Is LucasFilm finally preparing to announce Kathleen Kennedy's replacement… or is something else going on behind the scenes? On today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, we break down the latest report suggesting Lucasfilm is setting up new co-presidents and what that could mean for the future of Star Wars, Disney, and the studio's leadership moving forward. We'll also be talking about the brand-new Avengers trailer dropping this morning and what impact it could have on Marvel's upcoming slate. Plus, Bond rumors continue to heat up as Callum Turner is reportedly emerging as a frontrunner for 007. We'll discuss whether he fits the role and what direction the franchise may be heading. In Middle-earth news, Ian McKellen confirms that Gandalf — along with Frodo — may be returning in upcoming Lord of the Rings projects. What does that mean for the future of Tolkien adaptations? And finally, James Wan has expressed interest in directing Avatar 4 — so we'll explore whether that pairing makes sense creatively and commercially.

Episode Summary Frank and Jonathan are officially back for 2026 after a hectic but fun holiday break, including the Geek Freaks Network Christmas party and a little self-awareness about how often podcasters say "you know." From there, they hand out their personal "best of 2025" picks across movies, TV, superhero projects, and games, plus run through the community poll winners. Then it's full speed into 2026 hype: a family-friendly movie calendar, the big "adult list" blockbusters (including the absolute chaos of Avengers: Doomsday and Dune 3 landing the same day), and the TV slate they're most excited to keep on the radar. They close with a spoiler-heavy talk on the Stranger Things finale and what the show stuck the landing on, especially character growth, the goodbye energy, and how cinematic the final battles felt. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 Welcome back, holiday break recap, and the Geek Freaks Network Christmas party 01:45 "Best of 2025" picks: movies, TV, and what surprised them 04:26 Superhero movie and superhero show poll results (plus some spicy takes) 10:16 Game of the year voting and falling back on comfort games 11:38 Best villain debate and why Pennywise took over the conversation 14:50 2026 family movie calendar (kid-friendly theater picks) 20:22 2026 blockbuster calendar: 28 Years Later, Project Hail Mary, Ready or Not 2, and more 26:43 The "event day" problem: Avengers: Doomsday and Dune 3 on the same date 28:22 2026 TV hype: The Boys, Game of Thrones spin-offs, Star Trek, One Piece, Lanterns, and more 38:46 Stranger Things finale review: the goodbye, the battle, and what hit hardest 47:15 Dungeons and Dragons sidebar and why they need binders like Stranger Things 50:01 "Most cinematic finale" talk and the Abyss/Dimension X discussion Key Takeaways Sinners was Frank's clear movie of 2025, with major praise for the craft and the left-turn genre surprise. Superman won the community superhero movie vote, but Thunderbolts got real respect for performances and exceeding expectations. Andor is still the "tell your friends they're missing out" show, even if Stranger Things owned the bigger pop culture moment. The superhero show vote was tight, and the conversation around Daredevil: Born Again came with real critiques about structure and payoff. 2026 is stacked across both "take your kid to the movies" picks and big-ticket IMAX events. Stranger Things earned its goodbye, especially by bringing the focus back to friendship, growing up, and the reality that life moves on. Memorable Quotes "You realize how much you say 'you know' when you're podcasting." "It felt like a finale divided in two." "This is about friends and not just this big brand fight." "Don't let Disney brush it off. Watch it and enjoy this fresh idea from Marvel." "As much as they're saying bye to each other, they're saying bye to us as well." Poll and Discussion Highlights Mentioned Best superhero movie vote: Superman took the top spot (with Thunderbolts close behind in their personal debate). Best superhero show vote: Daredevil: Born Again edged out Peacemaker in a near tie. Game of the year vote: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 came out on top. Best villain talk: Pennywise (Welcome to Derry) dominated the conversation, with shout-outs to other standouts.

This week, the boys drink some whiskey and head to 1960 to discuss the less famous slasher movie of the year, “Peeping Tom”! Directed by Michael Powell, this film was a major inspiration for Martin Scorsese and a terror to the people of England, leading to its removal from theaters after only 5 days. Unlike “Psycho”, it was subsequently banned from many other countries… yet today, this movie feels like a tone poem of modern culture.

