Paul

Django Unchained – Nuts & Schultz · Feb 2022

"Oti says the slurs (Julio's add-on) are justified in a slave's story, but questions Django letting other Black people die to save Broomhilda; KT calls it a classic trolley problem when it's someone you love."

Inglourious Basterds – Miniature Strudel · Feb 2022

"Read with Julio's racial slurs. KT finds the n-word moment justified in context, like Pulp Fiction's Confederate shop, but mocks Aldo's kraut-only insults as surface-level; Oti says that's all they care to know."

Kill Bill – All Bride Out · Feb 2022

"You take Paul's and Julio's questions to Asian people here: KT calls it ignorance and over-the-top caricature rather than quips, from the Cantonese exchange to "Japanese fatheads", and Oti agrees."

Jackie Brown – Top Grier · Feb 2022

"You struggle to find any race-related quips, Julio's racial slurs included: Oti reads only societal undertones in how the detectives and court treat Jackie, and KT credits more considered storytelling."

Pulp Fiction – Big Gimpin’ · Feb 2022

"Taking Paul's question with Julio's racial slurs, Oti says no, except in the pawnshop with the Confederate flag, where KT agrees it felt authentically racist; Oti thinks only Django might justify it."

Reservoir Dogs – Just the Tip · Feb 2022

"With Julio's racial slurs grouped in, KT says the quips aren't justified and add nothing to Reservoir Dogs, and Oti calls them a shock-factor habit that is simply his style."

Hunt for the Wilderpeople – Ricky wicket · Feb 2021

"Oti floats Ricky, but KT says he's no fool and names the three hunters as the lovable fools, later adding Kahu's dad, with his pretend-capture selfies, if he qualifies."

Jojo Rabbit – If all Elsa fails · Feb 2021

"Oti says Taika's Hitler isn't a lovable fool either, and KT jokes that you don't want to be the one on tape calling Taika's character a lovable fool."

Boy – Regionally flavoured Chuppa tea · Feb 2021

"KT names Alamein as the lovable fool; Oti flatly disagrees, seeing a man who has let himself go and is looking for an exit door without thinking of what he leaves behind."

Thor – Put a Korg in it · Feb 2021

"Oti points straight to Korg, and KT adds Thor, too attractive for anyone to tell him he's goofy, which Oti likens to Jon Hamm's bubble in 30 Rock; KT says it knocks it out of the park."
