On this episode we celebrate/lament (so we have all of our Film Twitter bases covered) the release of Alex Garland's latest film ANNIHILATION as well as Alicia Vikander's latest film TOMB RAIDER by looking back to their collaboration in EX MACHINA. This very romantic film tells the story of a young ginger man who one day wins the nerd lottery to go drink, dance, and have speed date challenges under the tutelage of The Great Oscar Isaac. To help us retell this story in podcast form we bring on first time guest EMILY of the DEAD RINGERS podcast. No dancing allowed on this episode but an awful lot of ogling for The Great Oscar Isaac.
