Summary

Mike talks about what 10 TV Characters he thinks could get the ‘Mandalorian and Grogu’ treatment and go from streaming TV show to Movie. From Euphoria and Stranger Things to Wednesday and The Boys. Which characters could become billion-dollar movie franchises, and what would their movies actually look like? In the Movie Review, Mike gives his thoughts on The Mandalorian and Grogu. Once a lone bounty hunter, Mandalorian Din Djarin and his apprentice Grogu embark on an exciting new Star Wars adventure. Mike answers the big questions: Does it live up to expectations being the first Star Wars movie in theaters since 2019, did it just feel like one big Mandalorian episode and where will Disney take Star Wars after this? In the Trailer Park, Mike talks about The Rivals of Amziah King.  It’s Matthew McConaughey’s  first time with a movie in theaters since 2019 .The film follows McConaughey as Amziah, a honey-farmer whose operation is threatened by dangerous rivals played by Kurt Russell.

0:13.1

Because in the review this week, I'm talking about the Mandalorian and Grogu, which started

0:17.9

as a Disney Plus show, now has the full Hollywood picture treatment.

0:22.5

So I have some ideas for shows that I think could be turned into movies if you base them on one character.
