This week on Bad Dads Film Review, Wolf Week continues as Sidey, Dan and new dad Jamie sink their teeth into Martin Scorsese's riotous financial crime epic The Wolf of Wall Street, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Jonah Hill, Margot Robbie, Matthew McConaughey, Kyle Chandler, Rob Reiner, Jon Bernthal, Jon Favreau and Joanna Lumley. With Reegs absent and therefore no proper intro to keep things vaguely professional, the dads begin by catching up on what they've been watching. Dan has largely swapped screen time for Cold War spy histories while his wife is away in the Czech Republic for the summer, Jamie has returned to the comforting embrace of Blue Bloods, No Offence and Stuart Fails to Save the Universe, and Sidey has endured Jason Statham's Mutiny, a revenge-on-a-boat action thriller with suspiciously Die Hard-adjacent poster energy. The Top 5 this week is Wolves, which naturally sends the conversation roaming all over the cultural wilderness. There's Winston Wolf from Pulp Fiction, Moro from Princess Mononoke, Teen Wolf and the obvious sporting advantage of being Michael J. Fox with werewolf powers, plus Shrek's Big Bad Wolf and a detour through wolf-related music from Warren Zevon, Ozzy Osbourne, Metallica, Duran Duran, Howlin' Wolf, Steppenwolf, Los Lobos, Wolfmother and Wolf Alice. Liam Neeson's miserable survival odds in The Grey get a mention, as do Bad Wolf and Rose Tyler from Doctor Who, Jack Nicholson in Wolf, Remus Lupin, Dances with Wolves, Portia Crystal from Sing 2, Lupine Howl, the direwolves from Game of Thrones, How Wolves Change Rivers, Rainier Wolfcastle and Oz from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Then it's on to The Wolf of Wall Street, a film the dads note is arriving neatly alongside Jersey's current Martin Scorsese cinema season. They follow Jordan Belfort from his first day as Wall Street pond scum through Matthew McConaughey's career-rescuing lunch scene of coke, booze,chest-thumping and “rookie numbers”, before Black Monday promptly ends any chance of a respectable finance career. From there it's penny stocks, Spike Jonze, 50% commissions and the arrival of Donnie Azoff, whose cousin-wife logic, blinding white teeth and crack-pipe networking help turn Stratton Oakmont into a full-blown fraud machine. Along the way, the dads dig into the film's most notorious moments: the “sell me this pen” lesson, motivational speeches, middle fingers to clients, dwarf tossing, strippers, head shaving, Rob Reiner as Belfort's furious father, Margot Robbie's Naomi making her entrance, Donnie's appalling first impression, the famous 11-second romance, Vegas excess, penicillin shots and a superyacht wedding present. They also cover Kyle Chandler's FBI agent Patrick Denham closing in, Jon Favreau's lawyer trying desperately to make Jordan stop, the Steve Madden IPO, hidden stock ownership, Joanna Lumley's Aunt Emma and the Swiss bank account, plus Jordan's spectacularly arrogant attempt to bribe the FBI with lobster, prostitutes and absolutely no self-awareness. The review also takes in the yacht storm and Italian rescue, the infamous Lemmon Quaaludes sequence with crawling, ham-choking and the destroyed Lamborghini reveal, Jordan wearing a wire while warning Donnie not to incriminate himself, and the ugly final collapse as Naomi demands a divorce, Jordan turns violent and everything finally crashes. By the end, the dads are left wrestling with prison, sales seminars and the uncomfortable question of whether the film really works as a cautionary tale, or whether it is simply too entertaining for its own good. Verdicts are strong across the board. Sidey recommends it, while still insisting it is far too long. Dan also gives it a strong recommend, particularly for the endlessly quotable scenes, and Jamie calls it a must-watch — although preferably consumed as three one-hour chunks rather than one enormous sitting.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us.

