Listen "A.I. EP. 43 “I’m A Golden Starfish” - Booksmart"
Episode Synopsis
Booksmart was one of the best films of 2019 and Rotten Tomatoes even gave it one of their Golden Tomatoes for Best Comedy. That seemed more than reason enough to do an episode on it and we thought it would be fun to bring back our good friend, Beth Swartz!Before we got chatting with Beth about this hilarious film, we discussed the last movies we’ve seen, what we’ve been streaming and the favorite things we’ve been eating.We had a blast breaking down this fun, coming of age comedy and spent a lot of time discussing our favorite scenes and ended up quoting most of the movie. We ended the episode with a super entertaining Imitation Game and our Patrons get to hear us pick our Top 10 Favorite Directorial Debuts, which ended up being really hard because there were so many to choose from!If you haven’t seen Booksmart yet we highly recommend you check it out and then listen to our AMAZING takes!Enjoy!1:13 The Two Popes2:28 19176:48 Fleabag8:51 The Spy10:19 Lai Wah https://www.laiwahmn.com/10:50 Mickey’s Diner http://www.mickeysdiningcar.com/13:00 Plugs13:51 www.patreon.com/theavidindoorsmen 15:51 @bethany__kim at Compass Records www.compassrecords.com17:30 Booksmart Plot Synopsis18:44 Rotten Tomatoes19:36 Richard Brody from The New Yorker20:17 Katie Rife from The AV Club21:21 Buegs’ Hot Take24:10 Rob’s Hot Take26:55 Beth’s Hot Take28:55 The Dude Award32:22 The Tucci Award39:26 The Dingus52:30 Show Me The Money1:01:51 Buegs’ Boo Hoo Moments1:04:41 Movie Trivia1:08:55 Judgement Day1:09:18 The Imitation Game1:24:26 Top 10 Best Directorial Debut
