Dave Levora and Mike Schulz sit around wondering, “Where’s Darren?” (Chicago, concert) and “Does Jaws still hold up?” (seeing how it’s been re-released on its fiftieth anniversary, it’s still an aesthetic judgment, but c’mon):

Mike Schulz, Dave Levora, and Darren Pitra talk films — mostly reboots (including James Gunn’s Superman, starring David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan, Nicholas Hoult, Edi Gathegi, Anthony Carrigan, Nathan Fillion, and Isabela Merced).
