In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole?

Werewolf Ambulance is a horror movie comedy podcast. Allen and Katie watch horror movies from all eras and of all qualities and then discuss them in a not-so-academic way (just as the name "Werewolf Ambulance" might imply!) and then discuss and rate them. The episodes do contain spoilers, so please watch the films before listening if that bothers you!

'Toy Story' at 30: The Rise and Fall of Pixar | Patreon #53

For Toy Story's 30th anniversary, we’re diving deep into the film and studio that changed animation forever—but also how Pixar itself evolved from a revolutionary indie disruptor into a corporate franchise machine. We’ll explore Pixar’s early era, where its films tackled bold political and existential themes—from A Bug’s Life's working-class rebellion to WALL-E's anti-consumerist dystopia—before shifting, post-Disney acquisition, into a safer, identity-driven storytelling model that trades larger commentaries for more safe formulas. Then, we’ll break down the Toy Story franchise as a whole before going deep on the original masterpiece. We forgot to discuss the evolution of 2D to 3D CGI and how the oncoming AI boom and those two pieces of history connect, but I'm sure we'll do another animated film in the near future!
