‘Malcolm & Marie’ and Macaroni & Cheese

‘Malcolm & Marie’ and Macaroni & Cheese

Author: MaximumFun.org February 12, 2021 Duration: 59:02

A LOT to discuss in this episode. First off, the gang dissects Sam Levinson’s new film, Malcolm & Marie. Ify points out the explicit reasons why this movie was written by a white man. Alonso gives some insight into the world of film criticism. And Drea celebrates the joy and beauty of macaroni and cheese. Plus, they answer a question from the Who Shotline about movie merchandise, which ends up being more embarrassingly revealing than one would think. And, as always, we’ve got ‘Staff Picks.’

In news, Lil Yachty is producing a movie based on the game ‘Uno’, 185 LGBTQ German actors “come out”, and Charisma Carpenter speaks her truth.