She said if it weren't for them, she'd have gone with Ozzy because she's done everything she's wanted to do in this life.She added, quote, "Years ago, when I had one of my mental breakdowns, I went into a little facility to help with my head. There were two girls over there. They didn't know each other, but they were in there, each [of their] mothers had committed suicide. "I saw the state that these two young women were in and what it had done to their lives, and I thought, I will never, ever, ever do that to my kids."

Like Mother, Like Son: Judge Judy's Son Lands His Own Courtroom ShowJudge Judy Sheindlin (SHINED-LIN) is officially passing the gavel to the next generation. Her son, Adam Levy, is set to star in his very own courtroom series called Adam's Law. MOVING ON INTO MOVIE NEWS:Over the break, we found out that a new documentary about Corey Feldman is coming out. And in this doc there were allegations about Corey Haim, his costar in Lost Boys molested him while filming. Then a week later, he is now denying those claims. https://pagesix.com/2025/12/20/celebrity-news/corey-feldman-walks-back-claim-that-corey-haim-molested-him/ · Mickey Rourke has turned to a GoFundMe campaign to help stave off eviction from his Los Angeles home after falling nearly $60,000 behind on rent, People magazine reports. https://people.com/mickey-rourke-using-gofundme-prevent-eviction-after-falling-nearly-usd60k-behind-rent-11878821?· Wild New Lawsuit Allegation: Is Riley Keough the Biological Mother of John Travolta's Son?Okay, there is some truly bizarre legal drama unfolding involving the Presley family and John Travolta. A new lawsuit has dropped a massive bombshell, alleging that Riley Keough is actually the biological mother of John Travolta and Kelly Preston's youngest son, Ben. AND FINALLYHollywood's Biggest Faceplants: The 10 Most Disappointing Flops of 20252025 had its hits, but let's be honest—it was also a year where some massive blockbusters crashed and burned. From superhero fatigue to Oscar-bait that nobody bit on, here's a look at the ten movies that just couldn't get audiences into seats this year. 1. Thunderboltsa. Marvel is definitely feeling the pain. While this movie made nearly $400 million, that's peanuts compared to the glory days of Avengers: Endgame. It suffered from the same problem as Captain America: Brave New World: it just felt like reheated leftovers from a saga that ended years ago. Aside from Superman, it looks like superhero fatigue has officially set in. 1. Snow Whitea. This was the exception to the rule that Disney remakes print money. It didn't even make back its budget. The movie had an identity crisis—trying to be both a classic recreation and a subversive twist—but the real killer was the PR nightmare. Between the casting controversies and political debates, the movie was "covered in mud" before it even hit theaters. 1. Mickey 17a. Everyone was dying to see what director Bong Joon Ho would do after Parasite. The problem? We waited too long. After endless delays, the hype died. When it finally dropped in February, reviews called it "toothless" and confused. Even Robert Pattinson couldn't save this sci-fi epic from being a disappointment. 1. After the Hunta. You'd think Julia Roberts and the director of Call Me by Your Name would be a slam dunk. Nope. It made less than $10 million globally (which is like, half of Roberts' salary). The movie was too long, too rambling, and felt more like a streaming series than a cinema event. 1. Christya. Sydney Sweeney is everywhere, but apparently, that doesn't guarantee box office sales. Her boxing biopic had one of the worst opening weekends ever for a wide release. It seems social media fame doesn't always translate to ticket sales. Sweeney defended it, saying she made it for "impact," not numbers, which is good, because the numbers were bad. 1. I Know What You Did Last Summera. Studios thought they could pull a Scream with this 90s revival. The issue? People actually love Scream. Nobody really cares about "The Fisherman" or the original 1997 film enough to show up for a legacy sequel. 1. Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowherea. Jeremy Allen White played The Boss, but audiences didn't show up. Why? Because the movie focused on a depressing, quiet period of Bruce Springsteen's life where he moped around a bedroom recording acoustic tracks. People wanted the stadium anthems and energy, not the gloom. 1. Elio a. Pixar had a huge win with Inside Out 2, but Elio brought them back down to earth. The original director left mid-production, and the final product felt like a movie with no reason to exist. It was hard to explain the plot, and audiences just didn't connect with the aliens. 1. M3GAN 2.0a. The first M3GAN was a viral hit because it was campy, slasher fun. The sequel failed because it tried to pivot into a sprawling, geopolitical action thriller. The producers admitted they overthought it—they should have just given the people more of the killer doll they loved. 1. The Smashing Machinea. Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson really wants an Oscar. He teamed up with Emily Blunt and an indie director for this gritty MMA drama. But here's the thing: nobody goes to a Rock movie to be depressed. It was a bleak story about addiction, and audiences preferred to stay home.

