Movie News Roundup — A fast-paced intro to the week's biggest film headlines, from Sydney Sweeney's PR problem to Heat 2 finally moving forward with director Michael Mann and Leonardo DiCaprio possibly being attached, plus the official title and release date for The Social Network II, written and directed by Aaron Sorkin. We also get an Ocean's 14 Update with George Clooney teasing a new chapter in the heist franchise. We map out potential plots and possible casts while we also dive into the news about Bradley Cooper starring opposite Margot Robbie in a new Ocean's 11 prequel. We speculate on tone, era, and how this would fit into the beloved franchise universe. In addition, we dive into Michael B. Jordan and Austin Butler being in talks for Joseph Kosinski's take on Miami Vice. We explore how a modern reboot could reinterpret the Miami underworld and style for today's audiences. Nostalgia junkies will also love the news about Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz being rumored to return in a fourth installment of The Mummy franchise as well as Gremlins 3 landing a 2027 release date with Chris Columbus directing. We also take a look at the exciting announcement that Tom Ford has set a bold new project with an all-star cast. We forecast stylistic choices, potential genres, and where this film could fit in Ford's auteur catalog following his last film in 2016. We then wrap things up with movie trailers for Scream 7, Marty Supreme, The Housemaid, Primate, Toy Story 5 and The Devil Wears Prada 2. Did you miss the news? Because we sure missed bringing it to you!

Frank and Jonathan kick off with announcements and a fun question of the week about sequels that outshine the originals. News hits include The Mummy's return with Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz, the 2029 plan for K-Pop Demon Hunters, and Grand Theft Auto VI shifting to November 19, 2026. Frank reviews Predator: Badlands and explains why it works for both Predator fans and sci-fi diehards. Then Ken Maney of the ODPH joins for a thoughtful conversation about podcasting in 2025, community, video vs audio, and practical advice for new and veteran creators. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 Welcome, intros, and what's ahead 00:13 Announcements: BlizzCon dates, SF Fan Expo plans, and Patreon holiday care packages 01:50 Question of the Week: Sequels better than the originals 06:24 News: The Mummy returns with Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz 14:18 K-Pop Demon Hunters sequel targeting 2029, expectations and story threads 20:11 GTA 6 moves to November 19, 2026 and what that means for the industry 26:58 Review: Predator: Badlands (world-building, effects, performances, and that ending) 40:19 Interview: Ken Maney (ODPH) on origin stories, community, and staying power 1:21:00 Wrap up and ways to support Key Takeaways Sequels can outpace originals when they sharpen tone and character focus. The Mummy's return works best if it leans into family-friendly adventure with practical set pieces. K-Pop Demon Hunters has time to scale up music collabs and world-building, even with a long runway. GTA 6's delay is a net positive if it delivers a polished launch and avoids crowding the release calendar. Predator: Badlands thrives on a tight premise, clear character intent, and a mix of practical work with CG. Podcasting longevity comes from community, consistency, and knowing your "why," not from chasing viral tricks. Video helps some shows, but strong content and an audio-first workflow still carry a lot of weight. New creators should focus on making the best episode they can today, then repeat. Veterans should reconnect with their original purpose to beat burnout. Quotes "Be comfortable being uncomfortable. If you want to grow, you have to push yourself." — Ken Maney "Everybody thinks they're a content creator until it's time to create content." — Ken Maney "Don't worry about everybody else. Worry about your own house." — Ken Maney "Predator: Badlands works because the intent is simple. Kill the monster. The rest builds from there." — Frank "Delay GTA 6 if it means a cleaner launch. One bad week can sink a decade of goodwill." — Frank Call to Action If you enjoyed this episode, follow and subscribe, leave a quick rating, and drop a review.

