Pete leads Tommy and Kyle on a journey of discovery... adventure... and learning a bit about themselves in the doing.
But first, we talk about Bones And All, Monster High the Movie and its odd similarity to Netflix's entry into the space, a quick review of Darby and the Dead, and toss in a dash of "what would you do if you were Henry Cavill today?"
From there, Skinamarink is in the trailer rundown, so look out for that. The Diabolical is on deck for games, and we have a Very Important Announcement about the future of this very show.

But first, Krissy watched Spirited! on Apple TV+! Pete's still crowing about The Peripheral on Amazon Primeand Rings of Power on Amazon Prime. Kyle amplifies The Council of Elrond Podcast as a way to listen to Brits help us remember what's going on as we watch fake things throwing things at fake things.

Mandy Kaplan leads her march across the alps with Tommy Metz and Krissy Lenz on board. This week: trailers, a Game of Logs, and a list of films designed to give you hope.
First up, Tommy's finally watching Reboot on Hulu and likes it. Krissy is watching The Rock because you just can't get enough of the Rock as a tourist attraction. Mandy's in on White Lotus Season 2 on HBO, but is kind of distracted by The Vow, on HBO as well, also with a season 2.

Pete Wright heads up Kyle Olson and Tommy Metz for a chat through Saturdays and Matinées, the works of William Gibson, kitcheny and mystery trailers, The Diabolical, and lists of movies we'll never watch again.
Andor is over and Kyle has things to say, like, we're still trying to convince Tommy that he should actually watch it. In the mean time, Tommy has been watching Barbarian and is both completely convinced that the script was unsalable to studios while also being a fantastic finished film. Pete waxes lovingly about William Gibson's work as a lead-in to a conversation on Amazon's adaptation of The Peripheral, which is, so far, so good.
We've got a game of The Diabolical that has the gents doing... accents(?). But first up, Trailers!

Tommy Metz III leads Krissy Lenz and Mandy Kaplan on a matinée tour of movies and television magic that ends in a recast-a-thon of movies that definitely should be musicals.
But first, the watchlist. Tommy and Mandy finished The Patient and loved it. Smile is middling fare according to Krissy, but she's an island on who's seen it on the panel just yet. We have a significant detour around Don't Worry Darling which you might even classify as "gossip corner."
Mandy’s Trailer: The White Lotus — Season 2Tommy’s Trailer: Next ExitKrissy’s Trailer: Poker Face
THE LIST!This week the team brings a list of movies which really and truly should be adapted into musicals. But they have a twist! They were challenged not only to bring the movie, but to bring a principal cast member and the first song. Which, of course, they overdid. It's awesome.

The indomitable Kyle Olson leads Tommy Metz III and Pete Wright for a tour through franchises, trailers with numbers after them (mostly), and a game of pitches that leaves them in stitches!
But first, Tommy's new short Static is in full festival mode, so he isn't watching much other than other people's horrors. Pete's watching Andor pretty hard because it's fantastic, and we haven't talked enough about it on this show week to week.It was a big franchise trailer week, though, so in light of Creed and John Wick successors, Kyle picked an indie doc. Not so on brand after all?
Kyle’s Trailer: ClaydreamTommy’s Trailer: John Wick Chapter 4Pete’s Trailer: Creed III
THE LIST!This week's list brings you movies that are part of multiple-adaptation francises. Was it a book, opera, comic, or something else before it was a movie? Then it's fair game for this list.

Mandy Kaplan leads a merry band of Krissy Lenz and Pete Wright on a journey through holiday musical magic, a game of titles, and a list of iconic movie character names!
We start with an ode to Angela Lansbury, whose death this week marks the end of an era for a Dame expert at pivoting her career with the times.Mandy's still hate-watching stuff, but mostly it's just all football. Krissy checked out Hocus Pocus 2 and as a result, is now calling for a full Midleraissance. Pete is watching sexist and homophobic car TV from 20 years ago but MOSTLY wants to talk about the meta finale of season 1 of She-Hulk, which Mandy and Krissy have not seen. It's pretty one-sided, but hopefully, you listen and want to check it out yourself because it's pretty fun.
Mandy’s Trailer: SpiritedKrissy’s Trailer: Violent NightPete’s Trailer: Roald Dahl's Matilda the Musical
THE LIST!
This week's list is a celebration of great character names. What makes a name stick in your head? What makes it something you repeat? What makes the character enter the public consciousness?

Andy Nelson steps in as pinch hitter leading Ocean Murff and Krissy Lenz in this week's Saturday Matinée.
Now, I'm going to be honest with you here. I'm your omniscient narrator but I've been on vacation. I didn't edit this show and it's just been handed to me and needs to be published. They haven't given me time to listen to it so I have absolutely no idea what they talked about. Therefore, I'm going to take a stab at it and see what has come out of this episode.
I bet Ocean brings up Andor on Disney+. The first three episodes have dropped and they had time to watch them. If they haven't, that's entertainment podcasting malpractice. Andy watched the Wedding Banquet and gave it four stars. I bet he brings that up. But if he doesn't bring up his 1-star review of Miami Connection, I'm calling his mother. I bet Krissy goes deeply against her brand and praises a recent viewing of Pearl.
Krissy’s Trailer: Luckiest Girl AliveAndy’s Trailer: Hellraiser (2022)Ocean’s Trailer: Babylon
All that out of the way, here are the trailers.THE LIST!
As for the list this week, the gang was charged with coming up with a list of films featuring: A Great Performance from Unexpected Performers... you know, performances just like Ken Jeong in The Hangover isn't.

