Hey everybody!
Been a busy couple weeks for all of us at the Dr. Samuel Bultch, D.D.S. Memorial Foundation! We in the archives are thrilled to present one of the good doctor's few forays into the world of video games: his (ultimately cut) lyrics for the main theme for Outer Wilds. While he didn't consider himself a gamer (his journals indicate that he tried the original arcade cabinet for Q*bert in the mid-80's but quickly abandoned the project after finding ...

On this episode of Fancy Movie Time with Brian and A.J., the fancy lads strap on their wings and fly headlong into the rabbit-infested no-man's land between East and West Berlin as they cover Wim Wenders' treatise on the meaning of life and the sexiness of trapeze: Wings of Desire (1987). Does the film's timeless feel and incredible use of Peter Falk make it a Fancy Feast? Or does its verbose dialogue and meandering narrative make it a Failure to Fancy? One thing's for ...

Patrick Willems (Night of the Coconut) returns to finish some unfinished business as he and the lads fight off the deep conservatism and unending baby ninja armies of Dreamworks’ 2021 babypalooza: The Boss Baby: Family Business. Topics include the nebulous target audience, the uncanny animation, and the consequences of pivoting from the increasingly bonkers Boss Baby lore to the terrors of…school choice???

Hey everybody!
To prep for this week's episode on The Boss Baby: Family Business featuring Youtube's own Patrick Willems, we thought it might be fun to catch everyone up on the plot of the first The Boss Baby and its intricately complex web of lore. In that spirit, please give a listen to this (ultimately cut) theme song from The Boss Baby, with lyrics by none other than Long Island's favorite dentist/lyricist: Dr. Samuel Bultch, D.D.S...

On this episode of Fancy Movie Time with Brian and A.J., the Fancy Lads grab their bikes and cycle straight into the nightmare of post-war Italy as they cover Vittorio De Sica's neo-realist classic: Bicycle Thieves. Does the film's uncompromising vision and fully-realized world make it a Fancy Feast? Or does its commitment to realism and downer ending make it a Failure to Fancy? One thing's for sure: this is the most Italian episode yet.

On this episode of Fancy Movie Time with Brian and A.J., the Fancy Lads recruit Josiah Sutton (Fruitless, Mammonberg) to cover a staple of the mumblecore genre: Noah Baumbach's Frances Ha. Do Greta Gerwig's charms and razor-sharp writing make this movie a Fancy Feast? Or do its mumblecore trappings make it a Failure to Fancy? One things for sure: watching this movie has put us into DEEP credit card debt and we didn't even get to see Puss in Boots in French!...
