Producer and showrunner Ben Roy is here to talk about the new Netflix nature docuseries Our Living World, diva cicadas, interwoven climates, and Cate Blanchett - beekeeper extraordinaire. More about Our Living World: This is the wondrous, untold story of the most magical, powerful force on Earth: life itself, and how it shapes the world through incredible physical connections and astonishing webs, producing a planetary life support system that sustains and protects us all. Spanning continents and oceans, fueled by wind and water and fire, this network allows the densest forests to impact the coldest glaciers, and the deepest oceans to feed the hottest deserts. But with Earth now changing at unprecedented speeds due to human activity, our living world’s network is malfunctioning – and it will take all creatures, great and small, to return its balance.

Unfortunately unless you were part of the ride, GameStop: Rise of the Players might leave you more confused than when you started watching. Also this week brings a pair of whodunit satires with The Afterparty on Apple TV+ and the cumbersomely titled The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window on Netflix.

| 27 Oct 2023 | Review - Pain Hustlers | Life on Our Planet | 00:05:25 | |
Pain Hustlers isn't too painful compared to some of its other original streaming counterparts, but it doesn't quite go far enough. Life on Our Planet is part documentary, part recreation, all nature.

The latest adaptation of The Color Purple sings from stage to screen. We wish Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom had considered staying lost.

We had the chance to sit down with Everett Downing and Patrick Harpin, the co-creators of the new Netflix series “My Dad the Bounty Hunter” and chat about about role models, mixing styles, and dimbos (aka dad himbos) More about My Dad The Bounty Hunter: It's an animated action-comedy series following close-knit siblings Lisa and Sean, who stow away on their dad’s latest work trip, hoping to finally get some quality time together. Little do they know Dad’s been keeping a secret from them — he’s actually the toughest bounty hunter in the galaxy! Launched into the surprise space adventure of a lifetime, Lisa and Sean discover that their seemingly average dad’s job is anything but boring. Dodging dangerous aliens, robots, and laser fights galore, family bonding time becomes much more than they bargained for as they try to help their dad in pursuit of his toughest fugitive yet. With his kids along for the ride, Dad must show up for them when they need it most — and they’d better make it home before Mom finds out! From Creators and Executive Producers Everett Downing and Patrick Harpin, MY DAD THE BOUNTY HUNTER is a warp-speed adventure across the constellation of ups, downs and moments in between that shape family life. Starring: Laz Alonso, Yvonne Orji, Priah Ferguson, Yvette Nicole Brown, JeCobi Swain, Leslie Uggams, Rob Riggle, Jim Rash, and Jamie Chung. “My Dad the Bounty Hunter” premieres on Netflix on February 9th.

| 14 Jan 2022 | Review - Hotel Transylvania: Transformania | Peacemaker | Cheer Season 2 | 00:09:30 | |

| 31 Mar 2025 | Roundtable - Snow White | Avengers: Doomsday | Daredevil: Born Again Episodes 05 - 06 | 01:10:15 | |
We are horrified by Snow White (but stand by star Rachel Zegler). Marvel tries our patience this week with the Avengers: Doomsday announcement that is likely 2x the runtime of the actual movie...

| 28 Apr 2023 | Review - Polite Society | Peter Pan & Wendy | 00:11:12 | |
Nida Manzoor's Polite Society is more like delight society with a refreshing and surprising original story and action packed fun.

| 24 Mar 2022 | Review - Everything Everywhere All at Once | Pachinko | 00:06:57 | |
Michelle Yeoh's performance is everything we ever thought we wanted from her and things we didn't even know we wanted from her in Everything Everywhere All at Once which is ultimately a story of family wrapped in a spectacular maximalist package. Pachinko also covers the story of a family through many branches and generations in Korea and Japan - based on Min Jin Lee's book. Find us at: www.werewatchingwhat.com | |||

| 01 Jul 2022 | Review - Elvis | Mr. Malcolm's List | Minions: The Rise of Gru | 00:11:24 | |
Baz Lurhman's Elvis is as bloated as the King himself at times. Mr. Malcolm's List does it's best to draw from the greats, but doesn't necessarily achieve greatness itself.

| 22 Apr 2021 | We're Interviewing Who?! - Opera with Director Erick Oh | 00:38:49 | |
We welcome Academy Award nominated director Erick Oh (on the week of the 93rd Academy Awards!) to talk about his short animated film Opera and how it sits at the intersection of film and fine art. Also the state of the animation industry, Asian / AAPI representation, and what it's really like to have a wholly independent film suddenly recognized on a global scale. Opera Written and directed by award-winning filmmaker and former Pixar animator Erick Oh, ‘OPERA’ is an animation project that can be defined as a contemporary animated edition of the Renaissance fresco mural paintings. Driven by the spirits of Bosch, Michelangelo, Botticelli and more, Erick portrays, in his own signature whimsical and surreal way, the human society and history, filled with beauty and absurdity. Viewers will experience the range in-depth emotions through this epic reflection of human life: it is hopeful, comical, thoughtful, yet scary and sad. This piece is not only a living piece of art, it is an invitation to question the mechanisms of our society and human behavior. The universality of its message will inspire new perspectives on humanity and break down conversations. The full cycle of ‘OPERA’ consists of Day and Night. Each section and individual character’s activities are intrinsically connected so the viewers can eventually enjoy the entire pyramid no matter which character they set their eyes on first.
