Octopus, Inc*st, and Existential DreadTime to spin the wheel as Podcast Assemble dive into an all new Anthology (not that we need another)! This week we delve into DL's IMDb list and chose quite possibly the darkest flick yet to be watched. Before that the boys recommend the Disney series Hit Monkey, along with something to even you out after the Main Topic, with James May: Our Man in Japan. Then it’s time to unpack Park Chan-wook’s cinematic gut-punch: Oldboy (2003).Timecodes:<ul><li>Intro: (0:00)</li><li>What have you been up to?: (8:29)</li><li>MAIN TOPIC: Oldboy (2003): (23:04)</li><li>Stupid Plot Summary: (24:11)</li><li>Cast & Crew: (24:45)</li><li>Plot: (25:13)</li><li>What did you expect?: (28:03)</li><li>Big Concepts: (35:57)</li><li>Cinematography: (44:34)</li><li>Concept of Truth: (46:17)</li><li>Fight Choreography: (48:44)</li><li>Tones & Themes: (53:57)</li><li>3 Best & 3 Worst: (55:18)</li><li>Critical Reception: (58:57)</li><li>Better or Worse than Aquaman (2018)?: (59:50)</li><li>Trivia True or False: (1:01:07)</li><li>Wrapping Up: (1:03:53)</li></ul> Main Topic:Oldboy is a brutal, operatic revenge tale soaked in hammer fights, live octopus eating, and existential dread. Part noir, part Greek tragedy, the film follows Oh Dae-su - a man imprisoned for 15 years without explanation, then released into a mystery more disturbing than his sentence. DL's all in on the filmmaking masterclass. Tommy can’t stop thinking about the hallway scene... It’s stylish, shocking, and not for the faint of heart - or the spoiler-averse.Have you seen Oldboy?
