    Interview with 'Sock It to Me: The Legend of George Schlatter' (2026) Director, Chris Coronado

    Sock It to Me details Schlatter's robust six-decade career, which revolutionized television through Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In and changed how we consume and produce comedy. It laid the groundwork for shows like Saturday Night Live and In Living Color. Schlatter’s special was unafraid to push television's boundaries, delivering bold political commentary, cutthroat satire, and a vibrantly colorful show.  Coronado joins The Rolling Tape to delve into his friendship with Schlatter, how it was to work with so many stars, his creative process throughout the making of Sock It to Me, and more.  Follow our interviewee online: Chris Coronado Follow our interview host online: Mariana Fabian Support the show Subscribe for Early Access and Video: The Rolling Tape Patreon Listen Here: Spotify Apple Podcasts All Listening Platforms Have questions?

    The Awards Tape: Best Director, Original Screenplay & Adapted Screenplay Oscar Predictions 2026-27 ft. Dean Coburn

    We're continuing our updated Oscar predictions coverage today as we break down three more major categories: Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Adapted Screenplay. Two weeks ago, we shared our updated Best Picture predictions, discussing some of the films we've already seen and others we're still eagerly anticipating. It's become a fun tradition here at The Rolling Tape to spend the months between October and January breaking down two or three Oscar categories at a time as we build toward the highly anticipated Oscar nominations announcement. As we continue to see more films throughout the season, we're gaining a clearer picture of how these races might unfold. With festivals still underway, many of our regular predictors are out of commission, so we welcome back a returning guest to the series. He made his debut back in August during our massive pre-fall festival Oscar predictions episode, where we tackled all of the above-the-line categories. He's the Benoit Blanc of Oscar sleuthing, always ready to investigate the clues, uncover the evidence, and crack the case of the Academy Awards!

    EP 212: Wildwood, Clayface & It Took 16 Years to Mold This Face Out of Clay! Plus, DCU Upcoming Project Power Rankings

    It took 16 years to mold this face out of clay! That’s factually true of Laika’s dark fantasy epic, Wildwood, and at least sort of fictionally true of DC Studios’ Clayface. Taking our month of cross-programming into weekend four, we are discussing these two movies directed by Travis Knight and James Watkins, respectively.  Wildwood is written by Chris Butler and directed by Travis Knight and follows the adventures of Prue McKeel as she sets off to the forests outside Portland to find her kidnapped brother.  Clayface is written by Mike Flanagan and Hossein Amini and directed by James Watkins following Rising Hollywood star Matt Hagen descends into a horrifying revenge-filled monster when scientific ambition strips him of his identity and humanity.  From Portland to Gotham, we’re discussing all things clay today.

    See our final draft winners here. The Summer 2026 Box Office Draft has come to a close. We kicked off the second annual edition of our draft predicting worldwide gross totals for summer releases back in May around Memorial Day, taking a deep dive into the entire summer release schedule through Labor Day.  Each of us made our predictions for the top 10 highest worldwide-grossing films of the summer and estimated how much each would earn at the box office. We also did a check-in episode in July at the halfway point of the summer. Today, we've come to check the receipts. We break down what won the summer, flopped against box office expectations, and preview what's to come in the fall and winter.

    EP 211: You Can See Everything Inside This Sperm Whale's Stomach (Whalefall & You Can See Everything)

    Wow you can see everything inside this whale’s stomach! That’s an unconfirmed quote by Austin Abrams but also the title of the third double feature in our month-long cross-programming celebration.  It’s arguably one of the busiest release weekends of the entire calendar year with no shortage of titles from Street Fighter to Sense and Sensibility to the restoration of Ken Russell’s The Devils all happening now. This week, however, we’ve opted to stare deep into the ocean blue eyes of Elizabeth Holmes and go out to sea with Austin Abrams and his daddy issues in Whalefall and You Can See Everything.  Whalefall is written and directed by Brian Duffield and follows a scuba diver who, while looking for his father's remains, is swallowed by an 80-foot, 60-ton sperm whale and has just one hour to get out before his oxygen runs out.  You Can See Everything is co-directed by Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim following Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes and her family during the thirty-four days before she's sent to prison.  Our pre-episode Patreon exclusive conversation features: Miami Vice '85 first lookGreta Gerwig's Narnia trailerGirls TV show revivalSteven Soderbergh to take over directing The Batman 2Our guest: Derrick Murray On this episode: Danny Jarabek Kam Ryan Support the show Subscribe for Early Access and Video: The Rolling Tape Patreon Listen Here: Spotify Apple Podcasts All Listening Platforms Have questions?
