In the 137th episode of the Extra Buttery podcast, Jason and Robert open with a long discussion about the pros and cons of the Oscars moving to YouTube. We then discuss why THE RUNNING MAN (15:13) was a flop (that maybe didn't deserve to flop). We then focus on the understated family drama from Joachim Trier in SENTIMENTAL VALUE (30:27), the George Clooney-driven JAY KELLY (37:11), yet another effective action thriller in the Predator franchise from Dan Trachtenberg's PREDATOR: BADLANDS (49:36), and close out with Rian Johnson's WAKE UP DEAD MAN (1:01:13)Original theme music, intro, and outro composed and performed by Michael Spicer

In the 135th episode of The Extra Buttery Podcast, Jason and Robert reunite in Vancouver once again and welcome back special guest Marina Bennett to discuss Darren Aronofsky's newest film CAUGHT STEALING. Austin Butler stars as washed-up baseball prospect caught up between rival gangs. But does Matt Smith steal the show? Are Liev Schreiber and Vincent D'Onofrio the Hasidic gangsters we never knew we needed?

In the second part of the blockbuster 134th episode of The Extra Buttery Podcast, Robert and Jason begin with the very formulaic but still thrilling F1: THE MOVIE (1:20) before the meat (hehe) of the episode with JURASSIC WORLD: REBIRTH (12:49), exploring how truly lame and uninteresting the famed dinosaur franchise has become.

In the first part of the blockbuster 134th episode of The Extra Buttery Podcast, Robert and Jason discuss the latest SUPERMAN (4:44) from James Gunn, the hard left turn it takes from the previous iterations, and how Krypto the Superdog takes over. The superhero conversation continues with the newest entry in the exhaustive MCU with THE FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS (45:11) and reasons why it might not be the big clobberin' hit Marvel needs to revive moviegoers from superhero fatigue.

In the 133rd episode of the Extra Buttery Podcast, Robert surprises Jason with news about a sequel to ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD, which will NOT be directed by Quentin Tarantino, and the potential return of the fantastic MINDHUNTERS. We start with MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - THE FINAL RECKONING (or is it Dead Reckoning Part 2?) (8:43) and why the series doesn't end with the bang you're expecting; the brilliant once-in-a-lifetime ANDOR (35:40); Robert's lukewarm reception to the THE PHOENICIAN SCHEME (50:07) despite being a big Wes Anderson fan; romantic drama THE MATERIALISTS (56:49), Celine Song's follow-up to the critically-acclaimed PAST LIVES; and FROM THE WORLD OF JOHN WICK: BALLERINA (1:03:39), which may or may not lead to a bigger cinematic Wick-ervese.

In the 132nd episode of the Extra Buttery Podcast, Jason and Robert wonder how the TV adaptation of Harry Potter will be received and how different it will be from the movies. They also catch up on arguably the best Star Wars show ever, ANDOR (8:41), and the latest season of THE LAST OF US (24:05). Both also agree that THUNDERBOLTS* (35:20) is a nice addition to the MCU before finishing with Ryan Coogler's excellent SINNERS (46:25), Rob's top pick spy thriller BLACK BAG (55:14), pseudo-superhero-action-turned-buddy-comedy THE ACCOUNTANT 2 (1:01:45) and share why WARFARE (1:06:16) falls short of director Alex Garland's previous work.

In the 131st episode of the Extra Buttery podcast, Jason and Robert welcome special guest Marina Bennett and take a deep dive into Bong Joon-Ho's MICKEY 17. What was Bong trying to say and why didn't it work? Were our expectations too high? Do Mark Ruffalo's veneers deserve a Best Actor nomination?! What was Ylfa's obsession with Creeper sauce?!? So many, many things to discuss.