This episode proves that nothing gold can stay, especially your 401k, as we kick things off with the revelation that October saw the worst tech layoffs since 2003, all while "Big Short" genius Michael Burry decided to bet a billion dollars on the inevitable AI bubble bursting. The villains of the week are legion: the FCC is officially making it easier for internet companies to charge us even more hidden fees; Elon Musk not only got his $1 trillion pay package approved—despite Tesla sales collapsing nearly 90% in some countries—but he also teased a flying car, clearly living in his own "Golden Dome" fantasy, which the Pentagon is happily subsidizing; and in a stunning display of entitlement, Mark Zuckerberg opened an illegal school, which is somehow less shocking than Meta's claim that their massive porn stash was purely for "personal use," not AI training. The bad news doesn't stop there, with Texas suing Roblox over 'pixel pedophiles,' though at least a rural Michigan healthcare system is doing some good by using drones to improve care.Jumping over to Media Candy, since we're all emotionally scarred by the sheer awful-ness of The Witcher S4—a season so bad it "broke" The Critical Drinker—we need some comfort viewing. We're deep-diving into the political chess of The Diplomat and escaping into the sheer volume of competitive cooking shows, including the standard Halloween and Holiday Baking Championships, plus the delightfully ridiculous Harry Potter: Wizards of Baking S2; we also took a look at Pluribus, Knife Edge, Black Rabbit, and the trailer for Tron: Ares, while cheering the fact that Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz are set to revive The Mummy franchise for a fourth film. In Apps & Doodads, we're all mourning the eventual death of simple, good tech as we're warned to enjoy Apple CarPlay while we still can, but at least the Lego ‘Star Trek' Set is finally here for our inner child; the real question, though, is why Automattic Inc. thinks they can claim ownership of the actual word 'Automatic.'Finally, The Dark Side with Dave Bittner reminds us that everything old is new again and ripe for monetization, whether it's Miss Piggy potentially bringing back The Muppets to the movies or the sleek, blacked-out remake of the Commodore 64, not to mention that cool Tron Arcade Cabinet Miniature Model. However, the present is still a complete dumpster fire: a Google AI model allegedly accused a senator of sexual assault, and internal documents show that Meta is earning a fortune on a massive deluge of fraudulent ads, proving that the only thing getting healthier is our paranoia, though Dave did throw in a curveball with some special jar lids and seeds for growing organic sprouts. We finish, as always, with the obligatory Closing Shout-Outs because even cynical geeks need validation.Sponsors:MasterClass - Get an additional 15% off any annual membership at MASTERCLASS.com/GRUMPYOLDGEEKSGusto - Try Gusto today at gusto.com/grumpy, and get three months free when you run your first payroll.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

Jim Hill and Eric Hersey dig into a newly surfaced Universal guest survey that hints at Epic Universe joining the resort's Annual Pass lineup — and what that could mean for crowds, pricing, and park strategy. Plus, Jim shares a real-life road trip saga straight out of a Hallmark movie, and the guys unpack Universal's latest headlines from Orlando to Hollywood. NEWS A listener-sent Universal survey suggests Epic Universe may soon be included in AP tiers. Comcast's Q3 results show a 19% jump in theme park revenue, driven by Epic's first full quarter. The Burning Blade Tavern's fire effect goes dark — and fans dub it “The Invisible Blade.” Jim explains why Spider-Man still appears in Universal marketing — thanks to a contract clause requiring 20% Marvel representation in Islands of Adventure ads. Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz return for a brand-new Mummy sequel, proving Universal's monster legacy isn't dead yet. FEATUREJim continues his deep dive into Universal's ill-fated Dark Universe — the studio's ambitious attempt to build a monster-filled cinematic universe. From Dracula Untold to The Mummy (2017), discover how even A-list stars and big budgets couldn't resurrect the undead franchise.

Matt and Eric cover THE MUMMY's big return -- with OG stars Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz -- the the SCREAM 7 trailer, the death of the STAR TREK Kelvin-verse, MISS PIGGY, and more...
I have a small and weird list of things that bug me. A Frenchman earlier this year discovered a gold treasure worth $800,000 while digging a swimming pool in his garden. Which reminded me of when I had to bury our family dog in an awkward place. Worst time-capsule ever! MaineHealth apologizes for sending death notices to 500+ living people. I blame the lazy I.T. guy. Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz are reportedly in talks with movie executives to reunite for the next instalment of “The Mummy” franchise. Rico Dowdle was fined $14K for Key & Peele celebration, so he started a GoFundMe for charity. My awkward interaction with a fan. Stories of stealing things from the workplace.

The battle for Warner Bros. Discovery is seeing a new champion enter the ring, with Netflix making some moves to put their own bid in for the studio's properties.

Ironically, this is the same bank that worked with David Ellison at Skydance to take over Paramount whose first bid to buy Warner Bros. Discovery was rejected. It was the worst weekend at the box office this year, with ticket sales coming in at just $52.4 million. This also makes it the lowest-grossing Halloween weekend in 31 years, excluding theater closures due to COVID in 2020.

On today's Geek Freaks Headlines, we break down the big news: Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz are in talks to return for a new “The Mummy.” The film is set up at Universal with Radio Silence (Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett) directing, and reporting points to a sequel that ignores the third movie. We also talk tone, why fans wanted this, and what early creative choices suggest for the adventure-meets-horror vibe. Timestamps & Topics00:00 — Return of “The Mummy,” Fraser and Weisz talks, nostalgia context 00:18 — Radio Silence attached; quick recap of their recent films 00:34 — Expecting scarier elements and classic undead set pieces 00:50 — Timeline status, what's next, promise to follow production updates Key TakeawaysUniversal is moving forward with a new “The Mummy,” with Fraser and Weisz in active talks. Radio Silence is attached to direct, setting expectations for energetic suspense and character-driven thrills. The third film is reportedly being sidelined, framing this as a spiritual follow-up to the first two entries. Early chatter points to a slightly scarier tone alongside the adventure flavor fans love.

