It's 2013 and the lines between mainstream independent films and studio films is as blurred as can be.  We're not talking so much about the films that get made by the thousands of truly amateur filmmakers around the world but those deemed independent by not only the media but us viewers.  Sony Pictures Classics, Focus Features, Warner Independent - can the films of these companies and others like them be called "independent" at all with a straight face?  And what of the directing stars who have made so much and have so much cachet that they can do as they please?

This deep discussion is handled with the grace and dignity that you've hopefully come to expect from FILM DON'T HURT, as Kai and Dylan (sans crickets!) dive deep to get to the heart of the matter.  Or something like that.  ENJOY!!!

FILM DON'T HURT #10: LUCASFILM INDIETAINMENT

<description>&lt;img src="https://assets.podomatic.net/ts/76/1c/61/admin2320/3000x3000_8993685.jpg" alt="itunes pic" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://manilovefilms.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/FDHlogo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-27035" alt="FDHlogo" src="http://manilovefilms.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/FDHlogo-300x240.jpg" width="300" height="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

Kai is joined once again by his partner Dylan (live on location from his cricket breeding farm) to bring you another episode of FDH. In this week's episode we delve into the REWATCHABILITY FACTOR. No, that's not a new show hosted by Ryan Seacrest. Though, I'm sure it will be any day now.

What we address this week is what drives someone to rewatch a film? How often do you rewatch films? What makes us rewatch films? And why won't those crickets shut-up? Seriously!

This and much more coupled with Dylan's biting analysis and Kai's wry wit and remarkable humor on an all new episode of Film Don't Hurt. ENJOY!!!

FILM DON'T HURT #9: HIT ME BABY ONE MORE TIME

<description>&lt;img src="https://assets.podomatic.net/ts/76/1c/61/admin2320/3000x3000_8915589.jpg" alt="itunes pic" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://manilovefilms.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/FDHlogo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-27035" alt="FDHlogo" src="http://manilovefilms.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/FDHlogo-300x240.jpg" width="300" height="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

We butchered Bond history last time out, so why not give the same treatment to horror films now?

Actually, it's not that bad, as Kai has plenty of horror street cred; in fact, it's Dylan's lack thereof that Kai mostly wanted to speak about (though we're both pretty lacking when it comes to vintage horror flicks).  So we delve into our childhoods to see where our horror roots (if any) were grown and what our current attitudes are towards the state of horror.  Also, HALLOWEENY HORROR THEME HOW TOPICAL!

This and much more coupled with Dylan's biting analysis and Kai's wry wit and remarkable humor on an all new episode of &lt;a href="http://filmdonthurt.podomatic.com"&gt;Film Don't Hurt&lt;/a&gt;. ENJOY!!!

FILM DON'T HURT #8: I DON'T WANT YOUR LIFE

<description>&lt;img src="https://assets.podomatic.net/ts/76/1c/61/admin2320/3000x3000_8862401.jpg" alt="itunes pic" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://manilovefilms.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/FDHlogo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-27035" alt="FDHlogo" src="http://manilovefilms.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/FDHlogo-300x240.jpg" width="300" height="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

So why are we doing a James Bond-centric episode a year after &lt;em&gt;Skyfall&lt;/em&gt; and probably a good two years before the next entry in the series?  Well, mostly because we can.  But also because this is a "Dylan" episode and because I've been watching them, in order.  So I got a bug up my ass to talk to Kai about the series.  And so we did.  We go through our histories with the series, overall impressions, what's next, why it's so damn popular, and much more.

This and much more coupled with Dylan's biting analysis and Kai's wry wit and remarkable humor on an all new episode of &lt;a href="http://filmdonthurt.podomatic.com"&gt;Film Don't Hurt&lt;/a&gt;. ENJOY!!!

FILM DON'T HURT #7: REBOOT.  JAMES REBOOT.

In the latest episode of FDH, Kai and Dylan discuss the future of the movie watching experience and discuss the hard hitting questions this brings up like...

- Is theater dead? (So existential!)

- How will we watch movies going forward in the 21st century? (VOD or Brain Implants?)

- Will Spielberg's dark predictions for the future of movies come tru? (Prolly not.)

- Does Spielberg make better films than George Lucas? (Yes, just ask him.)

This and much more coupled with Dylan's biting analysis and Kai's wry wit and remarkable humor on an all new episode of Film Don't Hurt. ENJOY!!!

*** We had some audio issues with this one towards the end. Our apologies to you... our fury to Skype!
