Phoenician Schemes & Hollow Franchise Dreams: Wes Anderson & Ballerina | Talkies Ep. 15
Update: 2025-06-10
Description
Is Wes Anderson’s magic starting to wear thin?
This week, Brandon and Shea take on The Phoenician Scheme and unpack whether Anderson’s movies are starting to feel like more style over substance. Then they turn to Ballerina, the latest attempt to franchise out from John Wick. Shea doesn’t hold back either, calling it a hollow, heartless cash grab that proves how far studios will go to milk a franchise dry.
From stale auteurs to franchise burnout, there's plenty to talk about this week!
