We return to the Overlook’s shadow with Doctor Sleep, the long-awaited sequel to The Shining (novel and film) that somehow blends horror, healing, and hope. We talk Ewan McGregor’s quietly powerful performance as an adult Danny Torrance, Rebecca Ferguson’s hypnotic Rose the Hat, and how Mike Flanagan managed to honor both Stephen King and Stanley Kubrick. From psychic showdowns to emotional closure, we explore how this film turns trauma into redemption—with a little Flanagan flare.

The Shining
We take a chilling detour into horror with Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining—the film that made us all suspicious of typewriters, hotels, and long hallways. We talk Jack Nicholson’s unhinged performance, Shelley Duvall’s haunting resilience, and the maze of symbolism that keeps fans theorizing decades later. From adaptation faithfulness to endless carpet patterns, we unpack why this unsettling classic has held its place in the horror genre.

Thor: Ragnarok
We crank up the color (and the comedy) with MCU's Thor: Ragnarok, the cosmic reinvention that turned the god of Thunder into a fan favorite. We talk Taika Waititi’s wild (and welcome) tonal shift, Hulk’s buddy-comedy upgrade, and Cate Blanchett’s scene-stealing Hela. From immigrant anthems to gladiator arenas, we explore how this third Thor outing embraced the weird, redefined the character, and delivered one of the MCU’s funniest, boldest adventures yet.

Spider-Man: Homecoming
Spider-Man finally swings solo in the MCU with Spider-Man: Homecoming, a high school comedy wrapped in superhero tights. We talk Tom Holland’s energetic debut, the perfect awkward balance of Peter Parker’s double life, and Michael Keaton’s grounded (and terrifying) Vulture. From decathlon drama to ferry disasters, we explore how this coming-of-age story nailed the heart of Spider-Man—and gave us a new generation’s friendly neighborhood hero.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
The Guardians are back and more dysfunctional than ever in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. We talk Peter Quill’s very complicated family tree, Rocket’s struggle with connection, and why Yondu yelling “I’m Mary Poppins, y’all!” still makes us chuckle (or cry). From psychedelic visuals to the tear-jerking goodbyes, we explore how James Gunn's sequel cranked up the heart while keeping the laughs—and proved the Guardians were more than just a bunch of a-holes.
Two best friends hit rewind on their favorite movies and shows, from superhero blockbusters to cult classics—diving into epic scenes, surprising details, and behind-the-scenes stories. Expect deep dives, friendly roasts, and so many memorable quotes as we blend heart, humor, and nostalgia to help you see these stories in a whole new way (or fall in love with them all over again).
