Under the Wheels Episode 30: The Midnight Sky

Matt and Gabe try to find the meaning of The Midnight Sky. Other topics include a discussion on difficult videogames, the merits of drinking straight coffee, independent theaters, Neal Breen movies, Jack Kirby's writing abilities, why some Netflix projects look generic and others turn out unique, the bad filmmaking of Robert Rodriguez, George Cloony: The Last Old-School Movie Star (and his somewhat rocky ability to direct movies), the cliche of science fiction movies in space on IMAX, how Anthony Minghella walked so Tom Hooper could ruin movies, Matt SHAMELESSLY shills for HBO Max, the depressing state of "the industry", the rollercoaster that is Azerbaijani television, Brad Pitt's track record as a producer, and Barry Jenkins getting paid.
