After another absolutely loaded week in entertainment media, TJ breaks out the "mega mini review" format to give a glimpse at 4 of the most interesting series/movies/games to release. First, Angelyne (or really Emmy Rossum) catches TJ's eye as he gives a review of the Peacock original limited series based on the "billboard queen" of 1980s Los Angeles. Next, a terrifying feature from A24 and Alex Garland, Men, creates a stir in more ways than you might expect. Third, a video game franchise that is making a bit of a resurgence takes the stage as TJ gives first impressions of Vampire: The Masquerade - Swansong, a branched story-based RPG set in the stylish world of Vampiric Boston. Last, but certainly not least, a brief overview of Chip N Dale's return to the screen in the Disney+ exclusive Rescue Rangers.

It's a double dose of Stephen King as TJ dives into not one, but two theatrical depictions of King's novel "Firestarter". Spoilers are sprinkled throughout as TJ first details the events of the 1984 film starring a young Drew Barrymore before shifting to a review and comparison of the next Drew Barry... in the recent release of the 2022 version starring Zac Efron. You better have burn heal!

We're doubling down on movies in this episode as TJ explores two of the names most synonymous with cinema: Harry Potter and Nicolas Cage. First TJ and Richard play "Good Cage, Bad Cage", trading summaries and recaps of Nicolas Cage movies from two opposites ends of the quality spectrum. Then TJ is joined by social media tournament creator, BrianBrackets, a returning guest on the show. The two give their thoughts on the Harry Potter movie franchise and share a "consensus" ranking composed of their own individual rankings, the Rotten Tomatoes critic score, and the Rotten Tomatoes audience score. If magic and chaos is your thing... well episode 203 was literally about leprechauns and final fantasy... BUT ALSO there's this episode!

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA BEARSSSSSSS. It's the time of year that brings equal amounts of optimism and speculation: the NFL Draft. TJ takes the time to review new Chicago Bears GM Ryan Poles' first draft class, giving each individual pick a way-too-early grade and the class as a whole. Did Poles do enough to address the Bears' offense and put Justin Fields in a position to succeed? Give the episode a listen for a pick by pick breakdown and find out if TJ feels better or worse about the team from here.
