Description
Hamilton's Oscar Controversy & Palm Springs Filmmakers GuestPalm Springs director Max Barbakow and writer Andy Siara join the show to discuss the charming romantic comedy starring Andy Samberg, Cristin Milioti and J.K. Simmons.Following Hamilton's release on Disney+, there's been some buzz around the realization that the broadway musical won't qualify for the Oscars next year. Do you think it should? Let us know on social.This past week brought us a trailer for David Ayer's new film The Tax Collector, starring Shia LeBeouf. The guys react to that, as well as the new trailer for Seth Rogen's An American Pickle. The film coming to HBO Max later this year stars Rogen as a man brined and preserved in pickle juice for 100 years, waking up in the present day. The trailer proved that the film may not be as completely silly as the premise might suggest, and so we discuss the under appreciated acting chops on display with Rogen's duel roles.Stick around for our break down of a few new movies hitting streaming this week including The Old Guard on Netflix starring Charlize Theron, the underwhelming Greyhound starring Tom Hanks, and our full review of Palm Springs.And of course, we celebrate the career of one of the industry's very best, Viola Davis. The inimitable actor has graced us with powerhouse performance after powerhouse performance which meant this was a particularly difficult week for the BlendGame. You can play along with next week's game using #NicoleKidmanBlend when we'll discuss our FAVORITE performances from Nicole Kidman's prolific career.This Week In MoviesFirst Cow (VOD)Relic (VOD)The Old Guard (Netflix)Greyhound (Apple TV+)Palm Springs (Hulu)7:13 - Weekly Poll: What's your favorite decade of Tom Cruise?14:25 - Max Barbakow & Andy Siara Interview44:23 - The Tax Collector Trailer Reactions51:27 - An American Pickle Trailer Reactions56:56 - Should Hamilton qualify for the Oscars?1:14:00 - This Week In Movies1:16:40 - Greyhound Review1:26:55 - Palm Springs Review1:38:00 - #ViolaDavisBlend1:49:00 - Listener ReviewFollow The Show HereReelBlend - @ReelBlendSean - @Sean_OConnell Jake - @JakesTakesKevin - @KevinMcCarthyTVGabe - @gabeKovacsSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/reelblend/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
