Fighting In The War Room: A Movies And Pop Culture Podcast
Katey, Matt, Da7e and David
The Movies and Pop-Culture Podcast
- 1 hour 5 minutes472 – Netflix’s Blockbuster Problem, Bluey’s “Surprise,” Shogun
This week, in a slightly later podcast than usual, the whole gang gets together in the War Room. First, Patches and David both saw Rebel Moon: The Scargiver (that’s part two of Rebel Moon) and neither liked it very much, which has us all debating what Netflix’s blockbuster movie strategy is. Then, Bluey had a surprise episode (not so surprising if you listened to Da7e last week) and it’s sparked a very silly online debate amongst Bluey adults. Finally, Katey, Da7e, and David watched all of Shogun (Fox on Hulu on Disney Plus) and touch base to sing its praises with some mild-spoilers peppered in. Watch Shogun!

This week, everyone jumps in to check in on Bluey (streaming on Disney Plus) in honor of the series longest episode to date “The Sign,” which functions as a possible finale (but likely isn’t). Then, David reports back from director Guy Richie’s very busy period with some thoughts on The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare before all four hosts jump into a war of their own with Alex Garland’s latest Civil War, currently in theaters.

This week, David has to sit a week out of the War Room, but it’s just because of visiting in-laws – he is safe and fine! Katey, Patches, and Da7e convene so Patches and Da7e can talk about the not-good, but also not-bad Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire, then Katey updates everyone on her departure from Vanity Fair and what her media life is like now. Finally, Katey and Da7e dig into another type of Empire in theaters right now, a Ghostbusters Frozen one since Katey’s eldest child wanted to see it as his first foray into the world of Ghostbusting. There are some spoilers for both Empire movies this week in their segments but those spoilers are VERY slight considering these movies and their visual spectacles.

Then, Patches gets some lightning round style reactions to this summer’s big upcoming tentpole movies. Finally, everyone dives into Doug Liman’s Road House, currently streaming on Amazon.

This week, Da7e’s body has revolted against itself, so Katey, Patches and David rally in the War Room. All three hosts are intrigued by 3 Body Problem on Netflix, even though Patches is probably the most into it. Then, although it started on Peacock, Girls5Eva has also moved to Netflix for its third season! Finally, David wants to talk about what we talk about when we talk about “the movies” being “back.” He explains himself, listen to the segment.

This week, we all learn about Patches’ recent directing project: a segment of a school play for Kindergarten thru fifth graders and discover that kids these days really know how to use their laptops. Then, because no one sent in reviews (or by popular demand, you chose), Katey’s two kids tell us about some Divine Beasts and a strategy to the Yiga Clan hideout in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Finally, all four hosts dig into the new blockbuster box-office smash Dune: Part Two.
