I Can't Believe You Haven't Seen...
Ever had a conversation with someone about a movie you love that they haven't seen, causing you to say "I can't believe you haven't seen that!" Jess and Matt have...in fact, it's happened throughout their entire relationship!
Join them as they have conversations about what the new viewer thought about different aspects of each movie they watch, touching on everything from themes and cultural perspectives to the filmmaking and characters in front of the camera. They may even discover some new favourites...or question the sanity of the other person's choices.

I Can't Believe You Haven't Seen...
Episode #003 - Inside Out
While she has seen many Pixar films, including most of the other ones released in the 2010s, Jess had never seen Inside Out. She was, however, very familiar with getting random songs and ad jingles stuck in her head for no good reason. Thankfully, this movie helped explain that! She felt seen...and attacked.
As you can imagine with a movie about our own emotions, she had all sorts of responses! She was wheeze-laughing less than 3 minutes in because of Sadness (the character, not the emotion...), she was perturbed at Riley's parents, she was annoyed at Joy (the character, not the emotion...) for being a control freak, and she was emotional at Riley's imaginary friend Bing Bong ("That Cotton Candy Elephant Dolphin Thing"). Who would be her voice of Anger (the character, not the...look, you get it), and would it be constantly reading the newspaper? We chatted about all these thoughts and more before they went off to be stored in long term memory!
