BR04 - Donnie Darko

In this Booze Review, Earnshaw and Milliardo put on their stupid man suits to revisit Donnie Darko, from 2001. We bathe in the teenage angst at a cosmic level, discussing the things we liked, things we didn't like, things we noticed for the first time, and questions we somehow still have after 19 years and double-digit viewings. In 2020, does this movie still put up, or should Richard Kelly just chut up? Are you part of the cult? How deep and eternal is Earnshaw's love for Southland Tales?

BR03 - LOTR: For Frodo.

In this Booze Review, Earnshaw and Milliardo reminisce over The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King movie from 2003. We touch on things that have always bothered us, heavy themes, things we love, dark topics, and all the stuff that the film got right. After 16 years, does the final film in Peter Jackson's blockbuster trilogy still hold up? Does the trilogy hold up as a whole? Could we ever see something like this again?
