July 15, 2025We Are "Paid To Give Positive Movie Reviews?"
The Truth about Paid Movie Reviews, Influencers, Premieres, & Legalities.
After our Superman Movie Review (2025) and loving a lot of what we saw, the comments came rolling in — “shills,” “WB paycheck,” “of course you liked it, you were invited.” So in this episode, we’re diving into what it really means to be an influencer or critic in 2025 and the blurring line between genuine reaction, media access, and marketing.
Start your online business with a $1 per-month trial when you visit https://www.shopify.com/rejects!
We break down what it actually looks like to attend premieres, get screeners, and review movies as YouTubers and personalities. Spoiler alert: if we were paid to give a positive review, we'd legally have to disclose it — every single time. We discuss the FTC guidelines, the evolution from traditional criticism to the current critic/creator/influencer hybrid, and the strange era we’re in now where if you like a movie, you’re “paid,” and if you don’t, you’re “grifting.”
We unpack the emotional and mental gymnastics around movie discourse: the trust gap, the pressure to be entertaining, the conspiracy theories around studios “buying” reactions, and what it’s really like when your job overlaps with your fandom.
This isn’t just about Superman 2025 — it’s about the entire culture of content creation, criticism, authenticity, and what the internet now expects from anyone with a voice in film. Whether you trust us, question us, or are still figuring it out — this is the real conversation that’s been needing to happen.

After watching the James Gunn versions of Scooby-Doo (2002) & Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed, it’s time for a totally different vibe—one of the most beloved, darker takes on Mystery Inc. ever: Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island! Greg Alba and Aaron Alexander dive into this cult classic from 1998, which redefined what a Scooby-Doo movie could be. Produced by Hanna-Barbera and Warner Bros. Animation, Zombie Island brings Fred, Daphne, Velma, Shaggy, and Scooby back together for a reunion that quickly turns into a spine-tingling supernatural mystery—this time, the monsters are real.
We react to the darker animation style, gothic atmosphere, and surprisingly mature themes that took fans by storm. From the creepy New Orleans setting to the terrifying cat creatures, voodoo lore, and unforgettable twist with Simone and Lena, this film is a fan-favorite for a reason. We break down the story, voice cast (Billy West, Mary Kay Bergman, Frank Welker, B.J. Ward, Scott Innes), and how Zombie Island led the charge for a series of darker Scooby-Doo animated films. Plus: how it compares to James Gunn's live-action movies, what makes it so effective, and why it’s still a go-to Halloween rewatch.

THE SMURFS TAKE ON THE BIG APPLE!! The Smurfs Full Reaction Watch Along: / thereelrejects
Start your online business with a $1 per-month trial when you visit https://www.shopify.com/rejects!
With Rihanna starring in the upcoming 2025 Smurfs Reboot, we're giving our THE SMURFS (2011) Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis & Spoiler Review!!
Aaron Alexander and John Humphrey go full blue in this nostalgic deep dive into The Smurfs (2011), the live-action/CGI hybrid comedy directed by Raja Gosnell (Scooby-Doo, Beverly Hills Chihuahua). Based on the beloved Belgian comic and 1980s animated series, this family adventure catapults the tiny blue creatures from their peaceful village into the chaos of modern-day New York City after they escape the evil sorcerer Gargamel through a magical portal.
The film features a talented voice cast led by Jonathan Winters (Mork & Mindy, The Flintstones) as the wise Papa Smurf, Katy Perry (pop superstar, Jeremy Scott: The People’s Designer) as the sweet and sassy Smurfette, George Lopez (Rio, The George Lopez Show) as Grouchy, Alan Cumming (X2: X-Men United, The Good Wife) as Gutsy, Anton Yelchin (Star Trek, Alpha Dog) as Clumsy, Fred Armisen (Saturday Night Live, Portlandia) as Brainy, and Paul Reubens (Pee-wee’s Big Adventure) as Jokey.
On the human side, Neil Patrick Harris (How I Met Your Mother, A Series of Unfortunate Events) stars as Patrick Winslow, a marketing executive who helps the Smurfs find their way back home, with Jayma Mays (Glee, Red Eye) as his supportive wife, and Hank Azaria (The Simpsons, Godzilla) fully embracing the role of the villainous Gargamel in a delightfully over-the-top performance. Sofia Vergara (Modern Family) also appears as Patrick’s demanding boss.
Packed with slapstick comedy, magical hijinks, and heartwarming moments, the film includes memorable scenes like the Smurfs causing chaos in FAO Schwarz, Gargamel's frantic chase through Central Park, and Papa Smurf’s touching leadership that anchors the team. Whether you grew up with the classic cartoons or are discovering these characters for the first time, The Smurfs delivers a colorful, family-friendly ride.

