“I’m here because I was in the comic book..”
On this episode of AT THE MOVIES IN THE NOUGHTIES(or 00s if you’re into the whole brevity thing),Devon Elson learns a little french and a lot about friendship when a struggling band from Riverdale makes it big. The sisterhood bond Josie (Rachael Leigh Cook), Valorie (Rosario Dawson), and Melody (Tara Reid) is put to the test when their new agents Wyatt (Alan Cumming) and Fiona (Parker Posey) are using their music to subliminally sell products to teenagers. All this and more in Harry Elfont & Deborah Kaplan’s 2001 Josie and The Pussycats!
His special guest this week is Ashley Thomas! A writer at Fangirlish, and consummate podcaster with Podcast-616, We Are Starfleet, and
Gene-ology: A Mission Log Look into Gene Roddenberry’s Works, she also has her personal passion of music all thanks to this very fun movie.
Together they laugh along with the litany of great meta and silly jokes and wonder why critics couldn’t find this funny, praise the particular outstanding pairing of Cumming and Posey, bop their heads to the genuinely decent music to appreciate the real artists behind the fictional band, and move swiftly past the negative release reviews and into the more current reappraisal still in effect today!
