As the movie world puts everyone in a strange limbo of theater openings mixed with release date pushback, we head to New Mutants to let you know if daring theaters is worth your time.
A strange, underhyped film that isn't getting a lot of attention post-release, but is it any good?

Tenet finally shows up, but the film that doesn't want you to know what it's about hasn't managed to get people swarming against the pandemic. Is it worth heading to the theater? You can catch the curious case of Bill&Ted returning to the screen decades later at home or in the theater, but is it worth either option?
We'll let you know where to put your money.

We're finally back and trying to catch up. Even a pandemic can only keep us away so long, and we're looking at Eurovision, Palm Springs, and The Old Guard this week, with special bonus ratings for Greyhound.
Spoiler - We recommend them all... except Shane doesn't love Eurovision... because he hates elves.

It was a challenge, and between the two of us it probably covers 200 films, but we've made our lists of the Top 20 Movies of the Decade.
In our originally live episode, we take you through our lists, let you know where we think we're crazy, and give you a lot of insights we learned in boiling down a decade into the best on offer. Among other things, we'll let you know some of the most forgotten movies, surprises other people have on their lists, and the movies that we're not putting on ours, no matter how many other people do.

Awards season isn't quite over until we share our own. The "Can't Win" Awards are our own effort to highlight some of the films that aren't getting the attention they deserve. Whether a movie is too niche, too indie, or otherwise just isn't going to get a "real" award, we honor those efforts that go overlooked to one degree or another... well, except Shane, who picks things that got nominated...
As usual, we each pick a winner in the big five - Movie, Director, Screenplay, Actor, and Actress.
Tune in to find some great movies that a lot of people missed last year.
Also, tune in Tuesday for a live show where we tell you our picks for Best Movies of the Decade