Ocean Murff leads Kyle Olson and Tommy Metz on a ride through matinée morning moviedom with new trailers, a game of villains, and a list of movies to dine by!
Kyle’s Trailer: Wendell & WildTommy’s Trailer: TárOcean’s Trailer: Amsterdam
But they start with the watchlist. On deck: Scooby Do, believe it or not. Turns out, there's more to it than meets the eye. Tommy watched Elvis, which is apparently Luhrmantastic, but he's really looking forward to Barbarian. Ocean has words about Day Shift, the vampire union movie. And they have some pretty darned good things to say about the latest season of The Umbrella Academy.
THE LIST!
This week's list is a celebration of movies to dine by. What's that mean? Great question. Mostly it's movies that make us hungry. Except Hook. They just eat paste in that movie.Kyle’s List

A fine Saturday to you all! This week on the show Pete Wright leads Kyle Olson and Ray DeLancey on a journey of grown ups liking kid things.
First things first, we're talking about two Star Trek properties: Star Trek Lower Decks, and Star Trek Prodigy. Sure, both are cartoons. Both are just plum wacky. But both also offer fuel to the overall Star Trek universe and with reports that ships and characters from at least one of these shows is making way for the next season of Strange New Worlds, we're eager to see what comes next.
Sandman is aging well on us. House of the Dragon is aging well for us so far. Does that bode well for this weekend's launch of Rings of Power over on Amazon?
The new trailer for Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey dropped this week leading to a whole lot of hand-wringing over how these beloved characters are being used now that they've fallen into the public domain.

TrailersTHE LIST!
Technically, this week's list is "Movies that are for kids that you secretly like as an adult". But we reject the premise. As three people who just spent fifteen minutes talking about how great Star Trek cartoons are, we're proudly in the pro-kids-movies camp. So we give you a selection of movies that we miss from the kids and family oeuvre.

Mandy Kaplan leads Krissy Lenz and Tommy Metz in a tour of Wrexham and a glorious celebration of CatDaddies, plus a list of movies in schools!
Along the way, we have a bit of catch-up on Sandman, Blackbird, ... wait, who cares about all that? Krissy is watching Original Recipe Law & Order! Ok, Tommy made good on his trailer pick last week by heading out to the theater and seeing Fall, which was fair and terrifying. Mandy watched She-Hulk. Any bets on what she thought? Quick... before you listen. Post it Discord. We're watching you so don't cheat. Plus, Bad Sisters because sisters gotta fight.

Pete Wright, Mandy Kaplan, and Tommy Metz are back with big screen and small screen takes, a blockbuster round of the movie game, terrorizing trailers, and a list of much-panned movies that we love anyway!
First things first, Tommy gives permission to love The Sandman. Mandy does the same for Blackbird and The Most Hated Man on the Internet. Pete has lower praise for Surface but saves his powder for Luck, a film that tries so hard to be kind it makes you hate yourself for not loving it.

TrailersTHE LIST!
This week’s list is a parade of misguided movie disdain. We were handed the task of uncovering movies that are widely panned but that we like anyway, and Mandy and Pete delivered. Tommy... was present, but struggled to reach the very bottom of the barrel.

Tommy Metz leads an all-star cast of Krissy Lenz and Rob(by) Kubasko(z) in this SatMat Season Finale with trailers, games, and a list of movies you're too young to watch.
But first, Krissy misunderstood the assignment and saw the wrong Elvis movie. Don't worry, though, the mix-up leads to hijinx and inspiration for not one, but two new spin-off podcasts involving pineapples and exhaustive rewatches of other wrong Elvis movies.
Rob is healing, and used the time to catch up on a lot. Rob's Homework: Red Eye, No Time to Die, Stranger Things, Strange New Worlds, Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Along the way, Netflix is in trouble. They just fired another 300 people. Still, the stream screen is performing just fine, as more people are watching Stranger Things and Obi-Wan than Top Gun Maverick or Jurassic World. Netflix has responded by piloting their password-sharing crackdown. "Excellent" timing.
Meanwhile, tv+ dropped some serious cash on their Ted Lasso-esque plan to own all MLS with a ten-year ownership deal of MLS distribution with no black-outs. Says Eddy Cue (that's Apple's SVP of Services), “For the first time in the history of sports, fans will be able to access everything from a major professional sports league in one place.” In the history of sports, Mr. Cue? Wethinks you are a touch too proud. But still, cool for football hooligans.

Pete, Kyle, and Tommy are in the Saturday Matinée this week for vamps on planes, VHS nostalgia, and a watchlist of movies about fans and fanatics!
Pete and Kyle did their homework and have a report on their watch of Blood Red Sky. Even more, Kyle watched Always and reports it might have been better had there been vampires on those planes. Tommy's been Benjamin Buttoning his rewatch of Mission: Impossible and just wrapped up his watch of "Under the Banner of Heaven."
We have no game this week, and in its stead, Kyle brings a walk down memory lane with a grueling inquiry into our film history.
