In this episode of Meaning Of The Movie, we dive into one of the most debated films of the last decade — The Last Jedi. It divided the Star Wars fanbase... and it divides us too. Some of us love it. Some of us aren't. But either way, there's a lot to talk about: bold choices, broken expectations, and big themes about failure, legacy, and hope. Whether you're Team Rian or not, this conversation goes deep into what makes The Last Jedi so fascinating.

In this episode of Meaning of the Movie, Rob Stennett and Andrew Harmon dig into Sinners, this spring’s breakout film that blends Southern grit, gospel, and gore. We talk about what makes the characters so compelling, why the setting feels lived-in, and how the movie uses vampires not just for scares—but to explore sin, judgment, and redemption.

We also get into why “survive the night” movies are so satisfying, how Sinners fits (and breaks) vampire movie tropes, and the magic of a great actor/director combo. It’s a wild ride of blood, blues, and big questions—and we’re here for all of it.

In this episode, we delve into the Season 2 finale of Severance, "Cold Harbor." Did we finally get the answers we were seeking? We explore the intense conflict between innies and outies, the complexities of falling in love within the confines of severance, and the show's unsettling allusions to corporate control and hints at actual slavery. We also reflect on the emotional weight of the finale, our interpretations of its deeper meanings, and our predictions for what Season 3 might hold. Join us as we dissect this thought-provoking conclusion and share our perspectives on an incredible season of TV.
