Breakfast All Day movie reviews

It's our last episode of 2022! So we're wrapping things up with a round of Ask Us Anything. Among the questions Alonso and Christy answer: what's the hardest part of being a film critic, what would we put on a Sight & Sound ballot, and what's a great so-bad-it's-good Christmas movie? Also, the brilliant Katie Walsh returns to help Christy review "I Wanna Dance With Somebody." We have very different opinions on the Whitney Houston biopic.

Come on in, the water's fine here at Breakfast All Day. We have an early review of the much-anticipated sequel "Avatar: The Way of Water," which is finally coming out this weekend, 13 years after James Cameron's original. We were dazzled by its imagery and not much else. We also review "Empire of Light," Sam Mendes' love letter to cinema in a year that's already full of them (and we still have "Babylon" coming next week). In news, we discuss LA Film Critics awards, Golden Globe nominations, "The Whale" box office, the legendary composer Angelo Badalamenti and more.

It's a total coincidence but we happen to be reviewing "The Whale" and "Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio" on the latest episode of Breakfast All Day. We loved one of these movies and didn't love the other. Tune in to find out which is which! In news we discuss Alonso's new book, Taylor Swift's feature directing debut, the American Film Institute's list of the year's top 10 movies, "Everything Everywhere All at Once" bullies, and Celine Dion.

It's December, so we're officially in Christmas movie season on Breakfast All Day. But we have very different opinions of "Violent Night," an action flick starring David Harbour as a butt-kicking Santa Claus. We are in agreement, though, about "The Inspection," a sensitive and compelling indie drama about a queer, black man who joins the Marines. In news, we discuss the New York Film Critics Circle's year-end picks, the once-a decade Sight & Sound poll where "Jeanne Dielman" was named the best film ever, a bunch of trailers including the hilarious "Cocaine Bear," and the death of Fleetwood Mac's legendary singer/songwriter/keyboardist Christine McVie.

Just a quick midweek bite here at Breakfast All Day so you can save plenty of room for Thanksgiving dinner. Christy and Alonso review the star-studded sequel "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery," which is playing in theaters for a week starting Nov. 23 before streaming on Netflix Dec. 23. We also catch up with "Disenchanted," the disappointing sequel to the 2007 fairy tale musical "Enchanted," which is streaming on Disney+.

Christy and Alonso review "Bones and All," starring Timothee Chalamet and Taylor Russell as young cannibals in love. We also discuss "She Said," about the New York Times reporters who broke the Harvey Weinstein sexual harassment story. In news, we talk about the Taylor Swift tour overwhelming Ticketmaster, more Twitter destruction, Brendan Fraser, the "80 for Brady" trailer and more.

Just a quick, midweek nibble from us at Breakfast All Day as we review "The Menu," the dark comedy starring Anya Taylor-Joy, Ralph Fiennes and Nicholas Hoult. It's one of many skewer-the-rich satires out there these days. We also have some news headlines, including the huge box office opening for "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever," Dave Chappelle's "Saturday Night Live" monologue, Daniel Craig's infectious Belvedere vodka ad and more. We'll be back Friday with reviews of "She Said" and "Bones and All," so be sure to join us!

It may seem like a random week between "The Fabelmans," "Spirited" and "Falling for Christmas," but we contain multitudes here at Breakfast All Day. Plus movie news of course, which includes Kevin Conroy, Andy Taylor, Chris Evans, Jimmy Kimmel and Aaron Carter. Over at our Patreon, we recap a couple of incredible episodes of television: the season finale of "The Handmaid's Tale" and this week's prison break on "Andor." And don't forget to join us Saturday afternoon for out live spoiler discussion of "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" at our YouTube channel. You can find us here.

