Episode description

Jay (@DietJay) and Melanie (@MelanieVesey) discuss why Disney/Pixar films are box office juggernauts, the importance of having comedic moments in film no matter what the genre, and cover John Lasseter's sabbatical on "This Week In Hollywood Predators" before exploring the hypocrisy of Wonder Woman and why the year's premiere "female" movie couldn't escape being made with the male gaze.

Theme: Bustin' by Neil Cicierega
