This week on the InSession Film Podcast, Dave Giannini fills in for Brendan again as we talk a little Planet of the Apes and the great Alexander Payne in anticipation for The Holdovers!

– Planet of the Apes (11:08)
This last week we saw the new trailer for Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, so we spent a few minutes talking about our reaction to it and how we feel about the new Planet of the Apes trilogy that came out last decade.

– Alexander Payne (32:27)
With The Holdovers hitting theaters this weekend, we wanted to spend some time talking about Alexander Payne and what makes him a unique filmmaker. His films tend to be a little quirky and funny, but they’re equally poignant and human. We specifically talk about how he’s able to maintain that balance tonally. The cast in his films are also noteworthy and that’s something we highlight as well.

– Marvel (1:11:31)
The Marvel Cinematic Universe has seemingly hit a wall with Phase Four and the introduction of their Disney+ shows. While JD is a slight defender of Phase Four, there’s no denying that there’s something off about the MCU currently. We did talk about this briefly earlier in the year, but with the recent news about Robert Downey Jr. possibly coming back, and some of their Disney+ shows coming out since that previous discussion, we thought it was apt to revisit the current standing of the MCU and what challenges they face moving forward.
