Send us a textTaking a break from Fozziwig's Rubber Chicken Factory, Mark tries to figure out why The Muppet Christmas Carol is so heartwarming, how the film deals with the difficulties of adapting the original story, and why a muppet who can only communicate in high-pitched squeaks can make him emotional.https://markoveranalysesfilm.buzzsprout.com/https://www.markoveranalysesstory.com/https://twitter.com/overanalysefilm

Send us a textThe funny thing about overanalysing Pulp Fiction is the little differences as Mark tries to figure what makes the film so iconic, how it is a perfect example of 5 act structure, and why it drives him so, so crazy when perfectly well meaning people say that this film "breaks the rules".https://markoveranalysesfilm.buzzsprout.com/https://www.markoveranalysesstory.com/https://twitter.com/overanalysefilm

Send us a textOveranalysis is a hard thing to come by these days as Mark returns to figure out what makes The Thing so paranoia-inducing, how MacReady is defined against the monster, and why Blair had Chat GPT in 1982.https://markoveranalysesfilm.buzzsprout.com/https://www.markoveranalysesstory.com/https://twitter.com/overanalysefilm
