Our goal is to save you time and money by sharing our thoughts and recommendations on which movies to race to theaters for, which to watch at home and those to actively avoid. What makes Alternate Ending different from other film podcasts? Well, we're not 5 dudes in a room talking about our passion for Fight Club and Braveheart. We're two dudes, and a lady, of which our tastes are quite varied. Rob, the film-school dropout, has seen an absurd amount of movies, and if we're being honest, rounds out our Fight Club fan-base.

He has also given Mandy the dubious privilege of perhaps being the only person alive who has seen 1941 , but not Raiders of the Lost Ark . Tune in to hear various theories on what the hell Steven thought he was doing with this film, how much of it actually works, a highly educational digression on John Williams, and why Zev is already gearing up for a second viewing.","meta_description":"June's Your Movie Rocks welcomes back Zev Burrows, who has used his guest power to achieve two very important tasks at once: first, he has made himself a…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":3490,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/alternate-ending-movie-review-podcast-485029/episodes/your-movie-rocks-1941/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/alternate-ending-movie-review-podcast-485029/your-movie-rocks-1941.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
