  Disney Making a New HOME ALONE With Macaulay Culkin?!

  Aug 3, 20261h 21m

  We play a new game this week. We each pick our favorite movie (no Star Wars) from the 80s through the 2020s and the other two have to guess. We also discuss the trailers for Thomas Crown Affair, Jumanji Open World, and It’s Always Sunny. And Disney sounds like they are going to make a new Home Alone with Macaulay Culkin, which sounds like a money-maker but also a massive mistake. Mondays are for the nerds! Thanks for having fun with us and we hope you enjoy the podcast!

  The Batman II Bumped, Tom Cruise Going for Gold, and Is Nolan the GOAT?

  Jul 20, 20261h 42m

  Tom Cruise is going all in for his elusive Oscar with The Digger. We discuss the trailer for that, I Play Rocky (what’s with the voice?), and Andy Serkis’ production teaser for The Hunt of Gollum. We also discuss the dominance of Christopher Nolan as The Odyssey crushes in its opening week. And The Batman II gets delayed once again to 2028 and everyone seems so eager to blame J.J. Abrams for it. But at least Matt Reeves released a 30 second camera test of Robert Pattison in the suit in the rain…right? Guys? We close things out by talking about what we’re watching. John reviews Obsession, Lacey says Disney phoned it in with Moana 2, and James unleashes his unconditional love for the movie Pop Star, proving tricycles defeat bicycles every time. Mondays are for the nerds! Thanks for having fun with us and we hope you enjoy the podcast!
