Jess isn't new to Martin Scorsese movies, but Goodfellas had eluded her. This is a bit surprising, given how fascinated she is with true stories AND organized crime, but now she fully understands why you should never tell Joe Pesci that he's a funny guy...

We get to talk about unions, fourth wall breaks, the "right way" to do crime, and all the delicious food. You can listen in but just remember: never rat on your friends and always keep your mouth shut.

Steel Magnolias was HUGE in 1989 when it came out. Matt was only 7 years old, so he can perhaps be forgiven for not watching it then. His parents may not have approved of him hearing some of Ouiser Boudreaux's colourful language...

There's a lot to talk about with this film! So many wonderful strong female characters, so many head-scratching decisions related to Easter eggs, so many times where the 1980s felt like the 1950s, and Shirley MacLaine...just give us all of the Shirley MacLaine. Get ready to line up for some bleeding armadillo cake!

While she has seen many Pixar films, including most of the other ones released in the 2010s, Jess had never seen Inside Out. She was, however, very familiar with getting random songs and ad jingles stuck in her head for no good reason. Thankfully, this movie helped explain that! She felt seen...and attacked.

As you can imagine with a movie about our own emotions, she had all sorts of responses! She was wheeze-laughing less than 3 minutes in because of Sadness (the character, not the emotion...), she was perturbed at Riley's parents, she was annoyed at Joy (the character, not the emotion...) for being a control freak, and she was emotional at Riley's imaginary friend Bing Bong ("That Cotton Candy Elephant Dolphin Thing"). Who would be her voice of Anger (the character, not the...look, you get it), and would it be constantly reading the newspaper? We chatted about all these thoughts and more before they went off to be stored in long term memory!
