    World Cup Fever + House of the Dragon returns with Season 3, but was it worth the wait? - EP 215

    After two years of waiting, HOUSE OF THE DRAGON is back with season 3!  Was it worth the wait? More to the point, was there a battle on the water?  In a sense, but more on that in the episode. This week, we return to Westeros, dragons galore.  Before we battle it out with that season premiere, however, we catch up on the latest updates to our Summer Movie Wager!  Has Toy Story 5 met our expectations? Plus, we get into something perhaps a little out of character for us… we talk sports!  Specifically the FIFA WORLD CUP ‘26! Yes, we’re here for the football (that’s right, we said football), and we discuss the tournament so far as we near the end of the group stage - and boy what a group stage!   All that and more, so sit back, relax and listen (or watch) our latest ep.  Don’t forget to follow, like and subscribe wherever you find your pods, on youtube, and on social media!  Don’t forget to leave a comment.  Stay Tuned! 00:00:00 - Intro  00:00:53 - Summer Box Office Update 00:04:45 - Fifa World Cup 00:24:39 - House of the Dragon Season 3 Episode 1 Review

    The Ultimate Steven Spielberg Ranking + Disclosure Day Review - Ep 214

    This week’s episode is packed with box office talk, blockbuster trailers, sci-fi discussion, and one of our favorite movie debates yet. We kick things off with a Summer Movie Wager, looking at the biggest winners and surprises of the season so far and discussing which films have overperformed, underperformed, and what the rest of the summer could still have in store. We also talk about the news that Spider-Man: Brand New Day was shot for ScreenX theaters, what that means for the viewing experience, and whether premium formats are becoming an even bigger part of modern moviegoing. In Trailer Talk, we react to the first looks at Shrek 5 and Spider-Man: Brand New Day, including the reveal of Hulkand what his appearance could mean for the next chapter of Spider-Man's story. We discuss our excitement levels, theories, and whether these trailers lived up to the hype. Our Feature Discussion is all about Disclosure Day. We dive into the film's themes, performances, and overall impressions, breaking down what worked, what surprised us, and where it lands among this year's releases. To wrap things up, Luis, Ed, and Miguel each reveal their Top 10 Steven Spielberg Movies of All Time. From beloved classics and blockbuster adventures to personal favorites and a few hot takes, we compare lists, defend our rankings, and celebrate one of the greatest filmmakers in cinema history. A fun episode filled with box office chatter, trailer reactions, movie reviews, and plenty of Spielberg love. 00:00 - Intro 00:11 - Podcast Introduction 01:10 - Summer Box Office Discussion 05:40 - World Cup Experience 14:16 - News Segment 01:03:46 - Top Ten Spielberg Movies Discussion
