Y’all have been waiting for it. We finally present you the most prestigious awards of them all, our very own Soupie Awards!

We’re doing a little series of hidden gems over the course of 2024, starting with “Polite Society.” Writer and director Nida Manzoor calls portions of this films a “joyful kung fu Bollywood epic.”

This week we are discussing two wildly different films: “The Greatest Night in Pop” (Netflix) and “Aniara” (max).

With the Film Independent Spirit Awards quickly approaching Susan, Cort, and Erik have some recommendations for you to check out. Which actor tops your list for “Best Lead Performance”?  Will American Fiction take top honors for “Best Feature” or will another 2023 film take the prize?

This week the Geek Girls are discussing season 5 of “Fargo” and their own code of look, don’t touch. Because you wouldn’t want to drink a zombie virus, now, would you?

We’re discussing the Golden Globes, the Critics Choice Awards, and the Emmys! Who won an EGOT? Did Better Call Saul get any love finally? Which films seem to be frontrunners for Oscars? What were the best TV shows of 2023?

This was an exhilarating first season of “Monarch: Legacy of Monsters” on AppleTV. This show locates us somewhere among all the recent Godzilla/Kong movies. No need to (re)watch everything right now. But we’re planning on doing so before season 2!

It’s really difficult to be surprised when you’re watching a biopic or historical drama. People tend to feel free to share “spoilers” since the thinking goes, “You can’t spoil something that already happened in real life.” True, but….

It’s not a typical New Year here at Geek Girl Soup. We’re ushering out 2023 with an apocalyptic film, Well, maybe that’s right on the nose for us! Today we’re chatting about Netflix’s “Leave the World Behind.”

This week we’re talking about Kwanzaa: its origin, history, the seven principles, and how it’s celebrated today.

Can you believe it’s the 20th anniversary of “Elf” and the 35th anniversary of “Die Hard”?? This week, we’re talking about those Christmas movies (the official homework), plus not just a few others. You know, viewer’s choice!

God jul! Buon Natalie! Whether you’re going home for Christmas or you hate Christmas, we’ve got you covered. Or Netflix certainly does. In our first official Christmas episode of the season, we’re talking “Hjem til Jul” (“Home for Christmas”) and “Odio il Natale” (“I Hate Christmas”).

Geek Girl Susan was in Los Angeles last week and finally got two of the Geek Guys together. So, this week, we present you with a Very Special carcast from LA!

AppleTV+ does it again with two fabulous season finales! This week we’re talking about “Invasion” and “Foundation.”

Happy Thanksgiving! Instead of fighting with your M*GA family members, reminding your aunt the safe temperature at which the turkey is done, or turning down your sister-in-law’s ambrosia salad, maybe you can chat about some quality Thanksgiving movies and shows! And we’ve got you covered.

Remember the summer of 1998? Wolf-Biederman vs a rock the size of Texas? That’s right. We were blessed with not one but two asteroid disaster movies: “Deep Impact” and “Armageddon”!

It’s Susan’s birthday week (happy birthday, Susan!). She chose “Grey Gardens,” an episode of Documentary Now! (s1 e1 “Sandy Passage”), and “The Night of the Hunter.”

It’s Cort’s birthday this week (happy birthday, Cort!). So, she chose Mike Flanagan’s “Fall of the House of Usher” (Netflix) for our homework. Yay!!
