The '00s Zone
This is a podcast that looks back at the movies of the '00s, and tries to make sense of that seemingly culturally faceless first decade of the new millennium. It's hosted by screenwriter, filmmaker, and sometimes critic Mark Palermo (Detention) and actor Loretta Yu (Blood and Water, Diggstown). Sometimes there are guests (also of some renown).

WAR TEENS! Serena Whitney (curator of the Drunken Cinema series and programmer of the Revue Cinema in Toronto) joins us for this lively episode. First we preamble about the lazy sexual politics in COMING 2 AMERICA and WONDER WOMAN 1984. Then we take a fresh look at 2000's very different adolescent combat movies, BRING IT ON and BATTLE ROYALE.
