Being John Malkovich because she’s unrecognizable in it.

Ant-Man. Both have their problems (including problematic sidekicks) but Ant-Man’s more consistent throughout while Deadpool starts very strong but begins to peter out in the middle (at least from memory).

To Kill A Mockingbird. I tend to enjoy Marvel movies more than you do but I’ve been too wild about the first Guardians film. The villain is one of dullest, most-afterthought antagonists in the franchise (which is saying something) and at times I think it only gets by its 80s nostalgia. But To Kill A Mockingbird is timeless.

Congrats Molly!

My publishing guru (for lack of a better word) convinced me to a write a short conclusion/epilogue to my book. After a bitter month's struggle, that conclusion is now in a presentable form and after four years, the book is finally being submitted to publishers.
I'm sure it'll be a while before it's on shelves and there'll be a lot of to-ing and fro-ing with the publishers before then. In the meantime, I'm glad to finally be at this point and am already working on the next one.

He died today at the age of 79.
I’m more familiar with him as a voice actor than his live action work but he played my favorite character on DS9 (albeit from a pretty crowded field).

Bridesmaids.
That's all there is right?
Bridemaids and Ghostbusters.
I'm tempted to say The Martian or Walk Hard but in each she's part of a large ensemble and each film would probably be better for episodes devoted to their respective main stars (Matt Damon and John C. Reilly).

Great episode gents! This was the first and only Mummy movie I saw in cinemas fresh off learning about
Two contextless notes:
-Cleopatra (Cleopatra VII, to be precise) actually wasn't a native Egyptian; her family, the Ptolemies, were from Macedonia (having came down to Egypt with Alexander the Great and ruling the country after he died) and they were almost certainly Caucasian (not to mention super-inbred and mostly horrible). That's not a defense of Rachel Weisz being cast as an Egyptian, though, and Queen Nefertiti (who was a native Egyptian) wouldn't have been white.
-We do have foxes in the United States. My parents live in New Jersey and they occasionally see them outside their house.

Not to mention Adrian's love of Alexander the Great.
He even has
a horse named Bucephalus in the new TV series
and is implied to have had a
Hephaestion, or at least a male love interest, in his Before Watchmen miniseries.

Either Mr Holmes or Gods and Monsters and Scandal.

Excellent episode guys! I’ll definitely give the series a read based on your review.
Incidentally, I love that whenever Dan imitates idiots, he puts on a Frank Oz voice.

Next year, how about showcasing two or three actors who were mega-famous in a particular era / decade, then faded from lead roles. (Maybe they still act, but they're not the star they once were.) For example:
Alicia Silverstone: The Crush, Clueless, The Babysitter
Macaulay Culkin: Uncle Buck, Home Alone, My Girl or maybe Ri¢hie Ri¢h
Cameron Diaz: The Mask, A Life Less Ordinary, There's Something About Mary
I’ll add Jennifer Lopez to that list, in part because she’s making a comeback.

You’ll probably want to disown him by time you sit down to record.

Anyone else here watch The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance? I binged it last week and would love to review the original film and the pilot for an episode of The Show (ideally someone who grew up with the film or saw it at a young age).

Yes. Particularly the second-to-last sentence in the first paragraph.
