Summary

With Mark and Simon setting off on their rip-roaring canal cruise, this week’s episode sees favourites Rhianna Dhillon and Anna Bogutskaya take the helm of the good ship Take. Rhianna chats to SAG Executive Vice President Ben Whitehair to find out more about the strikes, including what actors are fighting for and the wider implications for the industry. Anna reviews ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem’, the star-studded, Seth Rogen co-penned, computer-animated superhero outing, which sees the iconic Turtles set out to be accepted as normal teenagers through acts of heroism; ‘The Beanie Bubble’, a comedy drama about the meteoric rise in popularity of Beanie Babies soft toys; and ‘Talk To Me’, a freaky Australian horror about a young woman who becomes embroiled with the supernatural following a séance with an embalmed hand.

0:00.0	Hello, and welcome to Kermode and Mayo's take. Although, of course, it's not Kermode and
0:13.9	Mayo. It's Dylan and Bugatskaya. How you doing, Anna? I'm so good. I'm so good now that
0:20.2	we're sitting opposite each other on life as well again. It is Barbie and Oppenheimer
0:25.8	in cinemas. We're in the studio. We've got coffee. We got treated to cross-horns.
0:30.1	No, for sure. Don't tell anybody. I don't tell everyone. It's been a pretty massive
0:36.2	week for cinema, generally, and I feel like I haven't heard people this excited about
0:42.2	actually going to the cinema for a very long time. There is no talk of, I'll just catch
0:46.4	this when it's on the streaming. I've not heard a single person say that. Also, every
0:50.5	single screening has been sold out. The people who have not seen either Barbie or Oppenheimer
0:55.6	is because they can't get a ticket. Wow. Which is extraordinary. I love to see it. Also,
1:01.3	I live on a street that's directly opposite a cinema and an independent cinema. Every

1:19.2	Do you think this is what it was like to be alive for the first hours or exorcist?
1:25.7	We also saw this a lot with the first phase of Marvel movies when going to the cinema to see
1:32.4	something was a cultural touch point. I imagine this as well with the original release of fatal
1:39.3	attraction or the original release of Dracula in 1931. People going absolutely crazy for a movie.
1:47.9	The movie is being the place to be. I mean, you're so far into the moment that it's invaded
1:53.1	your clothes. I love your Greta Goig. I mean, T-shirt. Two pinks. Two pinks. Pink on pink.
1:58.1	Yeah. I obviously had to dress thematically for today's episodes. Yeah. I am dressed as a
2:03.7	mushroom cloud. That was a couple weeks ago. But no, there's, I did buy this t-shirt in a fever
2:13.4	craze at about one a.m. As soon as girls on tops put the pre-sales on the website. I was like,
