On The Subject: Of Cinema v. "Cinema"

This year on the podcast we bring up our thoughts up on film with a thesis from Malcolm. This with be how we look at films through out the episodes and cover new movies as well as old.

Thesis:

Cinema vs. "Cinema" and the impact of the blockbuster in the modern era. Basically, what do you consider film or "just entertainment"? Where is that line? Consider all the genre and what makes a movie better than another or higher art than another? We plan to break that down and decide for ourselves.

We will also have criteria and a rating system. Each host will be bringing in their own films to debate and we will figure this out!

CWC- Writer, Comedian and Community Organizer Alex Kack

This episodes creator is a stand-up comedian and a stand up human. He co-produces a comedy show called Laughing Liberally. He is also a writer you can see his work on The Bull Moose Review Blog and he is organizer for  The Peoples  Defense Initiative here in Tucson AZ. His work includes the Tucson Families Free Together and is apart of the campaign to make Tucson a sanctuary city. But you might simply know him as Greenshirtguy Alex ... Welcome to the show.

Discussion

  • Tucson Families Free and Together

    • Sanctuary City would mean a place people no longer get asked to show papers or harassed about immigrant status in, Schools, Hospitals, work place and by the police,

    • The organization responsible for training local police teaches that it is okay to rely on unfounded racial stereotypes to determine whether a person might be undocumented. For example, a person may be assumed to be undocumented if they don’t speak English, if they dresses a certain way, or if they don’t have a place to live. In its current policy, Tucson fully embraces this problematic guidance, even though portions of it are likely unconstitutional. Sanctuary in Tucson would end this form of race-based policing. Sec. 17-83(h) & (i).

  • The Bullmoose Review

    • The Bull Moose Review publishes progressive opinion and discussion. We are not journalists nor do we make any claim to be an unbiased news source.

    • What you will find here is analysis of current events, political occurrences and history as well as social and cultural trends.

On The Subject: Of The Legacy of The Matrix

This Year marks the 20th anniversary of the Matrix! We talk a lot on this podcast about the impact a film has and how that changes or influences other films over time. We are plugging in one more time to look how the past 20 years have be changes by The Matrix Franchise and whats to come for this universe.

The fourth Matrix film has been announced so we give you our predictions and speculation on how the franchise might continue plus some fun games!

The Matrix was a valuable reminder that brawn and brains don’t have to be mutually exclusive in film.

The Matrix (1999) became the highest-grossing R-rated film in history, a title it held for 13 years until Deadpool happened.

  • By 2002, the famous ” Bullet Time” sequence had been spoofed in over 20 different films.

Smith only has purpose hence he mindlessly makes copies of himself to infect the matrix in an attempt to take over. Its really a yin and yang between the Oracle and the Architect while Neo is a refection of humanity identity and choice. LOVE is the rogue element that allows Neo to break the cycle or rebooting the matrix like all the other iterations
