Episode 270. To honor the 50th anniversary of hip-hop this year, we watched the 2015 biopic Straight Outta Compton, about the founding of N.W.A. Ice Cube, Dr. Dre, Eazy-E, DJ Yella, and MC Ren form the prolific rap group against the backdrop of their southern California town stricken by gang violence, hoping to bring catharsis to their community and control their own futures. The group faces censorship threats, police aggression, trickery from their manager, death, disease, and other tragedies, but their friendship and creative passion survives to this day.

We discuss adding caffeine to unexpected foods, seeing only the third Equalizer movie, Bob Chili, the origins of the word "tidbit," how much you have to know about the Star Wars cartoons before watching Ahsoka, a ship full of screams, how long a short film can be while still being a short, and if you can do a monologue at a karaoke night.

Episode 269. We watched the self-contained first season of the anthology crime series True Detective from 2014. Detectives Cohle and Hart investigate a seemingly occult killing of a young woman in rural Louisiana in 1995, chasing down myriad leads and eventually taking down the killer -- or so they think. In 2012, after new clues are brought to light and the two retired detectives are grilled by newer members of the force, the strained partnership reunites for a final showdown with the murderer who has quietly fed off this town for decades.

He grew up traveling the world to investigate the supernatural and protect the innocent from the threats whispered about in folktales and ghost stories.

Episode 267. We listened to season one of the audio fiction podcast Mockery Manor, from Long Cat Media. It's 1989 in England, and teenager JJ has a summer job at Mockery Manor theme park. She's joining her twin sister Bette, who's already settled into her job there and has developed her own alliances and romances with the fellow young workers, which doesn't help the tense relationship between these sisters. JJ feels even more isolated when she discovers possible missing persons and murder cases at the park, which could be connected to her own family.

Episode 266. Extra, extra! It's a Review Show first! We're covering a filmed production of a live stage performance with Newsies: The Broadway Musical on Disney+. It's 1899, and gangs of young boys are living on the streets and selling newspapers with the hopes of moving up in the world. When the publisher suddenly raises the prices the boys have to pay to get their papers, and refuses to compensate them for what they can't sell, the kids unionize and strike. With the help of a rebellious girl reporter, they get all the other young workers of the city on their side and make a stand for kids everywhere.

Her "retirement" is to be reincarnated as a human, and she arranges to live in the same city at the same time as the future inventor of immortality, with plans to kill him and get her old job back. She finds herself in a loop of accidental deaths and reincarnations across the years, encountering the inventor at different stages in his life, dealing with deaths of loved ones, and she learns what death and life truly mean to humans.

Episode 260. We celebrated our second annual "National Treasure Weekend" watching another Nicolas Cage movie, 2002's Adaptation. Charlie Kaufman is hired to adapt Susan Orlean's nonfiction book The Orchid Thief into a Hollywood screenplay. As he deals with the book's lack of easy narrative structure, his loneliness and low self confidence, and his identical twin brother Donald pestering him in his own journey to become a screenwriter, Charlie spirals into distraction. The movie is everything the screenplay within the movie is: layers of flashbacks, fantasies, and the natural history of the world itself circling around each other in a search for connection.

Episode 240. Friend of the show Jacq joins us again for a fantasy draft of our ideal dads! All our own original dads remain, and we are drafting new people joining our lives in some sort of paternal role. They don't have to be real, they don't have to be dads, they don't have to be men, they don't have to be human, they just have to project dad-like energy. Which characters played by famously fatherly actors made the list? How many spooky dads show up to party? How much do you remember about mid-2000s pop culture?

A teenage Peter Parker, still new to being a superhero, struggles to balance his crime-fighting with going to high school, taking pictures for the Daily Bugle, being there for Aunt May, spending time with his friends, and dating, or even figuring who to date.

