Off The Break Podcast

The Meg is pure self-aware and over-the-top fun and The Academy opens up a total can of worms with their woefully misguided "Best Popular Film" category. 

Spoiler-y discussions on Christopher Robin and The Spy Who Dumped Me, followed by yet another MoviePass update (including the news that they're apparently still trying to break into the distribution business) as well as the Johnny Depp lead Biggie Smalls investigation film City of Lies getting pulled from the release schedule......

In which the silly old bear brings out the best in everyone, The Darkest Minds seems to want to combine multiple dead horses, and Kyle is sick once again. 

A spoilerific discussion of Mission: Impossible - Fallout kicks things off before getting into MoviePass having to face the music, and the nostalgic pull of Christopher Robin proves too strong to resist. 

Two out of three of us caught early shows for Mission: Impossible - Fallout, MoviePass literally ran out of money, and now Robert De Niro of Dirty Grandpa fame could be joining Joaquin Phoenix's Joker movie?

Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again beats out Denzel Washington's first ever sequel (Equalizer 2), Erik and Kyle attempt to describe Sorry To Bother You, and we all throw in our two cents regarding the James Gunn firing controversy and the various precedents it may be setting. 

Kyle, back from the dead, joins our discussion on Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, a giant Jeff Goldblum is erected outside London Tower Bridge, and Johnny Depp's downward spiral is addressed. 

With a man down, Codi gives her Skyscraper first impressions, we discuss why Joaquin Phoenix as the Joker in a smaller budgeted stand alone film could be a good thing, and we question the necessity of a Black Widow movie that honestly feels way late too the party. 

Codi's Ant-Man and The Wasp theory turns out incorrect (to her displeasure), The First Purge is the lowest opening entry in the franchise, and after Codi misremembers Keri Russell's past roles, a debate about her being Rey's mom in Episode IX ensues. 

With Codi out of the office, we try not to be too harsh on Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, Leonardo DiCaprio gives us a glimpse at himself and Brad Pitt's godly jawline in costume for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, and the Beautiful Boy is just heartbreaking.