Hero, something is happening beneath Dormere.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       Deep underground, silver-lined tunnels pulse with an energy we don't understand. The Knucklers' parents say they can help us unlock our powers. Mr. Honeybee doesn't trust them. Roger Robot is on high alert. Warpino has theories, but even he's baffled.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              And just when we think we're ahead of the mystery— Someone hacks my BattleBuzz helmet.

On this remastered episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, we complete our 3-part series on Picking a TTRPG that is not DnD or Pathfinder by adventuring deep into the vast and thrilling universe of tabletop RPGs. From the spine-chilling cosmic horror of Alien RPG to the gritty nihilism of Death in Space, we're exploring the diverse themes of space exploration, teenage superheroes, cyberpunk chaos, and even the villainous fun of Necessary Evil. Join us as we tackle the art of balancing crunch with accessibility, dive into the rise of one-page RPGs for quick and chaotic adventures, and share tips on crafting immersive narratives that players will love. Whether you're a seasoned RPG fan or just starting your journey, this episode is packed with laughs, insights, and galactic-level inspiration. Summary In this action-packed episode, the hosts boldly go where no podcasters have gone before, diving into the endless void of tabletop RPGs. They tackle the cosmic horror of Alien RPG, the nihilistic beauty of Death in Space, and even dare to balance crunchiness with accessibility (spoiler: it's like herding space cats). From dark Imperium nihilism to Star Wars' Force-wielding antics, they traverse the galaxy of RPG themes, stopping only to admire the Cyberpunk neon and hack a Shadowrun corporate server. Marvel superheroes swing by, Necessary Evil villains cackle maniacally, and Masks' teen heroes roll for high school drama. Just when you think they're done, they reveal the rise of one-page RPGs—because why spend hours preparing when you can save the universe in 15 minutes? Grab your dice and your sense of humor, and tune in to explore the weird, wonderful, and wildly nerdy world of tabletop gaming.

Unique mechanics, like stress systems in Alien RPG or the survival-focused gameplay of Death in Space, enhance tension and narrative depth. Cinematic scenarios and simplified resource management can elevate player engagement, while pre-generated characters and storytelling mechanics provide fresh dynamics for immersive gameplay. Exploring specific genres, like space horror, post-apocalyptic worlds, or teenage superhero drama in Masks, can help groups find the perfect game. Beloved franchises like Star Wars RPG and Marvel Multiverse capture iconic elements, while innovative hybrids like Cyberpunk and Shadowrun blend themes in exciting ways. Lesser-known RPGs often hide creative gems, and one-page RPGs stand out as quick, accessible options for introducing new players or enjoying fast-paced fun. Ultimately, balancing crunch with accessibility and understanding player preferences ensures a great tabletop experience for everyone.

After an unplanned holiday hiatus, Thaddeus and Chauncey return by trying to figure out what the hell is wrong with the Rams. They look at how much the newly extended Quentin Lake has been missed, how the defense has cratered, and how Matthew Stafford screwed himself out of MVP. They figure out a path for the Rams to be successful come playoff time and spend a little time celebrating the Chargers making the big dance. Also, they preview the big week 18 scenarios, coaches who could be fired and what happened to the Lions. Briefly, they touch on the Lakers and Clippers. Afterwards, they breakdown the teasers for "Avengers: Doomsday" and figure out what the hell Marvel is doing plus share their optimism for "Wonder Man". Later, they review the first trailer for "The Odyssey", including the IMAX special preview, and say good-bye to Isiah Whitlock Jr. Finally, the guys ring in the new year by sharing what they watched including "Vanderpump Rules", "WWE Raw", "F1", "Avatar: Fire and Ash", "Bugonia", "Fallout", "Pluribus", "Modern Family", "Bob's Burgers", "Stranger Things",  "Married with Children", and more.LA PODFIDENTIAL is part of the LAFB PODCAST NETWORKFollow us on bluesky: @bigchaunc64.bsky.social, Insta: @bigchaunc64, and Letterboxd: ChaunceyT Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Composer Dave Porter joins SCORE to discuss the musical storytelling of paradigm-shattering sci-fi series PLURIBUS on Apple TV, the process of working with creator Vince Gilligan on Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, and why a tight-knit creative team is the key to never, ever letting a spoiler leak before an episode is out.Dave discusses his upbringing in the Washington D.C. area, and how his early life competing in piano competitions didn't really lead him into composing — until the digital revolution unlocked new musical exploration.Plus, how to write a human-sounding opening theme for Pluribus with carefully-chosen syllables, as sung by a choir. Why it takes a day or more to spot a single episode. And how Pluribus' star, played by Rhea Seehorn, has her own unique sound.Interview by Kenny Holmes and Matt Schrader in Hollywood.

