The Two Takes Podcast

Leisure, TV & Film

We're Elyse and David! We love movies and just like talking about them. We do our best to analyze movie characters, cinematography, story, and more and we argue about whether we like the movie or not (we disagree on a lot...). That's really it! We are far from movie experts, we want to make this an everyday listener show, not necessarily for "cinephiles" although everyone is of course welcome! So watch the movies with us and see who you may agree or disagree with!

  1. Two Takes on Captain America Civil War

    Episode 4

    Show notes

    There seems to be a divide on whether or not super hero movies are good or bad these days. We discuss this using one of David's favorite movies, Captain America Civil War, as our focus for this episode. Listen along as we analyze all the characters in this movie and discuss (maybe argue a little...?) about Team Cap versus Team Iron Man. Team David or Team Elyse? Whose side are you on??

    We had fun with this one! One of Elyse's favorite movies, Gone Girl, is the feature on this episode. What does the movie stand for? Is there a good guy, is there a bad guy? Will David like this movie??? Listen and find out (although you can probably guess the answer to that last question...)!
