Cinema Role: The Movie Podcast that Lets the Dice Decide
Welcome to Cinema Role, the podcast where we let the dice decide! Each episode, we roll dice to choose a movie, how we watch it, and to drive our discussion! Cinema Role was born out of a podcast idea that was very different from where we landed, though that tends to be how we do things when we get together. Fish randomly asked, “You know what would be fun?” and as we talked about it, we realized that we could maybe pull it off. So we came up with the name, found an idea that resonated with both of us, and worked hard to figure out a plan for a podcast that would be fun, different, and maybe just a little silly. Kind of like us! We hope you enjoy it too!

April 28, 2026. Today I rolled with Fish and Squid for their episode about Bridget Jones’s Diary. Their coverage of Cinematography and Color Theory went into great detail, blue soup and all. I enjoyed this episode, easily giving it an A, (unlike Mark’s ugly reindeer sweater).
