NEW VIDEO! 🐠 "How Ponyo Finds Magic in the Mundane"

Studio Ghibli films often have a way of blending fantasy and reality, and for Ponyo, this employment of Magical Realism is a crucial ingredient in its environmentalist message. (link in replies)

after kojima's comments about the pandemic and death stranding it feels relevant to plug this video essay we did on that exact same topic earlier this year https://t.co/zBiepUl47p

Woke up to breaking 14k subs on YouTube, thanks so much!! Very wild thing for that to happen. Cheers!

We have not been uploading podcasts as much recently because we are all busy! As such we're pausing patron billings for the month of december to make up for the lack of content. Thanks for your continued support!

⚡️New video!🌞
Ten years later Black and White 2 remain a unique entry within the Pokemon series. Did they take advantage of that opportunity? Can they tell us anything about the future of the franchise? (spoiler: yes)

RTs Appreciated 💙

i think Shivers in disco elysium is just the best thing to exist in any videogame ever tbh. so unbelievably cool. why doesn’t every game have a shivers skill?

[Socratic Cinema @CinemaSocratic]

forgot to mention it but we're decreasing the frequency of episodes coming out for the time being. We apologize, but life gets busy! To any patrons, we completely understand if you wish to pause your memberships.

🏇 NEW VIDEO ESSAY 🚴‍♂️

What Makes Luca’s Race Scene So Good? [CC]

In order to understand Luca's best scene, we need to talk about the 100-year-old silent film that started it all: Ben-Hur.

Tis’ the season of warm tones, warm drinks, cool weather and even cozier movies. This week we're tackling the best Fall media. #socraticcinema #FallMovies #AutumnVibes #spotifypodcasts #applepodcasts

[Skyehoppers @skyehoppers]

New video and it's my best one yet! Your Name Shouldn't Be This Good. It's a film I have a deep attachment to despite it's *many* problems. Why? I'm extremely proud of how this one came together, even though I'm not sure it'll make sense to anyone but me!

RTs appreciated!
