The Silver Linings Playlist
Not every movie wraps up with a neat little bow on the end. Some leave you asking "what the f@#$?!" We're here to find the silver lining in the latter. Join Dustin, Mallie, and Nathan every Monday as we try to find the light at the end of the tunnel for some of cinema's bleakest endings - and have some laughs while doing so.

Showguys - Episode 7: Reappraisal & Reclamation - Take Care of Yourself (And Each Other)
To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the release of 1995's Showgirls, we're releasing this episode from our Patreon for non-members discussing how the film's reception has changed over the past 3 decades. If you like what you hear, sign up for the Patreon today. It's only $1 a month after a 7-day free trial, and you'll gain access to all the episodes of our other mini-series The Secret of the Duuudes all about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle franchise, tournament brackets, behind the scenes bonuses, episodes released early, and yes, more Showgirls.
This podcast has been, in and of itself, a retrospective look back at the film Showgirls, but now we’re actually going to talk about reappraising the film and how it’s viewed today versus the backlash and vitriol from 1995. While the movie has been reevaluated and praised as a cult classic now, there are many other facets that are worth discussing, such as the critical reassessment, the LGBTQIA+ community’s annexation of the film, and more.