We've got a bite-sized but meaty morsel of Breakfast All Day for you midweek with our early review of "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever." Alonso and Christy have a spoiler-free discussion of the much-anticipated sequel to "Black Panther," but join us Saturday Nov. 12 at 4 pm PST at our YouTube channel where we'll go live (for the first time!) with an in-depth spoiler chat. You can find us here. We also review the "Weird: The Al Yankovic Story," a hilarious parody of the music biopic about the king of parody songs. It's streaming on The Roku Channel.

It's the calm before the storm on the latest Breakfast All Day, as we review a couple of indies ahead of some huge releases in the weeks to come. Alonso and Christy discuss the drama "My Policeman," which finds Harry Styles in a forbidden love triangle. It's streaming now on Prime Video. We also review "Causeway," which finds Jennifer Lawrence returning to the kind of raw, unadorned performance she made her name on originally. It's streaming now on Apple TV+. In news, we discuss the myriad ways Elon Musk is ruining Twitter, plus the new "Avatar: The Way of Water" trailer, Kit Connor, Aubrey Plaza, the documentary "God Forbid" and more. And over at our Patreon, the latest on "Andor" and "The Handmaid's Tale." Cozy up on this fall day and join us!

Millie Bobby Brown is a total delight as she returns to the role of Sherlock Holmes' plucky younger sister in "Enola Holmes 2." The action comedy starts streaming Friday on Netflix, but we have an early review for you here at Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy also catch up with the latest from writer-director James Gray, the semi-autobiographical drama "Armageddon Time," which includes strong performances from Anne Hathaway, Jeremy Strong, Anthony Hopkins and young Banks Repeta. It's in limited release now but is expanding wider. We're shocked that it's already November, so stick with us for this big month of movies! And mark your calendar for Nov. 12, when we'll do a livestream discussion of "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" on our YouTube channel. Join us, and if you haven't already, we'd love it if you'd subscribe.

It's sort of a low-key week around here as we wait for Black Panther to return on Breakfast All Day. Christy and Alonso review "Call Jane," about the underground group that helped women secure safe abortions in 1968 Chicago, starring a terrific Elizabeth Banks and Sigourney Weaver. We also catch up with the toxic romance "Stars at Noon," the latest from master French filmmaker Claire Denis, which is now streaming on Hulu. In news, we discuss Elon Musk buying Twitter, the "Wakanda Forever" premiere (and keep an eye out for our YouTube livestream discussion on Nov. 12), the weird Matthew Perry-Keanu Reeves beef, James Gunn taking over DC Studios and more. And over at our Patreon, recaps of this week's excellent episodes of "Andor" and "The Handmaid's Tale." Thanks as always for hanging out, and save some Halloween candy for us.

Join us for a colorful romp through the underworld on Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy discuss "Wendell & Wild," the wonderfully weird stop-motion animation fantasy from director Henry Selick and co-writer Jordan Peele. It's streaming on Netflix starting Friday but we have an early review. We also have a ton of news to catch up on from the past week, including all the Kanye West anti-Semitism fallout, Gotham Award nominations, Henry Cavill returning to play Superman, the "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania" trailer and the death of Leslie Jordan. Thanks as always for joining us.

It's star-studded this week on Breakfast All Day, as a couple of our great friends swing by to help review some new movies with serious A-list casts. Alonso and Christy talk "Black Adam," Dwayne Johnson's long-awaited foray into the DC Extended Universe. Katie Walsh joins in for "Ticket to Paradise," a scenic and superficial rom-com that reunites George Clooney ad Julia Roberts. Tim Grierson stops by for "The School for Good and Evil," an overstuffed YA fantasy film on Netflix featuring Charlize Theron, Kerry Washington, Michelle Yeoh and Laurence Fishburne. And over at our Patreon, we have recaps of this week's extremely eventful episodes of "Andor" and "The Handmaid's Tale." Join us — all of us!

It's Arthouse Tuesday here at Breakfast All Day as we review two movies we absolutely loved. "The Banshees of Inisherin" reunites writer-director Martin McDonagh with his "In Bruges" stars Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson in a hilarious, horrifying and heartbreaking story of male friendship. The latest from Korean master Park Chan-wook, "Decision to Leave," is a gorgeous and devastating film noir that will linger with you long afterward. And in news, we discuss the "Halloween Ends" box office, "Tales of the Jedi," Olivia Wilde's special salad dressing and Pan Solo. Grab a plate and join us.

