Movie Joust! is a movie podcast where critics with clashing tastes challenge hype, legacy, and consensus — forcing films to earn their reputation. Each week, Atlanta film critics debate new releases, awards contenders, and cultural flashpoints in cinema, putting “prestige,” popularity, and critical buzz under pressure. From legacy filmmakers to divisive adaptations, Movie Joust! isn’t about polite agreement — it’s about sharp takes, real disagreement, and figuring out who movies are actually for. If you’re tired of plot recaps and safe opinions, welcome to the fight.
