This week, Shana and j. celebrate completing three full years of the podcast with our annual Stacks Awards! In part one (0:00-1:30:47) we break programming a bit to finish off our coverage of the 1966 Ultra Q TV series with its final three episodes. In part two (1:30:48-3:10:09) we go in-depth on Lana Wachowski's fascinating 2021 legasequel The Matrix Resurrections, in addition to talking about Wolf Gremm's 1982 dystopian satire Kamikaze '89, Dave Green's surprisingly enjoyable 2016 live-action sequel Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows, Michael J. Murphy's third and final stab at his favourite chivalric legend, 1999's Tristan, Penny Lane's idiosyncratic quasi-animated documentary on old-school huckster John R. Brinkley in Nuts!, and finally Dennis Hopper's 1990 overheated sleazy neo-noir The Hot Spot. In part three, in addition to our usual discussion of what we've watched since last time and our picks for next, we go very extended with the 3rd Stacks Awards, ranking the best and worst from the 200 or so movies we've covered in the past year.
