina’s rebellion was righteous or just twenty-something self-sabotage.

    Reel Confessions: Nicole Byer
    Feb 17 2026
    Paul and Amy step into the cinema confessional with Nicole Byer as she spills on being a proud talker during movies, why she prefers “dirty” character actors over glossy realism, and untangles her complicated relationship with the Fast & Furious saga.
