Trailer Reaction Thon! Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Breakdown & First-Look Review of Michael, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, Scream 7, and Toy Story 5! Coy Jandreau & Greg Alba dive into four of the biggest upcoming movies with full trailer reactions, theories, and analysis. We kick things off with Michael — the upcoming Michael Jackson biopic directed by Antoine Fuqua and starring Jaafar Jackson as Michael, alongside Nia Long, Laura Harrier, Miles Teller, Colman Domingo, and more. Then we blast off into The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, the next Nintendo & Illumination adventure with Chris Pratt as Mario, Anya Taylor-Joy as Princess Peach, Charlie Day as Luigi, Jack Black as Bowser, and Keegan-Michael Key as Toad — now exploring deep space and cosmic worlds. Next we slash into Scream 7, directed by Kevin Williamson and bringing back Neve Campbell as Sidney Prescott, Courteney Cox as Gale Weathers, with Isabel May joining the cast as a new Tatum-connected character — and a terrifying new Ghostface. Finally, we reunite with the Pixar icons in Toy Story 5, directed by Andrew Stanton & Kenna Harris, featuring Tom Hanks as Woody, Tim Allen as Buzz Lightyear, Joan Cusack as Jessie, and the return of the original gang facing a new high-tech threat. We break down every moment: cast reveals, plot teases, easter eggs, tone, hidden details, franchise implications, speculation, and hype for all four films. If you're looking for Michael trailer explained, Super Mario Galaxy Movie trailer breakdown, Scream 7 teaser reaction, or Toy Story 5 trailer commentary, this reaction covers everything in one massive trailer marathon!

For Halloween 2025 and to wrap up the "High School Horror" Season of Spoop, Aaron and Derek are joined by Raf Stitt and Valerie Morreale of the Screenage Wasteland film website and The Canon Podcast to discuss 1996's slasher classic "Scream" directed by Wes Craven and written by Kevin Williamson. They talk about how "Scream" both honors and subverts slasher films, the thematic elements of mass violence in schools, and what it did in revitalizing horror in the 90s. They also get into the undertones of certain relationships between characters, the realism of Ghostface making the slasher more terrifying, all the references to other horror movies, and many other aspects of the film. Val and Raf have a favorite scary movie. Aaron and Derek's parents are going to be so mad at them.

It's Halloween, so we decided to do a "scary" one! Podcaster, author, and emissary from the City of Brotherly Love Trevor Strunk joins to discuss Robert Rodriguez's 1998 Breakfast-Club-Meets-Body-Snatchers riff The Faculty. Boasting a memorable cast of young up-and-comers and a script written by Scream-scribe Kevin Williamson, the film is both playfully self-aware and slyly subversive in its explorations of social hierarchies and the omnipresent 90s fixation with conformity to the monoculture. We begin by exploring how the film updates the Body Snatcher narrative, borrowing (and explicitly citing) the literary works of Robert A. Heinlen and Jack Finney, as well as both previous Body Snatchers film adaptations by Don Siegel and Philip Kaufman. Then, we contend with some of the movie's most intriguing premises - its assertions about capitalist hierarchies and how they maintain the oppression of marginalized out-groups as well as how American society impedes gratifying sexual expression (especially for women). Finally, we examine the deceptively cynical ending and what it suggests about the stickiness of the neoliberal order, its structural hold on the horizons of our sociopolitical imagination.

Click here to send us a message!Just in time for Halloween, we're revisiting two of our favorite classic 90's horror flicks. Fresh off an Academy Award for Pulp Fiction, Quentin Tarantino teamed with director Robert Rodriguez for From Dusk Till Dawn, starring Tarantino and George Clooney. Rodriguez would follow that up with The Faculty, from writer Kevin Williamson. With sprawling casts and self-referential scripts, these films still hold up among the best horror of the 1990's. 

Do you like scary movies?? We do! Hayley's got the keys to the canon vault this month, and uses her power to induct an all-time classic VHS slasher, one of the best spooky season movies of all time! It's 1996's Scream, directed by Wes Craven, written by Kevin Williamson, and starring Neve Campbell, David Arquette, Courtney Cox, Rose McGowan, Matthew Lillard, Skeet Ulrich, Jamie Kennedy, Drew Barrymore and Henry Winkler. We've also got a theatrical field report on the very mixed bag that is Tron: Ares and I think you can guess which host paid to see that! I'll write more copy later. For now, here's the episode. 

Believe it or not, Kicking the Seat has never done a trailer reaction video! That changes today, as Ian reviews the newly released Scream 7 preview!Original series writer Kevin Williamson steps into the director's chair for one last (?) showdown between Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) and the latest incarnation of the Ghostface killer! Can Williamson reinvigorate a franchise that has more soft reboots than a computer made out of pillows? Or will this prove to be another in a long line of increasingly comical, "How many are there?" slasher movie memes?Time will tell, but in the meantime you can join Ian as he straddles the line of fair-use, taste, and credulity! Scream 7 will premiere only in theatres on February 27, 2026, courtesy of Paramount Pictures.And because it's Scary Season, Kicking the Seat has teamed once again with Horror 101 with Dr. AC to help out a worthy cause!

