Just a casual reminder to watch Your Name. (2016) (yes there's punctuation in the title).

Also if you want to hear me gush about it and pick out just some of the incredible details there's this podcast.

5 Centimeters Per Your Name

Maybe don't watch this unless you've seen Your Name. (2016), but this is a fun blending of comparative shots in 5 Centimeters Per Second (2007) and Your Name.

I made this accidentally a few years back when writing an unfinished essay. Originally was just for gifs but...

It was a pleasant surprise that this episode has not one, but THREE pitches for queer Ocean's movies!

Queer Up with Lily & Robin @queeruppodcast.bsky.social · Jun 25

Why is Ocean's 8 so bad and straight? How can Ocean's Eleven still feel even gayer, despite not even trying? And who should be cast in our all-queer reboot? Answers to all these questions in our latest episode, which is out now

What would a world built and inhabited entirely by robots be like? It turns out, very much like the one we live in now - gender roles included.

In the new episode, we discuss the mostly forgotten 2005 animated film Robots with some very confused gender politics.

Let The Right One In is one of the most beloved vampire love stories of all time. And yet, it seems many have forgotten or missed the intended queerness at its core.

In this episode, we investigate the queer history of John Ajvide Lindqvist's masterful debut.

In this episode, we look at the Sherlock Holmes films directed by Guy Ritchie. We discuss why the first one is such a delightful romp and dig into the behind-the-scenes drama that forced Sherlock deeper into the closet.
