Sean and Amanda team up with “Mean Pod Guy” Adam Nayman to dive into Ari Aster’s polarizing new thriller Eddington, starring Joaquin Phoenix and Pedro Pascal. They all loved its sharp take on our screen-obsessed world—slickly weaving phones and social media into the horror—and ponder how it’ll fare both at the box office and with critics.
They also give props to Kiyoshi Kurosawa’s 27th feature, Cloud, and explain why Kurosawa is still a cinema icon. To cap things off, Ari Aster himself joins the chat to spell out what sets this movie apart from his past work, why now was the right time to make it, and where he’s headed next.
