Mallory Rubin (2:06)

Yes.

Joanna Robinson (2:07)

We're going to talk about that. You're going to watch it from my lap, as we mentioned with Buffy Pod last week. And then we're also going to talk about some of the other horror movies that you've been watching lately. And then what I was going to ask the bad babies to do, hobbitsanddragons.tml.com, is send some other suggestions of other horror movies that you should maybe check out.

You have watched Nose for Autu.

SPEAKER_5 (2:28)

Yes, and Weapons.

Joanna Robinson (2:29)

And Weapons. You're going to watch Obsession.

SPEAKER_5 (2:31)

I am.

Joanna Robinson (2:32)

Maybe Backrooms.

Mallory Rubin (2:33)

If time permitting, yeah.

Joanna Robinson (2:34)

But what are some other recent horror classics that you think Mallory would enjoy that hopefully does not have any animal mutilation in it?

Mallory Rubin (2:41)

I would prefer to avoid that, though I know that's waiting for me in one of the films we just mentioned.

Joanna Robinson (2:46)

The Vvvvvvvitch you're thinking of watching?

Mallory Rubin (2:48)

That was, I would say, there were a lot of recommendations to check that out in the Instagram comments for the weapons IG Reel that I posted. I've just dipped a toe into the bloody waters and-

Joanna Robinson (3:03)

Let's take the plunge.

Mallory Rubin (3:05)

I'm eager to keep waiting further.

Joanna Robinson (3:09)

Let's just dive in like Colin Firth's Mr. Darcy in a cool pond of make it horror movies. So that's what we're doing this week.

SPEAKER_5 (3:16)

I'm excited. I am.

Joanna Robinson (3:17)

Then more Lanterns coverage.

Mallory Rubin (3:19)

Yeah.

Joanna Robinson (3:21)

Something else that I haven't figured out yet while you're gone on vacation.

Mallory Rubin (3:25)

That's right. Will you just do a direct to camera reflection on how much you miss me while I'm gone?

Joanna Robinson (3:31)

It's the Avengers Endgame re-release.

Mallory Rubin (3:35)

That's right.

Joanna Robinson (3:36)

Maybe I'll just spend the podcast recounting the plot of Avengers Endgame. Does that sound like a good use of my time? Just solo into the camera.

Mallory Rubin (3:45)

Sounds like a pretty popular podcast.

Joanna Robinson (3:46)

I feel like the runtime will be about correct for one of our podcasts. Yeah.

Mallory Rubin (3:51)

Sounds great. I look forward to consuming it from afar.

I'll miss you while I'm gone. When I get back, we get to, we're just mere days away at that point from Vision Quest. We get to revisit WandaVision. What a thrill.

Joanna Robinson (4:03)

It's your birthday, then you're going on vacation, and then it's our anniversary, and then it's my birthday.

Mallory Rubin (4:08)

Half a decade together.

Joanna Robinson (4:09)

That's wild.

Mallory Rubin (4:11)

We have yet to make a dinner plan. We need to do that.

Joanna Robinson (4:13)

Sure.

Mallory Rubin (4:13)

We need to settle on the date night. Should we invite the team?

Joanna Robinson (4:19)

Yes. They're here and they're listening to us. So yes, I think we should invite them.
