Some kind of doctor. Will work for plants. And books. And wine.
At this point he’d probably welcome a little drug-induced amnesia.

Can you do the free trial after all the episodes have posted and just binge and unsubscribe?

Having watched the whole movie now, eh…. I think the cinematic universe could attack Finland better. More conclusively and convincingly.

The cinematography of the movie was LOVELY. I have nothing else to say right now.

I can still hear you saying Gen Z must never break the chain.

I am currently watching a movie I picked up at the library today which is like Olympus Has Fallen but Finnish. And the Finns apparently like to call a fig a fig because it’s called Attack on Finland. Yep, that’s what it’s about all right. On the nose. Got it in one.

I look forward to our rewatch of the second half of this one. #TheLastDriveIn
November 8, 2025 at 6:00 AM
Me too! Especially when I can prepare, and gather footnotes. #TheLastDriveIn

I blame him too. But I'm probably not going to be able to stay awake through a second movie so good night moon (that's no moon), and if you would be willing to join me in a re-watch of the second half? #TheLastDriveIn

To be fair to my point, I don't exclude it, I just think that if it's the main plot, it's not a giallo. #TheLastDriveIn
November 8, 2025 at 5:45 AM
But to be fair, I might fall asleep midway, I'm hanging it but I am tired. So if you would like to sign off now, I will absolutely be down for rewatching/first-watching the second half on another date. #TheLastDriveIn

Well, I'm still awake, and I don't have any reason to be up at an adult time tomorrow so I'm going to let it play.

Also, they mentioned that both directors didn't just make gialli, so they both had films that might not fully comply with the giallo structure. #TheLastDriveIn

OMG, we have invented a new line on the list of things horror fans argue about! WOOOOOO! #TheLastDriveIn

But like I said, peripheral - not unimportant but also not what the movie is about. The supernatural is an element in the movie but it's not the point around which the movie revolves. #TheLastDriveIn
November 8, 2025 at 5:27 AM
Yeah, that distinction, in movies and real life, is very fine indeed. #TheLastDriveIn
November 8, 2025 at 5:23 AM
But not as the primary plot device, usually. The killer isn't a supernatural creature, the crime isn't solved using paranormal resources, other than some visions or psychics providing clues. It shouldn't be primary, to me, to be a giallo. #TheLastDriveIn
November 8, 2025 at 5:22 AM
Yeah, he's no Dupin. #TheLastDriveIn
November 8, 2025 at 5:13 AM
I think the idea is that the supernatural element would have to be either peripheral or debunked, otherwise it's a ghost story not a giallo. #TheLastDriveIn

Have you ever watched a Philo Vance movie? #TheLastDriveIn
November 8, 2025 at 5:12 AM
Dammit, you responded too late, I no longer remember! I've gotten distracted by all this chatter and high level talk! (And I'm disoriented because this doesn't usually happen on this show. Well the chatter maybe.) #TheLastDriveIn
November 8, 2025 at 5:02 AM
I am discombobulated by how much of this show is about classic mystery stories and authors. I DID NOT EXPECT THIS BUT I AM SO PREPARED. #TheLastDriveIn @republicandalek.bsky.social

I have read a Philo Vance novel - and watched a few of the movies. Joe Bob is right, he was a pain in the ass. #TheLastDriveIn
