After a week off due to technical difficulties, Cam and Shanara are back and they are discussing movies with a very specific cinema Trope; Manic Pixie Dream Girl. It is a character in film that is described as: "exists solely in the fevered imaginations of sensitive writers-directors to teach broodingly soulful young men to embrace life and its infinite mysteries and adventures." MPDGs are said to help their men without pursuing their own happiness, and such characters never grow up; thus, their men never grow up.
Bonjour et bienvenue au club des devoirs! Yes, this week we have taken a journey across the channel into France to bring you two absolute classics of French Cinema. The hugely popular Amélie and the gritty, political drama La Haine.
This week we chose movies with outstanding Soundtracks. The Clint Eastwood classic The Good, The Bad and The Ugly and the Coen Brothers musical romp: O Brother, Where Art Thou
Episode Twenty eight. Absolutely huge episode this week. We watched a total of 6 movies this week to be able to discuss some of the best movies we've done so far!
We're back! We've had a break over Christmas but now we are back into full swing. We have started this year with a look at one of our favourite directors: Wes Anderson.
Episode Twenty-six.
It's chrrriisssttmaaaaassssss!
We're so excited to present our Christmas episode.
We both agreed that Home Alone is the hands-down best Christmas movie of all time so we did that and then picked another two to discuss.
Cam picked the one-big-advert, Arnie classic: Jingle All the Way
And Shanara picked the questionably Christmas: Nightmare Before Christmas.
Let us know what you would have picked!
Episode Twenty-Six.
Adventure time, come on bring your friends, we'll go to very distant lands. With Cam the Aussie and Shaz the Brit, the fun never ends.
It's adventure time!
We have strapped on our hiking boots and packed our binoculars for this weeks episode. Adventure Movies!
Cam picked the dinosaur epic, Jurassic Park and Shanara picked the worryingly scary board game based adventure, Jumanji!
Episode Twenty four.
We were joined by our good friend Daniel Farley. He chose Ghostbusters and described it as a movie that gives you exactly what you expect. We wracked out brains and decided that another great example of this is the blockbuster B-movie, Machete.
Episode Twenty-Three.
Loved recording this one. These movies are both so uniquely funny, it was a pleasure to talk about them.

-Napoleon

Episode Twenty one.
Super excited about this episode. We were lucky enough to have Bryan from Movie Mayhem Podcast on this week to talk about his favourite musical The Little Shop of Horrors.
Shanara tried to pick Grease or Hairspray but Cam put his foot down and picked something with a bit more substance: The Blues Brothers.
We have recorded a short special episode celebrating the life and legacy of the incredible Stan Lee.
1Episode Twenty.
This week we received a suggestion from one of our American fans. He suggested we watch Chungking Express and Taxi driver. Both very different movies that have a theme of loneliness but that he felt are romantic love stories at heart. We delved deep into the artistic Chungking Express and the Classic, incredible taxi driver.
Episode Nineteen.
We present you with our first fan requested episode. Anthony from Canberra, Australia has selected two movies from the 1960s: The Odd Couple and Cactus flower.
He's also chosen the focus for us to talk about.
-Relationships
-character arcs
-how the comedy holds up
-the Neil Simon adaptation
-Golden Hawn interactions with Ingrid Bergman
Safe to say The Odd Couple was one of Shanara's favourite movies we've done!

When i need help with my homework i just go to https://nursingwriting.org/nursing-homework-help/ i don't want to say that i am completely dumb but you knw that sometimes, one cannot have a lot of time to actually write those things, i think that i get really frustrating when i need to do this by myself and thus i prefer to give some sort of assignment to other people than do everything by myself
