Is there anything better than being really, truly surprised by a movie? Could I have imagined a world where Final Destination Bloodlines placed itself in the running for the “Best of 2025” list and also damn near made me cry along the way? No, but here we are. What a surprise. Enjoy!

We all know that Marvel has had kind of a tough time lately. All of their movies feel like carbon copies of better Marvel movies that came before. Thunderbolts* had the advantage of being full of characters that people don’t really care about that much. Nothing to lose, everything to gain. Enjoy!

This is a movie that I cannot get out of my head. The way it was shot, the music, the acting, the message…absolutely amazing. I care more about you going to see this movie than I do you listening to this podcast, but if you also enjoyed Sinners, and want to listen to us gush about how much we liked it, we will be here. Enjoy!

The perfect double feature does exist…it just may not be these two movies. Or maybe it is these two movies. Yeah…this is probably as good as it gets. Enjoy!

No need to mince words, this is one of the worst movies we’ve seen in a long time. (please know that the “we” mentioned above does not reflect the views of Roy King, who “kinda liked” this movie)Enjoy!

It’s March, the Oscars have come and gone, and people are already discussing what could be the best movie of 2025. We, on the other hand, are just now getting around to our “Worst of 2024” list. We are certainly more negative in this particular episode, but if you had to watch all these terrible movies, you would be negative too. Enjoy!

It is that time of year again, a season when we inevitably spend way too much time engaging in discussions about all the movies we loved from the year before. This year, however, we kind of felt like there weren’t as many standout moments or experiences to love, perhaps just a handful of things to like. Even with that sentiment in mind, we still had an absolute blast getting extra long-winded in our conversations and reflections.Enjoy!

Happy Valentine’s Day! Here is our episode on the new romantic comedy/slasher horror film, Heart Eyes. What can we say, we love “love” here at COtR, and we wanted to celebrate with something that fit the theme. Enjoy!

This week we are talking about the new comedy/thriller, Companion. Just in case you don’t know what this movie is about, but still want to see it, we will not talk about any of the plot points in this post. But we did largely enjoy this movie, even if we don’t care for all or one of the actors, and their very punchable face.Enjoy!

This week is a catchup episode. It has been awhile since we talked about things that are newish, so we are just covering as much as we can in an hour or so. Some things we liked, others not as much. As a little treat for you, we largely agreed this time, which is rare. So at least you don’t have to hear us bicker too much. Enjoy!
