“I realize this is gonna sound funny coming from someone that just spent a lot of time kicking your face... but you can trust me.” – Buffy Summers

Back this week with the next four episodes of Season 3. Lots happening in these four episodes, from the return of Spike and a new Watcher to a good old homecoming queen battle. We also see the start of one of the storylines that many fans have always disliked. We’ll discuss all four episodes and where things might be taking us.

How We Seeez It! Episode 348: Spider-Man: Brand New Day

“Hey, you guys are the professionals, I'm just a volunteer.” – Spider-Man

Tom Holland is back as that friendly neighborhood hero we all love. This story continues the life and times of Peter Parker after all memory of him was erased in the last movie.

How We Seeez It! Episode 347: Stand By Me (1986)

“We talked into the night. The kind of talk that seemed important until you discover girls.” – The Writer

For this episode, we are going back 40 years to take a look at Rob Reiner’s adaptation of the Stephen King story about four pre-teen boys and their bonding adventure. A great coming-of-age story that will have you thinking about your own relationships with friends from the past.

We are back to continue with Season 3 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. In this episode, we are covering the first four episodes of the season.

How We Seeez It! Episode 345.5: The Odyssey Monologues (2026)

“I’m a stubborn fan of his stubbornness.” – Steve

With Noah away, Steve takes the mic for a rare, shorter solo episode to talk about Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey. From the overwhelming IMAX experience and Nolan’s famously stubborn filmmaking style to John Leguizamo’s standout performance, a heartbreaking 20-year-old dog, disturbing body horror, and a little satisfaction over the failed casting backlash, there is plenty to unpack.

How We Seeez It! Episode 345: The Sheep Detectives (2026)

“For, like humans, they cherish belonging above all. They allow themselves to belong to us. And so, we find we belong to them.” – Rebecca Hampstead

The Sheep Detectives is a family-friendly movie that offers a good mix of comedy and mystery. With emotional moments, strong voice acting, and impressive CGI, this movie will keep you engaged. It is based on the German novel by Leonie Swann and has been praised for its unexpected emotional depth and visual effects. Have a listen to seeez what we think about it.

How We Seeez It! Episode 344: Big Trouble in Little China (1986)

“When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, looks you crooked in the eye, and asks if you’ve paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye and remember what ol’ Jack Burton always says at a time like that: ‘Have ya paid your dues, Jack?’ ‘Yessir, the check is in the mail.’” — Jack Burton

John Carpenter’s urban fantasy action-adventure turns 40 this year. Starring Kurt Russell and set in San Francisco’s Chinatown, Big Trouble in Little China was released in 1986 without the fanfare it deserved. It wasn’t the hit it should have been, but it found a devoted audience during the home-video era and eventually became a cult classic.

Not only is it incredibly rewatchable, but repeated viewings may be required to fully understand its greatness. Join us as we discuss the movie, its wonderfully strange world, and why Jack Burton may not be quite the hero he thinks he is.

“There’s no use arguing with me. Do you see my resolve face? You’ve seen it before. You know what it means.” – Willow Rosenberg

Season 2 comes to an end with a great two-episode finale: Episode 21 and Episode 22, Becoming: Part 1 and Part 2. So much happens in these two episodes, not only helping wrap up Season 2 and the evil Angel arc, but also setting up Season 3 so well. We cover our thoughts on it, and there is so much to talk about in this one, so join us for the discussion. And don’t forget about our cocktails for this episode. There are some good ones.

How We Seeez It! Episode 342: Independence Day (1996)

“You really think you can do all that bullshit you just said?” – Captain Steven Hiller

Summer blockbusters and July just go hand in hand. Back in 1996, we got a taste of that with this one. Released on July 3, 1996, Independence Day became the year’s top-grossing film. It is a worldwide fight for humanity’s continued existence — even if most of that fight is shown from the United States — and we follow a few key players as they battle against the invasion.

We cover our thoughts on it, and there is so much to talk about with this one, so join us for the discussion. And don’t forget about our cocktails for this episode. There are some good ones.

Back to the theater for a box office release — the first in 8 years for the Star Wars franchise. After 3 (and a half) seasons on Disney Channel, The Mandalorian and Grogu makes the jump to the big screen. Does it live up to the hype, or is it a money grab by Disney?
