Bonus: The end of 'Atlanta'

Streamed & Screened: Movie and TV Reviews and Interviews ·

2022/11/15

For this bonus episode we've got Jared McNett back onboard to spend some time digesting the series finale of 'Atlanta.' Created by Donald Glover and premiering on FX in 2016, just a month before his song 'Redbone' hit the charts, 'Atlanta' started off as a show about a struggling rapper and their rise-and-grind manager. The episodes and seasons that followed stretched, distorted and occasionally even outright neglected that basic premise, with Glover and his creative partners

This week we have an interview with "Yellowstone" actors Luke Grimes and Kelsey Asbille, who play Kayce and Monica Dutton respectively, and Bruce Miller gets some great insights from them about the future of their characters and the rest of the Dutton family. "Yellowstone" season 5 premieres Sunday Nov. 13 on the Paramount Network. We also dig out claws into some questions about Marvel's new "Black Panther" film, "Wakanda Forever," specifically whether or not we think it could

We spent a lot of time talking on the last episode about documentaries, and you should definitely go check that out if you missed it, especially to catch the interview with Good Night Oppy director Ryan White. For the bonus episode we're sticking to the theme and jumping two years back in time, back when the show had a top-five format and went by a different name, to revisit our episode that was all about mockumentaries.

This week we're highlighting an interview Bruce Miller did with Ryan White, the director of Good Night Oppy. The film, which documents NASA's Mars rover Opportunity, is in theaters now and will land on Amazon Prime on November 23rd. It's an unexpectedly moving movie that Bruce has short-listed for his Oscar pool, and we thought we'd take the opportunity to hash out some of the other great documentaries this year, what it is that makes a great non-fiction film or series, and

Unpacking Netflix's creepy 'Cabinet of Curiosities'...

2022/10/28

Because it's the season for scary things, we can't get enough horror films in our lives. Thankfully, Netflix is here for us all with 'Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities.' An anthology series in the same vein as 'Alfred Hitchcock Presents,' they've been dropping two "episodes" a day since Tuesday. I say "episodes" because they're basically creepy cinematic novellas, each one helmed by a modern horror legend and featuring a cast-list loaded top to bottom with great

Also we've got an interview with Tony Hale about the brand new season of "The Mysterious Benedict Society" which premieres this week on Disney+.

There's a new Halloween sequel out, Halloween Kills, that wraps up the trilogy of Michael Myers movies directed by David Gordon Green (Pineapple Express) and we figured we'd use that as the launching pad to talk about all the scary Halloween horror tropes that irk us to no end and recommend some examples of the genre, both new and old, that subvert expectations.

Despite the admittedly bad press surrounding Amsterdam, its release marks something of a beginning to the Hollywood Awards Season that will run from now until the end of the year. Studios will be dropping the bulk of their prestige films in the coming months, so we thought it was a great time to start a list of films we think are in the running to be nominated for the top Oscar category. The vast majority of these movies haven't come out yet, but between film festival buzz,

And the only cure ... is to make a list of the TV show prequels we wanna see!