Episode 235. We discuss Kyle's dad discovering the "new" "trend" of dad jokes and wonder if you can trace any evolution of pop culture comedy influence across the many years of America's Funniest Home Videos. Beetlejuice 2 ("Beetletwoce") and a new season of Good Omens are on the way. We ask if there any real consequences if you don't watch an acclaimed TV show? Are you the one breaking bad if you never see Breaking Bad? M3GAN makes Melissa question if she grew out of toys too early as a child, and Kyle shows off his Free Comic Book Day haul and the features of the new Viz Manga app. Plus, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 but it's a scented candle!

Episode 252. We're starting another ongoing monthly series, talking about season one of the 2016 sitcom The Good Place, and we'll be back to discuss season two next month! Eleanor wakes up to discover that she's dead and has been sent to the "good place," a mysterious heavenly neighborhood where she has the house of her dreams and her true soulmate. This is a reward for all of Eleanor's good deeds on earth -- except this isn't the right Eleanor, she was sent here by mistake, and she's determined to keep that secret so she doesn't get sent to the "bad place." As she tries to learn to be a better person, she realizes that she isn't the only one keeping secrets, and there may be other imposters around her.

Episode 233. Primal forces are at work when Melissa goes to a live production of Wicked. Kyle called Saul, and was the better for it. We look at the news coming out of CinemaCon, a convention where movie studios show off their upcoming projects to theater owners, including an R-rated Kraven The Hunter and a Beetlejuice sequel, henceforth known as Beetletwoce. We ask what if subpar movie universes combined their forces, what games we could put in a Whatnauts activity book, and how far Kyle should go to beat his new Duolingo enemy.

Episode 251. We return to our nostalgic favorite, the 2004 indie movie Napoleon Dynamite, to discuss why it still charms us twenty years later and ask if it has kept its cult classic status. Napoleon is a high-schooler in the small town of Preston, Idaho, trying to impress his peers, get his family to respect him, and find a date to the school dance. He deals with a delusional uncle, petty teen judgement, his best friend's run for class president, a time machine scam, and getting a steak thrown in his face.

We watched the 1993 Super Mario Bros movie, specifically the "Morton-Jankel" directors' cut with unfinished extra footage. Mario Mario and Luigi Mario are brothers, plumbers, New Yorkers. When their new friend Daisy is kidnapped by goons who take her through a mysterious portal at her paleontology dig site, they follow her, armed with nothing but their wits and wrenches. The brothers fight to rescue Daisy and take down the megalomaniacal King Koopa and his machine that can evolve dinosaurs into humans, and devolve humans back into primordial slime.

Episode 248. We watched the first season of the Netflix animated series Arcane, based in the world of League of Legends. Amidst conflict between the high-class metropolis of Piltover and its neglected and crime-ridden undercity of Zaun, sisters Vi and Powder fight to stay alive and make a difference for their community. After a mistake that costs the lives of their friends, the sisters split up and meet again years later, when Powder is now known as the unpredictable terrorist Jinx. As Piltover scientists work to develop magical hex tech to improve their city, they find that Jinx and other criminals could exploit it, leading them to question if their invention should be destroyed.

Then, the family believes that Dom has turned rouge on them, teaming up with the mysterious techno-terrorist Cipher, but Dom is only doing this to protect a special new member of the family.

We remember the late actor Lance Reddick, a gem in everything from Lost to John Wick. We also discuss the upcoming Power Rangers reunion movie Once & Always, the old lemon scent of Shazam: Fury of the Gods, bringing an entire baguette into the cinema to eat slowly over two hours, and how more movies need things for the audience to yell at the screen like in The Room or Rocky Horror.

Episode 110. The Mandalorian is back for it's third season and Kyle and Ignacio are here to give their impressions of the first half of the show. How has this season sat with you? Is it slow or meandering? Do you think the plot is strong or nonexistent? Could Bo Katan be scheming something now that she has seemingly taken up the Mandalorian creed that the descendants of Deathwatch are holding to so tightly?