Movie of the Year: 1999All About My Mother vs. The MummyWhen Pedro Met PopcornIn this special bonus podcast episode of Movie of the Year, the Taste Buds take a detour from draft formats and single-film deep dives to bring you a dynamic double feature: Pedro Almodóvar's All About My Mother (1999) and Stephen Sommers' The Mummy (1999). One is an emotionally complex, internationally acclaimed art film. The other is a crowd-pleasing adventure spectacle. And yet—they share more than you might think.This podcast review examines how both films, in vastly different genres and tones, serve as love letters to the movies that came before them. Whether referencing classic melodrama or 1930s monster movies, All About My Mother and The Mummy demonstrate that the films of 1999 have a cinematic legacy as enduring as their memory.All About My Mother (1999) Movie Review: The Emotional EpicPedro Almodóvar's All About My Mother is an intricate, compassionate examination of motherhood, identity, and grief. The film is suffused with references to cinema—from All About Eve to A Streetcar Named Desire. The Taste Buds analyze how Almodóvar uses visual language and character archetypes to update and honor classic Hollywood and European melodramas, while giving voice to marginalized characters rarely centered on screen.The Mummy (1999) Movie Discussion: A Popcorn Adventure with Classic RootsIn contrast, The Mummy updates the 1930s Universal monster movies for a late-'90s audience. With Brendan Fraser as a swashbuckling hero and Rachel Weisz as a brainy librarian-turned-explorer, the film balances horror, comedy, and romance in a pulpy, action-packed romp. The Taste Buds explore how The Mummy evokes the spirit of early adventure films while reinventing its archetypes for a modern audience.Cinema About Cinema: Film History as FoundationDespite their differences, All About My Mother and The Mummy are united by their referentiality. Both films use a rich knowledge of film history—not as a crutch, but as a launching point. Almodóvar weaves old film tropes into new emotional truths. Sommers crafts a blockbuster that lovingly revives and retools a genre. The Taste Buds discuss how both directors use nostalgia not as imitation, but as inspiration.The Taste Buds Dig In: Movie Podcast Panel ReactionsThe panelists share their favorite moments from both films, comparing the emotional stakes, visual aesthetics, and thematic resonance. How does The Mummy's big-budget spectacle stack up against the intimate drama of All About My Mother? Which film aged better? And what do they reveal about what cinema meant in 1999?Different Genres, Same Passion for CinemaAll About My Mother and The Mummy may live in different cinematic universes, but both show how the movies of 1999 mined the rich soil of film history to grow something bold and fresh. Whether it's Pedro Almodóvar's poignant melodrama or Stephen Sommers' thrilling adventure, both films prove that storytelling evolves through homage and reinvention.
This week on Challenge Accepted, Frank and Thomas unearth The Mummy (1999) and debate whether this fan-favorite adventure deserves a spot in the official Challenge Accepted Top 100 list. Originally challenged by Australian podcast pal Aaron Brasher from Fandom Portals, the duo dives into everything from the film's wild plot and iconic action to its CGI, practical effects, and Brendan Fraser's action star moment. They unpack what holds up, what doesn't, and why this movie might be the perfect time capsule of late '90s popcorn cinema. Timestamps & Topics: 00:00 Introduction & who challenged this movie 02:00 First impressions: childhood memories and DVD nostalgia 04:00 Two-minute plot rundown (with chaotic energy) 06:00 Brendan Fraser: action hero or accidental legend? 09:00 Can this franchise come back—and should Fraser lead it? 11:00 Comparing Rick O'Connell to Indiana Jones 13:00 Evelyn's character: damsel, badass, or both? 18:00 Imhotep's motivations and why he's low-key sympathetic 22:00 Side characters, comic relief, and iconic moments 24:00 Filming in Morocco and creating believable heat 25:30 The good, the bad, and the beetles of CGI 30:00 Why Brendan Fraser's fight choreography still holds up 33:00 That Egyptian score and the power of a strong soundtrack 35:00 Mid-budget movie magic: why we need more like this 38:00 Behind-the-scenes fun facts: near-death moments and more 44:00 Historical accuracy vs cinematic fun 46:00 Cast reunion and the movie's lasting cult status 47:30 Top 100 decision time—does it make the cut? Key Takeaways: Brendan Fraser choreographed much of his own action—legend. The Mummy walks the line between camp and craft, with charm to spare. This is a film that thrives on practical effects, strong chemistry, and a sense of fun. While some moments feel dated, the core still entertains in 2025. It's a solid contender for the Challenge Accepted Top 100, but is that enough? Quotes Worth Repeating: “Rick O'Connell is 90% action hero, 10% lucky idiot—and that's why we love him.” “Imhotep didn't ask to be cursed. They turned him into the villain.” “This movie feels hotter than Dune—and everyone's actually sweating.” “It's not just nostalgia, this thing's still fun start to finish.” Call to Action: Think The Mummy deserves a Top 100 spot?

