Mostly Film — Goats, Bone Temples, and Mercy

This week on Mostly Film, we’re back in trailer court for another round of LIST IT or NIX IT — deciding what earns a spot on the watchlist and what gets left behind.

On the docket:
Pressure, Toy Story 5, Peaky Blinders, Over Your Dead Body, Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, Slanted, Normal, Is God Is, and Beast. Some immediate adds. Some firm passes. A few heated debates.

Then we dive into What We’ve Been Watching. Jonathan checks in with GOAT, Mercy, and 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, plus TV time with The Pitt. JP brings a mix of rewatches and first-timers — The Goblet of Fire, L.A. Confidential, and Mercy — alongside TV staples like Industry, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, Sons of Anarchy, and yes, more Pitt. We talk about performances, tone, and what’s actually sticking with us right now.

And then… The News.

It’s a packed one:

• Tributes to Tom Noonan and Eric Dane

• Scary Movie 6 parody targets revealed (including A Quiet Place)

• Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein and KPOP: Demon Hunters heading to the Criterion Collection

• Marty Supreme tying a BAFTA record (and not the good kind)

• Netflix’s potential Warner Bros. acquisition plan (and what it would mean for theaters)

• Plane 2 officially grounded

• Bad Bunny’s first lead role

• Bill Hader writing/directing a new horror film

• McKenna Grace as Daphne in live-action Scooby-Doo

• And yes… Martin Scorsese joining The Mandalorian & Grogu

It’s prestige, pulp, industry shakeups, and franchise chaos all in one episode.
