“Eternity” has landed, and A24 Studios once again aims straight for the heart—and hits it, hard. Miles Teller, Elizabeth Olsen, and Caleb Turner star in a thought-provoking rom-com-meets-sci-fi fantasy that’s sure to spark some strong feelings (and maybe a few tears). Directed by the talented David Franey, this film had our hosts feeling every emotion under the sun—especially outrage! (In the best possible way.)

From the witty writing to divine performances by Divine Joy Randolph and John Early Ryan, “Eternity” keeps you guessing (and gasping). What happens when the afterlife hands you a second chance at love—and you have eternity to get it right or epically wrong?

Expect laughs, some intense snapping (the juicy twin kind!), and debates about the choices we’d make in love and eternity. Did Elizabeth Olsen choose the wrong Olsen sister to handle her love triangle? Will our hosts forgive her questionable afterlife decisions? And most importantly—why is everybody crying (and why are the theaters suddenly out of tissues)?

Tune in for savage, sassy commentary, thought-provoking takes, and a dive into the messy morals of eternal love. Spoiler alert: Our hosts have a LOT to say. 

 Rating: 4 Juicy Twin Snaps!

 Spoilers included, so grab your popcorn and tissues!

MAN ON FILM:🍿 ZOOTOPIA 2 MOVIE REVIEW

“Zootopia 2: The Movie That Made Me Ask… ‘Wait, Should Animals Be Dating?’ ”

ZOOTOPIA 2 Fresh-out-the-DISNEY-oven, Thanksgiving-weekend heavyweight: - directed by Jared Bush and starring Jason Bateman, Ginnifer Goodwin, and enough adorable animals to fill Noah’s Ark twice.

But listen…

Join me as we spotlight

Some interesting things.

And I came out with questions, not trauma.

This episode covers:

 The new MAN ON FILM grading system (A–F, like school — but funnier)

 Why Zootopia 2 gets a solid C

 How Disney somehow made a buddy-cop world feel like an episode of The Bachelor: Animal Kingdom

 A lamb villain who returns like she’s auditioning for “Thanos: The Musical”

 A fox and a bunny with chemistry so spicy I had to check if this movie was PG-13

 And the moment I realized Disney might just be trolling us in 4K

Don’t get me wrong — Mouse House, if you’re listening, I love you.

I adore you.

I would work for you.

I will even wear the Mickey ears in the office orientation video.

This is all comedy. I promise.

(Put me in Marvel. I’ll behave. Maybe.)

FINAL GRADE:

Zootopia 2 gets a C = Cute, Colorful, and Could’ve Given Me a Little More Plot, Babe.

Three tight, well-manicured SNAPS.

If you disagree?

Great. Come argue with me.

That’s half the fun.

Because here on MAN ON FILM, in the great courtroom of popcorn and opinions…

I’m the Judge of the Ark.

And it’s raining men, baby.

 Zootopia 2

 MAN ON FILM

 Press play. Laugh. Explain to your kids why those animals were flirting.

Title: MAN ON FILM — The Running Man Review (2025)

Subtitle: Nostalgia vs. New Wave: Glenn Powell, Stephen King, and the chaos in between.

Description:

Welcome back to Man on Film, the only movie show that says what you’re actually thinking. In this episode, we break down the brand-new Running Man remake — the good, the bad, the bizarre morality, and the way Stephen King clearly grabbed the steering wheel back from the 80s.

From surprise cameos and Claire-Huxtable-energy strangers in the theater, to corporate dystopias, messy ethics, and Glenn Powell’s towel scene sending shockwaves through the audience, this episode delivers everything. We battle out the final score (3.5 out of 5 futuristic snaps), compare it to the original Schwarzenegger classic, and debate whether reinventing a cult favorite is genius… or grounds for cinematic jail time.

Featuring:

– Our 5-mic rating system

– A passionate debate about adaptation vs. nostalgia

– Why Lee Pace and Coleman Domingo stole the whole damn movie

– Thoughts on dystopian logic, moral compasses gone missing, and deepfake manipulation

– The moment that had the whole theater screaming “DEEPFAKE!”

– And yes… the Karen-in-the-car monologue

If you loved the original Running Man, if you’re curious about the remake, or if you just love unapologetically honest film talk — this is the episode you need.

In this savage first episode of Man on Film, host Andre Xcellence! dives into The Smashing Machine — the intense A24 drama starring Dwayne Johnson as MMA legend Mark Kerr. With striking performances, emotional punches, and some glaring structural flaws, this biopic hits hard… but does it hit right?

Andre breaks down the story, the real-life roots, what worked, and what dragged it down. He asks the hard questions: Was this a passion project or a power move? Did A24 undersell it? And does The Rock finally find vulnerability — or just another role that leaves more to be desired?

Rating: 3 out of 5.

It slaps in places, but sometimes it just smashes itself.

Step into the shadows with this sharp, hilarious, and surprisingly emotional review of The Black Phone 2 — a film that dares to blend trauma, telephones, and terror into one twisted trip.

In this episode, Xcellence teams up with his ever-dramatic and stylishly skeptical cohost, Mr. Carvaggio, for a cinematic takedown (or is it a redemption?) of one of the most anticipated horror sequels of the year.

Together, they ask the big questions:

• Did the ghost of Ethan Hawke leave enough room for a real plot?
• Are kids still the creepiest part of horror?
• And most importantly… how would you answer the phone from the other side ON A LAKE AT 1AM?
• DID FREDDY KRUGER AND JASON VOORHEES ASK FOR THEIR POWERS & MOVIE PLOTS BACK?! 🤔🤡☠️☠️☠️🎙🎙🔥🚨🚨🚨😒😒🫠

This isn’t your typical film review — it’s art critique meets pop culture drag meets spirit realm roast. Equal parts shade and insight, expect laughs, light reads, and some hard truths about horror, Hollywood, and healing through the screen.
