As the little podcast that could hits the century mark, the Schmovie gang takes a moment to ponder some films, genres and clichés that get us every time.

After that end-of-year amazingness, we find ourselves looking cautiously forward to the first few months of a New Year. Listen in to hear the films we’re betting on in the first quarter.
