What an amazing summer?! The BIGGEST box office season of all time gave us Heroes (Odysseus/ Spider Man/He-Man), killer villains (Obsession/The Furious/Colony) and one of the worst entries ever in a beloved franchise (Sorry, Evil Dead, but it's time to put 'er down). Join us for one last look at summer 2026.

On this episode, the SCF team discuss our favorite film soundtracks of the last quarter century.