Thomas and Frank look back on the movies and TV that defined their 2025, from why Superman hit so hard to how Marvel's three-film run landed with Thunderbolts, Fantastic Four, and Captain America: Brave New World. They also talk about the stuff that disappointed them, why TV felt like it "won" this year, and the shows they could not stop thinking about, including IT: Welcome to Derry, Alien: Earth, and Andor. To close it out, they shift into 2026 mode: what's got them genuinely excited again, which upcoming releases feel like "event" movies, and how they want to evolve Challenge Accepted next year by being more personal and more present on social. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 – Welcome back, what this episode covers (2025 favorites + 2026 hype) 00:33 – Thomas check-in and the newborn update 01:32 – The baby's first Marvel movie (yes, really) 03:31 – Quick run through the 2025 movie list 03:55 – Why Superman was the movie of the year 04:02 – F1 as the surprise hit 07:15 – What worked in Superman (comic-book storytelling and trusting the audience) 10:56 – "I needed that movie this year" 11:03 – Marvel's 2025 slate starts: Brave New World, Fantastic Four, Thunderbolts 11:56 – Why Thunderbolts is the one that felt different 18:12 – Sinners and the hunger for original stories 22:25 – Weapons (and the conversation spirals into other watchlist picks) 24:56 – K-Pop Demon Hunters love and why it clicked 28:38 – Disappointments and missed watches, including Star Trek: Section 31 30:24 – "TV shows dominate" and why this year proved it 30:53 – TV highlights sprint: Welcome to Derry, Stranger Things, Daredevil, Alien: Earth, and more 32:04 – Andor praise and why the release format worked 35:01 – Frank's top TV list: Chief of War, Paradise, Player Base 36:03 – Alien: Earth reactions (including the ending debate) 37:08 – Next year's challenge (Fargo Season 4) 39:10 – Revisiting Marvel 2025: what each movie represents and what Marvel should learn 41:33 – The big disappointment: Chair Company (plus Ironheart) 45:03 – Quick plug: Survivor 49 coverage and Survivor 50 excitement 46:11 – 2026 hype begins: Supergirl and the DCU momentum 50:02 – The Odyssey and why it feels like an "event" movie 51:15 – Marvel needs to "earn" the hype again 52:51 – Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping and why it could be huge 53:16 – Rapid fire 2026 watchlist: Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Project Hail Mary, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple 55:01 – Why seeing Spider-Man filmed "for people" matters 55:55 – The Mandalorian and Grogu as a real theatrical Star Wars moment 57:54 – What they want to improve on Challenge Accepted next year 58:40 – Social media mindset: be natural, be present, stop over-polishing 59:52 – Outro + how to send in your challenge Key Takeaways Superman landed because it played like an actual comic-book story and trusted the audience to keep up. Marvel's 2025 trio felt like three different "versions" of the brand, and Thunderbolts was the one that showed the most heart and restraint. Sinners is a great example of why original stories can still feel like a must-watch cultural moment. 2025 was stacked for TV, and the list of standouts is honestly longer than most years' movie lists. Andor remains the gold standard for prestige franchise storytelling, and the release strategy helped it stick. 2026 looks like it could swing back to a movie-forward year with multiple "event" releases on the calendar. They want the show to feel more personal in 2026, including more natural social posts and more listener involvement. Quotes "Talking about you, some of our favorite movies and shows from 2025 and what we're hyped for in 2026." "Yeah it was I needed that movie this year. Like I needed it." "They gave a director a chance to tell their story." "Right now, welcome to dairy. Holy cow. These last couple episodes have been so damn fire." "It makes me cry that it's the finale." "You don't necessarily need to make a polished post." "It's for people, not just, you know, for box office numbers."

