The First Run

This week on The First Run, Chris and Matt wade back into the documentary waters with Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim’s ‘You Can See Everything’.  The film was initially shot over the month prior to the beginning of Elizabeth Holmes’ prison sentence for the Theranos fraud conviction to provide people a real look into Holmes, and not the media’s creation version. Was this all just a big misunderstanding of what the word ‘Can’ means?  There’s the rundown of the big releases this holiday season on Physical Media (the holiday season means Halloween to Chris).  Then speaking of Chris, he shares his thoughts on actually seeing Ken Russell’s ‘The Devils’ in the theater.  All this and possibly more this week on The First Run!00:00-16:36: Intro/You Can See Everything16:37-21:18: Physical Media Picks21:19-25:33: The Devils25:34-27:28: Wrap UpTheme music by Jamal Malachi Ford-BeyTFR Ep. 531: Mank, The Devils

This week on The First Run Matt and Chris watch Jessica Chastain genre slum it with ‘Other Mommy’. Chris will then break down the big releases on physical media then they'll resurrect What are the Odds? sort of, wherein Chris asks one question in that format and then they have a freewheeling discussion.  00:00-14:44: Intro/Other Mommy14:45-25:00: Physical Media Picks25:01-43:26: What Are the Odds?!?43:27-46:44: Wrap UpTheme music by Jamal Malachi Ford-Bey

This week on The First Run, Chris and Matt experienced the latest film by Alejandro González Iñárritu and Tom Cruise, it’s ‘Digger’.  Watching the trailer, Chris felt people were going to either love or hate this film.  And could it be a musical?  So much mystery going into the film with its esoteric ad campaign. But does it work?  Then Chris runs down the latest big releases on Physical Media.  And I’m sure there will be other fun, endearing, and possibly outraging things discussed too.  It’s another stellar episode of The First Run.00:00-17:15: Intro/Digger17:16-26:18: Physical Media Picks26:19-30:45: Wrap UpTheme music by Jamal Malachi Ford-Bey

This week on The First Run, Chris and Matt take a trip to Raccoon City one more time.  Oh wait, what’s this?  Our tour guide is one Zach Cregger, who previously helmed ‘Barbarian’ and ‘Weapons’.  Well then.  Do we have a good video game adaption?  Could it possibly be a great one?!?  Then Chris runs down the big releases on Physical Media and has a couple things to complaint about.  So if you see something weird in the distance, crank the volume on this episode, turn around and walk the other way…00:00-16:16: Intro/Resident Evil (2026)16:17-24:50: Physical Media Picks24:51-26:30: Wrap UpTheme music by Jamal Malachi Ford-Bey