Oh hey, we're just hanging out with a bowl full of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, waiting for Michael Myers to come knock on our door at Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy review the horror movie "Halloween Ends" — which hopefully truly is the end — as well as the emotionally wrenching drama "Till," about the 1955 lynching of 14-year-old Emmett Till. In news, we discuss the deaths of Angela Lansbury and Robbie Coltrane, as well as Sydney Sweeney as Barbarella and Liam Neeson as Lt. Frank Drebin. And it's a big day at our Patreon with recaps of three excellent episodes of television: "Andor," "The Handmaid's Tale" and the series finale of "She-Hulk." Join us!

It's Spooky Tuesday at Breakfast All Day, as we review the Marvel special "Werewolf by Night," which is streaming on Disney+ (and we go into spoilers, since it's been out for several days now). We also review the "Hellraiser" reboot with our friend William Bibbiani, who's an expert on the horror series. (Apparently this is the 11th one, and Alonso and Christy have seen none of them.) In news, we discuss the dismal box office opening for "Amsterdam," Botox courtesy of "Triangle of Sadness," an early opening for "Glass Onion" and the death of veteran Hollywood journalist Nikki Finke.

We're deep into fall movie season on Breakfast All Day. Christy and Alonso have reviews of two of the most anticipated titles, which happen to be coming out in the same week: "TÁR," with its riveting lead performance from Cate Blanchett, and "Triangle of Sadness," the Palme d'Or winner from writer-director Ruben Östlund. In news, we discuss Velma from Scooby-Doo being officially queer, Alec Baldwin settling with the family of "Rust" cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, trailers for "The Super Mario Bros. Movie" and "Shotgun Wedding," "Moonlighting" coming to streaming, and comedian Judy Tenuta, who died at 72. And over at our Patreon, recaps of "Andor," "The Handmaid's Tale" and "She-Hulk."

We're doing a bit of time traveling on the latest Breakfast All Day. First, Alonso and Christy look ahead to the star-studded hot mess that is "Amsterdam," which comes out this Friday. Then, we look back at the star-studded hot mess that is "Don't Worry Darling," which has been out for a little while now so it's time for a spoiler discussion. And in news, we discuss the death of country legend Loretta Lynn and the importance of "Coal Miner's Daughter," plus box office, the "Wakanda Forever" trailer, the Lizzo flute fiasco and more. Join us!

We're in love with "Bros" and we think you will be, too, on Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy review this sweet and raunchy queer rom-com starring Billy Eichner and Luke Macfarlane. Also, our good friend, horror expert William Bibbiani (aka Bibbs), joins Christy to review the extremely creepy "Smile."

Oh hey, it's just us, hanging out on Pandora for our latest episode of Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy catch up with the 4K re-release of "Avatar," which is back in theaters ahead of the sequel "Avatar: The Way of Water." We also have an early review of "The Good House," a romantic comedy/drama that reunites Sigourney Weaver with Kevin Kline (and it's Sigourney Weaver Day around here, which is always welcome). In news, we talk box office, more "Don't Worry Darling" drama, Russia boycotting the Academy Awards, the Taylor Hawkins tribute concert, new seasons of "True Detective" and "Squid Game," and more. And over at our Patreon, we revisit "The Queen" for September's Off the Menu selection. Thanks for joining us!

