Our 800th Episode Ask-Us-Anything Mailbag. Plus: ‘Elio’ and ‘How to Train Your Dragon.’

105 min • 23 juni 2025

Sean and Amanda celebrate 800 (!) episodes with a special “Ask Us Anything” movie mailbag. They answer your questions on whether or not 2025 has been a good movie year, share theatrical experiences that have floored them this century, and build their own “Intro to Film” curriculum (3:39). Then, they unpack a pair of two recent children’s movie releases. They start with the new Pixar animated film, ‘Elio,’ and wonder whether its lack of box office suggests that there is a Pixar movie crisis (1:14:20). Finally, they cover ‘How to Train Your Dragon,’ the live-action remake of the original 2010 Dreamworks smash hit, and explain why they find this to be the lowest form of creativity possible (1:30:51).


Hosts: Sean Fennessey and Amanda Dobbins
