Through some mail mix up this year, Creators & Guests Michael Dixon - Host John Garcia - Producer Ryan King - Host received a letter to Santa from some kid named Billy.

But do the two trash fiends bring recommendations with them? Is Dixon the only hope to bring classy and cultured content with Sidney Poitier's directorial debut Buck and The Preacher (1972) ?

This episode isn't a hoax or a prank, it's just a regular Recommend or Refute episode. Why would we open with that? Well, when John brings Thank You Very Much (2023) , a biographical documentary about Andy Kaufman, we feel obligated to emphasize that we aren't trying to fool anyone with the rest of our picks. Sure, Ryan did bring something called Spy x Family: Code White (2024) , and that reads like a math problem, but we assure you its very real and so is his take on the feature. Meanwhile, Dixon is keeping it Criterion by telling us about the spirits and curses brought upon samurai by their misdeeds in Kaneto Shindo 's Kuroneko (1968) .

Join us for our second ever listener request episode! Our listener Tyler recommended that we watch the 1962 samurai classic Harakiri , and we're very glad he did. This is one of the best movies we've seen in quite a while, and we had a blast breaking down this beautiful story of class and honor in feudal Japan. If you'd like to hear our Afterthoughts on your favorite movie, leave us a review on Apple Podcasts and mention the movie in your review.…

On this completely unscripted episode of Recommend or Refute, Dixon brings a Frank Capra comedy You Can't Take It With You (1938) that you actually can take with you in digital or blu ray form. John talks about the well-intentioned, but weirdly muddled allegory of Pleasantville (1998) , and Ryan is starts the year off right with a movie the whole family can watch (entertainment not guaranteed) as he shares his experience with the Freaky Friday spiritual successor Family Switch (2023).…

On this episode of Recommend or Refute, the Afterthoughts crew forgoes Holiday recommendations (those are yet to come) in favor of a semi-conventional episode. John's excited to introduce you to his new friend D.A.R.Y.L. (1985) and tell you about another 1980s family movie that's not really for kids, Dixon grabs a night cap in preparation to share his thoughts on Nic Cage's latest performance in Dream Scenario (2023), and Ryan tests the limits of our format as he attempts to cram Air Bud (1997) and 8 other Air Bud Entertainment related features into this episode --WE WON'T LET HIM GET AWAY WITH IT! Well, maybe we'll let him get away with some of it. Tune in to hear two sane men try to help another man down off the cinematic ledge that is animals playing human sports, and stick around after the usual outro to hear an extended conversation on our dream Air Bud scenario .…

This episode could have been and should have been about an entirely different film; however, fate didn't permit the discussion of our initial pick. While the decision of what to watch and discuss was left to Ryan, he went MIA somewhere on a flight over the fictional country of Parmistan. We're sure he'll be fine, but just in case we're sending in our two remaining co-hosts --Dixon and John-- to discuss their way through this totally unique and original foreign nation, all while wielding the wisdom and insights granted by the ancient, 1985 fighting techniques of Gymkata (1985) . Join them as they talk about one of John's top picks from Schlocktober, the differences between contemporary action and '80s action, and mix in some Gymnastic conspiracy theories along the way.…

In the second episode of our mini-spotlight series on anime cinema, the Afterthoughts crew is jumping from the fantastical fairytale world of Hayao Miyazaki. We're catching the next interstellar transport ship out to Shin'ichirô Watanabe's jazzy sci-fi western film (and related series) as we discuss Cowboy Bebop: The Movie (2001). Is it able to stand on its own if you don't know anything about the show? Does it appease followers of the series? These and many more questions will asked and answered (to some extent) as we go Knockin' on Heavens Door with the bounty hunters of the Bebop.…
