For Episode 439, I am joined by Katie Johnson, Lauren LaMagna, and Will Mavity to discuss the announcement of the new rules for the Academy Awards and the additions to the 2025 Cannes Film Festival. We also reveal the winner of last week’s poll for the release of “The Accountant 2” asking, “Which Is Your Favorite Ben Affleck performance?” and ask this week’s poll question for the release of “Thunderbolts*” asking “What Is Your Favorite Movie About A Ragtag Group Of Misfits?” We also react to the trailers for “Predator: Badlands,” “I Know What You Did Last Summer,” “Heads Of State,” answer your fan-submitted questions, and more! Thank you all for listening, supporting, and subscribing. We hope you enjoy this episode, and we will see you all next week.
