For Episode 486, I am joined by Josh Parham and Ema Sasic as we look ahead to April 9th, and the announcement of the lineup for the 79th Cannes Film Festival, and discuss which films we think will be announced for this year’s festival. For this week’s poll question, for the release of Steven Soderbergh’s newest film “The Christophers,” we’re asking everyone: “Which Is Your Favorite Ian McKellen Performance?” We also reveal the winner of last week’s poll asking “Which Has Been Your Favorite Film Of Q1 2026?”, share our reactions to the trailers for “Backrooms,” “Deep Water,” answer your fan-submitted questions, and more! Thank you all for listening, subscribing, and supporting us. We hope you enjoy!