Episode 246. We watched Angelyne, a five-episode limited series from Peacock dramatizing true events. A mysterious woman called Angelyne started putting up billboards for herself around Los Angeles in the early 80s, unclear about exactly what she was promoting, just that she wanted to be a star. She became a fixture of the city, driving around in the city selling her own merchandise out of the trunk of her pink Corvette. The city loved her but was puzzled by her, never knowing her real identity. Decades later, the Hollywood Reporter published an article revealing her origin, and we see how that expose came together and how Angelyne reacts to someone else trying to tell her story.

Episode 227. Melissa attempts to quantify a very specific film sub-genre, the California Drive-Around, and its cousin the New York Walk-Around. Kyle is shocked when a modern-day French crime drama suddenly flashes back to Ancient Rome. We recap the Oscars, look at some superhero movies news, and discuss crows that can solve murders BECAUSE THEY ARE A MURDER, THAT'S WHAT YOU CALL A GROUP OF CROWS, and convincing somebody that a pog is a collectable state quarter.

Episode 245. We read the 2018 comic series Shazam and the Seven Magic Lands by writer Geoff Johns. Billy Batson and his adopted siblings find that whey they transform into their superpowered alter egos and visit the Rock of Eternity, they can travel to other magical lands. While exploring worlds of infinite amusement parks, talking animals, and living video games, they find the citizens aren't welcoming to strangers from other lands. They also have the villainous Dr. Sivana and Mr. Mind on their trail, plus the antihero Black Adam seeking their powers, and Billy's biological father has finally come to make amends to his son, but might not be who he says he is.

Episode 244. We watched the 2007 legal thriller Michael Clayton, written and directed by Tony Gilroy. Michael Clayton is a "fixer" for his law firm, cleaning up messes for their prestigious clients. They're defending the manufacturer of a potentially carcinogenic pesticide when the head lawyer on that case suffers a mental breakdown, and turns against the client. Michael Clayton has to look after his friend's wellness and smooth over relations with the client, while investigating claims of evidence that could blow the case wide open, and dealing with his own personal debts that make it difficult for him to turn down any bribes to stay quiet in the face of dangerous corporate misconduct.

With Joel still hurt, Ellie has to scavenge on her own but ends up captured by a group of people unaware that the only reason they are surviving is because they are eating their own dead. Ellie's escape is nothing short of traumatizing.

Episode 225. Did you know that TV detective Perry Mason is based on a real person? He isn't! But doesn't that seem plausible? You could convince somebody of that, right? We also discuss the incredibly detailed Lost Encyclopedia and other informational treasures from DK Publishing, rewatching Yellowjackets, rowdy popcorn boys, and movies we saw in the theaters with our friends when we were teenagers just because there wasn't anything better playing.

Episode 243. We're continuing our ongoing monthly discussion on the Fast saga, covering Fast & Furious (2009), Fast Five (2011), and Fast & Furious 6 (2013). Brian reunites with the Torettos after Lettie is mysteriously murdered while trying to infiltrate a drug ring. Dom is already on the run from the law, and taking down Lettie's killer could make him a visible target to both criminals and police. Then the family hides out in Brazil, where they call upon all their past friends to help steal a bank vault belonging to the city's most powerful and dangerous crime lord, attracting the attention of federal agent Luke Hobbs. In the sixth film, Dom learns that Lettie is still alive, suffering from amnesia and working for a far more sinister group of thieves. The family joins forces to bring Lettie home, but they're putting other family members in grave danger in the process.

In this erotic crime thriller, pickpocket Sook-hee takes a job as a handmaiden to the sheltered Lady Hideko, with the secret goal to convince her to marry Count Fujiwara, a fellow criminal who has hatched this plan with Sook-hee to steal the lady's riches. While the two women develop a close relationship, the scheme proceeds and opens up a web of betrayal, deceit, and unforeseen twists.

