    Episode 120: Everything Everywhere All at Once (Audio Commentary)

    Episode 120: Everything Everywhere All at Once (Audio Commentary)

    We’ve been doing What’s New to Netflix for nine whole years, as we mentioned in our last show, so we do what we do every year! That’s right, we are doing a full-length commentary for a movie that’s on Netflix right now!
    This time it’s the wacky yet heartfelt multiverse of madness, also known as Everything Everywhere All at Once, starring Michelle Yeoh, Jamie Lee Curtis, Stephanie Hsu, Ke Huy Quan, and James Hong, from 2022, directed by Daniels. So, fire up Netflix and watch all of that silly sci-fi mayhem unfold while we also join in the fun!
    WARNING: This is not a typical episode of What’s New to Netflix. This is an audio commentary. This episode is meant to be listened to while you watch Everything Everywhere All at Once. If you try to listen to this episode and you are not watching Everything Everywhere All at Once along with us, a lot of this will not make any sense.

    Episode 119: X, The Catcher Was a Spy, Mea Culpa

    What’s New to Netflix has been a podcast for nine years now! We talk on all of the new stuff coming to Netflix in March 2024, review three movies, and even talk a bit about Dune 2 in celebration!
    For the reviews, Ti West brings us a movie where a group of aspiring filmmakers shoot an adult film in rural Texas, but not before risking life and limb in X from 2022. Next, it’s the true story of baseball player turned government spy Mo Berg, played by Paul Rudd, in The Catcher Was a Spy from 2018. And then we watch Kelly Rowland uncover the truth about an infamous painter and her duplicitous husband in Tyler Perry’s Mea Culpa from 2024.
    All of this plus what it means to be a ninja in Beverly Hills, deciphering the MonsterVerse, the problem of too many comedians, unconventional biopics, those darn Young Royals, everything you can think of becoming a competition show, and a woman turns into a chicken nugget.

    The short month of February brings some interesting titles to Netflix in 2024, and you can always count on What’s New to Netflix to inform you of all the latest and lamest stuff heading your way.
    Later, we watch some hitmen struggle to take out some survivalists and fire jumpers after starting a deadly forest fire in Taylor Sheridan’s Those Who Wish Me Dead from 2021. Then we glimpse a hyperrealistic look at life at a rundown motel in Sean Baker’s The Florida Project from 2017.

    Episode 117: May December, The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Rebel Moon: Part One - A Child of Fire

    Episode 117: May December, The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Rebel Moon: Part One - A Child of Fire

    It’s the first episode of 2024, and What’s New to Netflix celebrates the new year when we talk about our favorite and least-favorite titles that we reviewed last year! We also go over everything hitting Netflix in January, and *spoiler alert* it’s not too awesome.
    Later, we analyze the new Todd Haynes film, May December, from last month. Also, we give The Super Mario Bros. Movie a chance, but does it lean too heavily on nostalgia, or do we, when we spend most of the time speaking about the previous Mario Bros. film from 1993. And also from last year, Zack Snyder turned his would-be Star Wars movie into Rebel Moon: Part One - A Child of Fire, and it couldn’t be a more Zack Snyder film if it wanted to be.
    All of this plus Quentin Tarantino ripping off old movies, John Wick still going and going, Mamma Mia! having us wonder if Pierce Brosnan can sing, Kevin Hart getting a little serious, the ‘real world’ of the Floribama Shore, and we have started a campaign to get Netflix to #ReleasetheButtholeCut of Cats (2019)!

    Episode 116: Whiplash, Sly, The Killer (2023)

    Here’s the last episode of What’s New to Netflix for 2023, and we make it a good one as we discuss all of the new stuff coming out for the holiday season this December.
    Then, Miles Teller is a drummer at a prestigious music school. But will his abusive teacher, played by J. K. Simmons, take things too far and cost him his sanity? We find out in Damien Chazelle’s Whiplash from 2014. Next, Sylvester Stallone talks about his upbringing, his career, and his comebacks in the documentary Sly from 2023. And last, David Fincher brings us the story of a hitman who gets revenge when things get too personal in The Killer from 2023.
    All of this plus the DC Universe, ‘90s girls wearing glasses, a very particular set of skills, Hallmark Christmas movies, Bikini Kill t-shirts, influencers, Princess Diana, claymation chickens, Bradley Cooper being a Philadelphia Eagles fan, realty reality shows, Zack Snyder chat, and the complete dumbing down of Star Trek.

    Episode 115: The Golden Child, Meg 2: The Trench, Small Soldiers

    Episode 115: The Golden Child, Meg 2: The Trench, Small Soldiers

    Forget What’s New to Netflix; it’s time for What’s New to Max! We are continuing on from last month’s accidental crossover episode, reviewing three films that are new to the streaming service, Max. However, we do go over all of the new titles coming to Netflix in November 2023 at the top of the episode.
    We start our review portion of the show by checking out the underrated Eddie Murphy adventure film, The Golden Child, from 1986. Then we join up with Jason Statham and his crew as they battle megalodons and a giant octopus in Meg 2: The Trench from 2023. And afterwards, we revisit the Joe Dante action comedy Small Soldiers from 1998.
    All of this plus movies you could buy at McDonalds, Netflix puts a spin on golf, the return of The Crown, Adam Sandler is a lizard, Squid Game is now a reality, and Christmas movies where they have to save Christmas from something or there will never be a Christmas ever again!
