It's the end of this a'Mazin month with the boys watching The Huntsman Winter's War. A prequel/sequel to Snow White and The Huntsman, but without the snow white part (Kristen Stewart). Mazin apparently had a lot of fun writing a film filled with knock off fairy tale tropes, awful goblin designs and dwarf jokes about their women-folk's appearance. Chris Hemsworth and Jessica Chastain star in this movie where also Charlize Theron is supposed to appear at some point considering how large she looms in the poster.Will the boys find this magical land charming or a slog to get through?Don't forget to join our Discord for movie nights and additional podcast discussions!Check out https://shop.theotherhalfpodcast.com/ to help support the show and get your room some cool art!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Hungover from Canada month we try another dubiously themed month (we're addicted!!). The creator of Chernobyl and The Last of Us (the show not the game!), Craig Mazin, has a very interesting filmography and we thought it was the right time to examine it. Welcome to Dog days of Mazin! We kick off the month with a rough one y'all. The Hangover III. The biggest cash grab on a franchise that has no right to last as long as it did. But Mazin worked on both Hangover III and Hangover II, which are the lowest rated Hangover movies, must I remind you. I remember at least thinking the plot was interesting in the first hangover, but will this one also have a compelling plotline? Because we know the humor is going to age like milk.Don't forget to join our Discord for movie nights and additional podcast discussions!Check out https://shop.theotherhalfpodcast.com/ to help support the show and get your room some cool art!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This week on The Other Half, we’re closing out our annual Canada Month series with our wonderful friend Madison to tackle 2013's Dallas Buyers Club. A movie that qualifies for our Canadian theme solely because its late, great director, Jean-Marc Vallée, came from Quebec!Join us as we break down a movie that starts with Matthew McConaughey watching bull riding during a rodeo hookup(?!), collapsing into a pile of nudie magazines, and reacting to a 30-day terminal AIDS diagnosis by immediately doing lines of coke and drinking whiskey in the dark. What a way to set up a character.Along the way, we dive deep into Jean-Marc Vallée’s naturalistic camera style and ear-ringing sound design, obsess over Griffin Dunne playing a hippie clinic doctor and compare the film's Hollywood narrative to real-life Wikipedia history. Pour yourself a drink, grab some of your favorite "vitamins", and let's find out more about the DBC.Don't forget to join our Discord for movie nights and additional podcast discussions!Check out https://shop.theotherhalfpodcast.com/ to help support the show and get your room some cool art!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This week on The Other Half, Mike and Ethan near the finish line of Canada Month by tackling the cult classic sports comedy Goon.Join us as we navigate an opening ten minutes completely derailed by the modern redefinition of "gooning" and a strong warning for anyone Googling the name of this movie without context.I wish we could hire a goon to take out Jay Baruchel’s insufferable edge lord character.

Okay let's get a little timely, a little Canadian and a little Letterboxy, with Blue Heron. A relatively new director, Sophy Romvari, puts out a semi-auto biographical banger about growing up with a "strange" sibling. The movie plays with memory, time and audience perspective an a refreshing and controlled way. This movie blew up on Letterboxed in a big way and it's Canadian, so it felt like a good chance of pace from the previous films we did.The movie is about a Hungarian immigrant family with the POV being 8-year-old Sasha and her adult self reflecting on those memories. What's real and what's not real? That's the question.Don't forget to join our Discord for movie nights and additional podcast discussions!Check out https://shop.theotherhalfpodcast.com/ to help support the show and get your room some cool art!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
