Cinema Oblivia

I'm back! And so is Emmett Watkins Jr to talk about Run Lola Run! This movie rules! Emmett and I talk about just how much it rules, why it rules, and how it doesn't rule that there aren't more movies like it!

Anthony Abatte and I watched a lot of older flicks this year and we decided to look back on those instead of rattling off a Top Ten of 2022 this year - largely because I only saw 10 movies that came out this year. Hope you enjoy this more casual epis...

It's the very first Christmas-themed episode of Cinema Oblivia, as Joe Odber returns to discuss 1961's Cash On Demand. Yes, more Hammer and more Peter Cushing, but in a decidedly different film; a tale of a bank robber that's...surprisingly an affirm...
