We Love Da 5 Bloods, Kenneth Branagh Talks Nolan, Artemis Fowl & More

We are thrilled to welcome Sir Kenneth Branagh on the show! The prolific actor/director talks about switching between both hats, what working on set with the likes of Christopher Nolan teaches him about directing his own films, developing and shooting Artemis Fowl, and so much more. 

Also on the week's show, we review the 3 big films hitting streaming platforms and VOD this week including Spike Lee's Da 5 Bloods, Judd Apatow's The King of Staten Island, and of course Artemis Fowl. Da 5 Bloods marks Sean's first 5-star movie review of the year, and the rest of the guys are in total agreement; Spike Lee has done it again with his latest joint. 

The first teaser for Bill & Ted Face the Music hit this week, and they guys give their thoughts. It was also announced that theaters in California could begin reopening in a limited capacity starting this weekend with most theaters across the globe, including AMC Theatres, opening by mid-July. The guys discuss their personal thoughts on if and when we can start going back to theaters, and what this return is looking like for the many major releases to come.
