(CLICK HERE FOR A SORTABLE LIST OF ALL THE QT3 MOVIE PODCASTS)
Since 2009, Tom Chick, Christien Murlawnskri, and Kellywand have gathered once a week to discuss a recent movie for the Quarter to Three Movie Podcast. The episodes are divided between a discussion of the movie in question and a gratuitously wide-ranging conversation about a weekly topic (dubbed the 3x3 since we each pick three choices). We'd love to read your choices for a topic if you submit your picks to[email protected] within a week of the podcast's post date. Also, we apologize in advance for anything Kellywand might say.
Now that Tom is back to liking Robert Eggers movies, listen as he tries in vain to remember the man’s first name. Meanwhile, Kellywand wants listeners to weigh in on their opinion of Nosferatu’s longer term plans with Ellen. What kind of marriage did he have in mind? And where will they be registered? It’s the latest Qt3 Movie Podcast and another classic -opsis for our new favorite classic horror movie!

We’re still working on getting a regular schedule going, and even though this was meant to be a shorter episode specifically for the Dune II synopsis, we end up chatting about Denis Villeneuve’s next entry in the apparently ongoing saga of Timothee Chalamet’s conquest of the universe and our hearts.

We’re doing something a bit different this time, discussing a very strange and strangely compelling British comedy/thriller that Kellywand calls a “What’s going on?” show. It’s technically a six-episode miniseries but if you watch it all at once — which we recommend — it’s just like a three-hour movie! What kind of movie? Well, that’s quite the question.
Up next: We’ll be revisiting two of our top ten picks from 2023. They Cloned Tyrone next week, and Poor Things the week after. And after that, we’re hitting the theaters to see Dune. We hope you’ll join us!

When it comes to bees, the latest Jason Statham vehicle gives us a lot to think about.

What have we learned and how can we make this world a better place for bees and people? Listen and find out!
Up next: Am I Being Unreasonable?

Nope writer and director Jordan Peele seems to like horror movies as much as we do. We’re divided on this particular one, but at least we agree we saw something we’d never seen in a movie before. Given our long and storied careers watching movies, that’s quite an accomplishment!

Welcome to the single most extensively researched episode of the Quarter to Three Movie Podcast.

Joachim Trier and Eskil Vogt co-wrote a script for Thelma, which Trier directed. Now Vogt has written and directed his own script for The Innocents, which has a lot in common with Thelma. We take advantage of the overlap for a twofer podcast on Thelma and The Innocents, and according to Tom Chick, you should watch Thelma first. According to Kelly Wand– Wait, what’s going on? Something’s…off.

Tom “Marmoset” Chick and Kelly “Tagline” Wand drive up the onramp, adjust their rear view mirrors, activate their turn signal, and carefully merge onto the highway to the danger zone!

Can’t they just enjoy their 80s nostalgia like the rest of America? Tune in and find out!

Tom Chick and Kelly Wand join Jessie Buckley and Rories Kinnear for an unnerving vacation in the English countryside. Are they all in a horror movie, an allegory, both, or neither? And what do we mean when we talk about whether a movie is “scary”? What’s the last movie that scared us? Finally, if you thought the final scene of Men was disturbing, just wait until the synopsis version!

We’ve got plenty to say about Sam Raimi’s Marvel movie — including a synopsis featuring three celebrity appearances! — but we should warn you there’s a fair amount of talk about Everything Everywhere All At Once. We couldn’t help ourselves. We’ve been ensorcelled.
