Shirleon joins Melvin to discuss Sinners, Ryan Coogler's massive 2025 hit. As the film continues to dominate conversation, the two discuss it's myriad of themes, whether the film mixes its ideas together well, how they interpret the dichotomy between Smoke and Stack, and the relationship between music, creativity, power, and community.
Topics:
- (PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 20-minutes discussing the announcement that John Krasinski will be returning for A Quiet Place Part III despite A Quiet Place: Day One turning out to be the best of those films and he wasn't even attached to it, and whether it's even theater worthy or a "wait-till-streaming" kind of thing. (PATREON EXCLUSIVE)
- Shirleon absolutely loved Sinners in every way possible.
- Melvin didn't love it but he did think it was good, and he spends some time exploring what he believes are the film's 3 parts: drama, themes, and vampires.
- Contrasting coalescence and coexistence, two things Melvin observed in the film.
- Shirleon was consistently in awe of the film, noting not only the visuals but the dialogue as well.
- Thinking about "it" movies and whether movies can be "objectively good" or "objectively bad".
- Talking about the music and THAT scene.
- Melvin, "...when you are excellent you are attractive to more than just good people. You are also attractive to evil as well."
- Talking about the title and how some spiritual leaders have misaligned priorities.
- How Sammie exists as a "what comes next" kind of character, both literally within the story and thematically in its metatext.
Recommendations:
- Primal (2019-X) (TV Show)
- The Running Man (1987) (Movie)
