Description

Mike loves animation but not always when studios decide that the movies we love need a live-action remake. He shares what he thinks are the Top 5 Best, Worst and ones that actually need a live-action adaptation that haven’t been made.  In the Movie Review, Mike talks about Materialists starring Dakota Johnson, Pedro Pascal and Chris Evans. It’s about a young New York City matchmaker's lucrative business that gets complicated as she finds herself torn between the perfect match and her imperfect ex. Mike talks about 3 classic things it brought back, has Dakota Johnson recovered from Madame Web and how it included one of his newest movie pet peeves.  In the Trailer Park, Mike breaks down Eddington directed by Ari Aster. The western is set during the tense summer of 2020 and stars Joaquin Phoenix and Pedro Pascal in a heated small-town mayoral race.  It follows the political and social turmoil in the fictional city of Eddington, New Mexico, caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Mike does a dive into why Pedro Pascal is so popular right now.
