Then we break down the box office, discuss a bunch of blockbuster and awards season movie trailers, highlight our audience interaction with a new SixDegreesOfMMO & a fun Twitter Question, run down what we’ve been watching, and finish with our reactions to next week’s theatrical releases and 4 more big news stories about the WWE, theater, and a big Disney casting announcement. The Box Office Update finds silver linings in what Toy Story 4 and Annabelle Comes Home accomplished this week, and we also talk about AMC’s new Artisan Films. Then it’s time for Trailer Thoughts. We review previews for upcoming blockbusters like Bond 25, Hobbs & Shaw, and Charlie’s Angels, plus awards seasons possibilities like The Good Liar and The Current War. Our audience interaction segment enjoys the second week of our new awards structure, and we give some very deserving imaginary hardware out to our most creative fans this week. Then we have a lot of fun recapping our Twitter Question about a battle between possessed toys, Annabelle and Chucky. What We’re Watching runs down some intriguing re-watches like The Departed, A Bronx Tale, This Is Spinal Tap, and Always Be My Maybe. We also debut our reviews of the latest Schmoedown Spectacular as well as an awards season sleeper like The Mustang. Then we finish by asking each other if we care about 5 other big hollywood news stories including next week’s theatrical releases like Spider-Man & Midsommar, the new WWE Raw & Smackdown bosses, Netflix’s new big budget - Meryl Streep studded musical adaptation - The Prom, the Mueller Report hitting the theatrical stage, and the new Little Mermaid’s Ursula casting.