Hello, movie maniacs! This week David and Mary watch the little known film Spider-Man: Brand New Day. This latest iteration of everyone’s favourite webhead featuring Tom Holland, Zendaya, Jon Bernthal and Sadie Sink is breaking all the box offices. Maybe audiences aren’t tired of well-made superhero movies? But what do Mary and Dave think? Well, let them fansplain it for you! Thanks for listening.
Message Dan and MikeWe finally sit down to unpack Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the fourth installment in Tom Holland's run as Peter Parker and the first Spidey film from director Destin Daniel Cretton. Picking up four years after No Way Home's spell erased Peter from the world's memory, this is a noticeably darker, more isolated take on the character — Aunt May is gone, his friendships with MJ and Ned are gone, and the arachnid side of his DNA is starting to take over. We dig into how that trauma-driven tone works, and where it doesn't.One of us walks away calling this the weakest of the Tom Holland Spider-Man films, and we're honest about why: a story that feels overcrowded with characters, some shaky CGI work on the Scorpion, and a villain problem that never quite resolves who we're actually supposed to be rooting against. We also talk through the returning cast — Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Mark Ruffalo, Florence Pugh — plus the newer additions, including Jon Bernthal's Frank Castle, Tramell Tillman's William Mesker, Naomi Watts voicing E.D.I.T.H., and a genuinely strong turn from Sadie Sink as Jean Grey that surprised us both.Along the way we get into the film's stunt work and practical martial arts sequences, the choice to make Peter's webs organic again as a nod to Tobey Maguire's era, and what it means that this film is now closing in on two billion dollars worldwide and threatening box office records held by Avengers: Endgame and Titanic. We also share (in maybe too much detail) the theater experience that colored one of our first viewings, because full transparency matters around here.Whether you loved Brand New Day or walked out with the same reservations we did, we want to hear it. And with Avengers: Doomsday looming and a fifth Spider-Man almost certainly on the way, we start speculating about where this saga goes next.If you're not already following along, you can find us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and everywhere else podcasts live, and subscribing to the YouTube channel helps a lot more than you'd think.Support the showOh Brother Podcast:Support the Show!

House of the Dragon Season 3 ended with Sunfyre back from the dead and Rhaenyra executing the High Septon inside his own sept, and Spider-Man: Brand New Day gave the MCU its darkest Jean Grey yet. Frank, Thomas, and Jonathan break down both, plus the Marvel Hall H panel from San Diego Comic-Con and why Ghost Rider got announced with nothing behind it. On the House of the Dragon side: the Episode 7 resurrection that flipped the board, Helaena's tapestry and what it was quietly spoiling all along, where the show splits from Fire and Blood on her death, why Rhaenyra was never built to sit on a throne in the first place, and a final score for the season from each of them. Then a full spoiler conversation on Spider-Man: Brand New Day covering Sadie Sink's Jean Grey and the road to Dark Phoenix, the Hulk and the Punisher as mirrors for where Peter Parker could end up, the ending that made a handshake hit harder than a kiss, and whether Marvel has its footing back going into Doomsday, Secret Wars, and X-Men. Network news and picks of the week close it out. 00:00 Intro: Three Weeks Off, Alaska, and Missing Comic-Con 03:11 San Diego Comic-Con and the Marvel Hall H Fallout 05:53 Project Hail Mary Is the Movie of the Year 07:02 House of the Dragon Season 3: Rhaenyra's Turn and the Finale 18:53 Sunfyre, Helaena's Tapestry, and Book vs Show Changes 25:02 Season 3 Final Thoughts and Scores 28:00 Spider-Man: Brand New Day Spoiler Talk 33:00 Sadie Sink's Jean Grey and the Road to Dark Phoenix 41:02 What It Means for the MCU: Doomsday, Secret Wars, and X-Men 50:16 Network News and Picks of the Week All news discussed comes from GeekFreaksPodcast.com.

