Katey Rich and Matt Patches do their very best in the middle of the afternoon to talk about some stuff including being ready for the next Tom Cruise era (after one of them saw Mission: Impossible The Final Reckoning), when Matt first saw the final cut of The Departed, wondering if Brad Pitt can be a Tom Cruise, why movie theme parks still work and the allure of a new Back to the Future movie. They close out wondering if this summer is going to be a terrible summer for movies.

This week, everyone’s in the war room to look towards the news. First, the President of the United States got on his Truth Social media platform and announced film tariffs that will never happen, but what might actually change with this new attention towards American production? Then, Katey has news about the Golden Globes opening up a new category. Finally, everyone saw Thunderbolts* and therefore everyone on the podcast knows what the * was for. The group debates the movie (including spoilers) and wonders if this is enough for the MCU to be back again.