We're frolicking in suburbia with Harry and Miss Flo this week on Breakfast All Day. Christy and Alonso review the much-anticipated "Don't Worry Darling," and feel baffled by this beautiful but ultimately ridiculous sci-fi thriller. (We'll do a spoiler discussion down the road. We have lots of questions.) But we were both pleasantly surprised by "Confess, Fletch," with Jon Hamm stepping into one of Chevy Chase's iconic roles. It's in theaters and streaming on Paramount+. In news, we discuss the "Avatar" 4K re-release, trailers for "Knock at the Cabin" and "Bardo," Margot Robbie, season 2 of "The Vow" and more. And we have a ton of stuff on our Patreon: the first three installments of the "Star Wars" series "Andor," as well as new episodes of "The Handmaid's Tale" and "She-Hulk."

So many new fall movies came out this past weekend, we had to scatter them across several days to get to them all. On our latest episode of Breakfast All Day, we review the exceptionally kick-ass "The Woman King," the needless remake of the Austrian thriller "Goodnight Mommy" (which Alonso liked better than Christy did), and we go deep into spoilers on "Barbarian" now that the horror movie has been our for a little while. But it's best to see it knowing nothing, so you've been warned! In news, we discuss the "Constantine" sequel, the excellent indie drama "God's Country," Ezra Miller, Woody Allen and more. Thanks for joining us.

Fall movie season begins in earnest this week, and we have a Breakfast All Day review of two much-anticipated titles featuring deeply committed performances from their female stars. "Blonde" finds Ana de Armas at the center of a beautiful and brutal look at the life of Marilyn Monroe, and "Pearl," the prequel to "X," offers a gonzo turn from Mia Goth. In news, Christy and Alonso discuss "Rogue Squadron," "Squid Game," "The Little Mermaid," "I Wanna Dance With Somebody" and more. And it's a big day on our Patreon because "The Handmaid's Tale" is back on Hulu, and we have a recap of the first two episodes of season 5. We also recap this week's "She-Hulk," which gave Alonso a new nickname. Join us for all this podcast goodness!

We're freaking out in a "Moonage Daydream" here at Breakfast All Day, but we're also celebrating because it's our 300th episode! And this week is a great example of the totally random cross-section of stuff you get from us. Alonso and Christy review the trippy, kaleidoscopic David Bowie documentary, which is best experienced on the biggest screen you can find with the crispest sound. It comes out Friday, Sept. 16 in theaters, including several IMAX locations. Dan Murrell returns to help Christy catch up with the twisty horror movie "Barbarian," and we kept our review spoiler-free because you should go in knowing as little as possible. And we have a jam-packed news segment between D23, the Toronto International Film Festival and the death of French New Wave legend Jean-Luc Godard. We're thrilled you've stuck with us this long, so thank you!

We're still waiting for someone to come along and sprinkle fairy dust on us. 'Til then, we're just gonna keep acting like real film critics here at Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy review the truly terrible live-action remake of "Pinocchio," which went straight to streaming on Disney+. We also have lots of news for you, including the Toronto International Film Festival starting (with Alonso's breakdown of how meaningless standing ovations are), Disney's D23 Expo, trailers for "Glass Onion" and "My Policeman," Lea Michele in "Funny Girl," Beyond Fest celebrating "RRR" director S.S. Rajamouli and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap episode 4 of "She-Hulk: Attorney at Law," which was actually good! Thanks for sharing some of your time with us.

Don't worry, darling — Breakfast All Day is back. And Alonso is recovering and feeling perky just in time to talk about whether Harry Styles actually spit on Chris Pine at the Venice Film Festival. Also in news, he and Christy discuss the movies premiering at Telluride, new trailers for "White Noise" and "Empire of Light," accusations against Arcade Fire's Win Butler, and Rob Schneider saying he'll toss away his career for his beliefs, whatever that means. We also catch up with a review of the satire "Honk for Jesus. Save Your Soul.," featuring excellent performances from Regina Hall and Sterling K. Brown. And over at our Patreon, we finally recap the season 2 finale of "Only Murders in the Building" as well as episodes 2 and 3 of "She-Hulk." Thanks for your patience!

