In this episode of Movie Postmortem, we revisit I, Robot, the 2004 sci-fi thriller that asked, "What if your smart home wanted you dead?"

We break down the 'Causes of Death or Causes for Celebration' and offer our 'Script Stitch-Ups' to improve the story. That's something AI can't do...at least for now!

In this episode of Movie Postmortem, we attempt to make sense of Moonfall, Roland Emmerich’s 2022 disasterpiece.

We break down the 'Causes of Death or Causes for Celebration' and offer our 'Script Stitch-Ups' to make the moon’s descent a little less ridiculous. Tune in for Part 1 of this two part discussion!

In this episode of Movie Postmortem, Reggie and Isaiah revisit War of the Worlds—Steven Spielberg’s 2005 adaptation of the classic alien invasion story.

In this episode of Movie Postmortem, Reggie and Isaiah revisit Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen—the sequel that took everything from the first movie and cranked it up to 11… for better or worse.

We break down the 'Causes of Death or Causes for Celebration' and offer our 'Script Stitch-Ups' to salvage the Bayhem. Tune in!
