00:01:39 — Lions
Two games, one win, one beating, and the realization that the secondary needs help immediately.

00:05:03 — Airport Clip / Busted Punk
A viral airport confrontation turns into a discussion about running your mouth, crossing lines, and finding out the hard way that some people are done arguing.

00:08:01 — Widow’s Bay
Widow’s Bay reportedly takes home 14 Emmys, which turns into more praise for the show and another reminder that Apple TV’s smaller library has some damn good stuff.

00:11:01 — Horror Month Ideas
October planning starts early: horror scorecards, blind picks, movie challenges, dice, the hat, and trying to figure out a way to make Horror Month more than just “watch a bunch of horror movies.”

00:15:28 — Horror Music Ideas
Instead of a normal music draw, October may lean into horror themes, creepy soundtrack cuts and songs tied to horror movies.

00:21:04 — Supergirl — HBO
Millie Alcock as Supergirl, Jason Momoa as Lobo, some fun stuff, some goofy stuff, and one needle drop that absolutely does not work.
Rating: 3.5/5.

00:23:57 — The Room (2003) — Tubi
We finally did it.
After years of hearing about Tommy Wiseau’s legendary disaster, we watched The Room together and recorded a real-time commentary track.
The football. The sex scenes. The dialogue. Lisa. Johnny. None of it makes any sense, and somehow that still doesn’t explain how strange this movie is.

00:44:41 — Transformers: The Movie (1986) — In Theaters — 40th Anniversary
A big-screen 40th anniversary screening of Transformers: The Movie, plus a Peter Cullen tribute and one more reminder of how hard this movie still hits for people who grew up with it.

00:56:33 — L.A. Confidential — Prime Video
The long-awaited first watch finally happens.
Russell Crowe, Guy Pearce, Kevin Spacey, Kim Basinger, Danny DeVito and one of the strongest noir mysteries of the 90s.

01:09:20 — Transcendence — Tubi
Johnny Depp, AI, digital immortality and a movie that feels a little more relevant now than it did when it came out.
Rating: 4/5.

01:15:12 — Munich — Prime Video
Spielberg’s 2005 thriller about the aftermath of the 1972 Munich Olympics attack and the covert retaliation that follows.
Heavy subject, great cast, and a movie built around revenge, consequence and moral fallout.

01:18:49 — The Social Network — Apple
The Fincher rabbit hole continues with Facebook, Zuckerberg, Aaron Sorkin dialogue and another reminder that David Fincher’s filmography is ridiculously consistent.

01:21:08 — The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo — Netflix
Fincher, Rooney Mara and Daniel Craig take us back into the world of Lisbeth Salander.
A dark mystery that leads directly into revisiting the original Swedish versions.

01:23:35 — Millennium — Prime Video
The six-part Swedish miniseries version of the Millennium trilogy.
Two episodes per story, covering The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played with Fire and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest.

01:30:26 — Sleepers — Tubi
A 1996 favorite with Brad Pitt, Jason Patric, Billy Crudup, Ron Eldard, Kevin Bacon and a subject heavy enough that this one comes with a real “watch with caution” warning.

01:40:20 — Vinland Saga — Netflix
The first three episodes are in.
A slower burn than the more supernatural anime stuff, but the historical angle is working so far.

MGP MOMENTS

00:02:06 — “We were the power bottom.”
The Lions recap reaches its natural conclusion almost immediately.

00:12:41 — Horror Month Scorecard
Points for great kills, genuine scares and twists. Negative points for stupid decisions and “why the hell would you do that?” moments.

00:16:33 — Captain Howdy
Possible parenting advice for Horror Month: if you ever meet someone named Captain Howdy, run.

00:24:38 — “Back before we were a glory hole...”
A sentence that needed immediate clarification.

00:26:49 — The Room Sex Scenes
We attempt to understand the geography. We fail.

00:28:01 — Why Is Everyone Throwing a Football?
Arguments, tuxedos, alleys — apparently every emotional crisis in The Room can be solved by tossing a football.

00:30:17 — The Never Again List
The Room starts threatening movies we previously swore we would never watch again.

00:44:41 — Transformers on the Big Screen
The 40th anniversary turns into nostalgia, Peter Cullen and a movie that still knows exactly where to hit.

01:15:01 — The Room Nearly Claims the TV
“I almost sold my TV and just said we’ve done enough.”

01:40:20 — “Inland Saga”
Word takes one last shot at anime transcription. Vinland Saga survives.

01:55:43 — Collider vs. The Room
A list of movies supposedly almost as bad as The Room immediately starts a fight with the list itself.
