Turns out by listening to people who don’t look, think or live lives a lot like mine talk about movies, I can find a bunch of new movies I want to watch-even if I’m rewatching movies I’ve seen before through new eyes. While I still enjoy plenty of those shows (probably because they are made by and for guys exactly like me), there are also movie podcasts from a diverse array of voices: Black men, Black women, gay dudes, etc. And increasingly, one of my favourite ways to do that is via podcasts.Įver since two guys with annoying voices hooked up mics to a computer, there have been film podcasts, but today-some 15 years into the podcast boom-there are plenty of them that go well beyond the familiar can-we-still-really-call-them-niches (laughing at crappy movies obsessively analyzing the Oscars). Like sourcing new music, figuring out what’s worth adding to your watch queue beyond the latest blockbusters and award-winners takes time, effort and attention. I can safely say that you will never truly run out of good movies to watch-but only if you know how to find good movies to watch. If, while scrolling through Netflix’s latest offerings during another in a countless series of evenings in, you felt like you’d already watched every worthwhile film in existence, well, you’d be wrong, but you’d also kinda be right.
