It's a sequel 20 years in the making: How does "The Devil Wears Prada 2" hold up? We're split! We also discuss the Adam Scott horror film "Hokum" and the very, very strange animated version of "Animal Farm."

April 19 "The Christophers," "Lee Cronin's The Mummy," "Normal"
Happy anniversary, Tim and Susan! Grierson and his wife are celebrating their 20th anniversary this week, so our recording was a bit piecemeal this week, but we still hit the big movies. We start with Steven Soderbergh's 37th film, "The Christophers." Then we talk "Lee Cronin's The Mummy" and the Bob Odenkirk actioner "Normal."

March 30 "They Will Kill You," "Alpha," "Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice"
Will's about to go on vacation for a week, and is obsessed with the Illini right now anyway, so we dig into three movies the best we can. First, it's the hipster horror flick "They Will Kill You." Then the French body horror thriller "Alpha." And we close with Vince Vaughn/James Marsden Hulu action comedy "Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice." And we'll back in a fortnight, hopefully with an Illinois national championship.

March 23 "Project Hail Mary," "Ready or Not 2: Here I Come," "Two Prosecutors"
It's the biggest hit of the year so far, and it's original (or at least based on an original book): It's Ryan Gosling in "Project Hail Mary." One of us likes it more than the other. Also, we discuss the horror sequel "Ready or Not 2: Here I Come" as well as the Ukranian historical drama "Two Prosecutors."

March 16 2026 Oscars Wrapup, "undertone," "Casino"
The Oscars happened! Tim and Will wrapup "One Battle After Another"'s big night, right after the show ended. Also, we discuss the new A24 horror film "undertone." Then, in our Reboot section, we dig into Martin Scorsese's "Casino," for 1995.

March 09 "The Bride!" "Hoppers," 2026 Oscar Night Predictions
We've got two pretty big new movies this week: It's the wild Jessie Buckley-Christian Bale mashup "The Bride!" and then the new Pixar movie, "Hoppers." Lots going on there! In both!

And then, because the Oscars are Sunday, we make our predictions in each of the major categories. We don't remember a time the winners have been more difficult to predict.

March 02 "Scream 7," "In the Blink of an Eye," "EPIC: Elvis Presley in Concert"
We're back in our regular homes, and apparently we're all at war. Great. We've got three new movies to talk about to distract us. First, it's the sequel "Scream 7." Then it's the Andrew Stanton Hulu drama "In the Blink of an Eye." And we close with the Baz Luhrmann Elvis concert movie, "EPIC: Elvis Presley in Concert."

February 21 "How to Make a Killing," "Get Shorty," "The Taking of Pelham 123"
It's an in-person show! After watching Leitch's Illinois Fighting Illini destroy Grierson's USC Trojans on Wednesday, they got together for one of the always-special Look At Each Other's Faces While Talking shows. We had one new movie: The Glen Powell A24 film "How to Make a Killing." Then, two Reboots! First, 1995's "Get Shorty," a Los Angeles movie. Then 1974's "The Taking of Pelham 123," a New York movie. It's always good to get together with friends.
