Our episode on “Birdman,” starring Michael Keaton, Edward Norton, and Emma Stone. This is Keaton’s finest work, yes? OK fine, outside of “The Other Guys?”

“Happy Gilmore 2” is not fan service, it’s a disservice to fans everywhere.

Everyone is loving Krypto, but shouldn’t our hero’s journey include him learning how to defeat the villain in a way that doesn’t require him to whistle for a pet? Like, even just once…? #Superman

Our new episode on our 5 worst films of 2024 goes live in 10 minutes, and one of our hosts is very much not a fan of Oscar favorite “Emelia Pérez” 😅

There’s a lot to love about the 1993 classic “The Sandlot,” but the night game on the 4th of July is one of our favorite sequences. 🎥📽️🎬

Check out the full episode on YouTube!

“Carry-On” is one of the most streamed Netflix originals EVER. But does that mean it’s any good? Our two hosts disagree. 📽️

“Joker: Folie à Deux” was not a great film, but we have to respect the huge swing by Todd Phillips. 📽️

“The Brutalist,” one of the most artistic films of the year, used AI to manipulate the vocal performances of its stars. No big deal? Or a foreboding look at things to come? Like death robots, for example.
