Episode notes

We're taking it easy as we head into this busy Oscar weekend at Breakfast All Day. Here's what we reviewed in our latest episode:

PROJECT HAIL MARY. This is a super-early review of the Ryan Gosling-in-space comedy, which doesn't even come out until March 20. But there's so much expectation for it, we wanted to share our throughts as soon as we could. Phil Lord and Christopher Miller direct from a script by Drew Goddard, based on the Andy Weir novel. In theaters next weekend.
IT'S DOROTHY! This documentary provides a fresh and clever perspective on the character of Dorothy Gale and the cultural significance of "The Wizard of Oz" in all its incarnations. Writer-director-editor Jeffrey McHale is a friend of ours (we interviewed him here about his "Showgirls" documentary with the brilliant title "You Don't Nomi"), so we didn't give this a number, but genuinely liked the movie so much that we wanted to tell you about it. Streaming on Peacock.
MOVIE NEWS LIVE! Our last one before the Academy Awards. Lots to discuss including Timothée Chalamet angering the ballet and opera communities, a sequel for "KPop Demon Hunters," the George Michael "Faith Tour" movie, a Stewie spin-off from "Family Guy" and more. Join us on Fridays at Noon Pacific at our YouTube channel.

A few things to put on your calendar:

Join us Sunday for our LIVE Oscar Watch Party! We'll be at our channel starting at 330pm Pacific and we'll be hanging out for the whole show. This is always so much fun every year, so come and share your thoughts.

Then come back Monday morning for our Oscars Reaction Live Chat! In case you can't make it Sunday night, or you just want to go over everything that happened, we'll be back at our channel at 9am Pacific.

And on Saturday, March 21, we're showing "After Hours" at the Gardena Cinema. If you've never seen this Martin Scorsese comedy classic and you're in the LA area, this is a great opportunity. Doors open at 6pm, we'll be there for a little meet and greet, and then the film will start at 7. Tickets are available here. Support your local arthouse theater!
