Mike Schulz, Dave Levora, Darren Pitra, movies, discussion of. That’s the set-up. That’s what they do. That’s what’s done. We’ll let you know if they decide to play off it (introduce a guest speaker, say) or outright abandon it (the three opt to perform scenes out of Samuel Beckett’s Play, for instance).

Mike Schulz discusses cinematic matters with Dave Levora and Darren Pitra. Levora believes Twisters could have used more twisters than it gave its audience. That was last week. This week’s fare pales in comparison:

Mike Schulz discusses all things movie with Dave Levora and Darren Pitra. The haul promises to be pretty light in the forthcoming weeks, as today’s catch shows. Levora marvels over Inside Out 2 having become the best-selling animated film of all time, with $1.465 billion (and counting) on a $200 million budget. We’re still halfway through the year, though, so who knows if IO2 will close out 2024 as the top dog.

Mike Schulz talks with Dave Levora and Darren Pitra about his gratitude that Inside Out 2 is still going great guns at the box office. The film’s animated depiction of a panic attack has drawn plaudits from people who suffer from panic attacks, who say it speaks fairly accurately to their experience (https://www.nytimes.com/2024/06/23/movies/inside-out-anxiety-adults.html).

The movies he’s seen were:

Mike Schulz talks with Dave Levora and Darren Pitra about the films he’s watched, the first official day of summer, and today being the 49th anniversary of the release of Jaws — the latter which, incidentally, coincided with a family health scare. Happily, Schulz’s mother wasn’t bitten by a shark. Also, The Goonies is playing this weekend at The Last Picture House, 39 years after the film’s release. If you wish to relive a bit of your childhood, then you might consider some other film for that. Anyhow. Onward.