Lace up your roller skates and join us for an end-of-summer edition of Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy catch up with the comedy-drama-horror-romance "Spin Me Round," which is as messy as it sounds. It stars Alison Brie and Aubrey Plaza and is in theaters and streaming. And in our latest round of "Was It Great or Were You 8?" we had the pleasure of revisiting "Xanadu," which Christy still loves with zero irony. With the recent passing of Olivia Newton-John, this is a perfect opportunity to reflect on what made her so beloved. Come back next week when we'll have more movie news and reviews. Until then, stay cool over Labor Day weekend, and thanks for sharing some of your time with us.

Alonso's feeling a little under the weather this week, but the always delightful and insightful Katie Walsh was kind enough to fill in on a couple of Breakfast All Day film reviews. We discuss "Three Thousand Years of Longing," George Miller's disappointing follow-up to "Mad Max: Fury Road," and the extremely weird "Funny Pages," a comedy that feels like a return to the early days of indie film. We'll be back on Monday with news as well as TV recaps for our Patreon subscribers: the season 2 finale of "Only Murders in the Building," and episode 2 of "She-Hulk." Hope you're having a relaxing end of the summer, and thanks for sharing some of those lazy days with us.

In these lazy, last days of summer, we're catching up with a perfectly pleasant (if problematic) rom-com on Breakfast All Day: "Look Both Ways," a "Sliding Doors" homage starring Lili Reinhart. We also have an early review of "Breaking," in theaters Friday, starring John Boyega in the true story of a Georgia bank holdup. And in news, we discuss the #BamaRush phenomenon getting the documentary treatment, Bill Paxton, Gary Busey, "Spider-Man: No Way Home," "Avatar," Nick Kroll and more. Kick back and join us.

Idris Elba will save us all this week on Breakfast All Day. Our good friend Kristian Harloff joins Christy to review the thriller "Beast" (and if you're not already subscribed to his YouTube Channel, you should be). Alonso and Christy also review the nutty horror prequel "Orphan: First Kill." In news, we discuss Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, Jonah Hill, "Wednesday," "Jaws," "Sesame Street" and more. And we've got a ton of great stuff over at our Patreon: recaps of the first episode of "She-Hulk: Attorney at Law" and the second-to-last episode of "Only Murders in the Building," plus a back-to-school Off the Menu discussion of 1973's "American Graffiti," the movie that put George Lucas on the map. Hop in your car, crank it up and cruise the boulevard with us. * Our latest Movie House Shout-Out goes to the historic and beloved Manor Theatre in Pittsburgh, where they're celebrating their 100th anniversary. They've also got a fantastic array of films planned for their End of Summer Blockbuster Fest, running from Aug. 26-Sept. 1. To buy tickets and learn more about the Manor, visit them here.

Hold on tight — we've got you here on Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy catch up with "Fall," a lean, mean survival thriller that will make you seriously squirm in your seat if you're afraid of heights. In news, we discuss Ezra Miller, Tom Holland, Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis, Florence Pugh and Zach Braff, and we remember director Wolfgang Petersen. And over at our Patreon, our subscribers picked a great Off the Menu selection as summer draws to a close: 1973's "American Graffiti." Hop in your car, crank it up and join us.

We begin with sad news yet again on Breakfast All Day with the death of Anne Heche. Alonso and Christy discuss the actress' long and varied career and tragic end at just 53. Also in news: Armie Hammer, Fred Savage, the Golden Globes, "Nope," "Bodies Bodies Bodies" and more. Plus we have reviews of "Summering," from director and co-writer James Ponsoldt, and "Emily the Criminal," featuring yet another gripping dramatic performance from Aubrey Plaza. And for our Patreon subscribers, a recap of this week's "Only Murders in the Building." Could Michael Rapaport really be Glitter Guy? We're not so sure. Join us for a late summer hangout.

We're heartbroken here at Breakfast All Day over the death of Olivia Newton-John. Alonso and Christy discuss her film and music career and what she's meant as as pop culture icon for decades. Also in news: box office, Anne Heche, Jennette McCurdy, the Spice Girls and Nicole Kidman, who will return as the face of AMC Theaters. We also have a couple of reviews for you: the horror flick "They/Them" on Hulu, and the cringe comedy "I Love My Dad." Thanks so much for joining us during these waning days of summer.

