Yo what is up my lovely people, and we are back with more Movie Newbie content for Season 3 (kind of). On this episode we catch up and give a little update on what's been going on in our lives and what we did over the summer. We then get down to business and have a lovely chat about some of the movies and TV shows we've been watching recently. We also have a little format change for the podcast. We're doing away with the long unstructured free-flowing chat and are going to get down to business with questions. We're stopping with our usual "What's aged the best/worst" and replacing it with "Favourite Quote" and "The Armchair Critic Section." Dont worry, we're still keeping "Favourite performance," "Favourite Scene," "Mystery Question" and Ratings.Finally, we introduce the new theme from Jabriel, Saudi Cinema. For this theme, we look into three beautiful movies from the region:1. Wadjda2. Barakah Meets Barakah3. The Book of SunDon't forget to give us a lovely 5-star rating wherever you listen to your podcasts :)***JABRIEL ALSUHAIMI is a multi-disciplinary creative, working on a multitude of various projects in the audiovisual sphere.
