Hi there! Jeff saw the new Christopher Nolan movie 'Tenet', and isn't sure if he liked it or not. In fact, he's not even sure if he knows what the movie was about! The DC Fandome event happened last weekend, and a lot of great stuff came out of it... including the first trailer for 'The Batman'. And this week, ahead of its release this weekend on Netflix, I started watching the show that continues the story of The Karate Kid: 'Cobra Kai'. It's incredible! - Brett

I'll tell you if it holds up with someone seeing it for the first time ever. - Brett
