    Show notes

    Wildwood is Laika’s biggest swing yet, a PG-13 stop-motion fantasy epic that took 16 years to make. A girl from Portland follows a kidnapped baby into a hidden magical forest, and it’s one of the most stunning animated movies in years.

    We’re breaking down Travis Knight’s craft, the handmade world of the Wildwood, and the darker tone that sets it apart from other Laika films. We’re also getting into the critics’ split on the story and the CGI.

  5. Dead Silence Review | How Did James Wan Make This?

  17. The Superlatvies: "The Cabin in the Woods"

    Show notes

    The Cabin in the Woods is the most famous meta horror movie ever made, and we rewatched it to see if it still holds up. Five friends, one cabin, and a genre-bending twist that's still dividing fans. And we're giving it a watch on The Superlatives!

    We're breaking down Drew Goddard's slasher tropes, the Hemsworth and Kranz performances, and that wild third act. It's either a brilliant deconstruction or too clever for its own good.

  18. Last Seen Episode 5 Breakdown, Review, and Finale Predictions | Should We Feel Bad For Henry?

    Show notes

    "The Prophet" is the flashback episode, and it finally tells us why Maggie ended up in Henry's house. It also makes Henry a much more complicated character than he's been so far. We're breaking down the backstory, and then asking the question the whole internet is arguing about: does any of this earn him sympathy?

    We're covering Henry and Jenna's past at Donald's father's religious commune, how Jenna ended up staying there and falling for Henry, and the heartbreaking loss of their real daughter Sarah that sets everything in motion. We're also getting into the present-day chaos, with Jenna bleeding out in a shot-up car, Sarah making her own choices, and Ian waking up in the hospital to Debbie blaming him for Bill's death before he grabs Donald at gunpoint to find where Henry is headed.

    Then we're making our predictions for the finale. Who survives, does Ian get Maggie back, and what happens to Henry and Jenna? Let us know in the comments if you feel bad for Henry or if the backstory just makes it worse.

  20. The Superlatives: "The Other Guys" Review + Breakdown | The Best Buddy Cop Movie Ever?

    Season 1, Episode 4

    Show notes

    We went back and rewatched The Other Guys, the Adam McKay buddy cop comedy starring Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg as two deskbound detectives who stumble into the case of their careers while the real hotshot cops get all the glory. Over fifteen years later, we're checking if this one still holds up as one of the funniest entries in the genre.

    We're breaking down Ferrell's Allen Gamble and his bizarre, hilarious backstory reveals, Wahlberg's fantastic straight-man rage as Terry Hoitz, and why their mismatched chemistry might be one of the most underrated comedic pairings of the 2010s. We're also getting into the Samuel L. Jackson and Dwayne Johnson cold open, the surprisingly sharp white-collar crime plot buried under all the absurdity, and that now-famous end credits sequence about corporate fraud that nobody saw coming in a comedy like this.

    Is this genuinely the best buddy cop comedy ever made, or does it live in the shadow of movies like 21 Jump Street and Rush Hour? We're giving our honest ranking. Let us know your pick for the best buddy cop movie of all time in the comments.
