Marxists at the Movies

Welcome to Good Burger, home of the Good Burger—can we take your dialectical analysis?
Marxists at the Movies takes on the 1997 Nickelodeon classic Good Burger, breaking down fast-food monopolies, corporate sabotage, labor exploitation, and whether Ed’s Secret Sauce is actually the product of unalienated labor.

Joined by special guest CultFroggy (alongside Myron keeping a watchful eye on the counter), we examine Mondo Burger’s aggressively imperialist expansion and the working-class solidarity required to take down Big Burger.

Marxists at the Movies

🚀 "What Does God Need with a Starship?" 🛸✨

Grab your popcorn and seize the means of cultural production! A brand-new episode of Marxists at the Movies drops October 7th, and we are boldly venturing into the hubris, dialectics, and camp spectacle of Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (1989)! 🎬🚩

Join your favorite dual hosts—Edward 1 (The Meticulous Analyst 🧐) and Edward 2 (The Flamboyant Gay Id 💅)—yes, both of them are me talking to myself in dialectical harmony—as we tear down the "God Problem," metaphysical propaganda, and the ultimate galactic ego trip.

🐸 MASSIVE CROSSOVER ALERT: We’re joined by CultFroggy for an interstellar collision of leftist critique and high-control deconstruction—complete with a special surprise cameo you definitely won't see coming! 👀💥

🐱 Even Myron the Revolutionary Cat took a brief pause from seizing naps and demanding treats to supervise this cut from the cat bed (and they gave it a rare nod of proletarian approval). 🐾☭

Marxists at the Movies

🖖🚩 Attention Comrades & Crew Members:

On October 7th, Marxists at the Movies is breaching the Great Barrier to tackle William Shatner’s infamous 1989 cosmic odyssey: Star Trek V: The Final Frontier.

Expect a full dialectical breakdown of Sybok’s interstellar pyramid scheme, how the "Planet of Galactic Peace" became an impoverished galactic dustbowl, and why Kirk’s immortal question—"What does God need with a starship?"—remains the pinnacle of materialist skepticism.

🎙️ Yes, you will hear two distinct hosts passionately arguing over whether this movie is misunderstood camp or an ideological catastrophe. And yes, they are both me. Don't adjust your communicators.

🐾 Tactical sprint away from the angry deity supervised and approved by CineMarch Media’s Executive Producer, Myron the Revolutionary Cat!

👇 WE NEED A RULING IN THE COMMENTS:

Be honest: Is Star Trek V an over-hated cult gem with great character moments, or the absolute nadir of the original crew's cinematic run? Defend your position below!

Marxists at the Movies

✡️ PAPA, CAN YOU HEAR THE DIALECTIC? ✡️

In 1983, Barbra Streisand didn’t just make a musical; she waged a fifteen-year war of attrition against a Hollywood machine that didn’t think a woman could—or should—handle a camera, a budget, or a legacy.

This week on Marxists at the Movies, we’re dissecting Yentl (1983): The Cost of Truth. This isn't just about the music; it's an analysis of the gendered division of intellectual labor and the yeshiva as a site of ideological gatekeeping.

In this episode:

The Means of Production: How Barbra used "perfectionism" as a survival strategy against the patriarchy.

The Forbidden Commodity: Knowledge. Why the system treats "Truth" as something only the masculine elite can afford.

The Directorial Monitor: Why the film feels like a "defense" rather than just a story.

The Left vs. Right Side: A look at how Streisand calibrated her own image to seize creative power.

🔓 JOIN THE COLLECTIVE: ACCESS IT NOW
The episode officially drops on March 25th, but it is LIVE NOW for our comrades on Patreon! Join us for a 7-day free trial and grab your seat in the study hall:

This isn't just a song. This is a struggle for the means of intellectual production.

Myron is already curled up by the dinner bowl (which they're convinced is the subject of "Papa, Can You Hear Me?"), and the CultFroggy collective is ready to ruin your favorite musical in the best possible way.

🚨 NEW VIDEO — PREMIERING RIGHT NOW 🚨

We’re back after an extended break, and the curtain is officially up.
Thank you so much for your patience, comrades. 🖤

🎶 Marxists at the Movies (Music)
New Kids on the Block – Step by Step (1990): The Backstage Bedroom

This episode cracks open NKOTB at their absolute commercial peak — where intimacy was engineered, masculinity was softened for sale, and the illusion of access became the product itself. This isn’t nostalgia. This is labor, branding, and desire under late capitalism… with frosted tips.

👉 Watch it now — premiering right this second.
Drop into the chat, say hi, and let’s talk about the machinery behind the fantasy.

🐾 Myron is listening too. Tail twitch = approval.

Marxists at the Movies

My cat Myron has officially taken over my birthday.

In true 1950s advertising fashion, they’ve appointed themselves the “discerning customer” of CineMarch Media — and yes, they even wore the ridiculous birthday hat… under protest, of course.

Featuring mid-century charm, sparkling confetti, and one unimpressed feline spokesperson, this poster celebrates another year of life, art, revolution, and a whole lot of Myron energy.

If you love what we do here at CineMarch Media —
🎬 Marxists at the Movies
🥁 The Marching Revolution
— stick around. There’s so much more coming.

Happy Birthday to me. Myron approves. (Barely.)

Our next Marxists at the Movies episode drops November 5th — Ordinary People (1980): Portrait of a Family Drowning.

This is our 50th Patreon early-access release in just seven months and it’s already live for our supporters right now!

This one hits close to home — it’s not just our favorite drama, it’s one of our most personal stories. Ordinary People is about grief, control, and the quiet rebellions that happen behind perfect doors. If you’ve ever felt trapped in the performance of “normal,” this one’s for you.

Myron, our revolutionary feline mascot, supervised the final mix (by sleeping on my keyboard), and they give it four purrs and a tail flick of approval. 🐾

Marxists at the Music – The Innovators (1993): Capitalism’s Accidentally Intentional Soundtrack

🎧 This episode drops publicly on Wednesday, October 29 — but you can listen RIGHT NOW on Patreon!

What if the smoothest pop of the early ’90s wasn’t just background noise — but capitalism’s favorite soundtrack?

In this episode of Marxists at the Music, Edward breaks down how The Innovators (1993) accidentally — or maybe not so accidentally — scored the neoliberal dream. From glossy synths to smiling optimism, this “feel-good” music became the sound of a system selling you comfort while gutting your future.

Expect sharp analysis, dark humor, and a few surprise purrs from Executive Producer Myron the Cat, who believes the true innovation was figuring out how to nap through late-stage capitalism.
