Watching "Pam & Tommy" for our Breakfast All Day Patreon made us realize we'd never seen "Barb Wire," the 1996 sci-fi action flick that was supposed to make Pamela Anderson a mega movie star. That didn't happen, but we wanted to catch up with it anyway, so Alonso and Christy have a review for you. We also review the stylish horror film "Fresh" on Hulu. And for our midweek news drop-in, we talk "The Batman" box office, Spirit Awards, the Oscar nominees luncheon, Disney's stance on Florida's "Don't Say Gay" legislation and the trailer for the erotic thriller "Deep Water," which we'll definitely review when it comes out in a couple weeks. Thanks for joining us!
"The Batman" is finally here, and we've got a rave review on Breakfast All Day. Christy and Katie Walsh have a spoiler-free discussion of Robert Pattinson's portrayal of the Caped Crusader. Also this week, Alonso and Christy review the documentary "Lucy and Desi" and the gorgeous sci-fi drama "After Yang." In news, we talk early "Batman" box office and ticket prices, Spirit Awards, the Lakers miniseries "Winning Time" beginning on HBO and the end of both #Bendergate and The Viper Room. And over at our Patreon, we recap this week's episodes of "Pam & Tommy" and "The Gilded Age" as well as the first three episodes of "The Dropout," about Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes' fraudulent attempts to revolutionize the health care industry. Grab a green juice and join us!
We are shiny and chrome this week on Breakfast All Day for so many reasons. First, Christy and Alonso have a Tuesday news drop, including early reviews of "The Batman," Screen Actors Guild award winners, Sam Elliott trashing "The Power of the Dog," #OscarsFanFavorite and more. With "The Batman" opening this week, we ponder that age-old question: Who's the best Batman? And our good friend Kyle Buchanan of The New York Times joins us to discuss his new book, "Blood, Sweat & Chrome: The Wild and True Story of Mad Max: Fury Road." It's a juicy, breezy oral history of this famously difficult shoot, which resulted in a cinematic masterpiece. Crank up the volume and ride to Valhalla with us!
The delightful Dave White (The Wrap, Linoleum Knife) fills in for his husband, Alonso, this week on Breakfast All Day. And while we've thrown a truly random cross-section of movies his way, the longtime critic is naturally able to speak about them all insightfully. We review the musical "Cyrano" starring Peter Dinklage, "Tyler Perry's A Madea Homecoming" because Dave is a Madea aficionado, and the Foo Fighters' horror comedy "Studio 666." In news, we talk Oscars, SAG Awards, that legendary Spider-Man meme, AnnaLynne McCord's Putin poem, the late Sally Kellerman and more. And over at our Patreon, Alonso and Christy recap this week's episodes of "Pam & Tommy" on Hulu and "The Gilded Age" on HBO. Join Christy and the husbands for all this podcast goodness!
It's 2s-day — that is, 2/22/22 on a Tuesday — so we had to do a midweek drop-in on Breakfast All Day. Christy and Alonso have news updates, including "Uncharted" box office, "The Godfather" re-release for its 50th anniversary, James Gunn and Jennifer Holland getting engaged, our friend Kyle Buchanan's exciting new "Mad Max: Fury Road" book and more. With "The Batman" coming out next week, we take a closer look at Robert Pattinson's best performances, and the way he's used his "Twilight" clout to work with daring auteurs like David Cronenberg and Claire Denis. And we do a spoilery breakdown of that brilliant but subtle twist at the end of "The Power of the Dog," which has understandably caused some confusion. Let us know what you think of all of this, and thanks for joining us!
Tom Holland and Mark Wahlberg are hunting for hidden treasure, and we're right on their tails this week on Breakfast All Day. The brilliant Katie Walsh returns to help Christy review "Uncharted," the long-awaited film version of the popular video game series. Alonso and Christy also review "Dog," a buddy road trip comedy starring Channing Tatum and … a dog. In news, we discuss plans for "Stranger Things" seasons 4 and 5, "Peacemaker" season 2, Francis Ford Coppola's GQ magazine article, an update in the fatal Halyna Hutchins shooting, Oscar vaccine plans, and Aaron Rodgers and Shailene Woodley calling it quits. And we've got a ton of great stuff for you over at our Patreon: a recap of the "Peacemaker" season finale and new episodes of "Pam & Tommy" and "The Gilded Age," plus a February Off the Menu review of Sidney Poitier's "A Warm December." Thanks so much for hanging out with us, and enjoy the weekend.
Time is a flat circle, which means you get a Breakfast All Day episode on a Tuesday. We're trying some new things lately, including mixing in mid-week news, reviews and DVD recommendations. Christy and Alonso catch up with Steven Soderbergh's high-tech thriller "Kimi," which is streaming on HBO Max, and we have some DVD recommendations for you including "Eternals" and a 4K of "Looper." And in news, we discuss the Oscars announcing they'll recognize a "most-popular" movie viewers can vote on, Super Bowl ads, Bob Saget conspiracy theories, the death of Ivan Reitman at 75 and more. Be sure to come back on Friday when we'll have reviews of "Uncharted" and "Dog," plus all our TV recaps on our Patreon. Let us know what you'd like to see more or less of, and thanks as always for joining us.
It's Valentine's Day Weekend AND Super Bowl Weekend, and we've got something for whatever you're into on Breakfast All Day. Katie Walsh is back to join Christy for a review of Kenneth Branagh's star-studded (and troubled) version of "Death on the Nile." And Alonso and Christy review a couple of rom-coms: Jennifer Lopez and Owen Wilson in "Marry Me" and Jenny Slate and Charlie Day in "I Want You Back." In news, we talk Oscar and Razzie nominations, the Super Bowl, the "Jurassic World: Dominion" trailer, the future of "Futurama" and #Bendergate, Steven Soderbergh, Brene Brown, Leslie Jones and more. And over at our Patreon, we have a ridiculous amount of TV to recap: "The Book of Boba Fett" finale, plus new episodes of "Peacemaker," "Pam & Tommy" and "The Gilded Age." Buy yourself some chocolate whether you're in love or not, and thanks for hanging out with us.
It's Hollywood's biggest morning — the 2022 Oscar nominations — so we had to post a special Tuesday episode to cover all the highs, lows, surprises and disappointments. Our great friend, Los Angeles Times awards expert Glenn Whipp, joins us to share his perspective. "The Power of the Dog" leads all nominees with 12, followed by "Dune" with 10. What were you happy to see get nominated? What do you hope will win? Let us know. (Also, quick correction, "Licorice Pizza" is NOT streaming yet. Apologies.) Christy and Alonso also have a timely segment on new DVD releases, including three films that got multiple nominations today: "Belfast," "King Richard" and "Encanto." We don't talk about Bruno, but we do talk about movies, and we're happy to have you join us.
Hi, we're Breakfast All Day, and this is … a new episode of our podcast. This week, our dear friend Katie Walsh joins Christy to review the panoply of pain that is "Jackass Forever." We also talk about the disaster epic "Moonfall," which is extremely stupid, and yet, not stupid enough. In news, Alonso and Christy discuss BAFTA nominations, "Knives Out 2," the Spotify exodus, Spike Lee's documentary series on Colin Kaepernick, Whoopi Goldberg, Rudy Giuliani, Howard Hesseman, and the Wordle guy selling his game to the NY Times for low seven figures. And over at our Patreon, we have a mind-blowing array of recaps: "The Book of Boba Fett," "Peacemaker," "The Gilded Age," and the first three episodes of "Pam & Tommy." Thanks as always for joining us!
