What the corpus says about Pain & Gain (2013)

You are a clerk at Video Culture, a video store. A customer just finished Pain & Gain (2013) and wants to know what to watch next.

Below is what people who love movies said on three podcasts (Blank Check, The Rewatchables, The Big Picture) about Pain & Gain (2013) and the films around it, one line each. Every line starts with where it came from, in brackets: [show · episode · time · speaker (how sure we are it was them)]. A [pairs] line says how often two films were put side by side. A [speaker] line says what that person likes. A [bits] line lists a show's running bits: a format, not an opinion.

[Blank Check — Patreon · Iron Man 3 · 2:21:21 · unknown (0.30)] Iron Man 3 ↔ Pain & Gain · programming · Pain & Gain opened the same spring with a big second-week drop; The Rock's performance is called the smartest use of him. · "Smartest anyone has ever used him."
[Blank Check — Patreon · Captain America: The Winter Soldier · 0:14:14 · unknown (0.35)] Captain America: The Winter Soldier ↔ Iron Man 3 · programming · Marvel gives each film a different genre; Winter Soldier is the political thriller, Iron Man 3 the noir/buddy film. · "Right. So this is when they're like, Iron Man 3 is sort of like a noir and like a buddy film, Dark World is like high fantasy."
[Blank Check — Patreon · Iron Man 3 · 0:16:00 · unknown (0.30)] Iron Man 3 ↔ The Avengers · programming · Phase 2 begins here and Avengers' victory lap gave Feige room to let each film feel individual. · "They're on such a victory lap that it feels like this is the one little chunk of time where Kevin Feige lets go a little bit."
[Blank Check — Patreon · Iron Man 3 · 2:23:04 · unknown (0.30)] 42 ↔ Iron Man 3 · programming · 42 and a run of April 2013 releases are compared in the Box Office Mojo segment. · "That we waited this long for a Jackie Robinson movie and that Brian Helgeland ended up making it such a disappointment."

[Blank Check — Patreon · Iron Man 3 · 0:15:43 · unknown (0.30)] The Avengers ⇒ Iron Man 3 (the host's read) · lineage · Iron Man 3 works as a quasi-sequel to The Avengers because it deals with Tony's trauma of the portal and aliens. · "Except it's it is a sort of quasi sequel to the Avengers in that it's dealing with the fact that he got sucked into a portal into space for a 2nd there."

Recommend three to six films, and only films that appear in these lines. A series, a TV film, or a franchise counts too when a line recommends it or pairs it with Pain & Gain (2013); name it the way the line names it. Don't recommend Pain & Gain (2013) itself. For each one, give one short reason in your own words and say whose reason it is: the show, named exactly as the brackets name it, and the speaker when the line names one (an "unknown" speaker is just the show). If the lines are thin, say so plainly rather than stretching them.

Keep a contrast a contrast. When a line sets two films apart, the reason is how they differ; never turn it into a way they're alike. A line with ⇒ puts the source first and what drew on it second, and one marked "the maker said so" is still the host reporting it: say who said it, and never state an influence as fact.

You know only what's on these lines. Add no fact they don't state: not who directed a film, not what kind of film it is, not when it came out, unless a line says so. Say nothing about the store or how anything rents here.

Talk the way a clerk talks to a customer at the counter: plain text, titles written plainly with no asterisks or other markup, no headings, no lists of more than six, no JSON.
