Episode notes

Welcome to Episode 396. We are joined by our good friend Joe Stark from Starkcast.

For Good Pop Bad Pop in Movies this week we talk about how we feel about the new trailer for THE MATRIX RESURRECTIONS starring Keanu Reeves. MALIGNANT from James Wan is in theaters and on HBO Max. Did this horror movie live up to the hype? Netflix dropped the action revenge movie KATE this week starring Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Woody Harrelson. We all talk about the new Mortal Kombat animated movie MORTAL KOMBAT LEGENDS: BATTLE OF THE REALMS. Does it live up to Scorpions Revenge? Joe and Brian talk about THE ALPINIST which dropped in theaters for one night last week.

In TV Brian and Joe talk about BRAND NEW CHERRY FLAVOR on NETFLIX. THE CIRCLE Season 3 has dropped on Netflix as well as the new metal art competition show METAL SHOP MASTERS. We all watched SUPERSTAR JOHN RITTER on ABC/Hulu. FROGGER from Peacock hopped onto the service and I feel gross that I just used the word “hopped” in that sentence. It’s so gross. It’s not funny or cute. Anyway, did we like a competition game show that’s based on an 80’s video game where no one is playing a video game? And we discuss what we’ve seen so far of THE CIRCLE Season 3.

In News Y: THE LAST MAN showrunner Eliza Clark reveals how many seasons of the show she’d like to see.

In Marvel News we talk about SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME rumors, when does ETERNALS take place and more.