Alonso and Christy are heading in different directions in our review of the star-studded, action-packed "Bullet Train" on Breakfast All Day. But we agree that the "Predator" prequel "Prey" on Hulu and A24's horror comedy "Bodies Bodies Bodies" are both pretty kick-ass, and you should see them as summer movie season winds down. In news, we talk about the whole "Batgirl" fiasco, the passing of the legendary Vin Scully and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap this week's episode of "Only Murders in the Building," which sheds some light on Mabel's past. Hop on and join us.

And we're back! Vacation is over and it's time to play catch-up on Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy have a lengthy, spoiler-filled review of Jordan Peele's "Nope," and we slog through "The Gray Man," the latest big-budget, star-studded action extravaganza on Netflix. And in news, we discuss everything that's been going on the past couple of weeks: the Bennifer wedding, Comic-Con, the "Wakanda Forever" trailer, Will Smith's video apology for the Oscar slap, and several celebrity deaths including Paul Sorvino and Nichelle Nichols. Hope your summer's been restful, and thanks for spending part of it with us.

Oh hey, it's just us, doing another round of Ask Us Anything on Breakfast All Day. Christy and Alonso answer more of your questions, ranging from our favorite movies to recommend to people, to the best Harrison Ford role, to how we got started as film critics. We also review the second half of SS Rajamouli's two-part Telugu extravaganza, 2017's "Baahubali: The Conclusion," which we ended up liked better than "Baahubali: The Beginning." We'll be back next week with reviews of new movies, including "Nope" and "Bullet Train." Thanks for sharing part of your summer with us!

We loved "RRR" so much and got so many great suggestions of other Telugu films to watch that we're now digging into "Baahubali: The Beginning" on Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy were blown away by SS Rajamouli's 2015 movie, and we'll have a review of part two, "Baahubali: The Conclusion," next week. Also this week, we introduce a new segment we're so excited about: Was It Great, or Were You 8? We'll look back at movies we loved when we were 8 years old to see whether they truly were great, or we're just remembering them fondly through the rosy lens of nostalgia. First off: Alonso has chosen "The Bad News Bears" from 1976. When you're done listening, you can vote on our YouTube poll. Let us know what you think, and thanks for spending part of your summer with us!

Dakota Johnson breaks the fourth wall to offer dry, witty asides and the well-timed eyeroll in a cheeky adaptation of Jane Austen's "Persuasion." Purists aren't loving it but Alonso and Christy had a good time, as you'll see from our Breakfast All Day review. In news, we discuss the Bradley Cooper-Huma Abedin romance, Delia Owens, Armie Hammer, Constance Wu, Joe Dante, trailers for "Orphan: First Kill" and "She Said," and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap the thrilling season finale of "Ms. Marvel." Quick programming note: Christy's heading out on vacation for a couple of weeks, but we have lots of goodies planned in her absence, including another round of Ask Us Anything and a new segment we're really excited about. Thanks for listening, and we'll be back with new episodes the first week in August!

The moss is dripping and the cicadas are chirping, but we're not exactly joining the chorus of "Where the Crawdads Sing," the new movie based on the best-selling novel. It comes out Friday, and Alonso and Christy have an early review on Breakfast All Day. But we do have lots of good stuff in news, including Emmy nominations, "Thor: Love and Thunder" box office, the Lea Michele/Beanie Feldstein "Funny Girl" fiasco, Elon Musk backing out of buying Twitter, Kirsten Dunst and Jesse Plemons getting married, and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap the latest episode of "Only Murders in the Building" on Hulu. Hop in your boat and join us.

