Episode 013 - Die Hard
13/10/2017 Duração: 18minIn our series (season?) finale, a desperate Max barricades himself in the Vault in a last ditch effort to get his job back. As security attempts to break down the door, we’ll look at the original notes on Die Hard, which question Hans Gruber's intentions. This episode is Air Force One meets Adaptation in what might very well be the end of the podcast. Unless we come back for a cash grab sequel. With a Vengeance.

Episode 012 - Casablanca
27/09/2017 Duração: 15minOn the season (series?) finale, the future of Hollywood development hangs in the balance as we look at a script that takes a love story and turns it into the fate of the free world. This episode will answer all your questions: Will Max finally quit Hollywood and go back to law school? Who wrote the Roger Goodell script? How did Caleb get hired? What year is this? Who is down in the hatch? Who shot Mr. Burns? And what’s in the box?!? And if this is the end of the road, at least we’ll always have Paris.

Episode 011 - Alien
27/09/2017 Duração: 13minDue to the events of last week, we are unable to record a new episode. Instead, we flashback to the very first episode of Classic Coverage, recorded five years ago when Max first started as an unpaid script reader. Does Alien's simple plot outweigh its lack of character development? How the hell did Prometheus get made? And do all prequels inherently suck? Find out in our prequel episode!

Episode 009 - The Godfather
27/09/2017 Duração: 15minIs The Godfather a comprehensive look at a mafia family? Or is it a script that is far too long with too many characters?

Episode 008 - The Matrix
27/09/2017 Duração: 14minAs we learn the shocking truth behind last week's sponsor, we examine a script that forces us to question reality (as well as what the hell "We move into bullet time" means when included in a spec script’s scene description).

All that and more this week on Classic Coverage.

26/09/2017 Duração: 11minThis week we look at The Shawshank Redemption, a script that tells instead of shows due to excess voiceover narration. Meanwhile, Max is about to get fired for a crime he didn't commit. Or maybe he did. It's unclear.
