I'm dying to know who wrote a column about their own spider man tweet.

John Carter

What’s the early buzz on Kevin O’Leary’s Oscar chances?

CJ Anderson

Greg proops introduced a screen of 8 1/2 last year and spent the entire time yelling about Hilary ("don’t blame me I voted for her") and calling the audience bitches for supporting Bernie

Not always but this time I immediately watched the film before listening. Dual benefit to your show, the movies are [often] great. One of so many comedic tropes I loved was the sort of "rabble rabble" troupe commentary bit that occurs so frequently; this film had to have perfected that. Also, I considered those atlas shrugged films part of the gods not dead cinematic universe, so I expected them covered eventually.

An episode on The Fountainhead and Ayn Rand would be great, but I encourage you to consider another King Vidor film, An American Romance, a 1944 studio-compromised Technicolor epic about an Czech immigrant and his family amidst the industrial and political history of the first half of the 20th century. There are a lot of subjects to discuss about it (the immigrant experience, american exeptionalism, documentary and fiction, paternalist capitalism, unions) and it's a very weird and (I think) beautiful film that acts as some sort of skeleton key for a curiously large spectrum of american auteurs (Coppola via The Godfather 2 and Tucker, the working class epics of Michael Cimino, the Wachowskis with Speed Racer, and even The Brutalist takes as much from it as from the architecture-themed The Fountainhead, notably in its use of documentary industrial footage and as an immigration narrative). That's my two cents, and as always, it's a joy to listen to the both of you.

Remember Pantsuit Nation on Facebook?

Had a heart attack last week and haven’t been able to finish this one. Thanks for the laughs and the thought-provoking film talk, boys. (I’m 50, I can call you that.) Oh, and, by the way, Ernst Lubitsch is one of Proops’s’s favorite directores. C’mon fellas, is that why you chose to review this one? Amor y paz, PTB