How can this reptilian miracle be?  Long before the organization was corrupted by Shredder, the Foot Clan's original purpose was to save Japan from Kaiju! Now, in the present day, Godzilla and its fellow monsters have reappeared. Not only is the Foot not prepared to stop them…it would seem Shredder himself is behind the attacks! The Turtles are always crossing over into rad nerd realms, but this one might be the king crossover of them all.  The Best Comics of 2025 Part One Category Timestamps: Intro (New Year's Intentions) - 2:52 Global Comix Gold Bundle - 12:23 Best Sleeper Superhero Story - 19:16 - WINNER (TIE): Supergirl: Universe End and Two-Face: Trial Separation (DC Comics) Best Anthology - 30:45 - WINNER: Monkey Meat: The Summer Batch (Image Comics) Best Adaptation - 37:47 - WINNER: Dracula Book II: The Brides (Dark Horse Comics) Best Memoir - 44:26 - WINNER: The Ephemerata (Fantagraphics) Most Engaged Comic - 53:28 - WINNER: Black Arms to Hold You Up (Pantheon) Best Limited Series - 1:02:23 - WINNER: Spectrum (Mad Cave Studios) Best Ongoing Series - 1:13:18 - WINNER: Absolute Batman (DC Comics) Best Original Graphic Novel - 1:24:38 - WINNER: Drome (23rd St. Books) Cartoonist of the Year - 1:31:38 - WINNER: Patrick Horvath (Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees: Rite of Spring) Jesse Tapia II Champ Stamp - 1:37:27 - WINNER: Randy Clute (Our Day) Lisa's Pick - 1:42:52 - WINNER: The Confessional (Silver Sprocket) Brad's Pick - 1:45:40 - WINNER: More Weight (Top Shelf Productions) Final Round of Plugs (PHEW): Support the Podcast by Joining OUR PATREON COMMUNITY.

Brim and Mr. Greer are back at it again. Apart from all the usual shenanigans, the gang chats about everything in pop culture with all the trimmings and is joined by guest host, Dayna Pereira (The Dirty Little Secrets Club | Loreplay). They discuss the former exotic dancer turned attorney (good to see some actually did pay their way through college), Keanu Reeves' $100 million legacy, and how Netflix will no longer be allowing streaming from phones to tv anymore. The crew also chats about the continuing story of Tyler Chase of Ned's Declassified including how a co-star tried helping him get clean, the Great Payless Sacm, and the fake news story that got us thinking. The cast talks about the fake restaurant who scammed influencers, went viral on TripAdvisor, and became the number one restaurant in London. They talk about Marvel coming in a big way to 2026 including comic accurate costumes for major characters, how the NY Jets did a very bad thing, and the cast laughs at the new iPhone sock. The crew also discusses shooting your shot for $1k, Phil Rivers returning to the Colts and how Kings and Queens of the past had tushie wipers. The crew chats about entertainment news, opinions and other cool stuff and things. Enjoy.Wherever you listen to podcasts & www.thegrindhouseradio.comhttps://linktr.ee/thegrindhouseradio

For this special episode, we're returning to the bracket format, but slimmed down for just your three co-hosts: we made up an Elite Eight of TV superheroes -- no one from the DC or Marvel universes allowed -- and argued through which deserved to go all the way. Which hero stands atop the rest of our selected comers? Listen and learn! TOPICS Lead Topic:

In this episode, we sit down with one of the defining writers of modern Marvel to talk about what's next, what still matters, and what didn't quite land. Paul discusses his two new Marvel series coming in 2026, including his long-awaited return to The Sentry, launching this March. We dig into why this new Sentry story feels necessary now, how it builds on the psychological core that made the character unforgettable, and what Paul wants to explore that he couldn't before.We also get an exclusive look at Captain Marvel: Dark Star, a story that reaches back into Carol Danvers' Ms. Marvel era to investigate an unsolved crime that has lingered in the shadows for decades. Paul breaks down why revisiting that moment matters—and how reframing the past can change how we understand Carol today.The conversation turns reflective as we revisit Paul's Marvel Knights era, including his landmark run on Inhumans—what that period at Marvel felt like from the inside, the creative freedom it allowed, and why those stories continue to resonate.And yes—we talk about television. Paul finally watched the ABC Inhumans series, and he's candid about his reaction, where it went wrong, and why adaptations miss the mark when they lose sight of character and theme. It's a wide-ranging, honest conversation about legacy, reinvention, and returning to the worlds you helped define—on your own terms.
