Josh reviews The Smashing Machine, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s dramatic leap into awards-season acting — and whether the hype matches the film. Garrett revisits Happy Death Day and its sequel, celebrating their blend of humor, horror, and heart, while Josh revisits a 30th anniversary screening of Casper for some spooky family nostalgia.Then the gang dives into the week’s strangest headline: Amazon removing guns from classic James Bond posters.
