Surprise, Sidney! Tune in for our longest episode yet, where we cover 10+ February releases in true Box Office Bets fashion: at too late an hour... becoming progressively tired... in the middle of a rainstorm! If there's any other way you'd have your movie podcast, look elsewhere. But if you like these "woke losers" just the way they are, press play!

Because this week's episode highlights ‘Scream 7,’ a film we do not wish to support, we have donated to film critic David Ehrlich's fundraiser for the Palestine Children's Relief Fund and we implore our listeners to do the same!

(Sing to the tune of Stephen Schwartz's classic song 'For Good')

Like a Dek shunned by his father, kicked out of Yautja Prime.

Like J-Law and Edward Cullen, fighting with a kid.

Who can say if Oz Perkins is a Keeper?

But, Now You See Me 3.

Glen Powell is Running.

And we saw Wicked: For Good.

This week, we cover Predator: Badlands, Die My Love, Keeper, Now You See Me: Now You Don’t, The Running Man, and Wicked: For Good in RECORD time! Are we getting better at our jobs, or are movies just getting worse? Who can say?

Bruce Springsteen may have been 'Born to Run,' but will his movie biopic starring Jeremy Allen White make it to 'The Promise Land' of box office success or get 'Lost In The Flood' of a dismal October slate?
