Remember the first time you heard the screeching symphony of the dial-up internet? We kick off our episode with a nostalgic journey back to 1999 as we explore the movie "Y2K," featuring Rachel Ziegler. This film humorously captures the quirks of the late 90s with dial-up tones and Tamagotchi dramas, giving us a comedic peek into the era's distinctive social cliques. Meet memorable characters like "Soccer Chris" and relive those awkward teenage moments where hobbies defined who we were. We also touch on the new Star Wars spinoff, "The Skeleton Crew," promising a suburban galactic adventure that will spark your imagination.
Switching gears to sci-fi, we delve into a young boy's dream of becoming a Jedi, leading to an unexpected starship adventure that blends fantasy with his reality. This tale echoes the suburban surrealism reminiscent of "Stranger Things" and features encounters on pirate planets with potential Jedi figures. Our conversation also includes updates from the DC Universe, spotlighting James Gunn's Creature Commandos and the much-anticipated Peacemaker season two. The blend of Star Wars intrigue and DC's new phase promises exciting storylines for fans.
Finally, we shift the spotlight to the latest in movies and comics, stirring excitement with news of an "American Psycho" remake starring Austin Butler, directed by Luca Guadagnino. From the eerie AI of Netflix's "Afraid" to the latest twists in DC Comics' "White Knight" series, there's plenty to discuss. We also share the perks of being a founding member of A24, including juicy benefits like store credits and movie perks. Dive into our engaging recap as we navigate the world of entertainment news, providing insights and laughs along the way.
