The Many Uses of Letterboxd - A Deep Dive Into Our Love of Movies | A Saga Session

In this Saga Session, we take a deep dive into our love of movies, using the app Letterboxd as a jumping-off point for a much bigger conversation about film. Though recorded in December of 2025, this marks Saga Sessions’ first release of 2026—and we kick off the year by celebrating why we love cinema in the first place.

Nik walks Colin through the many uses of Letterboxd, from tracking watches and logging reviews to building lists that reflect personal taste, evolving interests, and cinematic interests. Along the way, Letterboxd becomes a gateway into discussions about filmmakers, actors, genres, and the movies that have stayed with us the longest.

We also reveal our top four favorite films of all time, explore some of the custom lists Nik has curated on the app, and reflect on how tools like Letterboxd shape the way we engage with movies today. While the episode starts with a focus on the app, it quickly turns into a broader, free-flowing conversation about film history, personal taste, and the shared joy of watching and discussing movies.

Whether you’re an active Letterboxd user or just someone who loves talking movies, this episode is a deep dive into our love of movies—and an honest look at how we document, revisit, and celebrate the films that matter to us most.

Thank you for attending our first Saga Session of 2026! We want to hear from you.