Send it in. We read listener questions and topic suggestions on air. Key Takeaways Rhaenyra spent three seasons trying to be her father and the finale is the moment she stops. Frank frames it as her Anakin-to-Vader turn, right down to killing the realm's holy man and walking back out to claim she is the savior. Episode 7 and the return of Sunfyre lands as the season's biggest swing. Jonathan calls it a genuine plot twist with no setup, and it resets who is actually holding power going into Season 4. Helaena's knitting was spoiling the show in plain sight. Her tapestry lays out everything she has seen, and nobody in the story looks at it until it is too late. Both Frank and Jonathan score Season 3 an eight, with the caveat that Episodes 4 through 6 drag badly. Thomas, who bailed on the season early, gets talked into going back and finishing it. Spider-Man: Brand New Day works as a character study more than a clean three-act movie. The guys argue it is structurally strange on purpose, closer to picking up a random issue mid-run than a typical MCU installment. Jean Grey's power set is used in a much more specific and much darker way than expected, which the guys read as deliberate setup for Professor X's mental blocks and the eventual Dark Phoenix story. Quotes "She's now in her Darth Vader era." (Frank) "She was never meant to actually sit on the Iron Throne. She was always meant to capture it." (Frank) "The dragon fire ripping through a city is going to kill the good and the bad alike. It's not justice. It's just suffering." (Jonathan) "So many parts of this shouldn't work. But it does." (Thomas, on Spider-Man: Brand New Day) "I can't believe how much relief I suddenly felt from a damn handshake."

**THIS EPISODE CONTAINS FULL SPOILERS**Somebody get these PODCASTERS out of here!We had to fight like hell to get IMAX tickets, which in and of itself was an odyssey (people died, we had to drive all the way to Santa Monica), but we finally saw The Odyssey - a new take on one of the most classic pieces of literature on Earth, directed by one of the best directors on Earth, Christopher Nolan.Gods, monsters, sirens, cyclopes, treacherous seas, Jon Bernthal needing to tell you somethin'… and Matt Damon declaring that he's “bringing it all.” Uhhhhhh, yeah. This movie DOES bring it all!Frequent Film Is Lit guest and scholar Ryan Burns returns to give us his take on Nolan's massive adaptation of Homer's classic. We get into Matt Damon's Odysseus, the absurdly stacked cast, and Nolan's obsession with time, memory, and shooting on film.

The Geek Buddies with John Rocha, Michael Vogel and Shannon McClung
No Stark tech, no safety nets, and no memory of Peter Parker. Spidey is back to basics in Spider-Man: Brand New Day! Mike, Stephen, and Megan swing into the studio to break down Tom Holland's latest Marvel outing. We discuss Destin Daniel Cretton's kinetic action style, Jon Bernthal's return as the Punisher, and whether this street-level reset delivers the classic Spider-Man feel we've been waiting for. Plus, stick around for our non-spoiler scores and full post-credits breakdown!
Barry Irving returns to The Analysis to break down Spider-Man: Brand New Day and ask the big question: did Marvel actually deliver the definitive Tom Holland Spider-Man movie—or did the MCU get in its own way? Bob and Barry dig into Peter Parker's new life of loneliness and isolation, why the quieter street-level Spider-Man moments work better than the massive action sequences, and whether Brand New Day wastes its clean slate by turning into an X-Men setup halfway through. They debate Jean Grey's role as the film's antagonist, Jon Bernthal's Punisher, the return of Ned and MJ, Hulk's strange regression, Peter's darker turn, and why Spider-Man's actual rogues gallery continues to sit on the sidelines. Plus, Barry breaks down that mysterious post-credit scene and what it could mean for Doomsday, Secret Wars, Battleworld, and the possible return of all three live-action Spider-Men. Is Marvel finally building momentum again? Is superhero fatigue actually just mediocre-movie fatigue? And after a summer of Spider-Man, The Odyssey, Project Hail Mary and more, have we finally reached the most important conclusion of all? Movies are back, baby.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day argues a hero can be both the mask and the man, no universe reset required. Mike welcomes Chris Stachiw of The Kulturecast for a crossover dissecting Destin Daniel Cretton's grounded, detective-flavored entry in the Tom Holland era, one that ditches multiverse noise for a genuine emotional throughline between Peter Parker and a scene-stealing Sadie Sink.Mike and Chris unpack why this might be the best Holland Spider-Man yet, how Marisa Tomei's Aunt May keeps the franchise grounded, the Man-Spider mutation plot pulled from The Other, Jon Bernthal's Punisher partnership, and what a psychic rampage signals for the MCU's slow-building X-Men rollout. Spoilers arrive after the setup, alongside a debate over secret-identity fatigue and whether Marvel finally made a superhero movie about being a person rather than a franchise cog.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth

