Welcome to the FEVER DREAMS!! Snobbies, this week’s pick comes to you from Eric’s mind. This pick features ET’s Henry Thomas and is directed by directors Brian Trenchard-Smith & Russell Hagg, “The Quest” or also called “Frog Dreaming.” This film was a big split. Some of the snobs liked it and one snob definitely did not like it. A film about a child who wants to find the mysterious truth behind the local “Donkeygin.” This was a fun one, Enjoy!

SNOBBIES! Today…we watched…Steven Spielberg’s WEST SIDE STORY!! In Jared’s pick for COZY movies, we talk about a beautiful remake of a 1961 Musical that captured out hearts. The music in this film is actually incredible and very well crafted to sound like the 60’s. If you’re a fan of the original, you’ll love the remake. From fire escape ballads to knife fights in a warehouse, everyone but Ricky was wowed by this film. Be sure to be ready for some tissues if you hadn’t seen any of this story like Caleb and Eric. We talk about the acting, the soundtrack, the shots, the directing, the choreography, ITS ALL HERE! Join us on this journey and fall in love.

Ladies and Gentlemen. This film is perfect. Yes, that may be a tall claim, but few movies come close to the level of attention, feeling, and artistry that this film has reached. A classic from the vault of director Jacques Demy, The Umbrellas of Cherbourg is a masterpiece of song, color, and emotion. In Ethan's pick, we discover just how sad we can get, happy we can feel, and cozy we can become. Eric is surprised at how short the film is, Jared is in love with the colors, Ricky's views change on a character, Caleb goes gaga for Catherine Deneuve's eyes, and Ethan is touched. This film is a great watch and we have so much to say about it. Enjoy this with a loved one or by yourself, just have some tissues handy.

CARRRRPPPEEEE DIIIIIIIEEEEEMMMMM. Seize the day boys! That’s right, we watched Dead Poets Society by: Peter Weir. Get ready for some east coast Autumn, also snow, also study groups huddled close, boys becoming best friends, and a teacher who stokes the fire of their souls, teaches them to think for themselves, and love poetry. This movie was Eric's pick and was basically the reason he started/joined a poetry club in college after watching the movie. SKYLAR joins us on this pod and tells us his greatest acting moment, we call Caleb "Fink," Eric divulges that he showed this movie to a girl he liked, we talk about some heavy topics, and Caleb is angry at the ending. This episode is WILD and packed full of things you're sure to enjoy!

BUDDY THE ELF IS COMING!! That's right, we watched, Jon Favreau's "Elf," in Caleb's pick for COZY movies. We bundled up for this ride through The Seven Levels of the Candy Cane Forrest, past The Sea of Twirly, Swirly Gumdrops, and finally through the Lincoln tunnel. Elf has a special place in our hearts and a sour place in others hearts. It's complex emotion for sure. Caleb says a naughty word and ends up on the Naughty List, Eric drops an Easter Egg?, Jared says Art is dead, and Ricky Hungyyyyy! It's a wild ride today folks. Enjoy!

Snobbies. Get. You’re. Hygge on!!! Wrap up in a sweater, light a candle, get some hot coco cause WE IN COZY MONTH!! We are very happy about this segment. Not necessarily needing to be about Christmas as we approach the Holidays. This film, directed by: Hayao Miyazaki and coming from the Studio Ghibli. We love Ghibli and are really excited to talk about this cozy little adventure. Whether its the pitter patter of the rain, the fuzzy belly of Totoro, or the childlike nature of the main characters, we LOVE this cozy movie. Sijia and Sammy join us on this episode and we discuss past traumas, Ricky cries, Eric loses his mind over the course of the episode, and we conclude that this episode goes off the rails completely. ENJOY!

Snobbies. We have some soleumn news. Unfortunately in the process of recording this weeks episode, one of the audio tracks that contained a full hour of recording, was lost. We apologize for the disappointment, we’re pretty bummed here too. We managed to salvage 20 minutes of material, even though very little of it is about the movie. Bottom line is, we HIGHLY recommend this film and as Jared said in the lost recording, this is in his TOP TOP movies and is 5 start rated. We loved watching and talking about it. We hope you go watch it yourself. This movie was directed by M. Night Shyamalan and came out in 2004. This was one of his best in our opinion. We hope you Enjoy.
