Join Tara, Adam, & Dave, industry insiders clinging onto the lower rungs of the Hollywood ladder, as they compare a new release to an older, nearly forgotten movie.

If you love the big-name, big-budget movies and the little-known movies that you think everybody must see, then you’ll want to get to know what People Also Watched…!

"Star Monster" by Duncan Neilson, engineered by Drew Canulette.

Tara, John & Dave travel to Granite City *cough* gotham *cough* to see if we can get the oldest superhero in town to yell at us for being on his lawn!

He’s been a grumpy old boxer! He’s been a grumpy old Vet! Now he’s a grumpy old superhero AND super villain!?! It’s Sylvester Stallone in SAMARITAN!

Here’s the Rapid Recap to catch you up!

Thirteen-year-old Sam Cleary (Javon Walton) suspects that his mysterious and reclusive neighbor Mr. Smith (Sylvester Stallone) is actually a legend hiding in plain sight. Twenty years ago, Granite City's super-powered vigilante, Samaritan, was reported dead after a fiery warehouse battle with his rival, and twin brother, Nemesis. Most believe Samaritan perished in the fire, but some in the city, like Sam, have hope that he is still alive. With crime on the rise and the city on the brink of chaos, Sam makes it his mission to coax his neighbor out of hiding to save the city from ruin and be a good SAMARATIN!

First there was Predator. Then Predator 2. Then Predators. Then The Predator. In this latest installment 20th Century went against Horror movie sequel naming conventions (see Scream and Halloween) and came up with a completely new title - PREY!

Here’s the Rapid Recap to catch you up!

In the Predator franchises’ 5th movie (if you don’t count the Alien Vs. Predator series) we go back in time to 1719 and the Northern Great Plains to witness the creature’s very first visit to Earth. This time the Predator has its sights set on Naru, a skilled female Comanche warrior who fights against misogyny, fur-trappers, and of course, the Alien Hunter. But when the two go at it, who is the hunted and who is really the PREY? Ah-ha! Worked the name of the movie right in there! It’s Prey everybody!

What if John Wick were a woman and instead of gun play, there was a lot of sword play? No one was asking for it, but Hulu answers that question anyway in the direct to streaming action movie – THE PRINCESS!

Here’s how —IMDB describes the movie:

When a strong-willed princess (played by Joey King) refuses to wed Julius, a cruel sociopath (cruelly played by Dominic Cooper), the princess is locked in a remote tower of her father’s castle. With her vindictive suitor intent on taking her father’s thrown, the princess must save the kingdom.

Tara, Adam & Dave feel the need, the need for speed! Nope, not Top Gun: Maverick – it’s SONIC THE HEDGEHOG 2!

Here’s how —IMDB describes the movie:

After settling in Green Hills, Sonic (voiced by Ben Schwartz) is ready for more freedom, and Tom (James Marsden) and Maddie (Tika Sumpter) agree to leave him home while they go on vacation. But, no sooner are they gone, when Dr. Robotnik (Jim Carrey) comes back, this time with a new partner, Knuckles (Idris Elba), in search for an emerald that has the power to both build and destroy civilizations. Sonic teams up with his own sidekick, Tails (Colleen O'Shaughnessey
), and together they embark on a journey to find the emerald before it falls into the wrong hands.
