Forbidden Love

It’s finally here… All of our thoughts on the entire history of Black Mirror collected into one episode. Hailing from the glory of the Channel 4 era and trickling down to the hit-or-miss Hollywoodification of the more recent seasons, join us as we dive deep into the current state of Black Mirror as well as our predictions (and suggestions) for its future. - - - - - - - - Follow our socials!

Has life become so dark that there's nothing Black Mirror can do to scare us anymore? Has the show become too "American-ised" for Brits to relate to it? What will the future of Black Mirror look like? These are just some of the questions we try to answer in our review and ranking of Black Mirror Season 6. - - - - - - - - Follow our socials!

Need something to watch this Pride Month or just a Friday night movie? We’ve got you covered. The best part? None of them will make you cry! Well…a couple might, but not in the way LGBTQ+ films usually do. This Pride Month, we wanted to draw attention to “feel good” queer movies that encapsulate the love, acceptance and safety we all deserve Films mentioned in this episode: The Handmaiden (2016) But I’m A Cheerleader (1999) Shiva Baby (2021) All About My Mother (1999) FanFik (2023) Pride (2014) And stick around for a few honourable mentions! - - - - - - - - Follow our socials!

For our first episode in two months (), we’ve come back with a bit of a heavy one…mental health representation in horror. Starting with Scream 6 (2023) and working our way back to Psycho (1960), we talk about the negative effects certain representations of mental health in horror films have had. We’re not mental health experts but two avid horror fans who believe this is an important conversation. While movies of the past can’t be (and shouldn’t always be) erased, what responsibility does the film industry need to shoulder when it comes to the representation of mental health in horror? Content warning: discussion of mental health and some specific mental health conditions (relative to their portrayal in certain films) Films/TV shows mentioned in this episode: Scream VI (2023) Split (2016) American Horror Story: Asylum (2011) Black Swan (2010) One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975) Psycho (1960)

Did we ever tell you about the time we went to a My Chemical Concert and danisnotonfire was there? Yeah, we know that sounds like the plot of fanfiction but that is only one part of what we get into in this episode. Honestly, it would be impossible to cover everything that falls under ‘fandom.’ Instead, we’ve done our best to separate our personal experience and knowledge of fandom into four (mostly) easy-to-consume pillars.

The poorly drawn Titan marks are back and so is our fangirling over the final chapters of Attack on Titan. We really are in the end game now boys, and we have some thoughts on how things are going to end…  Let’s unpack the first two chapters of the AOT final. - - - - - - - -  Follow our socials!

What films come to mind when you think of ‘Forbidden Love?’ Romeo & Juliet. Titanic. Call Me By Your Name. Lolita. These are the obvious answers but for this episode, we explore how Forbidden Love is about getting freaky…literally.  The three films that encapsulate Forbidden Love to us are The Shape of Water, Bones and All and Titane. From romance to human connection to trauma - we talk about the beautiful and ugly sides of love (as well as how the two are not mutually exclusive).  CONTENT WARNING: Discussions of generational trauma and sexual assault  - - - - - - - -   Follow our socials!  Twitter: https://twitter.com/wnoisepodcast   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wnoisepodcast/   TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@wnoisepodcast

Can you believe it’s only February and we’ve already been fed some of the most delicious horror films?  Anyone who’s been listening to us for a while knows that we are absolute horror fanatics. Usually, we wait until Halloween to start denying we’re a horror podcast while uploading horror episode after horror episode…but our horror overlords have decreed that 2023 is the year we can deny it no longer…  SKINAMARINK has left us excited for and questioning what could be next for the horror genre. Whether you loved the film or hated it, there is no doubt that it has taken its place in horror history.  We spent this episode unpacking exactly why SKINAMARINK is social media’s new sleep paralysis demon.

What do period dramas, k-dramas and animes have in common? They all have that sweet, sweet subtext that makes us go wild. In this year’s Valentine’s Day minisode, we challenge that physical affection is not the most intimate two (or more) human beings can be. A glance across the room, the brief brush of a hand or even sharing a piece of toast are all hotter than what you might get up to in the bedroom. Disagree? Hear us out…

We’re living in the best timeline because #sixseasonsandamovie is FINALLY coming true. It’s got us feeling all nostalgic but just like most things from 2000s and 2010s, we’ve been hit with childhood-shattering questions… How has Community aged, is it everything we remember, what place could the movie possibly have in 2023?  Two die-hard fans get a heavy dose of reality as they try to answer these questions by talking about a show that went a long way into shaping the people they are today.  Join us as we talk about the good, the bad and the misogyny of Community.  - - - - - - - - Follow our socials!