Tara & Aaron return to the high seas to give their PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: DEAD MAN’S CHEST Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis & Spoiler Review!!
Tara Erickson and Aaron Alexander set sail for a swashbuckling adventure in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest, the blockbuster sequel to Disney’s Curse of the Black Pearl, directed by Gore Verbinski. Johnny Depp (Edward Scissorhands, Sweeney Todd) returns in his iconic, Oscar-nominated role as Captain Jack Sparrow, who finds himself indebted to the dreaded Davy Jones—captain of the ghostly Flying Dutchman—and must retrieve the legendary Dead Man’s Chest to save his soul.
Orlando Bloom (The Lord of the Rings, Kingdom of Heaven) reprises his role as Will Turner, who joins Jack on his quest while dealing with family revelations, including the fate of his father Bootstrap Bill, played by Stellan Skarsgård (Chernobyl, Dune). Keira Knightley (Pride & Prejudice, Atonement) returns as Elizabeth Swann, now entangled in political intrigue and pirate peril. Bill Nighy (Love Actually, Underworld) delivers a chilling performance as Davy Jones, brought to life through groundbreaking motion-capture and visual effects. Naomie Harris (Moonlight, No Time to Die) appears as Tia Dalma, the mysterious sea witch with a deep connection to Jones.
From the thrilling Kraken attacks and Jack’s iconic escape from the cannibal tribe, to the three-way sword fight on the giant spinning waterwheel, this film is packed with some of the franchise’s most famous and highly searched action sequences. The visual effects and Hans Zimmer’s sweeping score helped Dead Man’s Chest become one of the highest-grossing films of all time and a fan favorite within the series.
Tara and Aaron dive into the film’s most epic moments, character arcs, and legacy, while reflecting on how it holds up nearly two decades later!

The Naked Gun: From The Files Of The Police Squad Full Reaction Watch Along: / thereelrejects
With The Seth Macfarlane & Liam Neeson Naked Gun Reboot Sequel releasing it's time for The Naked Gun Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis, & Spoiler Review! Aaron Alexander & Andrew Gordon dive headfirst into the hilariously absurd world of The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! (1988), directed by comedy legend David Zucker and written by the Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker trio (Airplane!, Top Secret!). This slapstick classic stars Leslie Nielsen as the iconic, deadpan Detective Frank Drebin, alongside Priscilla Presley as Jane Spencer, Ricardo Montalbán as the villainous Vincent Ludwig, George Kennedy as Captain Ed Hocken, and O.J. Simpson as unlucky Officer Nordberg. We break down some of the film’s most unforgettable gags—like the Queen of England baseball scene, Frank’s chaotic press conference, the “safe sex” full-body condom bit, and the hospital “he’s going to be all right” line that still kills. From banana peels to bee attacks, malfunctioning microphones to exploding opera singers—this movie is the definition of rapid-fire comedy and visual gags. We talk about the legacy of the Naked Gun franchise, its roots in Police Squad! (the short-lived but beloved TV series), and how this movie helped cement Leslie Nielsen as a comedy icon after years in dramatic roles. Whether you're revisiting this '80s gem or watching it for the first time, join us as we laugh ourselves silly and celebrate one of the most quotable and rewatchable comedies of all time—especially with Liam Neeson set to reboot The Naked Gun soon under Paramount and Seth MacFarlane!

Stranger Things Season 3 Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis, & Spoiler Review! John Humphrey & Tara Erickson dive into Episode 3 “The Case of the Missing Lifeguard” and Episode 4 “The Sauna Test,” breaking down the eerie Mind Flayer possession of lifeguard Heather and Billy (Dacre Montgomery), the disturbing dinner scene with Heather’s parents, and Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) teaming up with Max (Sadie Sink) to psychically spy on Billy. They explore the intense “sauna test” where the group tries to expose Billy’s connection to the Upside Down using extreme heat, resulting in a violent, terrifying attack that confirms their worst fears. Meanwhile, Steve (Joe Keery), Dustin (Gaten Matarazzo), and Robin (Maya Hawke) continue investigating the secret Russian transmissions, leading to their discovery of a hidden elevator and underground base beneath Starcourt Mall. Joyce (Winona Ryder) and Hopper (David Harbour) return to Hawkins Lab, uncovering evidence that the Russians may be reopening the gate. The tension builds as the Mind Flayer's control over the town grows, and the kids begin to suspect that Heather and Billy are just the beginning. From El’s blindfold scene to Billy’s possessed rampage and the first look at the creature’s grotesque body horror — we break it all down in full detail with emotional reactions and fan theories for what’s coming next.
