Movie Breakdown: Five Nights At Freddy’s
Pre-Screening Stance: I’ve never played the Five Nights At Freddy’s games, so I can’t speak to whether or not the film looks like it’s going to be a faithful adaptation. What I can note though...
Movie Breakdown: Dicks: The Musical
Pre-Screening Stance: I don’t believe I’m alone in thinking that Dicks: The Musical looks absolutely ridiculous (possibly in a good way). Here’s hoping it’s as funny as it is raunchy. Post-Screening Ramble: If you’re looking...

Pre-Screening Stance: Theater Camp has a great cast – Molly Gordon, Ayo Edebiri, Jimmy Tatro, etc. – and it looks like it’s going to be pretty funny. If it doesn’t work, I’ll just blame Ben...
Movie Breakdown: Oppenheimer
Pre-Screening Stance: I don’t think Christopher Nolan has a made a bad film yet, so of course I’m more than ready to see what he’s done with Oppenheimer. Post-Screening Ramble: I’ll need to see it...
