Cinemania Live! "Catching Up on All Things Movies and Television!"

·54 min·5 clips

Hannah reveals that 2025 is the first year since 2011 without a single comic book movie hitting $700 million worldwide.

The episode begins with Dwayne, Hannah, and Larry reuniting after a brief hiatus, sharing personal updates like Hannah's new car. They quickly dive into movie talk, noting the cancellation of 'Dexter: Original Sin' in favor of 'Dexter: Resurrection'. Larry expresses frustration that indie films like 'Worker' are hard to find in theaters, while mainstream releases are lacking. Hannah mentions her 2024 Chevy Malibu, leading to a lighthearted misunderstanding. The group discusses recent viewings: Dwayne praises 'Caught Stealing' but pans 'Trust' with Sophie Turner, detailing its plot about leaked photos and a pregnancy scandal. They touch on film festivals, with Larry stressing over TIFF tickets for movies like 'Frankenstein'. Netflix's anti-theater stance is criticized, especially regarding 'K-Pop Demon Hunters'. Box office performance is a key theme, as Hannah reveals no comic book movie will hit $700 million worldwide in 2025, a first since 2011. Dwayne and Larry debate whether this signals superhero fatigue, citing hits like 'Weapons'. The conversation shifts to the DC Universe, with Dwayne arguing James Gunn's selective reboot is flawed, while Hannah defends it. They also discuss Marvel's casting, noting wasted talent like Natasha Leone in 'Fantastic Four'. Personal anecdotes include Hannah watching 'The Summer I Turned Pretty' and Dwayne's wife interrupting the show. The episode ends with social media shoutouts and plans to watch 'The Roses'.
