Welcome back, Chrononauts! Desmond and Scott are live and ready to dissect the latest Netflix time travel flick, "Fresh." In this episode, they navigate the twists and turns of this teen slasher film, which takes audiences from 2024 back to the "retro" era of 2003. As they delve into the film's plot, the hosts share their thoughts on its depiction of time travel, cultural references, and the challenges of creating a compelling narrative in this genre.
Desmond and Scott critique the film's portrayal of early 2000s fashion and technology, questioning the stark contrast drawn between the two decades. They also explore the film's attempt to blend a slasher story with a time travel narrative, debating whether the movie succeeds in delivering thrills or falls short. The duo doesn't shy away from highlighting the film's plot holes and missed opportunities, particularly in its handling of time travel mechanics.
Throughout the episode, they compare "Fresh" to other time travel films, pondering its place in the pantheon of the genre. The hosts discuss the film's themes of sisterhood and personal growth, while also reflecting on the overuse of time travel tropes and the importance of a well-executed plot.
Whether you're a fan of time travel movies or just curious about Netflix's latest offering, this episode promises a lively discussion filled with humor and critical insights.
