Gun-fu, cool sunglasses, allegory of the cave; the Matrix has something for the whole family. This week, Raul & Trevor jack-in to the surprisingly deep lore of the 1999 action/sci-fi classic. Love it or hate it, the gamut of all Matrix IP is rich with characters, history, and mind-bending (and spoon-bending) laws of science. Where did the machines come from? What level of consciousness does Agent Smith actually have? And if you were going to build the Matrix, how would you actually do it? All of these questions and more are somewhat answered in this week's Film Hole.

An iconic work by the Spanish/Mexican director Luis Buñuel, The Exterminating Angel follows the events of an uppity dinner party as it devolves into chaos... for pretty much no reason at all. Have you ever had the experience of guests overstaying their welcome and your hospitality by not going home even though it's 3AM!? What's that? You've forgotten what a party is, and you haven't left your home in 9 months? Fair enough, but thankfully Luis Buñuel has, on this weeks... Film Hole.

Laser Shark Studios — Sun, 27 Sep 2020 09:00:00 -0600

This week Trevor, Raul, and Justin tackle the only two solo directing credits from traditionally screenwriter Charlie Kaufman. That is to say, the reason this episode is late is because of how depressed the hosts were afterwards. They explore, what we think Kaufman wants them to explore, which is death, the fleetingness of time, and regret. Despite this, this week's episode is extra long to accommodate what has been one of the best conversations on Film Hole so far.

10 Cloverfield Lane

Laser Shark Studios — Sun, 29 Mar 2020 09:00:00 -0600

Directed by Dan Trachtenberg. You definitely thought it was directed by JJ Abrams. But it wasn't. Clearly the best film in the CCU (Cloverfield Cinematic Universe), but isn't without it's problems.
