    Send a text Welocme back to DMRs 5th Season - Happy New Year!  In this episode we dive into Avatar: Fire and Ash, the latest James Cameron blockbuster and one of the most talked-about sci-fi movies of the year. The story returns to Pandora as Jake Sully and Neytiri struggle to protect their family and people while a new, fire-aligned Na’vi clan rises, bringing internal conflict, shifting alliances, and moral challenges that test leadership and loyalty. We explore how the film builds on themes of family, power, and survival, and discuss performances from Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldaña, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, and Oona Chaplin as the Avatar world expands into new regions and cultures. We also break down the box office impact, including how Avatar: Fire and Ash has crossed one billion dollars worldwide and pushed the combined total of the three Avatar films beyond six billion dollars globally. The episode examines why some critics describe the film as repetitive, focusing on familiar narrative patterns, repeated emotional beats, and ongoing debates about sequel fatigue versus cinematic spectacle in modern franchise filmmaking.

On Rotten Tomatoes, it holds a 93% “Tomatometer” score, reflecting broad acclaim for its atmosphere, acting, and the way it blends horror-mystery tropes.

    Episode 130 - Predator: Badlands - A Galatic Good Time!!!

    Send a text Welcome back to DMR The newest installment in the Predator franchise, Predator: Badlands, breaks new ground by placing a Predator, or Yautja, as its central protagonist. The story follows Dek, a young, outcast Yautja on a quest to prove his worth to his warrior clan by hunting the seemingly unkillable apex predator of the treacherous, alien world of Genna, often called "The Death Planet." His perilous journey leads to an unlikely alliance with an advanced Weyland-Yutani Corporation android named Thia, whose own mission on the hostile planet went sideways. Together, the mismatched pair must navigate the lethal environment, evade Weyland-Yutani forces, and confront a terrifying creature that challenges everything Dek has been taught about the honor of the hunt, making for a thrilling sci-fi survival adventure. The film is directed by Dan Trachtenberg, who also helmed the critically acclaimed Prey. The main cast features Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi as the Predator protagonist, Dek, and Elle Fanning in the dual role of the androids Thia and Tessa. As of the latest reports, Predator: Badlands has earned over $162 million at the global box office. Critics have embraced the fresh take, awarding it a Certified Fresh 86% on Rotten Tomatoes, while audiences have given it an even higher score of 96%.

    Episode 129 - Monster The Ed Gein Story..........Wow...........Ahhhh

    Send a text Welcome back to DMR Monster: The Ed Gein Story is the third season of the Netflix anthology Monster. Charlie Hunnam takes on the chilling role of Ed Gein, the real-life murderer and grave robber, playing him with a disturbing mix of vulnerability and menace. He’s supported by Laurie Metcalf as his domineering mother, Augusta, and Tom Hollander portraying Alfred Hitchcock in a metafictional twist — tying Gein’s life to the cinematic monsters he inspired. The series was developed by Ian Brennan and overseen by Ryan Murphy, with Max Winkler directing much of the season. Hunnam has said that he felt significant pressure playing such a dark, psychologically complex figure, and described the role as emotionally taxing. Critically, the season has been met with strong backlash. Many reviewers criticize it for sensationalising Gein’s crimes rather than offering a thoughtful exploration of his psyche. Some argue that the show leans too heavily into stylised horror, fictional subplots, and shock value — distracting from any deeper commentary on mental illness or the nature of evil. There’s also concern about historical inaccuracy and how the series humanizes Gein at the expense of his real-life victims. While Hunnam’s performance is often cited as a high point, critics largely describe the overall show as morally ambivalent, unfocused, and exploitative.
