Spoilerpiece Theatre 258: Toy Story 4

Evan Crean

In Episode 258 of my podcast Spoilerpiece Theatre, we review Into the Dark: All That We Destroy, Echo in the Canyon, War and Peace, and Toy Story 4. This week’s episode starts with me recapping All That We Destroy (3:48), the latest entry in Blumhouse’s Into the Dark anthology series. There have been some highs and lows in the series, but this one is unfortunately one of the lowest. Then it’s Dave with Echo in the Canyon (13:41), a fun and informative look at the origins of the Laurel Canyon music scene of the 1960s with interviews conducted by Jakob Dylan. Then it’s Kris with his experience marathoning War and Peace (19:54) at the Brattle where he says “big” and “massive” a lot. The episode wraps up with Toy Story 4 (37:30), which is way more fun, tearjerking, and overall effective than anyone might have expected.

Hello! My name is Evan Crean. By day I work for a marketing agency, but by night, I’m a film critic based in Boston, MA. Since 2009, I have written hundreds of movie reviews and celebrity interviews for Starpulse.com. I have also contributed pieces to NewEnglandFilm.com and to The Independent, as a writer and editor. I maintain an active Letterboxd account too. In addition to publishing short form work, I am a co-author of the book Your ’80s Movie Guide to Better Living, which is available on CreateSpace and Amazon. The book is the first in a series of lighthearted self-help books for film fans, which distills advice from ’80s movies on how to tackle many of life’s challenges. On top of writing, I co-host and edit the weekly film podcast Spoilerpiece Theatre with two other Boston film critics. I’m a founding member and the current treasurer for the Boston Online Film Critics Association as well.
