478 – Kinds of Kindness, Trigger Warning, The Bikeriders Jun 28, 2024
Show notes

This week, Da7e and David kick off the podcast trying to describe Yorgos Lanthimos newest Emma Stone movie (now with Jesse Plemons!), Kinds of Kindness, in theaters this weekend. Then, Patches and David try to decide just how bad Jessica Alba and Trigger Warning are, before Katey and Dave jump back into the fray to talk about The Bikeriders and good times at the movies.

477 – Scavenger’s Reign, New Zelda Game Announced!, Inside Out 2 Jun 21, 2024
Show notes

This week, David is back and he’s taken up the cause of the animated series Scavengers Reign, so he and Patches make the case why this show should get a second life on Netflix after being cancelled by Max. There’s a new Legend of Zelda game called Echoes of Wisdom coming out in September! Are Katey’s kids, Patches, and Da7e ready for the first Zelda-lead installment? Finally, everyone saw Inside Out 2 and some hosts liked it more than others.

476 – Movie Business Check-In, The Acolyte, Hit Man Jun 14, 2024
Show notes

This week, we lost David again as the remaining co-hosts dive into some new business developments around Hollywood. Sony has bought the Alamo Drafthouse theater chain (vertical integration, here we come!) and no one has bought Paramount yet – what’s happening!?! Then, Patches and Da7e try to describe what’s happening on Disney Plus with The Acolyte before Katey jumps in the fray and they all talk about Hit Man the new Richard Linklater movie that is now on Netflix – SPOILERS for Hit Man begin at 53 minutes in – go see, or stream, the movie!

475 – The Elder Millennial Canon Quell Jun 06, 2024
Show notes

What movies define our generation?

It’s another Fighting in The War Room Quarter Quell!

For this edition of a FITWR Quarter Quell, each host brings a movie they think belongs in the “Elder Millennial Canon” of films. After a brief discussion of what that could possibly mean and a clarification that each movie needs at least three “yay” votes to qualify, the hosts jump in on Bring it On, Napoleon Dynamite, Marie Antoinette, and (500) Days of Summer.

474.5 – Cannes Report, Loot Season 2, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga May 28, 2024
Show notes

This week, David is back from the Cannes Film Festival and is ready to report back to the podcast (From Megalopolis to Anora)! Also, Katey has seen Season 2 of Loot on Apple TV Plus and deemed it a worthy sitcom. Finally, all four hosts dig into Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga after this weekend’s low-grossing Memorial Day Box Office seems to say people aren’t ready to go to theaters for big R-rated blockbusters quite yet (lookout Deadpool?).

474.25 – Galactic Starcruiser, Google AI, I Saw The TV Glow May 24, 2024
Show notes

This week, Katey returns from The Ankler’s Los Angeles to re-focus Patches and Da7e in the War Room while David keeps Cannes-ing. She only has mild success as the podcast transforms a “what we’re watching” segment into one about Disney’s “Star Wars Hotel” and the 4-hour takedown video about it. Then, Patches guides us through Google’s new AI search that seems bad for everyone, especially the internet. Finally, Katey and Da7e talk I Saw The TV Glow and how it’s a pretty great movie for people of our age group.

A Fighting In The War Room Show (Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes) May 15, 2024
Show notes

This week, Patches and Da7e have been left alone again, so they invite returning guest Jordan Hoffman back onto the show for a free-form discussion about recasting Gilligan’s Island, Starcrash and torrent ethics, Unfrosted again, cereals (and hot cereals), Blue Angels and Deep Sky in IMAX, solar flares and go bags, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes (with a spoiler section!), how to stay awake in screenings, and bad things in food. Most importantly, they do not cancel the podcast.

474 – Unfrosted, Under the Bridge, The Fall Guy May 09, 2024
Show notes

This week, all four hosts are together (pre-Cannes) to fight in the war room. First, Patches and David dig into opposing views of Jerry Seinfeld’s Unfrosted on Netflix. Then, Katey recommends Hulu’s Under the Bridge series before Da7e joins in on the conversation so everyone can discuss The Fall Guy and why the box office for it last weekend was so lackluster. Are summer movies not back?

473 – Fallout on TV, Phantom Menace is back!, Challengers May 02, 2024
Show notes

This week, Katey and David are both attempting to watch Amazon Studios Fallout adaptation and Matt Patches, who has seen the whole thing, tries to manage their expectations. Then, Da7e is going back to the theaters to watch Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace this weekend and suggests some reasons why. Finally, everyone saw Challengers (in theaters now!) and gets together for a discussion about the movie that doesn’t spoil the ending.

472 – Netflix’s Blockbuster Problem, Bluey’s “Surprise,” Shogun Apr 26, 2024
Show notes

This week, in a slightly later podcast than usual, the whole gang gets together in the War Room. First, Patches and David both saw Rebel Moon: The Scargiver (that’s part two of Rebel Moon) and neither liked it very much, which has us all debating what Netflix’s blockbuster movie strategy is. Then, Bluey had a surprise episode (not so surprising if you listened to Da7e last week) and it’s sparked a very silly online debate amongst Bluey adults. Finally, Katey, Da7e, and David watched all of Shogun (Fox on Hulu on Disney Plus) and touch base to sing its praises with some mild-spoilers peppered in. Watch Shogun!