The Boys look back at that seminal Oscars ceremony to figure out how it happened, plus a discussion about Rachel Weisz's win for Best Supporting Actress, Reese Witherspoon's southern accent and whatever Jon Stewart was doing in his monologue. Oh, and a breakdown of the Karen Read trial, of course. Pop, pop!
ACOFAE Podcast Presents: 202. The Mummy: "The triangle, like a pyramid, is the strongest shape." ACOFAE dips into the archives and is slyly setting up some things in the future by covering the 1999 classic action-adventure movie, The Mummy. A movie that served as the awakening for an entire generation, Brenden Fraser and Rachel Weisz knew what they were doing as Laura Marie and Jessica Marie watch them fall in love while exploring the sands of Egypt. Heartwarming and extremely funny, The Mummy holds up all these years later with wit and charm. And the hottest cast since Pirates of the Caribbean. "Why. Choose."

Send us a textRemember when blockbuster movies didn't take themselves so seriously? When they balanced action, horror, comedy, and romance without sacrificing pure entertainment value? The 1999 adventure classic "The Mummy" represents this perfect equilibrium, and we're diving headfirst into its sandy depths to uncover what makes it so enduringly appealing.Brendan Fraser's Rick O'Connell and Rachel Weisz's Evelyn Carnahan create magic on screen with their natural chemistry and witty repartee. Their relationship evolution feels authentic despite the extraordinary circumstances, providing an emotional anchor amid the supernatural chaos. Whether they're bickering over packing a suitcase or facing down an ancient evil, their scenes together sparkle with an energy rarely captured in today's blockbusters.The film's special effects present a fascinating time capsule of late '90s Hollywood innovation. Released the same year as The Phantom Menace, The Mummy showcases both cutting-edge CGI and practical effects that combine to create memorable sequences - from the sand face storm to the partially regenerated Imhotep. While some effects show their age, others remain impressively effective more than two decades later. The scarab beetles crawling under human skin still make us squirm, proving that sometimes imagination trumps perfect visual execution.We explore the fascinating historical liberties taken by the filmmakers, who borrowed real Egyptian historical figures separated by millennia and placed them together in a fictional narrative. Despite these creative choices, the production team's attention to detail in hieroglyphs, language, and cultural elements demonstrates a genuine appreciation for Egyptian history and mythology. The film manages to create an immersive world that feels respectful of its source material while prioritizing entertainment over strict historical accuracy.What makes this episode particularly compelling is our discussion about why Hollywood rarely produces mid-budget adventure films of this nature anymore. The Mummy represents a lost era when studios were willing to take chances on original adventure stories without the pressure of universe-building or franchise potential. Join us as we reminisce about this perfect popcorn movie that reminds us all why we fell in love with cinema in the first place.Twitter handles:Project Geekology: https://twitter.com/pgeekologyAnthony's Twitter: https://twitter.com/odysseyswowDakota's Twitter: https://twitter.com/geekritique_dakInstagram:https://instagram.com/projectgeekology?igshid=1v0sits7ipq9yYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@projectgeekologyGeekritique (Dakota):https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBwciIqOoHwIx_uXtYTSEbATwitch (Anthony):https://www.twitch.tv/odysseywowSupport the show

“I know I'm not one of your favorites. I'm not even welcome in your house. But I could use a little attention.” Pete's sister Amy joins us to talk about our favorite leading man, Keanu Reeves, in "Constantine", which just had its 20th anniversary last month. We know this movie is hardly perfect, but this cast, though. Keanu Reeves was directly after he made the Matrix sequels, and Rachel Weisz has a face card that none of us can deny. We'd gladly go to Hell and back for these two. Truly a fever dream of the mid-00s. Tilda Swinton plays a gender-fluid fallen angel, Gabriel. Peter Stormare from Fargo plays Satan dressed in white linens, and Shia LaBeouf may or may not be playing his exact same character from Charlies Angel's: Full Throttle. Truly a moment to be alive. We discuss Francis Lawrence's intimidating music video background, Amy and Pete's journey through Catholic school, post-Passion of the Christ Hollywood, and pre-MCU comic book movies.

While both films offer new stories, characters, and designs to the Oz pantheon, how well do they actually capture the magic of one of the greatest fantasy worlds ever imagined? How does an insomniac Dorothy and a head-stealing princess stack up against the powerful witches of Oz and James Franco?
