&lt;p&gt;This week we are gallivanting along the French Riviera— or standing outside in torrential downpours, depending on how you look at it— as Patches checks in with an update from the &lt;strong&gt;Cannes Film Festival&lt;/strong&gt;. Katey and Da7e talk &lt;strong&gt;spoiler culture&lt;/strong&gt;, David waxes poetic over &lt;strong&gt;Before Midnight&lt;/strong&gt;, Da7e explains a bit about the future of zombie &lt;strong&gt;Community&lt;/strong&gt;, and we have a lightning round inspired by &lt;strong&gt;Fast &amp; Furious 6&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://mattpatches.com/post/51086433281</link><guid>http://mattpatches.com/post/51086433281</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 15:18:00 -0400</pubDate><category>Cannes Film Festival</category><category>Before Midnight</category><category>Fast &amp; Furious 6</category><category>Star Trek Into darkness</category><category>spoilers</category><category>movies</category><category>film</category><category>podcast</category><category>operation kino</category></item><item><title>Sophisticates #35: Happy Birthday, Sad Birthday</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Listen!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In today’s episode, Rajan and Patches wish Ryan a happy birthday and reveal Rajan’s total distaste for birthday messages. Have annual wishes been forever changed?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This week we’d like you to join us for a ride on our hydroplane, old sport, as we sweep up the confetti and champagne glasses left over from our screening of &lt;strong&gt;The Great Gatsby&lt;/strong&gt;. Did &lt;strong&gt;Baz Luhrmann’s&lt;/strong&gt; experiment with 3D actually work with his maximalist aesthetic? Are the crazy party sequences great, or great to the point that they’ll make you sick? And who is this Gatsby fellow anyway? (It’s &lt;strong&gt;Leonardo DiCaprio&lt;/strong&gt;.) All that, plus your answers to our lightning round questions about other books you read in high school that ought to become movies.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://mattpatches.com/post/50169075509</link><guid>http://mattpatches.com/post/50169075509</guid><pubDate>Sat, 11 May 2013 11:01:20 -0400</pubDate><category>the+great+gatsby</category><category>Leonardo DiCaprio</category><category>Baz Luhrmann</category><category>movie review</category><category>review</category><category>film</category><category>movies</category><category>podcast</category><category>Operation Kino</category><category>books</category></item><item><title>BEHROOOOOOOZ.

&lt;p&gt;“On this week’s episode of The Golden Briefcase, Tim and Jeremy are joined by guest Matt Patches of Hollywood.com and the Operation Kino podcast to go through their latest picks of the week, the newest in DVD &amp; Blu-ray releases, new trailers for &lt;strong&gt;Gavin Hood’s Ender’s Game&lt;/strong&gt; and Wright/Pegg/Frost’s &lt;strong&gt;The World’s End&lt;/strong&gt; and much more. The main topic of the night was a discussion on the work of Australian director &lt;strong&gt;Baz Luhrmann&lt;/strong&gt;, in honor of his rendition of &lt;strong&gt;The Great Gatsb&lt;/strong&gt;y hitting theaters this weekend. The guys go over what they feel to be Baz’s high and low points and where they want to see him go after Gatsby. Enjoy!”&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://mattpatches.com/post/50091488945</link><guid>http://mattpatches.com/post/50091488945</guid><pubDate>Fri, 10 May 2013 11:01:39 -0400</pubDate><category>moulin+rouge</category><category>Baz Luhrmann</category><category>Ender's Game</category><category>The World's End</category><category>The Golden Briefcase</category><category>podcast</category></item><item><title>I saw this shot in the Gravity trailer and knew we had a...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/fabe85b0991fbc3d8bd59c79a8ed7dfb/tumblr_mmk4wgezf41rswkqao1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;I saw this shot in the &lt;strong&gt;Gravity&lt;/strong&gt; trailer and knew we had a masterpiece on our hands.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://mattpatches.com/post/50052695650</link><guid>http://mattpatches.com/post/50052695650</guid><pubDate>Thu, 09 May 2013 20:48:00 -0400</pubDate><category>Gravity</category><category>movies</category><category>movie trailer</category><category>sci-fi</category><category>Wilson</category><category>Cast Aaway</category></item><item><title>Sophisticates #34: Natural Reaction or Ultimate Sign of Boredom?</title><description>&lt;p&gt;The traumatic story of the time I yawned in AP US History class.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In today’s episode, Ryan, Rajan, and Patches discuss &lt;strong&gt;the politeness of yawning.&lt;/strong&gt; Unlike the types of lectures that might induce a yawn, this podcast is spirited.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This week we bring in Movies.com mastermind Erik Davis to &lt;strong&gt;look at the year’s crop of summer movies&lt;/strong&gt;, and which trends we see emerging by the time the weather cools down again. Katey talks over her first time watching &lt;strong&gt;Road House&lt;/strong&gt;, David sings the indie praises of &lt;strong&gt;An Oversimplification of Her Beauty&lt;/strong&gt;, and we test our memories of the year’s films so far with a quick round of Patches Matches. All that plus a lightning round inspired by The Great Gatsby.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://mattpatches.com/post/50040604825</link><guid>http://mattpatches.com/post/50040604825</guid><pubDate>Thu, 09 May 2013 18:07:58 -0400</pubDate><category>Road House</category><category>An Oversimplification of Her Beauty</category><category>movies</category><category>film</category><category>Operation Kino</category><category>podcast</category></item><item><title>Ryan Gosling Won’t Eat His Breakfast Is The Best Ryan...</title><description>&lt;iframe src="https://vine.co/v/bQP6DZv2jgH/card" width="400" height="400"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.hollywood.com/news/celebrities/55012946/ryan-gosling-won-t-eat-his-cereal-is-the-best-ryan-gosling-meme"&gt;Ryan Gosling Won’t Eat His Breakfast Is The Best Ryan Gosling Meme&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://mattpatches.com/post/50038557211</link><guid>http://mattpatches.com/post/50038557211</guid><pubDate>Thu, 09 May 2013 17:41:11 -0400</pubDate><category>Ryan Gosling</category><category>meme</category><category>LOL</category><category>celebs</category></item><item><title>Whoa.
