We just watched The Blob (1958), and wow—this flick is pure drive-in gold. Steve McQueen leads a cast of “teenagers” who could’ve all passed for seniors at a high school reunion, but it only adds to the fun! The special effects are goofy, the dialog is retro gold, and every minute is a love letter to low-budget sci-fi. Whether it’s the Blob rolling over townsfolk or adults pretending to be rebellious kids, this movie is a B-movie masterpiece that begs to be seen with a rowdy crowd at the driv...

G20 had potential, but it chose pure absurdity instead. Watch our review, laugh with us, and let us know if you made it to the end.
We just watched MINTED: The Rise (And Fall?) of the NFT on Netflix. This documentary is an interesting and cautionary deep dive into the world of NFTs. We both gave it an 8. While the film highlights the explosive rise of NFTs, it also shows the major risks — especially if you’re late to the party. Plus, selling music albums as NFTs? Yeah... not the greatest idea. Check out our full review!
Disney+ just released the first 3 episodes of Andor Season 2, and honestly, we’re confused. It doesn’t feel or even look like Star Wars anymore. Episode 2, especially, was a complete non-starter.
