Don’t worry. Nothing is wrong here. We’re not stuck inside a hex, kept prisoner by a chaos witch who literally makes us feel her pain as she feels it. We aren’t forced to play roles that are pastiches of famous sitcoms of decades past. Don’t worry. We’re just talking about WandaVision, and how great and funny it is! It doesn’t have anything to do with grief or trauma or a global pandemic. Just enjoy your time in Westview! Connect with us: Contact david@redeemingculture.com if you want to contribute!

This episode is all about 2021’s surprisingly good video game movie, Free Guy (well, I mean, it had Ryan Reynolds and Taika Waititi in it, so how surprising could it be, really?). If you haven’t seen it yet, you may want to check it out on Disney+ before listening in, because we do get into spoilers; but otherwise, please join us for the discussion–and keep the discussion going in our Reel World Discord Server (link below).

On this episode of the Reel World Theology: This episode ballooned from a written article into a full-fledged podcast episode. Friend of Reel World Theology, Reed Lackey, wrote the movie 40: The Temptation of Christ and it debuted this past April. Since Fizz isn't driving this plane, we need two staffers, David Atwell and Josh Crabb, to occupy the co-pilot chairs. We discuss Reed's movie and its international take on Christ as he is tempted in the desert. This movie takes a fascinating angle to Christ's encounter with Satan in the wilderness and centers around the morality of suffering. We think you will like the movie and you will like David and Josh's discussion.

On this Christmas episode of the Reel World Theology Podcast: As we do every year, we take a look at a Christmas classic. This year we are compelled to talk about a movie that has varying degrees of appreciation among the RWT staff. Because of this, we rewatch and talk about A Christmas Story. Does it hold up over time? Why does it connect with people this time of year? We hash it out and talk about what makes this one a yearly revisit for many folks. Enjoy!

On this episode of the Reel World Theology podcast: What more appropriate way to end an up and down 2019 than with what will likely be one of the most disagreed upon films of the year, The Rise of Skywalker. Leve it to Star Wars, their fans, and the critics to create a whirlwind of expectations that couldn't possibly be met. However, Where did we land on the film? Was it good? Bad? Somewhere in the middle? What about that one decision about Rey? Why did it connect with some audiences and not others? How did our enjoyment (or not) of The Last Jedi directly affect this one? Boy, do we have opinions! Enjoy.

On this episode of the Reel World Theology podcast: In a world of division and social media outrage, it is occasionally nice to have a refreshing voice reminding us of the kinder side of humanity. A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood longs to remind audiences to be their best selves and to also never forget the power that one life, earnestly lived, can impact countless others. We discuss how the film holds up to the documentary that came out last year and give some hot takes on Tom Hanks as our Mr. Rogers stand-in. Enjoy!

On this episode of the Reel World Theology podcast: While maybe not an awards contender in 2019, we talk about a movie that we have been anticipating for nearly a decade, a Zombieland sequel. Is it fun? Was it worth the wait? Does it really have anything to say? When do we need sequels? We discuss. Enjoy!

On this episode of the Reel World Theology podcast: We continue the latest season of the show talking about one of the most discussed movies that came out during our break, Ad Astra. This movie had a lot going for it, from the cast to a trailer that ticked a lot of sci-fi fan boxes. It also was pushed back to a September release, which is usually a bad sign. Where did this film land for us? Why do we think that some people thought this was a snooze-fest while others thought it was one of the year's better offerings? We discuss!

On this episode of the Reel World Theology podcast: There has been a lot of conversation (and worry) about the effect that the new Joker film could have on our culture. While this may be another case of over-reaction to a movie that people hadn't yet seen, it remains a divisive film critically. What is the film saying, if anything? There was always a worry about a movie that explored the Joker's past only spoiling the character but does the film actually give us the best of both worlds? We explore both the film and what the ending means for viewers and critics, alike.

A quick update from RWT on the recent unannounced hiatus and what you can expect moving forward from the team. Queue it up and check it out!

On this episode of Reel World: Rewind: Josh finally gets Fizz back on Rewind to talk about a movie he loves to talk about, the 2009 Ruben Fleischer movie Zombieland. With the recent release of the surprise sequel, Zombieland: Double Tap, Fizz and Josh explore their history with the movie, as well as the delightful characters in this movie and one surprise appearance of Bill Murray in probably his best cameo/smaller role in a movie. Ultimately, this movie falls right into the Reel World wheelhouse as it is about belonging, community, and grace. Enjoy our October episode!

On this episode of Reel World: Rewind - Reel World staff members Josh Crabb and Blake Collier are discussing Danny Boyle's 2007 thought-provoking Sci-Fi movie, Sunshine. A portentous movie about a not-so-implausible future where the sun is dying, Boyle's movie ponders transcendence, spirituality, death, and duty. Blake and Josh reflect on some of the quieter moments of the movie but also address the criticisms of the final third and how it may not be as disjointed and abrupt as people have made it out to be. It's a contemplative episode of Rewind that, unlike the sun, is not too hot to handle.

On this episode of Reel World: Rewind - Closing out the summer on a high note, Reel World staffer Josh Crabb invites on his old podcast pal, Blaine Grimes, to discuss a movie that holds incredible significance for Blaine, Steven Spielberg's Jaws. They talk about how the movie remains significant almost 45 years later, what it can teach modern filmmakers and audiences, and concludes with a very personal reflection by Blaine. This is a "do-not-miss" episode of Rewind.

On this episode of the Reel World Theology podcast: The most popular show on NETFLIX is back and brings with it all the nostalgia and mystery that we have come to expect. Stranger Things enters its third season and there is no sign that its popularity is waning. We talk about what the latest edition to the Stranger-verse does for the show's mythos and lore. We also talk about the interweaving of messaging from both the inclusion of Russians and malls into the latest season. All in all, just like the show, a lot of fun!

On this episode of the Reel World Theology podcast: Spider-man: Far From Home brings to a close the latest phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Does it truly bring closure? Does it pick up on the incredible success of Homecoming? We have a lot of opinions on why Sony is fine sitting back and letting Disney make them money along with the complexity of the latest Spider-Man installment. The divide between Parker and Spider-Man is sharp, but is it... absolute?

On this episode of Reel World: Rewind... In celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing, RWT staff members Josh Crabb and David Atwell talk about one of the only movies eligible for Rewind dramatizing an Apollo mission, Ron Howard's Apollo 13. Starring a cavalcade of 1990's stars, this movie highlights the human drama of a real-life crisis, as well as exemplifying humanity's ability to work together to ingeniously solve problems. David and Josh also discuss the movie's hopeful heroism, beating heart of optimism, and inspiring coda of returning to the moon. Plus, David flexes his space knowledge much to the amazement of Josh!