Alice is a journalist who finds the story of the Left Right Game, an urban legend where you drive your car in a left turn, a right turn, a left, a right, on and on until you pass into another dimension. Alice joins a caravan of cars trying to go farther into this world than anyone has before, led by a friendly but mysterious veteran of the game who may be keeping secrets about the dangerous landmarks they pass on the road.

Kyle brings us new comic book adaptations coming to Prime and recaps some DC comics both approachable and impenetrable for new readers. Melissa tries to accurately but vaguely explain Knock at the Cabin and watches all the Scream movies to see people running around big houses. We also imagine a detective buddy movie where the grizzled one is young and the innocent one is old, revolutionizing the genre.

Episode 240. We read the complete three volume run of Red Sonja, from writer Gail Simone and artist Walter Geovani. Red Sonja is a legendary hero in her fantasy world, known as the devil with a sword, slaying foes for whoever will pay her in gold, meat, and alcohol. She defends a small plague-ridden town from an old friend who's been driven mad by the shared trauma they both survived, she ferries the six greatest artisans in the land to the farewell party of a dying king, and she fights against the unforeseen consequences of a wizard's curse for her to never forgive anyone as long as she lives.

Episode 239. Crack open the Coronas for our first monthly ongoing series of the year, covering the Fast & Furious saga! We watched The Fast and The Furious (2001), 2 Fast 2 Furious (2003), and The Fast and The Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006), with the next three movies coming next month. Brian O'Conner is an undercover officer infiltrating the street-racing scene in Los Angeles, trying to stop a group of mysterious drivers from stealing 2001's most precious commodity: DVD players. He bonds with the Toretto family, and struggles with choosing this bond over his mission when he finds they might be involved in the thefts. He then goes to Miami to bust another criminal boss, supported by an all new colorful team of racers. Finally, we meet high schooler Sean, who's been sent to live with his estranged father in Japan after he's busted for another street race. He's the champ where he comes from, but now he has to learn the art of drifting to defeat an opponent with dangerous yakuza ties.

Episode 238. We watched Swiss Army Man, a 2016 film by the Daniels, the directorial team behind Everything Everywhere All At Once!

Hank calls his new friend Manny, and teaches him what it means to be alive again, reminding him about love and all of life's tiny joys. Using Manny's whimsical undead powers, the two journey through the wilderness back to civilization.

Episode 237. We watched the 2011 anime series Puella Magi Madoka Magica, a deconstruction of the magical girl genre. Madoka and her friends fantasize about being magical girls, but when they meet a classmate who really has this secret identity, they learn about the dark bargain you have to make to gain that power. A cute alien creature asks you to sign a contract, granting you any wish, in exchange for your services battling evil witches. There's no way out of the contract, and you'll almost certainly become corrupted and turn into a witch yourself. But when you can have your heart's desire, and protect your community and your closest friends from danger, is the sacrifice worth it?

John Wick is a retired assassin who is reeling from the death of his wife, focusing on caring for his beloved car and the puppy that his wife adopted for him before she died. When his car is stolen and his dog is endangered, John returns to his violent past to take revenge, and everyone in the criminal underground takes notice.

Episode 31. We have been reacting to some of the latest movie and TV show trailers over on our Youtube channel. We should have been doing that a long time ago consider the name for this show, but we just never had the capacity to really do that till now. So this episode is a bit of an experiment. We have stitched together the first four trailer reaction videos we did since individually they would be too short to release as a podcast. This one has our reactions to Space Jam: A New Legacy, Black Widow, Loki, and Shang-Chi. We are going to try this a few times to see how it goes. If the plan works, we will continue to stitch them together like this. Otherwise, those reaction videos may just live primarily in video form.

