Laser Focus

Jurassic World: Rebirth made a lot of money at the box office, just like the previous Jurassic World movies, but nobody seems to like it or them. So how did the franchise that began in 1993 with Jurassic Park get to this point? Kyle seeks to answer that question this week with Adam Murray, who has spent a lot of time researching all things Jurassic.

Look up! Or, wherever you want to. But listen up because Kyle welcomes Eric Diaz and Dan Casey to discuss James Gunn's Superman, full of spoilers and everything. Did it live up to expectations? Is the DC Universe in good shape? And is Krypto the best bad dog or the worst good dog?

This week, Kyle welcomes a new member to Laser Focus' Three-Timers' Club: writer, performer, video essayist Maggie Mae Fish! In addition to discussing her new Nebula exclusive series Amy's Dead-End Dreamhouse, Maggie and Kyle also get down on some shared media therapy. Raised on kids TV that never told us how being a grown up would super suck. Also there's talk of horror movies, naturally.

This week, Kyle has Superman on the brain. Ahead of James Gunn's live-action film, Kyle welcomes back Eric Diaz to talk about Superman: The Animated Series, still arguably the best and most influential version of Superman on screen. Best episodes, best casting, best villains, and that's just the beginning!

This week, Kyle welcomes back Head Over Feels co-founder Sage Young to continue their exhaustive retrospective of The X-Files. This time, it's seasons 5 and 6 and the first movie, The X-Files: Fight the Future. And that's it! Enjoy.

This week, Kyle and Mikey discuss Steven Spielberg's Jaws which turns 50 this year. It was the movie that spawned the term "Blockbuster," is one of the greatest movies ever made, and might just be the most perfect summer movie in history. We're all gonna need a bigger boat!

It's episode 100! To celebrate, Kyle welcomes writer, author, and podcaster Rosie Knight to discuss her work writing Godzilla comics, including a story starring Doug the kaiju in Legendary's Monsterverse Declassified. And because it's episode 100, they also talk about Batman Forever a little bit.

The Ncuti Gatwa era of Doctor Who has ended abruptly and surprisingly. Tai Gooden is back to talk to Kyle about how weird the second Disney+ season was and about a season finale that ended up being a regeneration story nobody saw coming. Also, why is Billie Piper there?!

This week, Kyle welcomes freelancer writer and film and TV critic Ariel Kling to discuss The Last of Us season 2. How well does the show adapt the controversial second game? Does it work as well as the first season? And what on earth will they do next season?

We have one last Andor treat for everyone as Kyle gets in the weeks on the series with creator Tony Gilroy. Mr. Gilroy discusses how Kleya is actually Luthen's boss, how Syril is misunderstood (kinda), and how Dedra might have had the worst fate of anybody. Next week, something else!