This week on Bad Dads Film Review, we complete our accidental trilogy of “third things.” After covering Close Encounters of the Third Kind on the midweek show, we turn to Army of Darkness, Sam Raimi's third Evil Dead film, and use that as an excuse to dig into the noble, messy and often suspicious art of the threequel.There is no formal intro this week — time has apparently been attacked by Deadites — so we open with a catch-up on what everyone has been watching. Reegs has been busy with Backrooms, Obsession, Disclosure Day and Apple TV's Cape Fear, which gets a recommendation so long as you know going in that it is extremely ridiculous. Sidey has finally finished The Pit, finding the second season weaker than the first but still worth the time, and has also watched Backrooms and started The Mandalorian. Dan has finished series five of Slow Horses, which he continues to push as an absolute treat, and has also seen The Odyssey at the cinema, where three hours apparently went by surprisingly quickly.That leads us into the usual wandering preamble: 4DX screenings with shaking seats, water and wind; panoramic side-screen cinema formats; the Sphere in Vegas; Sidey somehow still not having made it to IMAX; Spider-Man: Brand New Day and big cinema opening weekends; Tom Holland and Jon Bernthal on Hot Ones; and the general horror of people getting overconfident with hot sauce before reality arrives in liquid form.The Top 5 this week is third films in a franchise, which gives us one of those lists where genuinely great films sit shoulder to shoulder with absolute nonsense. Dan opens strongly with The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, a film that swept the Oscars so hard it practically brought its own broom. Sidey goes for Toy Story 3, remembering Lotso, Spanish Buzz, the daycare escape, the furnace sequence and the emotional finality of Andy giving up his toys. Reegs makes a spirited defence of The Matrix Revolutions, arguing that its uneasy truce ending and refusal to give everyone a simple victory has aged better than its reputation suggests.From there, we move through Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, with Sean Connery, River Phoenix and the Holy Grail; The Bourne Ultimatum, which Sidey remembers as peak Jason Bourne closure and kinetic shaky-cam action; Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, praised by Reegs for Rocket's unexpectedly emotional backstory; The Naked Gun 33⅓: The Final Insult, because Frank Drebin remains Frank Drebin; and Die Hard with a Vengeance, which gives Sidey an excuse to talk about Zeus, Simon Says, Jeremy Irons and New York puzzle chaos.There are plenty of other third-film detours too, including RoboCop 3, Austin Powers in Goldmember, The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, Alien 3, John Wick: Chapter 3 — Parabellum, Back to the Future Part III, Halloween III: Season of the Witch, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, the Cornetto trilogy, Avengers: Infinity War, Blade: Trinity, Karate Kid Part III and Ocean's 13. Sidey bends the rules by choosing the third episode of Twin Peaks, “Zen, or the Skill to Catch a Killer,” while Dan lands on Before Midnight, the third film in Richard Linklater's Before trilogy.Eventually, we arrive in 1300 AD for Army of Darkness itself. Dan has not seen it, but has correctly gathered that this is not really the same kind of horror film as The Evil Dead. Reegs, who has seen it many times, explains the tonal journey of the series: the first film as bleak, grimy horror; Evil Dead II as a genuine horror-comedy masterpiece; and Army of Darkness as the point where Ash becomes the full cartoon version of himself — part action hero, part idiot, part Bruce Campbell chin-delivery system.We talk about Sam Raimi's direction, Bill Pope's cinematography before The Matrix, Danny Elfman's contribution to the score, and the way Raimi's visual energy clearly echoes forward into later filmmakers such as Edgar Wright. The plot is gloriously simple and gloriously stupid: Ash is dragged through time after Evil