The Christina Chronicles Chapter 32 – “Monster”

Well well well, look at all this! It’s another instalment of The Christina Chronicles, our deep dive into the filmography of Christina Ricci! This week – Monster!

 

It’s one we’ve been waiting for. Monster, the critically acclaimed drama best known for Charlize Theron’s Oscar winning performance. It also stars Christina Ricci and that’s why we’re here. One of the very best movies of our series, a terrifically tragic tale. Not one you’d rush back to watch again, but still a classic.

  • 120 – I Miss You The Mission

    37:41
    What would drive a young man to embark on a suicidal mission to the world’s most remote people? Religion is a factor, but the death of John Chau certainly raises more questions than just fanatical faith.  Back in episode 111 The Ethical Considerations of Uncontacted Peoples and The Story of Ishi we briefly spoke about John Chau’s story and mentioned a new documentary about his life and death. That doco is called “The Mission” and now that it’s on Disney+, we thought we better watch it and have a chat. Lonnie liked it, Dylan’s not so sure.  And our Get Amongst It suggestion this week… The documentary “The Mission” available on Disney+.  Contact us at imissyoumanpod@outlook.com.au  Our socials facebook.com/imissyoumanpod instagram.com/imissyoumanpodtwitter.com/imissyoumanpod And you can follow this link to rate the podcast!

  • 119 – I Miss You Arm Wrestling Movies (“Over the Top” and “Golden Arm”)

    36:36
    Last week we walked you through arm wrestling, the concept. This week, we’ll walk you through arm wrestling, the movies.  First up, Sylvester Stallone’s sweaty epic “Over the Top” where his character, an honest trucker, has to arm wrestle to win custody of his son. It’s both as silly and way more serious than that sounds. Then, we look at a recent feminist foray into the world of arm wrestling in “Golden Arm”. It’s much funnier but just as sincere. Both films are surprisingly great! And our Get Amongst It suggestion this week… The two movies, Over the Top and Golden Arm! Contact us at imissyoumanpod@outlook.com.au  Our socials facebook.com/imissyoumanpod instagram.com/imissyoumanpodtwitter.com/imissyoumanpod And you can follow this link to rate the podcast!

    Lonnie and Dylan record a podcast in their spare time so you can safely assume they’re weak and puny. However, some people out there are strong and prove their might through the artform of arm wrestling. This week the fellas have dived in the history and rules of arm wrestling and it’d be great if you listened in. And our Get Amongst It suggestion this week… The Incredibles Lego game. Contact us at imissyoumanpod@outlook.com.au  Our socials facebook.com/imissyoumanpod instagram.com/imissyoumanpodtwitter.com/imissyoumanpod And you can follow this link to rate the podcast!

  • 117 – I Miss You Controversial Spider-Man Hot Takes

    50:33
    We’ve interrogated Batman and Superman, so it’s about time we looked into the friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man. Everyone loves him... but what can be better? Is there too much multiverse stuff? Are we sick of Peter Parker? What about an old Spidey? If it's controversial, if it's a hot take, if it's Spider-Man, we're onto it. And our Get Amongst It suggestion this week… your own coffee machine. Contact us at imissyoumanpod@outlook.com.au  Our socials facebook.com/imissyoumanpod instagram.com/imissyoumanpodtwitter.com/imissyoumanpod And you can follow this link to rate the podcast!

  • 116 – I Miss You Curses

    45:55
    Lonnie found himself with engaging in two stories about curses recently and that got him thinking – what’s the go with curses? Are they real? Are they real if you believe in them? Or does stuff just happen? Have a listen as the fellas figure it out, once and for all. And our Get Amongst It suggestion this week… Nathan Fielder’s “The Curse” and “The Iron Claw” starring Zac Efron.  Contact us at imissyoumanpod@outlook.com.au  Our socials facebook.com/imissyoumanpod instagram.com/imissyoumanpodtwitter.com/imissyoumanpod And you can follow this link to rate the podcast!

    22:47
    It’s another instalment of The Christina Chronicles, our deep dive into the filmography of Christina Ricci! This week – Bel Ami! Robert Pattinson is supposed to be French and he’s supposed to be sexy. We love the guy but in this movie, he’s neither. But Christina is pretty damn good in Bel Ami (unsurprisingly!) Don’t forget to review, subscribe and tell a mate!  Contact us at imissyoumanpod@outlook.com.au Rate our pod!https://ratethispodcast.com/imissyouman  Websitehttps://imissyoumanpodcast.wordpress.com  Socialsfacebook.com/imissyoumanpod instagram.com/imissyoumanpodtwitter.com/imissyoumanpod Lonnie’s other podcast, I Only Like You and Movieshttps://shows.acast.com/ionlylikeyouandmovies https://twitter.com/ionlylikeyoupod  Thanks to Mark Irons for our theme song.

    You may wonder if you’re the arsehole in a given situation. You might even go to Reddit to ask strangers for their take. And maybe you did this, and maybe Lonnie found the question and maybe Dylan is going to finally tell you.
