This is an IHeart podcast.

Hello and welcome back to Movie Mike's movie podcast. I am your host, Movie Mike, joined by my wife and co-host Kelsey. How are you? I'm good, except the ringlight is aggressive tonight. And I don't know if it's just because I've been in my dark office in front of the computer all day, but I feel like I need sunglasses for this. But we are here to do our best and worst of October. How is it? We're like, it's Christmas now. And then in the movie review, we'll be talking about begonia. Is it buconia? Bugonia. Bugonia. It's a very hard first syllable. Bagonia. Bagonia. Bagani. Bagonia. With Emma Stowe. Okay, now you're just saying words. About a couple of dudes who are really into conspiracy theories, so they capture a CEO and they think she's an alien. And in the trailer park, we'll talk about send help with Dylan O'Brien and Rachel McAdams, which I'm really enjoying Dylan O'Brien right now. It's a Dylan O'Brien resurgence. It's a big year for him. That was actually the first trailer that we hadn't seen before. It was like a fresh trailer because we see all of the trailers because we go to the movie so much, but we sat down and saw that one and we were like, haven't seen this one. We'll break it down in the trailer. We'll break that down in the trailer park.

And now, let's talk movies.

From the Nashville podcast network, this is Movie Mike's Movie Podcasts.

Let's hop right into it.

Best and Worst for October.

What do you have is your best?

Best was The Lost Bus.

Do you think we both enjoyed this movie so much because we love disaster movies?

Yes.

But then I was also, like, bummed to know that they did dramatize.

A lot of it.

A lot of it.

Which is kind of expected when you have a disaster movie that is based on true events. Normally it's not. But if you think of the disaster genre, it has to go to big lengths to make it entertaining. Yeah, it's going to the next level. So I understand. And I'm glad all of that didn't happen in real life. Let me be clear. Very glad there were not a bunch of school children on a bus

in like active flames. That is true, but you do feel more for them thinking that it was true,

which it was based on the paradise fires. Yes, in 2018. Which is weird that there was another one this

year. The palisades. Very similar. Yes. But it was a true story about a bus driver who got some children to safety. But some of the things that happened that were really heroic did not actually happen in real life. Yeah. Again, glad for the children. But was like, oh, man, this dude's a real hero. Still a hero. Still a hero. Oh, my gosh. Still traumatizing. But Matthew and Connor, he was great.

I think that was the perfect role for him.

Oh, absolutely.