We loved "Thor: Ragnarok," which makes the letdown of "Thor: Love and Thunder" that much more of a bummer. Alonso and Christy have a Breakfast All Day review of this wildly uneven MCU extravaganza. In news, we discuss the career of James Caan, who died at 82; the #Gentleminion backlash; trailers for "Clerks III" and "Amsterdam"; the George Clooney nipple batsuit; this weekend's Blobfest and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap the epic "Stranger Things" season 4 finale and this week's "Ms. Marvel." Join us!

We're at the halfway point in the year, so it's a good time to look back at the best films we've seen so far on Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy have a bit of overlap, including the spectacular "RRR," but we have some variety, too. In news, we talk about the record opening for "Minions: The Rise of Gru," as well as the phenomenon of #Gentleminions, in which groups of young men get dressed up in suits and ties to watch the "Minions" sequel in the theater. Also: "Stranger Things," Tom Cruise's 60th birthday and the end of the Movie Trivia Schmoedown. And for our Patreon subscribers, a recap of this week's delightful yet poignant episode of "Only Murders in the Building." Thanks for joining us for this quick, midweek pop-in.

You can run but you can't hide: Those little yellow dudes are storming into theaters this holiday weekend with the sequel "Minions: The Rise of Gru." Christy's friend and fellow YouTube critic Dan Murrell was kind enough to slog through it with her on Breakfast All Day, and they had more fun talking about the movie than actually watching the movie itself. Alonso and Christy also review the Regency-era rom-com "Mr. Malcolm's List," which is entertaining but feels familiar and inferior compared to "Bridgerton." In news, we discuss the Cinerama Dome, R. Kelly, Dakota Johnson, Tim Allen, Cameron Diaz and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap the gripping second-to-last episode of "Stranger Things" season 4 (we'll get to the finale next week) as well as "Ms. Marvel" E4. Stay safe this weekend and thanks for sticking with us.

We're trying something a little different in our midweek Breakfast All Day drop-in: Season two of "Only Murders in the Building" has begun on Hulu, and Alonso and Christy are sharing our recap of the first two episodes widely. It's the kind of content we usually offer exclusively to our Patreon subscribers, and we hope you'll consider joining us there for upcoming recaps this season as well as all of our TV coverage year-round. And in news, we discuss "Elvis" box office, the celebrity response to the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, Alec Baldwin interviewing Woody Allen, and the theory that Maverick's actually dead for most of the "Top Gun" sequel. What do you think? Let us know, and thanks for hanging out with us.

Are you lonesome tonight? Or sad, or scared, or seething with a white-hot rage over the state of things? Alonso and Christy hope to provide a bit of solace and escape on the latest Breakfast All Day Podcast. We touch briefly on the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe vs. Wade in news, plus discuss The Odd 1s Out, Florence Pugh, "My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3," Rupert Murdoch and Jerry Hall's divorce and more. Of course we had to review the Baz Luhrmann extravaganza "Elvis," as well as the completely charming "Marcel the Shell With Shoes On" and the gripping horror film "The Black Phone." And for our Patreon pals, recaps of the "Obi-Wan Kenobi" finale and this week's "Ms. Marvel." We're here for you no matter what, so thanks for sticking with us. Be safe out there.

Alonso and Christy may be a little late for the ceremony, but we RSVPd yes to "Father of the Bride" on Breakfast All Day. We were both charmed by the latest version of this classic comedy, starring Andy Garcia and Gloria Estefan, which is streaming on HBO Max. We also went back in time to 1958 to review "The Blob" in honor of our Movie House Shout-Out of the week, The Colonial Theatre in Phoenixville, PA. That's where much of the classic B-horror movie was shot, and it's where the annual Blobfest will take place July 8-10. Watch the movie with fellow "Blob" fans, then run screaming from the theater together in terror! Tickets are on sale now. And in news, we discuss "Lightyear" box office, the latest "Stranger Things" trailer, Ben Stiller visiting Ukraine, and the documentary "George Michael: Freedom Uncut," in theaters one night only on June 22. We don't want your freedom, as Wham! sang, so thanks very much for sticking with us.
