Ewan and Lachlan share their thoughts on Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, talk about reboots, spin-off and sequels to Blade Runner, The Office, Lord of the Rings, Superman and Robin Hood. Ewan binged through all 10 Planet of the Apes films, a range of disappointing 2024 releases like Arcadian, Unfrosted, Humane, Garfield, Prom Dates & Founders Day. He liked Turtles All the Way Down though. Lachlan watched Late Night With the Devil and struggles his way through a temporary set up this week.

MONSTER is Incredibly Underrated - Review
Ewan and Lachlan revisit a film they've already reviewed 9 months at last year's Cannes Film Festival. This time they get to share their in-depth spoiler thoughts on the latest film from Hirokazu Kore-eda Monster. In preparation for a movie bracket on Denis Villeneuve, they have been (re)watching his filmography in addition to catching the latest (serious) Adam Sandler movie on Netflix called Spaceman. Ewan went on a binge of new releases with Damsel, Ricky Stanicky, Kung Fu Panda 4, Shogun, Megamind, and the Doom Syndicate and he even made time to see Dune Part 2 again, but in IMAX this time.
