Special Episode – Megalopolis (2024)

Max, Mike; Movies

Great Cesear’s film reference! I know you’re all shocked, waiting as you have been for the start of our next series with a worm on your tongue (baited breath. Thank you! Try the veal!) but we’re delaying our next series a week because here at Max, Mike; Movies we are nothing if not topical! Yes, truly we are the skin disease of movie podcasts. After an absence of many moons (and several asteroids), Francis Ford Coppola has returned to the world of cinema with a new movie produced, written, and directed by someone names Nancis Cord Froppola . . . WAIT A MINUTE! Yes, Mr. Coppola has returned with a movie that is all HIM and has left audiences, shall we say, somewhat divided. I thought this movie would leave Mike divided as well, until he explained to me, through a locked door, that this particular phrase didn’t involve an axe or any sharp cutting tools. Well, thank you, Captain No Fun! Regardless, we were both excited by the Coppolistic film entry and, since we both had rushed out to see it, decided to discuss it here and now, for you and yours. Ain’t we something? So give a listen and see if the film divides us (although, let me stress, not in the fun way) or unites us. Ave Cesear Salad!
