The Dissolve: Podcasts - A podcast by The Dissolve

Despite diminished box-office grosses, laments about Hollywood’s addiction to sequels and remakes, and portents of doom from Steven Spielberg and George Lucas, Dissolve podcast host Scott Tobias had a really good time at the movies this summer. But what of the other Dissolvers? On this week’s podcast, we discuss the hits and misses of Summer 2014 and cast an eye on the future. And with the site heavy on Elmore Leonard coverage—namely, our Movie Of The Week, Steven Soderbergh’s Out Of Sight, and Life Of Crime, a new adaptation of Leonard’s The Switch—we thought it would be a good time to reflect on the author’s fascinating legacy on screen. The game this week asks our panel to differentiate between Troy McClure movies, straight-to-video movies, and made-up movies, and we wrap it up as usual with our quick-fire recommendation segment, 30 Seconds To Sell.
