Summary

On the April 6, 2021 episode of /Film Daily, /Film senior writer Ben Pearson is joined by /Film managing editor Jacob Hall and writers Hoai-Tran Bui and Chris Evangelista to discuss the latest film and TV news and answer some listener questions in the mailbag. Opening Banter:    In The News: HT: ‘Justice League’ Clash: Joss Whedon Reportedly Threatened Gal Gadot’s Career, Ray Fisher Shares Troubling Cyborg Changes During Reshoots   In The Mailbag: What are some of your favorite movie watching snacks and beverages (either at home and/or in the theater)? Do you have any favorite movies that are about food? What are some of your favorite food related scenes in movies that aren't otherwise specifically about food? Thanks for the always entertaining pods! – Matthew M, New Haven CT   Chris! Oh dear Chris. I have been noticing that our tastes in movies and shows often are the same. I was very curious: what are your thoughts on this Nordic style horror/thriller genre? Have you watched: Fortitude on Prime or Trapped and Black Spot on Netflix? Or perhaps The Head, an HBO MAX original? If you have seen these types of shows, which ones did surprise you in a good way? Any recommendations? I have seen all previously mentioned shows and just love that type of tone and grisly over the top violence in them. Also what are your expectations for the upcoming Antlers movie? Unless you have seen the screener already, I can't wait for it to come out on any platform, I have high hopes. On top of that I have not heard you talk about Servant, the Apple TV+ original produced by M. Night Shyamalan. Have you seen it? I think it is pretty dope, all the fine wine consumption on top of this suspenseful storyline. Acting is top notch as well! Man I have tons of questions built up for you Mr. Evangelista lol, just leave me your phone number and I will call you with the rest of them haha JK. Thank you guys! Y'all became such a big part of my life it is very surprising for me to realize. Wish you all great success and chill vibes! - Yerbol from the Bay Area (PS It's been 2 years or so since the last time I wrote, my son is now 4yo and I am choosing to show him anything that interests him, whether it is age appropriate or not, nothing is off the table, but I am explaining the scary and new concepts to him like I would to an adult. So far he has seen parts of IT chapter one and parts of Ghostbusters original and reboot. He is very cool about it.)   Hey all, a couple weeks ago Chris mentioned the two Hitler biographies and based on his recommendation I’m going to get the audiobooks through audible. But my question is, what audiobooks (or just regular books) would you recommend – specifically, what movie-based books do you all like? I’ve already done Space Odyssey (the 2001 a space odyssey movie book) and Clash of the Titans, and I have the Peter Jackson and the making of middle earth and taking shape 1&2 in my wishlist. - William VanBeek from Green Bay, wisCANson   Listener Responses About How to Curate Watchlists   Hello people, I absolutely used to get stuck on all of the streaming services, trying to decide what to watch. Sometimes my wife and I would spend so much time trying to pick something, it would get too late and we’d end up watching nothing. To help with that, I started keeping my own list of movies. This wasn’t using the in-service queues, which I found more anxiety-inducing than anything; this was just a simple excel file I had quick access to and could update easily. Basically, any time we saw a movie that looked interesting, or we mentioned an old movie we’d like to watch, I’d throw it on the list. (I actually kept two lists.. one for “us” movies and one with movies she wasn’t interested in.) When it comes time to watch a movie, I hit an online random number generator and whatever row comes up, we watch. It totally cuts out the indecision, and it has an awesome element of surprise to it. It’s like opening a movie present! It also helps w Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

can still see every website you visit even in incognito mode, but not with

Express VPN is ridiculously easy to use.
