Welcome to The Rad Wrap: a series on series, where Kylie and Elliott explore films with a common thread. In this episode, they cover a series that is important to them (and that they feel more people should love!). Along the way, they gush about one of their favourite cinema moments, know that good people can do bad things, raise up one of their favourite cinematic characters of all time (despite the bleak journey), and wonder if every movie should just be a five out of five.

The films are: Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011), Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014), War for the Planet of the Apes (2017), and Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes (2024).

Welcome to Bad Dad Rad Dad, where Kylie and Elliott talk about the movies they watch each week while searching for better cinematic dads. Along the way, they fall in love with an all-time on-screen friendship, debate high octane vs. pew pew pew, reflect on the complicated clumsy charm of an old favourite, and feel grateful for an incredible documentary that helps with the complex feelings about the previous film.

This week’s movies are: Drylongso (1998), Aliens (1986), Chasing Amy (1997), and Chasing Chasing Amy (2023).

Welcome back to Daddy Deep Dive: a spoiler-filled unpacking of the most special films. This time, Kylie and Elliott revisit one of the most formative films in their personal cinematic journeys: Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of The Black Pearl. Along the way, they discuss when a movie becomes your whole identity, having grace for still loving the things we now feel complicated about, the inherent gender fuckery of the franchise, and how to mutiny your bad dads.

Welcome to Bad Dad Rad Dad, where Kylie and Elliott talk about the movies they watch each week while searching for better cinematic dads. Along the way, they see a sexy movie, need a palette cleanser after a tough watch, hear Palestinean women tell their stories, wonder what mall they'd spend the zombie apocalypse in, catch Elliott's favourite biopic in the theatre, and reflect on what kind of silly is the kind of silly for them.

This week’s movies are: Challengers (2024), Femme (2023), Stitching Palestine (2017), Dawn of the Dead (1979), Erin Brockovich (2000), and Spaceballs (1987).

Welcome to Bad Dad Rad Dad, where Kylie and Elliott talk about the movies they watch each week while searching for better cinematic dads. Along the way, they thank their local indie for curating their lives, come into their love of 50s movies, raise a fist alongside film anarchy, laugh the hardest they have in recent memory, and do a double feature of a new and an old horror flick. Also, Kylie hears her dead dad's voice for the first time in thirteen years (and Elliott hears his voice for the first time ever).

This week’s movies are: Roman Holiday (1953), The People's Joker (2022), Problemista (2023), Pride (2014), Humane (2024), and Slither (2006).

Witness the glory of the Butterdome!

Along the way, they feel complicated about a big budget A24 film, celebrate National Canadian Film Day, see the Canadian premiere of their most anticipated movie of the year, experience the uncanniness of seeing their own city on screen, and watch a film that just isn't for them (even if it is for other people).

This week’s movies are: Civil War (2024), I Used To Be Funny (2024), I Saw The TV Glow (2024), Before I Change My Mind (2022), and Marketa Lazarová (1967).

Welcome to The Rad Wrap: a series on series, where Kylie and Elliott explore films with a common thread. In this episode, they are joined by their friend and fellow educator Thomas Wishloff. They reflect on Thomas's Metro Cinema series Slowed Down Sundays and the four films in this year's curation. Along the way, they ask what it means to have faith in things, discuss a movie worth writing a master's thesis on, wish for cinema debrief spaces, and think about what lens to watch a film through.

The films in Slowed Down Sundays 2024 are: Solaris (1972), A Brighter Summer Day (1991), I Do Not Care If We Go Down In History As Barbarians (2018), and Once Upon A Time In Anatolia (2018).
