Screen Cleaning

What to get the family for Christmas? Well if you're anything like Jeff and Cole, it will probably be movie related. With no family appropriate movies new to theaters this week, we talk about a new DVD release just in time for the holidays, Mission: Impossible - Fallout. In case you missed the sixth movie in theaters (or any of the first five too) we give a recap and share some of our favorite moments from the franchise. What are your favorite mask reveals, cold opens, or practical stunts? Also we update you on entertainment news this week, including a movie anniversary, and ask when early is too early for Christmas music.

Happy Black Friday, what are you going to buy? A staple in my house every Christmas was a new board game. We ended up with quite a few, but not as many as frequent contributor, author, comic nerd, and board game expert Jacob Gowans. He and Jeff have a conversation about what makes a good game and good gaming etiquette to be reminded of before this holiday season of gathering around the Monopoly board. Jacob and Jeff then go head to head in game trivia with a movie twist. Also Thanksgiving is a big box office time of the year and we review three movies out this week Robin Hood, Green Book, and Creed II. We're getting you ready for the holiday push on Screen Cleaning. Batteries not included.

It’s a golden age of prestige television. Netflix, AMC, HBO, and others are all coming out with some of the best reviewed dramas and sit-coms of all time. So are we getting spoiled, and is it possible to enjoy old TV shows again? Jeff and Cole did the research and watched older shows that they hadn’t seen before or watched when they were kids; all to find out if they hold up to the modern standard. Also Jeff reviews a modern show that he believes will stand the test of time in Panning for Good, and they give their opinions on two movie sequels out this weekend Wreck It Ralph 2 and Fantastic Beasts 2. I wonder if our show will stand the test of time...

They say that you can never go home, but that never stops Hollywood from trying to revisit old concepts. Since we talk about good on Screen Cleaning we searched far and wide for remakes that are better than the original. Jeff and Cole are joined by Rod Gustafson of Parent Previews and the Lisa Valentine Clark show on BYU Radio. TV isn't immune to the remake trend and often fans clamor for a show to be 'saved' to another network or streaming service. But be careful what you wish for. We focus on a few of the shows that have had success in their later iterations, but they are the exception not the rule. Also Jeff gives his review of the new (and early for the Holiday season) release Illumination's Dr. Seuss' The Grinch, and Producer Mickey mediates the fight for who gets to review Harry Potter next week.

The boys of fall just finished, but the NBA and NHL just started, and the NFL is in full swing. Ocotber is the only month of the year where all four major US sports play so here at Screen Cleaning we turn our screens to the sports channels today. Live sports are linked with music. Baseball is famous for Take Me Out to the Ballgame. Every home team has their own traditions and songs that can get the fans going. Bryce Lake is the guy behind all that music for BYU and he visits the show today to share some of his experiences and favorite songs. He also agrees to play a little Name-That-Tune with a sports-y twist. Also Jeff and Rod Gustafson share their reviews of two new movies out today, Bohemian Rhapsody and The Nutcracker and the Four Realms, and Producer Mickey educates us on a famous movie sound effect we're sure you've heard before.
