Ewan is back, and the episode stays reversed! We got a spoiler review for The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim and a breakdown of why Secret Level falls short. Lachlan watched Conclave and Escape From the 21st Century. Ewan caught up with Nutcrackers, Creature Commandoes, and Skelton Crew and watched A Man on the Inside. He also saw the Robbie Williams biopic Better Man early and started playing Balatro. The Game Awards just happened and we got thoughts on some announcements. Critic's Choice and Golden Globes nominations were announced and the Sundance 2025 lineup was revealed.
202 - The Substance, Lionsgate & AI, and Netflix Geeked Week
Ewan and Lachlan talk Emmies, lineups for the film festivals in Zurich & Gent, and the trailers for Mickey17, Blitz, and Brothers. Ewan got reviews for The Penguin, Agatha All Along, Transformers One, Wolfs, The Wild Robot & Rebel Ridge and Lachlan has thoughts on Lionsgate usage of Generative AI. Finally, they review the disgusting (complimentary) instant horror classic The Substance with Demi Moore and Margaret Qualley.
THE FALL GUY is Fun as F**k!
Ewan and Lachlan share their thoughts on David Leitch's The Fall Guy starring generational movie star Ryan Gosling and fake Dune director Emily Blunt. They both watched a bunch of Alex Garland films for an upcoming director bracket, and Lachlan even made himself sit through Rebel Moon Part 2: The Scargiver. It was painful... Ewan watched the original Mad Max trilogy, The Nice Guys, and The Man from U.N.C.L.E. Lachlan shows off his pricey 4K steelbook purchases and argues why 28 Years Later should still be filmed in the bad video quality of the first one.
