Why Wicked Act 2 Works Better Than Wicked: For Good?
The Legendary Ladies Podcast
It's the episode you've been waiting for! The Legendary Ladies finally get a chance to sit down and talk about Wicked: For Good. Amy, Kat, and Morgan (who were simply agog and obsessed with Wicked Part I) have plenty to discuss, including the most important point - did Part II hold up? The hosts chat about whether or not the general public vs. theater fans could approach the movie differently, as an "Act II" rather than simply another movie. They also talk about the lack of a "viral" factor - how come, a month after Part I, the Loathing choreography was still making the rounds around the...

Heated Rivalry PilotPod: Was It, Quite Possibly, Perfect?
The Legendary Ladies Podcast
At the internet’s behest, Kat and Amy sat down to watch the first episode of “Heated Rivalry”, the queer sports series that is taking HBO Max by storm. The Legendary Ladies step into the show blind, with only a marginal idea of what they were getting into - and they were absolutely thrilled. The hosts chat about how the series feels like a genuine translation of a book to screen, the tasteful artistry of the sexual depictions, and discuss the queer aspects of the show that can invite audiences of all types to consume the series.

PilotPod: Is Yellowjackets Cannibalism Mystery Too Brutal?
The Legendary Ladies Podcast
The Legendary Ladies are going to New Jersey! Well, 1996 New Jersey. As requested by one of our fans, we are doing a PilotPod for Yellowjackets, which has the added fun of existing in the [sort of] home town of Morgan's husband. Amy and Morgan chat about the pilot, asking whether or not the show captures you enough to keep watching, discuss if this is a show better read than watched, and talk about the dual timelines of the show. All this and more (including a vivid description of the time Amy broke her leg...sorry) on this week's episode. Next episode? WICKED. Is there something you...

Exploring Guillermo Del Toro's Frankenstein From the Mind of a Theater Nerd
The Legendary Ladies Podcast
It's time for Amy's spooky season pick - and we don't really mind that it is halfway through November. As anyone who listens to the podcast (or knows Amy at all) could guess, she was so excited to watch Guillermo Del Toro's Frankenstein; it is not, however, Kat's cup of tea (again, as you all should know). But that doesn't really matter, because as it turns out, Amy can talk about the film for literally 45 minutes almost entirely on her own. It's a fascinating look into the brain of two storytellers, one who loves gothic horror, and the other who may not love, but deeply respects it. Explore...

The Legendary Ladies Podcast
The Legendary Ladies are back with a legendary pick for Kat's spooky season movie choice. This week, Amy, Kat, and Morgan review 10 Cloverfield Lane which, despite being released almost 10 years ago, one of the hosts had never seen. The ladies discuss whether or not the story was predictable, if being a clearly labeled part of the Cloverfield saga helped or hindered believability, and if the ending ruined the film.

Sinners: Perfect As Is - Or Ready For a Sequel?
The Legendary Ladies Podcast
The Legendary Ladies are back with one of their best Spooky Season's yet! For Morgan's pick, the hosts watched Sinners (some when it came out earlier this year, and some the night before they recorded). The ladies discuss what made Sinners such a successful film, what it means to have the name of Ryan Coogler on your project, the power of music in filmmaking, and whether or not Sinners needs a sequel (which, if it happens, should absolutely be named Saints).
