Surprise! There's a new Cloverfield movie! In honor of the spontaneous debut of 'The Cloverfield Paradox', which went up on Netflix following last night's Super Bowl, Jenna and Chris are here to record a very spontaneous episode. The movie is almost too fresh for us to get an overall critical consensus, but we're here to talk about the immediate - and polarizing - reaction this movie has gotten so far.
(SPOILERS, obviously.)
How does this one-of-a-kind release strategy impact the Cloverfield franchise - and the film industry as a whole? Do the unsolved questions in this movie really matter? Just how tall is Elizabeth Debicki? Listen to find out.