We're starting another monthly series watching one show from beginning to end, discussing season one of the drama series Halt and Catch Fire, created by Christopher Cantwell and Christopher C. Rogers. It's 1983, the dawn of the home computer age. Salesman Joe MacMillian leaves IBM on bad terms and goes to the small Dallas company Cardiff Electric, determined to make them into the next big player in the PC market. His scheme pulls in an idealistic software designer who wants to push computing to the next level, and an obsessive hardware engineer who is still picking up the pieces from his last failed project. This volatile team is determined to make the PC of their dreams, if they can all agree on what that is.

We ask if the Teen Titans tower was ever an architecturally sound idea, and describe the Wandavision-style sitcom hellscapes we could live in.

She begins a whirlwind career traveling across 1960s America winning championships, still addicted to pills and confused about normal adolescent life.

Episode 139. This week we read the 1989 DC Elseworlds comic Gotham by Gaslight from Brian Augustyn and Mike Mignola, and we watched the 2018 animated movie adaptation. This is an alternate universe take on Batman where he patrols the streets of Victorian era Gotham City, protecting it from Jack the Ripper. The comic sees more of a focus on Batman as the "world's greatest detective," while the movie adds a burlesque dancer Selena Kyle concerned about the threat to herself and other women as Batman's partner in crime-stopping action. We compare and contrast both versions of this exciting standalone story!

We also recap our holidays and talk about our shiny new tech upgrades, superhero ice cream flavors, a science fiction grandma, pop culture franchises that have entirely escaped us, and Boba Fett's historic appearance in a 1978 county fair parade. We also wonder about movies stopping to give you a pop quiz and if you fail the pop quiz, you're forced to start the movie over, as many times as it takes.

Episode 138. We're kicking off 2021 with a bang watching all of Daniel Craig's James Bond movies to date -- Casino Royale, Quantum of Solace, Skyfall, and Spectre -- in anticipation of finally seeing No Time To Die this year. Bond has recently received his 007 status and his license to kill when he enters a high-stakes poker tournament to defeat a terrorist banker and falls for the treacherous treasurer Vesper Lynd. As he goes on to face a water baron, a vengeful agent from MI6's past, and a secret criminal organization pulling all these strings, he's haunted by that failed romance and other personal tragedies, and is tempted to leave the spy game behind to start a new life with Dr. Madeline Swann.

Episode 137. For our holiday special and final episode of 2020, we go out on a musical note with the new Netflix movie Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey. Jeronicus Jangle was once the best toymaker around until his apprentice stole his greatest invention and his book of blueprints. Jeronicus loses his spark for building toys and closes up shop, and becomes estranged from his family. Years later, the granddaughter he's never met comes to visit to try to lift his spirits and find someone like herself with a true passion for inventing.

Episode 136. This week we welcomed the holiday season by watching 1988's Scrooged, a contemporary retelling of A Christmas Carol. Frank Cross is a TV executive planning a massive live broadcast production of A Christmas Carol for Christmas Eve, but big business is the only thing he has going for him. He's estranged from loved ones, and his colleagues regard him as heartless. All day on the 24th, he's struggling to keep the show running as he's being haunted by spirits revealing to him the error of his ways and how he needs to change his life to find true happiness and bring it to the people around him.

Episode 135. We watched season one of the Netflix original anime series Great Pretender. Makoto Edamura considers himself the best scam artist in Japan until he's outsmarted by Laurant Thierry, a man who he thought was just a clueless tourist. Fascinated to learn his ways and eager to get his money back, Edamura follows Laurant to Los Angeles and finds himself deep in a false drug-dealing scheme that has more levels of lying that he ever could have guessed. He becomes a reluctant part of Laurant's globe-trotting criminal team, trying to survive through rigged air races in Singapore and fraudulent art auctions in London.

