Nostalgia is Killing Cinema
The DimeStore Cinema Podcast - A podcast by Justin
Categories:
This podcast is a recorded reading of an essay I wrote back in 2016 about the insidious use of nostalgia to trick viewers into thinking subpar films are bearable. I speak specifically about Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and Mad Max: Fury Road. Buckle up as I try to navigate the tumultuous seas of sequels.
