The Mikes took the Moms to the movies, and despite some worries going in, we had a grand old time. We chat about our theater going experience and give this the full OSP treatment featuring our Oscar Lens and our usual non-spoiler section first. The Mom, Mom, & Oscar podcast may have been born tonight. Also Mom wore her best jewelry, Mike 1 wore his finest sweatshirt, and the movie version of Downton Abbey won our hearts, if not our minds in its big screen debut. We begin with a far too long Cast & Crew rundown to hopefully refresh show lovers & orient folks coming into this series for the first time, but if that doesn’t work for ya, then Mike 1 relished the chance to bust my balls. Our non-spoiler section also comments upon our low expectations going in, and we review the production values, performances, & script with an Oscar Lens upon a few potential nominations before we dive into the plot in spoilers. And what a shocking plot it was...umm, because it wasn’t all that shocking at all. For lovers of the show, you’ll get a chance to visit Downton once again and catch up with all your favorite characters. Director Julian Fellowes gives one of the more fan servicey tributes to a TV turned movie that we’ve ever seen, and it makes for a good time at the cinema.
