Ana de Armas and Chris Evans are impossibly beautiful individually but have zero chemistry with each other in the spy comedy "Ghosted." It's streaming now on Apple TV+, and we have a review on the latest Breakfast All Day. Then, our great friend Tim Grierson (Screen International, @TimGrierson) helps out with a review of "Chevalier," starring Kelvin Harrison Jr. as virtuoso violinist and champion fencer Joseph Bologne, the Chevalier de Saint-Georges. In news, we discuss Alec Baldwin, Victoria Alonso, the new "Fast X" trailer, the end of Netflix red envelopes and Twitter blue checks, and more. And on our Patreon, we recap "The Mandalorian" season finale and the latest episode of "Ted Lasso." Both were great! Thanks for hanging out with us.
We love doing these Ask Us Anything segments and it was even more fun answering your questions LIVE on our Breakfast All Day YouTube channel. Here's the audio of our latest conversation, which covers everything from falling asleep in the theater to first crushes to favorite horror movies. We'll be sure to do more of these, and we hope you can join us!
Just a couple of quick goodies for you on this midweek Breakfast All Day episode. Alonso and Christy review "Suzume," the latest animated film from the great Japanese writer-director Makoto Shinkai ("Your Name.," "Weathering With You"). In news, we discuss the Writers Guild of America voting nearly unanimously to strike, the debacle of the live "Love Is Blind" reunion on Netflix, Jonathan Majors, the "World of Barbie" experience, Vidiots and more. Over at our Patreon, we revisit David Lynch's 1986 noir thriller "Blue Velvet" for our April Off the Menu. And be sure to join us Wednesday, April 19 at Noon PDT on our YouTube channel for a LIVE Ask Us Anything segment. Hope to see you!
Sink your teeth into the latest episode of Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy review "Renfield," the wildly violent action comedy featuring Nicolas Cage in the role he was born to play: Count Dracula. Alonso's husband, Dave White, steps in to help with a review of the powerful indie drama "A Thousand and One," which we both loved. In news, we discuss the Cannes Film Festival lineup, HBO Max dropping the HBO, Drake Bell, Ryan Reynolds' birthday song for Rob McElhenney, and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap this week's episodes of "The Mandalorian" and "Ted Lasso." Thanks for listening!
Be sure to join us next week for a LIVE edition of Ask Us Anything! We'll be at our YouTube channel at Noon PDT on Wednesday, April 19 and we'd love to see you: https://www.youtube.com/live/sZLnsmwkRBg?feature=share
"Beau Is Afraid" is one of the most anticipated movies of the year, and we're thrilled to bring you an early Breakfast All Day review. No spoilers here as we discuss the three-hour nightmare odyssey from writer-director Ari Aster, but we'll do a more in-depth discussion after the film opens nationwide on April 21. We also catch-up with "Tetris" on Apple TV+, and Christy revisits "Everything Everywhere All at Once" one year and seven Oscars later to see if she feels differently about it. And in news, we discuss all the big Star Wars Celebration announcements, trailers for "The Mother," "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny" and "The Marvels," and more. Thanks as always for sharing some of your time with us.
We've got high and low cinema for you on the latest episode of Breakfast All Day. First, we review "The Super Mario Bros. Movie," which is not good, but being a fan of the game probably helps. Then, we discuss the latest from indie film icon Kelly Reichardt, "Showing Up," which marks her fourth collaboration with Michelle Williams. And over at our Patreon, we recap the latest episodes of "The Mandalorian" and "Ted Lasso." No news this time -- we had a weird recording schedule in order to see "Beau Is Afraid," but the good news about that is we'll have a review of Ari Aster's three-hour hellscape exploration on Tuesday. So come on back then!
So much news to catch up on from spring break on the latest Breakfast All Day. A bunch of new trailers came out today, including "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" and "Barbie." We also discuss Gwyneth Paltrow, A.O. Scott, the 10-year anniversary of Roger Ebert's death and more. Plus we have reviews of Ben Affleck's "Air," which is great, and Owen Wilson's "Paint," which is not. And over at our Patreon, we catch up with Chapter 21 of "The Mandalorian." What is even going on with this show? Thanks as always for hanging out with us.
It's spring break, so Christy's off skiing with her family, but that doesn't mean we're taking a vacation from offering you goodies here at Breakfast All Day. She and Alonso review the action comedy "Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves," which is surprisingly fun (and you don't need to play D&D to enjoy it). Also: heavy spoilers for "John Wick: Chapter 4." You've been warned! And for our latest round of Was It Great or Were You 8, Alonso has chosen the 1975 Inspector Clouseau comedy "The Return of the Pink Panther" to determine whether it truly was great, or he just loves it nostalgically. We'll return Tuesday to catch up on news and review "Air." Hope to see you then!
We're nearing the end of this seemingly endless month and we're happy to be doing it with you on Breakfast All Day. It's sort of a quiet week with "John Wick: Chapter 4" expected to dominate -- we reviewed it last week and will have a spoiler discussion for you in the coming days. But we also have a review of writer-director Zach Braff's "A Good Person," a maudlin drama about loss and redemption featuring a typically powerful Florence Pugh performance. In news, we discuss the Gwyneth Paltrow ski crash trial; the video for "Big Shark," Tommy Wiseau's insane follow-up to "The Room"; and the terrible idea of remaking "Vertigo" with Robert Downey Jr. And on our Patreon, we recap this week's episodes of "The Mandalorian" and "Ted Lasso." Thanks as always for spending some of your time with us.
We begin our latest episode of Breakfast All Day with some sad news: the death of Lance Reddick. The star of the "John Wick" franchise and "The Wire" was just 60 years old. We also discuss the dismal "Shazam! Fury of the Gods" box office, the trailer for "Joy Ride," Eva Longoria's "Flamin' Hot" movie, the cast of "Ted Lasso" at the White House and more. For reviews, we have "Moving On," a dark buddy comedy that reunites longtime friends and collaborators Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda. And over at our Patreon, we were delighted to revisit John Carney's debut feature "Once" (2007) for our March Off the Menu movie. We're singing your praises and grateful to have you here, as always.
