But of course, after we review the new Bob Lazar doc on Netflix, we cannot help but debate whether or not aliens exist for 10 minutes. And as it always happens on our MMOW variety show, the eclectic side conversations continue to happen. We compare Good Boys to Booksmart, discuss lion taming, great music in horror movies, what the audience of animated Batman movies want under their red hoods, and how Halloween 6 is still so gloriously & awesomely bad. Then you absolutely outdid yourselves once again in SixDegreesOfMMO. There are a great bunch of efficiency award winners, a wonderfully weird group of David Lynch Award winners, and a ridiculously creative trio of well researched longer submissions amongst this week’s presentations before we give you a new challenge. The box office has a comedy atop its domestic earners, and we celebrate that, while also lamenting some films that don’t seem to be getting the attention they deserve. The News of the Week is focused on the CBS / Viacom merger, & we discuss what that might mean for Star Trek, Mission Impossible, and Tarantino, of all people. The Last Christmas trailer thoughts segment reveals our favorite George Michael songs, and we then breakdown a slough of news in DYC including next week’s theatrical releases like Ready or Not, the next James Wan horror movie, an Aladdin sequel, A Little Mermaid without Harry Styles, Searching 2, The Eternals first poster, Ewen McGregor coming back to Star Wars, Olivia Wilde getting the respect she deserves, George R.R. Martin not giving us what we want, & Birds of Prey. It’s another loaded episode of MMO Weekly, and we wanna know what you think about any of these topics & of course, send us those next group of SixDegreesOfMMO submissions.
