Who said it, by their latest sketch (3)

[speaker] Alison Herman · latest sketch, The Big Picture · Janicza Bravo and Brett Gelman Channel Rejection and Anxiety to Make ‘Lemon’ | The Big Picture · Loves Atlanta, Catastrophe and You're the Worst, especially warmth beneath the cringe. Cannot watch such scenes without muting or opening another tab. Notices staging details like low-angle shots. · stances: Juneteenth is the emotional climax of Atlanta season one; Cringe comedy works when partners share the embarrassment
[speaker] Sean Fennessey · latest sketch, The Big Picture · ‘Resident Evil’ Absolutely Rips! · Loves gory, funny, fast genre movies with craft and confidence, especially 87-minute films that never overstay. Can't stand ponderous elevated horror that fills out its runtime with introspection and sad family history. A sucker for the Carpenter-era lineage, Die Hard homages, and directors who break studio dogma. · stances: Resident Evil is one of the best films of the year; Horror movies have become a drag; fun genre experiences are needed; Short running times are a virtue; Video-game films work best when great filmmakers get creative license
[speaker] Janicza Bravo · latest sketch, The Big Picture · Janicza Bravo and Brett Gelman Channel Rejection and Anxiety to Make ‘Lemon’ | The Big Picture · Drawn to excruciating, stressful, surreal comedy and likes being pushed to a limit. Cannot stand the unearned-success loser-white-guy genre. Loves Lynch and Twin Peaks. · stances: Her path is filled with rejection, unlike the characters in those films; Lemon is a decision in every element and gives no easy answers

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 Juneteenth (Atlanta episode) (2016); name it the way the line names it. Don't recommend Juneteenth (Atlanta episode) (2016) 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.