Episode 122. After Kyle updates us on Gundam news and Melissa praises The Queen's Gambit, it's time for part two of our Rotten Tomatoes movie predictions. Back in early February 2020, a lifetime ago, we predicted the critics' scores for 22 movies that were supposed to come out between then and now. Only 10 of them were released, but that's enough for us to declare a winner! We read the scores for this year's few precious movies and there are some truly shocking reveals. We then revisit our predictions for the movies that were moved to next year, and make new predictions for more 2021 movies. Join us again the first week of December 2021 for a look back on the year, and predictions for the cinema of 2022!

Episode 133. We watched M. Night Shyamalan's trilogy of unconventional superhero thrillers, Unbreakable (2000), Split (2017), and Glass (2019). Security guard David Dunn is the sole survivor of a massively fatal train crash who realizes he isn't just lucky, he's invulnerable, and he's always felt a duty to protect the people of Philadelphia. Art curator Elijah Price was born with terribly fragile bones, unsure of why he exists in this world, but sure that comic books have a core of truth to them and that superheroes and villains must be real. Kevin Wendell Crumb is a man with multiple identities taking over his life, fighting for control, and convinced that he contains a secret identity with beast-like strength and ferocity. What does the converging of these men mean for truth, justice, and humanity itself?

We have comic book news, a cutting-edge cheesecake, a very long battle in a very long book series, and the chill in the November air brings "Wendy's season."

Episode 132. We watched Rian Johnson's 2019 murder mystery Knives Out. A best-selling author kills himself the night of his 85th birthday party, leaving behind a family more concerned about their inheritance than they are about grieving, a nervous private nurse who may not be telling the whole truth, and a detective with a sense that this isn't just an open-and-shut suicide case. As the nurse tries to avoid the suspicion of the desperate family members, she learns that she was the one the author trusted above everyone else, and only she can be responsible for setting everything right.

When his father dies, Shizuku finds that he legally adopted his wine critic protege and wants his two sons to compete for their inheritance. In his massive wine collection, he has named "Twelve Apostles," wines that exemplify the art form, and "The Drops of God," the greatest wine he's ever tasted. Whomever can identify these wines takes the whole inheritance! Shizuku teams up with aspiring sommelier Miyabi to learn everything he can about tasting and appreciating wine, and how wine can help you bring people together and better understand your world.

Qubit has sabotaged the team's attempt to kill The Plutonian, believing that there's still a way to solve the problem without putting death on their consciences. He knows of a secret force who can capture Tony -- but can anyone keep him locked up for long? We learn Modeus's true intentions in antagonizing Tony, and why he may be trying to help the man more than hurt him. In Tony's absence, The Survivor begins his reign as the world's new most powerful superhero, troubling both enemies and allies. The world could rebuild itself, but the cost on individual lives may be too high to pay.

Episode 129. For our final Halloween episode this year, we watched a Netflix original show from India, the ghost story Typewriter. An author of horror novels died mysteriously in his mansion decades ago, and the place has remained empty since then, believed to be haunted. The author's family is moving back into the estate and they uncover an abandoned typewriter, which sets off a chain of mysterious deaths and unnerving paranormal experiences. Dark magic took place in this house, and we follow parallel investigations from the family, the local police, and a group of kids in a "ghost club," all trying to understand the past of the house's inhabitants and what malicious forces have been reawakened.

She brews spells, seduces men, and when they don't turn out to be the love she's looking for, she kills them.

When there's a murder outside his club, Lucifer gets wrapped up in the investigation, and particularly lead detective Chloe Decker.

What if the whole disaster was staged by Reed Richards' technology to make him and his team look better? Three reporters investigate the potential hoax and what it means for their city.

Artemis is a twelve-year-old genius with a scientific mind, but when his rich father is kidnapped, he has to face that the culprit is someone he would never consider… a fairy? He realizes that his father has been using folk tales to prepare him to take on the family legacy as the only human protectors of the fairy world's secrets. A rogue fairy believes that his father possesses a stolen magical artifact, and Artemis has to team up with a cast of fantastical creatures to save his father and keep both worlds safe.