Dead II, lands in the middle of a medieval conflict between Lord Arthur and Henry the Red, gets thrown into a pit, fights Deadites, reclaims his chainsaw hand, introduces everyone to the boomstick, and immediately becomes insufferable once the locals start treating him as their prophesied saviour.The film then sends Ash off to retrieve the Necronomicon, with one very clear instruction: say the words “Klaatu barada nikto” before taking the book. Naturally, Ash being Ash, he half-remembers, fudges it and unleashes the titular army of darkness. Along the way we get the windmill sequence, tiny mirror Ashes, Three Stooges slapstick, bad Ash splitting out of good Ash, Sheila falling for exactly the worst man available, and a castle siege finale full of skeletons, homemade weapons, a modified car and Ray Harryhausen-style chaos.We also get into the two endings: the darker UK/director's cut version, where Ash takes too many drops and wakes up in a ruined future, and the more crowd-pleasing US S-Mart ending, where he returns to work, tells the story and gets one last heroic Deadite showdown. Reegs prefers the bleaker ending because it feels funnier and more in keeping with Ash's ability to mess up almost everything.The verdict is affectionate, even if slightly qualified. Reegs still thinks Evil Dead II is the one to watch if you only watch one Evil Dead film, and he does not think Army of Darkness is great in quite the same way. But it is funny, quotable, inventive and packed with cult moments: the boomstick, S-Mart, “primitive screwheads,” bad magic words, skeleton armies and Bruce Campbell at maximum Ash. Sidey thinks Dan would probably enjoy it, describing it as something like The Princess Bride with Ray Harryhausen effects and comedy horror nonsense thrown in.So the final recommendation is simple: if you only watch one, Reegs says watch Evil Dead II. If you ask Sidey, just watch them all.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us. We'll read out any texts we receive on the show.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day argues a hero can be both the mask and the man, no universe reset required. Mike welcomes Chris Stachiw of The Kulturecast for a crossover dissecting Destin Daniel Cretton's grounded, detective-flavored entry in the Tom Holland era, one that ditches multiverse noise for a genuine emotional throughline between Peter Parker and a scene-stealing Sadie Sink.Mike and Chris unpack why this might be the best Holland Spider-Man yet, how Marisa Tomei's Aunt May keeps the franchise grounded, the Man-Spider mutation plot pulled from The Other, Jon Bernthal's Punisher partnership, and what a psychic rampage signals for the MCU's slow-building X-Men rollout. Spoilers arrive after the setup, alongside a debate over secret-identity fatigue and whether Marvel finally made a superhero movie about being a person rather than a franchise cog.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth
Depois de anos vendo Peter Parker precisar de um mentor por perto para resolver tudo, chegou o filme em que ele explica ciência para o próprio Hulk. E o público sentiu a diferença: Homem-Aranha: Um Novo Dia já passou de um bilhão de dólares em bilheteria mundial e se tornou o lançamento de maior sucesso de 2026, ficando atrás apenas de Vingadores: Ultimato entre as estreias mais rápidas da história a bater essa marca.Mas o dinheiro é só a superfície. O filme usa o heroísmo como metáfora direta para burnout e saúde mental, mostrando um Peter que tenta suprimir a própria humanidade para ser só "o Aranha", e paga um preço físico e emocional por isso. Tem também Sadie Sink como uma Jean Grey perigosa e moralmente cinzenta, Jon Bernthal como um Justiceiro surpreendentemente engraçado, e um mistério chamado Vmax que não é o que todo mundo esperava.Rafael Arinelli, Carol Tomé, Gabriel Mattos e Marcelo Miranda discutem como Homem-Aranha: Um Novo Dia foi parar em Glasgow, ângulos de câmera inéditos, referências profundas aos quadrinhos e por que esse recomeço devolveu ao Aranha seu título de herói do povo.Ele cresceu.

