This week on The Stacks, in part one (0:00-1:30:17), we talk about the 1996 Cameron Crowe romcom blockbuster Jerry Maguire, in addition to the fourth episode of Breaking Bad's first season and a furry-casting for Batman Forever. In part two (1:30:18-2:13:43) we talk in shorter form about 8ish additional features: the 2002 Peter Hastings Disney theme park attraction adaptation flop The Country Bears, the goofy 1974 Guy Hamilton James Bond entry The Man With the Golden Gun, Isaac Florentine's 2009 Scott Adkins martial arts picture Ninja and its 2013 sequel Shadow of a Tear, Matt Johnson's 2023 fictionalized story of the rise and fall of Research in Motion, Blackberry, a quick revisit of Joel Schumacher's 1995 pop-neon-camp Batman Forever, the 2000 Bryan Singer comic book adaptation X-Men and its 2003 sequel X2, and the first episode of Wayne Spitzer's Tacoma, WA public access show Dead of Night. In part three, we talk briefly about everything else we've watched since last time, and make our picks for next week.