We went back to the origin story of the Marvel comics universe and read The Fantastic Four: Masterworks Volume 1, a collection of the first ten issues from Stan Lee and Jack Kirby back in 1961. When scientist Reed Richards, pilot Ben Grimm, Reed's girlfriend Sue Storm and her brother Johnny take an experimental flight to space, they return changed. They're developed superpowers! Some of them find this helpful, others find it a curse, but they decide to stick together and use their abilities for good and serve New York City as its new superheroes, The Fantastic Four! They fight all kinds of madcap villains from the shape-shifting Skrull aliens to Namor the Sub-Mariner to Dr. Doom.

Episode 18. Kyle, Ignacio, and Melissa are here to discuss the new animated movie Scoob, the latest adaption of the Scooby-Doo franchise that also serves as a potential springboard to a whole Hanna-Barbera cinematic universe. Scooby and Shaggy have been best friends through everything, each mystery and haunted house and giant sandwich, but their relationship is tested when they're attacked by villain Dick Dastardly and split up from the rest of the Mystery Inc. gang. They're rescued by their hero Blue Falcon, or at least their hero's inexperienced son trying to inherit the mantle, who needs their help finding the ancient artifacts of the three skulls of Cerebus before Dastardly can get to them. Dastardly has discovered that Scooby is descended from Alexander the Great's dog, and with this bloodline and these artifacts, he can open a portal the underworld.

Episode 106. We read the first two volumes of Black Hammer, a comic by writer Jeff Lemire and artist Dean Ormston. Ten years ago, Spiral City's greatest superheroes faced off against the Anti-God in a battle to save the world, but they paid a terrible and mysterious cost to defeat their enemy. The heroes were somehow cast away to a farm in a small rural town, trapped by an energy field running along the town's borders. They have no idea where they are, what brought them there, and if Spiral City is safe, or even still exists. All they know anymore is the farm and the suspicious gossiping community that surrounds it. Will they fight to escape, or resign themselves to forever hiding their true identities as they try to live the quiet life?

Episode 105. This week we watched the whimsical family adventures Paddington and Paddington 2 from director Paul King, to learn for ourselves why they're some of the most critically acclaimed films of the 2010s. Paddington is an innocent talking bear who travels from his sheltered jungle home to London, a city he only knows through idealized family stories. The city isn't as immediately welcoming as he hoped, but he slowly charms his temporary host family, bringing them all closer to each other and closer to being their happiest selves. He wins over many of the townspeople, but still has to escape being a museum exhibit in the first movie and a prisoner framed for theft in the second. Yes! A cartoon bear goes to jail and Rotten Tomatoes says this is a 100% good movie!

But when the connection is severed, the two go on an incredible heart-wrenching journey to find each other again and meet in person for the first time.

But they're being pursued by every adult they know, plus Sam's entire scout troop, armed with the same tracking skills. This island is preparing itself for the storm of the century, figuratively and literally.

Episode 82. We're starting a new tradition on the Captain's Log! We looked at 22 major movies coming out this year, from Sonic the Hedgehog to The Eternals, and guessed the Rotten Tomatoes score. At the end of the year, we'll see whose scores were the closest, and we also made non-score predictions to throw into the game. Will the villain of the new James Bond movie turn out to be a revamped Dr. No? Is Natasha telling us the story of Black Widow from inside the realm of the soul stone? Which one of us will win the as-yet-undetermined prize (probably pizza)?

They're dealing with loss, fear, reinventing themselves for a new life, and now, magic. Keyhouse is full of mysterious keys that open portals to fantastic abilities, but the kids don't know where they came from or how they work. Why does their father's murderer want these keys? Who is the cryptic spirit down the well that calls to them about the keys? Why was their father so insistent that this house would keep them safe if it seems full of dangers?

We watched the first season of Pushing Daisies, a 2007 cult TV show created by Bryan Fuller. Ned has the power to wake the dead with a touch, and kill them again with another touch.