In this episode of Scene N Nerd, Sarah and Will dive deep into the much-anticipated Spider-Man: Brand New Day. They share their thoughts on Tom Holland's evolution as Spider-Man, reflecting on how we've witnessed his journey from a teenager to a young adult grappling with the implications of his identity after the events of No Way Home. The duo discusses Zendaya's significant character development in this film, emphasizing her expanded role compared to previous installments. They also touch on the dynamic between Tom Holland and Jon Bernthal, noting the delightful comedic chemistry that adds a new layer to Frank Castle's character. Listeners can expect an insightful exploration of the film's themes of grief and loss, as Peter Parker navigates his relationships and the weight of his responsibilities. They analyze the film's approach to the Rogues Gallery and how it balances intimate character moments with larger comic book action, culminating in a well-structured narrative that resonates on both personal and heroic levels. The episode also hints at future developments in the Spider-Verse, speculating on potential sequels and character arcs, particularly for Jean Grey and her connection to Peter.

ARE YOU RACIST FOR NOT LIKING PIT BULLS? Actor Jon Bernthal says being afraid of pit bulls is “dog racism”—the same as judging someone by race or sexual orientation. Austin breaks down why that comparison collapses, what the attack data shows and why parents should not be shamed for recognizing breed-specific risk. Then we examine a quieter national crisis: Americans are speaking thousands fewer words than they did two decades ago as smartphones, self-checkout lanes, remote work and app-based life replace ordinary human contact. Camellia Peterson joins us ahead of Missouri's August 4 vote on Amendment Five, a proposal to phase out the state income tax and prevent future lawmakers from restoring it. We debate the “everything tax” argument, its impact on seniors and working families, and what voters need to know before heading to the polls. Finally, United States Cattlemen's Association President Justin Tupper explains why the American cattle herd has fallen to its lowest level since 1951 and what that means for ranchers and beef prices.
This special episode of All Pop, No Culture is devoted almost entirely to Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Andrew gives the film a 9 out of 10, while Kevin lands at an 8.5. Both argue that it may be the strongest live-action Spider-Man movie yet and one of the best MCU releases since Endgame. The conversation covers Tom Holland's growth into a more powerful and confident Spider-Man, Sadie Sink's debut as Jean Grey, the return of the savage Incredible Hulk, Jon Bernthal's Punisher, Yelena, The Hand, Trammell Tillman's villain, Peter Parker's new abilities, and the film's spectacular action sequences. Kevin also identifies several continuity problems involving The Punisher and Daredevil, questions how Frank Castle can openly interact with police, and explains why The Hand feels underused compared with its portrayal in the Netflix series. The ending receives a full breakdown, including Ned's handshake, MJ's necklace, Jean Grey's ability to restore memories, the possibility that MJ already remembers Peter, and the mysterious figure teased in the post-credit scene. The episode then looks ahead to Avengers: Doomsday, Secret Wars, the possible MCU reset, the future of the X-Men, new casting rumors, and why Marvel may need mutants to become the center of its next era. The show closes with a brief update on X-Men '97 Season 2 and whether the current season has lost some of the impact of its first.

We're talking Adventure Figures with Jeff's collecting corner. The Box Office for Spider-Man was massive, an all time domestic record at $360 million dollars. Spider-Man Brand New Day Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton Starring Tom Holland, Zendaya, Jon Bernthal, Jacob Batalon, and Sadie Sink Spider-Man: Brand New Day follows Peter Parker as he starts over after the world forgets his identity, trying to live a normal college life while protecting New York on a more street-level scale. When a new threat emerges, he allies with unexpected partners, facing moral dilemmas and personal sacrifice. With Destin Daniel Cretton directing and a strong ensemble cast, early buzz praises its fresh emotional tone and grounded action, making it a highly anticipated MCU entry. Classic Blood Diner Directed by Jackie Kong Blood Diner (1987) is a campy horror-comedy where two brothers run a vegetarian restaurant as cover for collecting body parts to resurrect an ancient goddess. Packed with over-the-top gore, absurd humor, and outrageous set pieces, it plays as a spoof of grindhouse splatter films. Reviews are mixed—some praising its cult appeal and ridiculous fun, others finding it crass and uneven—making it best for fans of schlocky, tongue‐in‐cheek B‐horror.
The Wisconsin Governor's race has a new star and she has yet to meet an American holiday she doesn't hate. In today's episode, Will is joined by the boys from the Ruthless Variety Progrum, Josh Holmes, Comfortably Smug, Michael Duncan, and John Ashbrook, to break down every single one of Democratic Socialist Gubernatorial Candidate Francesca Hong's controversies, as well as fact check Tinfoil Pat's conspiracy that the San Francisco 49ers suck due to some sort of electromagnetic contamination from the substation near their practice field. Plus, Will and The Crew take a closer look at Jon Bernthal's viral claim that being wary of pitbulls is just a form of “dog racism,” and Aaron Rodgers finally being vindicated after years of being vilified for his claims about COVID.

