In preparation of the release of Top Gun: Maverick, we play a fun little snack draft game in which we pick our favorite Tom Cruise characters. Ahead of that we cover news on the new trailers for Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One, Thor: Love and Thunder, and She-Hulk. We also touch on The CW picking up Gotham Knights and Disney+ doing a new Daredevil series. We also welcome Jack Gonzalez as our permanent third host on Back To The Blockbuster. Welcome to the team!

We also chat about the release of Firestarter, Ewen Mcgregor and Hayden Christensen’s comments about the Star Wars prequels, A Simple Favor getting a sequel, the latest casting news on the next Scream and the state of network TV following a slew of cancellations and renewals.
