If you listened to Episode 109, you’ll know that we announced our latest Movie Series, in which we’ll be talking about Pixar. Now, as we mentioned on the show, we have an idea for the five movies we want to do, however, before we land anything, we wanted some fan feedback! Thus, this week’s poll.
For our poll this week, we are asking for your Pixar Final Four (hey, it’s March Madness season!). It doesn’t have to be in any particular order. Just write in your favorite four Pixar movies. Once we tally the votes, we’ll use that as a barometer for our new Pixar Movie Series, which will take place the weeks leading up to Inside Out, coming this June.
So, all that said, what’s your Pixar Final Four? Write them below!
This week on the InSession Film Podcast, we did another InSession Film Throwback Review as we discussed Clint Eastwood’s Mystic River. And while our discussion of Mystic River was inspired by Sean Penn starring in The Gunman, we thought for our Top 3 it’d be more fun to discuss our favorite Eastwood directed movies. With 30+ movies on his resume, there’s certainly a lot to choose from and we had some really great conversation regarding the films on our lists.
That being said, what Clint Eastwood directed films would make your list? Here are the one’s that made ours (Keep in mind we all have different criteria for our lists as well):
JD
1) Unforgiven
2) Million Dollar Baby
3) A Perfect World
Brendan
1) Letters from Iwo Jima
2) Million Dollar Baby
3) Mystic River
Honorable Mentions (Combined) Gran Tarino, Invictus, Changeling, Flags of our Fathers, The Outlaw Josey Whales, High Plains Drifter – These were edited out of the show due to time.
Hopefully you guys enjoyed our lists and if you agree or disagree with us, let us know in the comment section below. With as many movies has Eastwood has done, clearly we didn’t touch them all. That being said, what would be your Top 3? Leave a comment in the comment section or email us at [email protected].
This week on the InSession Film Podcast, we have no guest and since we weren’t inspired to review Insurgent or The Gunman, we decided another InSession Film Throwback Review was in order. And with Sean Penn starring in The Gunman, we used him as inspiration for our pick to review Mystic River on the show this week. Going off of that, since Mystic River is directed by Clint Eastwood, we decided to discuss our Top 3 Clint Eastwood directed films and for our discussion segment this week, we have another edition of What Are the Chances?
Anyway, check out this week’s show and let us know what you think in the comment section. Thanks for listening and thanks for supporting our podcast!

– What Are the Chances? (1:17:47)
We haven’t had an edition of What Are the Chances? in a while, so we figured it was due this week, especially regarding some recent movie news. We didn’t mean for it to be Disney themed this week, however, it kind of turned out that way. Either way, it was fun and we hope you enjoy. What do you think are the chances?
The chances Frozen 2 is as successful as Frozen
The chances J.J. Abrams comes back for Star Wars: Episode IX
The chances that Inside Out brings Pixar back to their great string of films
Main Review – While We’re Young or Serena
Top 3 – Couples we’d hang out with

For our poll this week, inspired by the wonderful Shailene Woodley and her new movie Insurgent, we want to know which actress you would want to rescue you if you needed to be saved in a dangerous scenario. If you were stuck in Hollywoodland and chaos erupted, which heroine would you want by your side? Your choices don’t have to be inspired by a specific role per se, but just as an actress in general, which one would you want to pull you out of the rubble, so to speak.
This week on the InSession Film Podcast, inspired by Cinderella, we decided to discuss our Top 3 fairy tale characters. For his Top 3, once again, the criteria could certainly be stretched depending on how you look at “fairy tales”, and it certainly gave us room to play with. Even with all that room, we still came up with some pretty solid lists that was really fun to talk about.
That being said, what movie robots would make your list? Here are the one’s that made ours (Keep in mind we all have different criteria for our lists as well):
Brendan
1) Lumière – Beauty and the Beast
2) Captain Vidal – Pan’s Labyrinth
3) Captain Hook – Hook
DJ
1) Captain Hook – Hook
2) Inigo Montoya – The Princess Bride
3) Mulan – Mulan
Nathan
1) Penelope – Penelope
2) Tik Tok – Return to Oz
3) Cheshire Cat – Alice in Wonderland

Hopefully you guys enjoyed our lists and if you agree or disagree with us, let us know in the comment section below. Fairy tales and characters from those stories have been around forever, so clearly there’s a ton we missed out on. That being said, what would be your Top 3?

So for our poll this week, we are setting aside our pride as guys, to talk about Disney’s latest live-action fairy tale, Cinderella. We actually tend to be big fans of Disney, in general, so we are okay talking about this. In fact, early reviews are looking pretty good, so we’re kind of excited for this film.
All that being said, for our poll this week, we want to know which Disney Princess you’d like to spend a day with, if you had the choice. Vote in the poll below and leave any other comments in the comment section below!
P.S., we will prove our masculinity if we lose points on your scale.

Movie robots have always been something I’ve been drawn towards and I love seeing them on screen, whether as bad guys like the T-1000 or as lovable characters like WALL-E.