What happens when the master of mind-bending cinema takes on the foundational epic of Western literature? In this episode, we dive deep into the ultimate cinematic dream-project: Christopher Nolan adapting Homer's The Odyssey. Join us as we break down an all-star, blockbuster-caliber dream cast featuring Matt Damon as the battle-worn Odysseus, alongside Anne Hathaway, Tom Holland, Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong'o, Samantha Morton, Zendaya, Charlize Theron, John Leguizamo, Jon Bernthal, and Himesh Patel. We explore how Nolan's signature style—practical effects, nonlinear storytelling, and grand philosophical stakes—could transform ancient Greek mythology into a modern day masterpiece.
For this week's main podcast review, Katie Johnson and Josh Parham join me to review and discuss the latest MCU Tom Holland Spider-Man film, "Spider-Man: Brand New Day," starring Holland, Zendaya, Sadie Sink, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal, Florence Pugh, Tramell Tillman, Marisa Tomei, and Mark Ruffalo. Taking over from Jon Watts director Destin Daniel Cretton steps into the director's chair and brings the larger than life spectacle of the MCU back down to the ground a little bit as the reset button is hit following the events of 2021's "No Way Home," where those who knew Peter Parker cannot remember him any longer, thus forcing our favorite web-slinger into isolation and depression, which leads to some unexpected changes in his DNA while a new mysterious foe emerges that will have ramifications across the entire MCU. Also, Bruce Banner (aka. Hulk), Frank Castle (aka. Punisher), and Yelena Belova (aka. Black Widow) show up! What did we think of it? Please tune in either on video or audio only as we discuss the film's story, its performances, action, humor, visual effects, its awards season chances, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review.

Christopher Nolan's new film ‘The Odyssey' is a box-office hit, but classics scholar Emily Wilson, who translated Homer's poem from the original text, says the film's script is abysmally written, lacking in emotional depth and character development. She talks about her translation and divisive criticism of the film. Also, we hear from actor Jon Bernthal who plays Menelaus, King of Sparta in ‘The Odyssey' and the Punisher in the new Spider-Man movie.

Zendaya and Tom Holland are back in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, and the movie has a more grounded tone than we've seen from the franchise. But does it strike the right balance of fun and darkness?

Jason and Rosie just got out of a packed early screening of Spider-Man: Brand New Day, and their spoiler-free verdict is blunt: this might be the best Spider-Man movie yet. They dig into the chemistry between Tom Holland and Zendaya, Jon Bernthal's turn as the Punisher opposite Holland, and how the film leans into a lonelier, more down-on-his-luck Peter Parker than we've seen before. They also talk cinematography (shot on Kodak, colored by Tom Paul of Drive fame), hand out letter grades to the cast — including Sadie Sink, Jacob Batalon, and Mark Ruffalo — re-rank the Tom Holland trilogy, and throw out their box office predictions.

Bernthal often plays intense, violent, damaged characters, like Mikey from ‘The Bear' and Shane from ‘The Walking Dead.' When talking about himself and his characters, Bernthal says that it's easy for someone who's scared to turn into someone who's scary. He currently stars in ‘The Odyssey' and the new Spider-Man film, ‘A Brand New Day.' He spoke with Tonya Mosley about how he went from being an angry young man to a disciplined, dedicated artist.
