Where my fellow Jerry Maguire fans at?!

ICYMI: @crookedtable.bsky.social and I kicked off Season Four of Back To Bluey with a deep-dive discussion of "Bluey's Big Play," in which we marvel at the way the show's presentation appeals to young *and* old fans of BLUEY alike. On Libsyn, Spotify, GoodPods, or your podcatcher of choice! Links👇:

NOW! @crookedtable.bsky.social and I open our 4th season of Back To Bluey with a deep-dive discussion of "Bluey's Big Play: The Stage Show." How does this 50-minute production adapt the visual style, signature pacing, and thematic impact of the animated series? Click the link below and find out! 👇

Podcast prep!

Totally missed that this went live. It was my great honor to join @bingemovies.bsky.social for this final, apocalyptic ranking episode of Binge Movies.

I was joined by guest Robert Yaniz Jr of @crookedtable.bsky.social to talk about a movie whose director's latest is being nominated for a few Oscars this year.

Can you guess the name of the director and the movie we are discussing?

Same. I didn’t hate it.

The wide U.S. release of Walt Disney's PINOCCHIO happened today in 1940.

Criterion releasing K Pop Demon Hunters is a net benefit for everyone - those who like the movie will get a really good home release of it, those who don’t care about the movie will benefit from Criterion having a certified money maker that they can use to help fund more obscure/niche releases

It’s time to discuss Persepolis with Stew and @crookedtable.bsky.social!

There is no way Home Alone holds up if the mom role is one dimensional. O'Hara brought the emotional weight and urgency that magnified the danger Kevin was in. Without that counter-balance, it's a fun but hollow Looney Tunes cartoon instead a holiday classic.

Podcast prep! It's been a minute.

Do any of you know someone at Disney or ABC? Because I have a very important suggestion to make.
The Oscars are broadcast on ABC, owned by Disney.
The Muppets are also owned by Disney.
We need Miss Piggy on the Oscars red carpet.

‘SINNERS’ has broken history as the MOST-NOMINATED FILM OF ALL TIME at the Oscars with 16 nominations

Delroy Lindo!!

Happy, happy birthday to my dear friend and Back To Bluey partner, @dwlundberg.bsky.social! So grateful for your thoughtful insight, generous heart, and our cherished friendship. Hoping you have a “warm hug” of a special day!

I saw 28 Days Later once decades ago.
I've seen (part of?) 28 Weeks Later.
I have not seen 28 Years Later.
Zombies are definitely not my thing.

HOWEVER, I've heard the positive buzz around The Bone Temple and am curious... Is it worth watching, even given my (lack of) history with this franchise?

The Monster Squad will return in AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY

New Back To Bluey for a New Year! In our latest episode, @crookedtable.bsky.social and I return for another Minisode Roundup. This time, we marvel at the elegant (and wordless) parallel stories of "Alongside," then give the littlest Heeler the standing ovation she deserves in "Drums." Link below!👇
