Listen "1998: Love, War, and Asteroids (feat. Kevin Weir)"
Episode Synopsis
It's 1998, and was all fair in love and war? Some say no, as Harvey Weinstein launched an Oscar campaign of attrition to get himself an award for theatre kids' ideal romcom Shakespeare in Love, while also slandering rival Steven Spielberg's intense war movie Saving Private Ryan. Claire, Erin, Dan, and returning guest Kevin break down both, ask whether Shakespeare deserves the hate it got for defeating Private Ryan, what each film does well, whether Dan is wrong about his preference or if he's just speaking truth to power (or in this case internet film bros), and who had the best powerhouse ensemble. But one cannot talk box office hits of the 90s without addressing Michael Bay, and international box office champ Armageddon is here for us. Love, war, rocks from space, join the unhinged breakdown!Find all of our episodes and the rest of Writing Therapy Productions' various entertainments at www.writingtherapyproductions.com