In the early 1990s, the college town of Gainesville,Florida was paralyzed by fear. Over just three days, five students were brutally murdered in their own apartments, victims of Danny Rolling, the man the press would call The Gainesville Ripper. His crimes were savage, his methods deliberate, and the terror he left behind felt like something straight out of a horror movie.Years later, screenwriter Kevin Williamson watched a documentary about those killings while home alone. That fear he experienced while watching that documentary became the spark for Wes Craven's Scream (1996). Set in the quiet town of Woodsboro, Scream follows a masked killer who taunts his victims with phone calls and deadly games, blurring the line between fiction and reality. What began as a true story of terror became a movie that made us all ask the same question…“What's your favorite scary movie?”Sources:World's Most Evil Killers: S3,EP13 https://maamodt.asp.radford.edu/psyc%20405/serial%20killers/rolling,%20danny%20-%202004.pdfhttps://www.ksla.com/video/2024/03/29/archives-murders-tom-julie-sean-grissom-shreveport-la-1989/https://www.shreveporttimes.com/story/news/crime/2019/11/08/grissom-family-murders-shreveport-louisiana-gainesville-murders/4157607002/https://www.aetv.com/articles/how-serial-killer-danny-rolling-inspired-scream-with-his-1990-slayingshttps://people.com/serial-killer-gainesville-ripper-danny-rolling-exclusive-11763591https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Rollinghttps://www.tampabay.com/archive/1993/02/20/5-dead-may-have-been-stalked/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTvIh8rC4akSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

"Can I please get another glass of Chardonnay please?" We're back on our horror icon Michael Myers this week as we look back at Halloween: H20. Released for the 20th anniversary of John Carpenter's original summer of 1998, it was an early capitalizer of nostalgia culture, this time scrapping 4, 5, and 6 (The Thorn Trilogy) in favor of a more streamlined story. Jamie Lee Curtis is back playing Laurie Strode, after a seventeen-year hiatus. Laurie is in hidding after faking her own death after the events of Halloween II, and is the head mistress of a excluvie west coast boarding school. It's the type of soap oprea backstory we love, and the Spanish style board school gives it an odd flavor that all of the movies don't have. The end result is a short and sweet little 90s post-Scream slasher. Seriously, with credits, this movie runs a brisk 86 minutes, that includes the  ten-minute prologue before the credits. When JLC appears on screen, there are under seventy minutes left! We talk about Kevin Williamson's uncredited rewrite, its very WB-friendly cast, and don't worry, we talk extensively about Josh Harnett's goat-crewed bangs. The hair deserves its own Wikipedia page at this point. H20 is hardly a perfect movie, but we stand by that it has aged better than most of the sequels, including the recent David Gordon Green movies. It's Halloween, everyone is entitled to one good scare!  Thank you for listening, and don't forget to subscribe, rate, and review us on Apple Podcasts! www.patreon.com/moviesthatmadeusgay Facebook/Instagram: @moviesthatmadeusgay Bluesky: @MTMUGPod.bsky.social Scott Youngbauer: Twitter @oscarscott / Instagram @scottyoungballer Peter Lozano: Twitter/Instagram @peterlasagna

There was a bit of a bidding war when an upcoming writer called Kevin Williamson penned an idea called Scary Movie. It'd change its name to Scream a little way down the road, but having been inspired by a creepy night when he was housesitting, Williamson went with a lower offer, and the company most likely to actually make the film. The problem? Nobody wanted to direct Scream. At first, including the man who did. The brothers Strause meanwhile had huge successes in visual effects, and made their directorial debut with the, er, 'less successful' Aliens Vs Predator - Requiem. For their next film as directors? They wanted something they had more control over - Skyline - and it turned out it was really useful one of them had just bought a new apartment... Stories of both are told in this episode...

Hey! Our Halloween Series kicks off with a hit horror flick from the 90s--Wes Craven's Scream. This one has everything, from teen movie icons to self-deprecating satire.

This is a bloody epic, so it just seems to fit. Enjoy!

A killer fisherman? A web of lies and guilt? 90s teens standing together on a poster in a vaguely triangular formation? It's all from the #twisted mind of Kevin Williamson! We're back with a new franchise: I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER. It's still summer right? August 17th is still summer. Not even up for debate really. Anyway, it feels kind of funny doing this franch before Williamson's superior SCREAM but they made too many of those and this series has a new one out, also titled I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER so that's what we're doing because it's still summer.In addition, Alex and Ben share a few other films they've been watching such as WOULD YOU RATHER?, ZABRISKIE POINT, SUMMERTIME, and the hottest superhero of the summer SUPERMAN.We'll be back next week with the second film in the series, the somewhat confusingly titled I STILL KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER.Follow us @thefranchisees on Instagram and Twitter and email us at thefranchiseespod@gmail.com
