Mr. Know-It-All - Invidious

Mr. Know-It-All

Mr. Know-It-All is film and TV analysis from inside the process, hosted by Johnny.

Twenty-two years in national advertising and production, two TV pilots, a feature script that reached the president of Warner Bros., and a career spent lighting scenes, fixing bad takes, and cutting shots that killed the pacing. That is the lens. Comics, Star Trek, superheroes, and the genre work everybody watches and nobody reads closely enough.

Every verdict here is argued and every score is his. If you think he got one wrong, the comments are the room.

New episodes weekly.
