Listen "TFR Ep. 509: The Wretched, Shadow, Who Dat?!?"
Episode Synopsis
This week on The First Run, Chris and Matt discuss the recent box office leader for weeks, ‘The Wretched’. What happens when a forest witch sneaks into town in the carcass of a hunted deer? Nothing good, let me tell you. Then acclaimed director Zhang Yimou returns with the martial arts adjacent political thriller, ‘Shadow’. Can a film this gorgeous have too dense a narrative? There’s the terribly exciting rundown of the big releases on physical media featuring the Streaming and Straight to DVD Picks of the Week. The show then closes with the return of the role-playing game, Who Dat?!?, featuring such luminaries as Michael Keaton, Rian Johnson and Johnny Hollywood himself.00:00-08:40: Intro/The Wretched08:41-18:17: Physical Media Picks18:18-26:39: Shadow26:40-55:24: Who Dat?!?55:25-56:52: Wrap UpTheme music by Jamal Malachi Ford-BeyTwitterInstagramFacebook
