S1E8 Modern High School Movies - Top 5 High School Movies (feat. Keenan Culler of The Hollywood Week podcast)

Don’t check the runtime...it might be our longest episode yet! [Editor’s Note: It is not. But it’s close.] We’re joined by old friend of the show Keenan Culler — in person with us for the first time — to talk about our favorite high school movies. John Hughes, sex comedies, McLovin, horror classics, recent masterpieces — they’re all present and accounted for. Plus, we possibly have the most honorable mentions ever featured on a Top 5 list. This one was a blast, folks. Stay tuned to see if your favorites got mentioned.

S1E7 The Modern High School Movie - Booksmart (feat. Natalia Martinez)

Our cinematic keg is almost tapped out as we pour our final Modern High School glass for the month: Booksmart! Olivia Wilde’s directorial debut has become a favorite of Internet film circles for its classic premise, dynamic duo of Katilyn Dever and Beanie Feldstein, and hilarious script. Christian and Scott are joined by yet another new friend of the show, Natalia Martinez, to unpack Wilde’s first film — plus some bonus chatter about Don’t Worry Darling.

It’s been a strong month on the show so far — will our hosts keep the good vibes rolling, or break out a contrarian take?

Next week, we’re talking about our Top 5 High School movies. Send us yours at cinemaontappodcast@gmail.com, and we’ll shout you out on the show.

S1E6 The Modern High School Movie - Lady Bird

It’s time for another pour from our keg of the month. The Modern High School Movie rotation continues as we look at a recent Best Picture-nominee: Lady Bird.

Greta Gerwig was just discussed on this podcast for her latest film (Barbie. Have you heard of it?), so now we get a chance to talk more about her and her career beginnings. One of our hosts uses the word “perfect” to describe this movie, and the other one isn’t very far behind. Fair warning: It’s going to be a love fest this week.

S1E5 The Modern High School Movie - Bottoms (feat. Megan Liguori)

It’s time to tap a new keg for the month of September. In the spirit of Back to School, Scott and Christian are talking modern high school movies! And, they’re starting with a new release hot off the presses: Bottoms.

The second feature from Shiva Baby director Emma Seligman, Bottoms follows Rachel Sennott and Ayo Edibiri as two unpopular high school students who start a fight club to meet girls and get laid. It’s a classic setup with a 2023 twist.

We’re joined by new friend of the show Megan Liguori to review Bottoms and talk about high school movies as a sub-genre. Stay tuned to find out what everybody thought!

S1E3 July 2023 Movies - Barbie

The inaugural cinematic keg is almost tapped out as Christian and Scott turn their attentions to the smash hit of the summer: Barbie! Our hosts muster up as much Kenergy as they can to talk about Greta Gerwig’s direction, Margot Robbie’s performance, Ryan Gosling’s musical chops, and more. Then it comes down to reflections on the month and the all-important question: What drinks would you pair with Barbie and Oppenheimer? Stay tuned.

S1E2 July 2023 Movies - Oppenheimer (feat. Anthony Fins)

Cinema on Tap’s first ever monthly keg continues with one of the most anticipated films of the year and one of the best-received: Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer.

Nolan is back with Cillian Murphy in the lead role for the historical epic about the construction of the atomic bomb. Featuring an enormous supporting cast, a variety of viewing formats, and a practical recreation of the Trinity Test, there’s a ton to get into with this one. We are joined by filmmaker and friend of the show Anthony Fins to talk through the films. Do our hosts agree with the hype, or is one of them ready to drip an atomic hot take?

S1E1 July 2023 Movies - Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning Part One (feat. Elias Hoxsie)

We’re back — with new branding! Cinema Drip is now Cinema On Tap, and Christian and Scott are cracking into some Double IPAs to discuss one of their most anticipated films of the year: Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One. We are joined by new friend of the show Elias Hoxsie, who designed our new logo!

It’s safe to say that M:I Fallout (covered on the show in June of last year) is one of our favorite action movies of recent memory. Can Tom Cruise and Christopher McQuarrie keep one upping themselves to ensure Dead Reckoning matches up?

S4E25 Wes Anderson: Rankings

This is the final episode of Cinema Drip, but not the last time you will hear Scott and Christian talk movies on this feed. Tune in to find out what's next!

S4E24 Wes Anderson: Asteroid City

It is the dawn of a new Wes Anderson movie - Asteroid City is here and Scott, a Wes Anderson loyal, finds himself on the opposite side of Christian, a Wes Anderson skeptic. Though not surprising, what might be the surprising are the takes that begin to fly. What about you, listener? Are you loyal, or do you doubt?
