Why Summer Blockbusters Are Lowkey Flopping: Fall Guy, Garfield, Mad Max Furiosa, and More

[@PlasticBuddha88]

HAPPY PRIDE!! Also HOLY CRAP wearing a trenchcoat over clubwear on the subway so you don't get attacked is SO relatable. That was 100% me in DC in the 2010's.

regularly casting big name actors for animated roles started after Robin Williams made the genie from Aladdin a better character than how he was written by improvising 16 hrs worth of material

[@meheuck]

For Ira's question: Scooby's brother Scooby-Dum, along with his even lesser-seen sister Scooby-Dee (who could talk in proper English), popped up in the third incarnation of the show, the one that initially was partnered with Dynomutt & Blue Falcon, but those characters got cut out when that went into syndication with the rest of the Scooby-Doo shows.

Happy Pride!
I think the new ‘Twisters’ movie that comes out in July is going to do well in theaters.. the trailers are doing huge numbers, the movie has a soundtrack of all original songs by country artists (we all know country is huge right now) and it actually looks decent. I’m really excited to see it as I’m a huge fan of the first film! I know big movies have not been doing to week lately but I have a feeling this one might surprise us!

[@Borahborah9139]

I just watched challengers last night! Thank you both for the recommendations!!!

[@vanessawhitneypro]

Happy Pride, Gentlemen. Love You Both. Love Your Show. I know it's "cringe" to say, but, I'm proud to be a GenX ALLY! xo

[@vanessawhitneypro]

p.s. I saw IF and loved it!

[@vanessawhitneypro]

p.p.s. Madonna did a "post-apocalyptic/sci-fi" thing for her DROWNED WORLD tour... The style/set not the music really...

[@vanessawhitneypro]

p.p.p.s. Stunt Casting is dead.

Ira wearing a Nicki shirt on Lemme Say This and a Meg shirt for Keep It....MESSY

[@Irathethird]

😂😂😂😂

[@katehartley2333]

You are going to love the lady that plays Furiosa's mother, Ira!

[@sergiomelendez285]

Didn’t we always suspect this summer would be kind of lean at the B.O. because the strikes took forever to end?

[@hillarydougherty1840]

THANK YOU! I wanted to love The Fall Guy so badly, but it never really landed in any space. They don't give you enough time to root for this couple. I ended up rolling my eyes the entire time and felt bad about it. lol

[@klm4446]

...a "Rumplestilskin curse." 😂😂😂 Not every day that one hears a good Rumplestilskin reference.

[@hillarydougherty1840]

Also, the best thing about The Fall Guy was Ryan Gosling showing up as the Beavis and Butthead duo on the red carpet.

[@themorales6]

Happy Pride, Ira & Louis! Also, I love that the last thing I heard was Louis saying “fuck you” to Ira as the awesome theme music cued up!😂😂

[@HungryEyes-sl3mu]

Thank you for being honest about Fall Guy, everyone talks about it like it was this great movie but the action stunts went way too long, the meta jokes were funny back in the early 2000s, and it needed to be directed by early Guy Rithchie instead of imitating present day Guy Ritchie.
Furiosa felt more like a video game (Assassin's Creed, Elder Rings, Grand Theft Auto, etc.) where we run around to new locals, interact with NPCs but never take the time to know them, and in-between all that are some kickass fight sequences. Like I learned nothing new about Imoten Joe, Scroatus existed purely as a joke, and you can either have a dialog of odd/unique jargon or a weird accent not both at the same time Chris Hemsworth. Also wasn't necessary to Han Solo the lore.
There was a Garfield movie???

[@amandad6513]

Speaking of how we all talked in the early aughts - rewatch the first couple seasons of Project Runway. Hell mean, hell funny, and chef's kiss to Michael Kors 💜

[@firewoman2863]

That crotch is insane!

[@Buzz0Killington]

Movies Louis doesn’t like: Barbie, Casper and Last Night in SoHo.
👀👀👀

[@justaride77]

movies that both Ira and Louis don’t like, controversially: Hocus Pocus 😂

[@alaskagroundhog5073]

Maybe theaters could release some older movies for the summer. I would love to see Tombstone in a theater again. I live in Alaska, so theaters are limited.

[@karlee3095]

Looking forward to watching Gaga's concert on HBO. Not really into Summer blockbuster movies--more into Winter dramas like the Holdovers. Also, I want to be outside having fun, going to see live music, etc

[@sxt4447]

There are so many great songs, videos and looks from Artpop that the Monsters love. Just because it didn’t do as well commercially doesn’t matter if it nourished the fan base. Every time Gaga tries to be mainstream it backfires.

[@richardallen144]

I actually DON'T know what Ira means when he says Gaga had Kate Moss vibes--was she doing lots of cocaine? Defending Johnny Depp? Telling interviewers that nothing tastes as good as skinny feels?

[@tdun15]

i assumed he meant ❄️ lol

[@richardallen144]

@@tdun15 Probably, but I don't follow Gaga closely enough to know that she was blowed out at that time.

[@gabriellearthurs3258]

You don't have to choose between Casper and Batman Forever! You can have both!

[@capcomvssnk]

Flim-Flam being a character in the scooby doo lore. Like, who was this brown kid in a jumpsuit? They just took him in?

[@nalanan]

Lol, I really loved Fall Guy. It was so goofy and feel good. Something that I don't think we get very often anymore. I was happy to watch a movie that didn't take itself too seriously and it felt like everyone was just having fun, which made it fun for me.

[@justaride77]

Speaking of James Mangold, I just watched his first movie Heavy, and it was heart wrenching

[@trinicarillo4179]

Watch Lovett win this thing! Don’t underestimate him 😂

[@DanielleA2023]

Lets wait: Dpool/Wvine

[@lisajenny9]

Happy Pride! My scrappy doo hate was reactivated by that keep it. Omg i hated him.

[@Morgan-ug2rt]

Wow Louis. Casper is peak misunderstood magic sad boy cinema. Put in on the pantheon with Hocus Pocus. How dare!

[@themorales6]

Yes!!! ALWAYS hated Scrappy Doo!!!! 🙄🙄🙄

[@ht6743]

JLo's doing the new Bill Condon musical! That's her next big thing, hopefully.

[@JDMimeTHEFIRST]

Bring back Christine! . . .Make people afraid to drive again. I swear people want to f&*k their cars. They make it their whole personality.
