Join me, Aaron Covington, the co-writer of CREED, to talk about white movies. What is a white movie? It's simple! Movies made for and by white people. In America that's a vast majority of the movies! I am often joined by my good friend and cinephile Bernard Harris and in our movie reviews we ask one important question of these films and that is "How white is this movie?"

Season 6 · Episode 72

Thursday, January 16, 2025 • Duration 01:08:34

This week we watch Double Indemnity. A film noir classic! It has everything; sharp banter, moody lighting, a femme fatale, a trouble male lead, and a staunch detective figure slowly unraveling the case!

We dive into what makes this so memorable. With stellar performances from its leads, but that's for a 1944 film? Can modern audience still relate?

Movies back then were more literary then movies today. This often led to more unexpected plot twists. They had to keep an audience engaged and they could not rely on computer generate effects. They had a different pacing and most notably budget restraints. Does that make the storytelling less enjoyable?

And what does this movie say about American society? This button down world it presents, but who are the rule breakers and how are they dealt with? Why do they break the rules? Where do minorities fit in?

And lastly we return to Black casting, the first podcast to do Black recasts of movies!

Now, go rent the movie and enjoy our talk about Double Indemnity

Man of Steel (2013) a watchable mess | Zach Snyder | Henry Cavil | Amy Adams

Season 6 · Episode 71

Tuesday, January 7, 2025 • Duration 01:33:17

Man of Steel brought out some deep seated truths!

We talk about heroes and the nature of heroism. We question Zach Synder's interpretation while recognizing the things he's great at, iconography, visuals, great individual moments and a truly epic scale.

Man Of Steel tells the story of Kah-el becoming the hero we know as Superman.

Listen in as we break down the run time, the true nature of Superman (to us, at least), what we would have like to have seen or done differently and if the movie asks us to fill in the blanks where we don't want to and answers questions that we don't ask!

Also, does Superman have a secret identity? Does he need one in Zach Snyder's Universe?

Oh, and we love Amy Adams!

How white is AVATAR by James Cameron

Season 5 · Episode 62

Monday, October 14, 2024 • Duration 01:03:11

Avatar!
James Cameron!
$$$$$!!

James Cameron is a great filmmaker, right? Why is he so often overlooked in conversations about great filmmakers? And franchise creators!

We go pretty deep into James Cameron's legacy and how he created his own genre of films.

We also tackle the film, Avatar, itself with it's myriad of racial issues, some of which I'm sure came to your mind just upon seeing the title!

Despite this it made a billion dollars, fam. Easily! Why?!

We look at the appeal of the film, the leap in technology required to make the film and how writing it for a younger audience definitely PAID off.

What we thought would be a quick episode turned out to be a long discussion. Tap in and let us know your thoughts!

FRANCHISE TALK: STAR WARS

Season 5 · Episode 59

Sunday, September 15, 2024 • Duration 21:57

Star Wars: Did the New Trilogy Miss the Mark?
In our latest episode, we dive into the galaxy far, far away for the very first time! Welcome to our own "Star Wars: Episode One." We explore the highs and lows of the new Star Wars trilogy and ask the burning questions: Did the new trilogy not include enough Skywalkers? Should it have mirrored the prequels a bit more and the original three a bit less? Was there enough tragedy to really make us care?

Join us as we navigate through the intricate lore, character arcs, and the ever-evolving legacy of the Skywalker saga. Whether you're a die-hard fan or just curious about the latest installments, this episode is packed with insights, debates, and, of course, a bit of WTF moments that you love from Unscripted Pivots.

Tuesday, September 3, 2024 • Duration 01:11:38

Gladiator is peak dad cinema, no one is aruging that, but it's also an audacious film. Who gets to tell what stories in history? We look at the classic film's depiction of race and ethnicity. We talk about America's self-proclaimed right to tell any history it wants to and what that's about.
