Spoilerpiece Theatre Episode 49: Inside Out

“Spoilerpiece Theatre” is a weekly movie podcast where I talk about new releases with fellow BOFCA critics Dave Riedel and Kris Jenson. We don’t give a shit about spoilers. We just want to talk about the movies.

In Episode 49 below, Charlie Nash of Movie Mezzanine, Edge on the Net, All Things Horror, and Cinematic Essential joins me and Kris to take on Inside Out, Dope, and Me and Earl and the Dying Girl. We start by bitching about jerks who spoil Game of Thrones before we share why Pixar’s film Inside Out moved us to tears. All three of us enjoyed it so much that we can’t think of a single bad thing to say about it. Next up, Kris and Charlie summarize Dope, while attempting to separate its promising parts from the misfires it makes and detours it takes. Then they wrap things up with the abhorrent Me and Earl and the Dying Girl, a picture that’s so bad it makes Kris angry for once. He and Charlie spoilerpiece what makes it so awful for me, which gives me some pretty awful ideas of my own for what to do with it when it comes out on DVD.

Evan Crean

Hello! My name is Evan Crean. By day I work for a marketing agency, but by night, I’m a film critic based in Boston, MA. Since 2009, I have written hundreds of movie reviews and celebrity interviews for Starpulse.com. I have also contributed pieces to NewEnglandFilm.com and to The Independent, as a writer and editor. I maintain an active Letterboxd account too. In addition to publishing short form work, I am a co-author of the book Your ’80s Movie Guide to Better Living, which is available on CreateSpace and Amazon. The book is the first in a series of lighthearted self-help books for film fans, which distills advice from ’80s movies on how to tackle many of life’s challenges. On top of writing, I co-host and edit the weekly film podcast Spoilerpiece Theatre with two other Boston film critics. I’m a founding member and the current treasurer for the Boston Online Film Critics Association as well.
