Episode 305: Movie News, Smile, Bros
We're in love with "Bros" and we think you will be, too, on Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy review this sweet and raunchy queer rom-com starring Billy Eichner and Luke Macfarlane. Also, our good friend, horror expert William Bibbiani (aka Bibbs), joins Christy to review the extremely creepy "Smile." In news, Alonso and Christy discuss Wolverine joining Deadpool, Moviepass, Chloe Grace Moretz, Coolio and more. And it's jammed as always over at our Patreon, with recaps of "Andor," "The Handmaid's Tale" and "She-Hulk." Join us for all this autumnal podcast goodness.

Episode 304: Movie News, Avatar Re-release, The Good House
Oh hey, it's just us, hanging out on Pandora for our latest episode of Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy catch up with the 4K re-release of "Avatar," which is back in theaters ahead of the sequel "Avatar: The Way of Water." We also have an early review of "The Good House," a romantic comedy/drama that reunites Sigourney Weaver with Kevin Kline (and it's Sigourney Weaver Day around here, which is always welcome). In news, we talk box office, more "Don't Worry Darling" drama, Russia boycotting the Academy Awards, the Taylor Hawkins tribute concert, new seasons of "True Detective" and "Squid Game," and more. And over at our Patreon, we revisit "The Queen" for September's Off the Menu selection. Thanks for joining us!

Episode 303: Movie News, Don't Worry Darling, Confess Fletch
We're frolicking in suburbia with Harry and Miss Flo this week on Breakfast All Day. Christy and Alonso review the much-anticipated "Don't Worry Darling," and feel baffled by this beautiful but ultimately ridiculous sci-fi thriller. (We'll do a spoiler discussion down the road. We have lots of questions.) But we were both pleasantly surprised by "Confess, Fletch," with Jon Hamm stepping into one of Chevy Chase's iconic roles. It's in theaters and streaming on Paramount+. In news, we discuss the "Avatar" 4K re-release, trailers for "Knock at the Cabin" and "Bardo," Margot Robbie, season 2 of "The Vow" and more. And we have a ton of stuff on our Patreon: the first three installments of the "Star Wars" series "Andor," as well as new episodes of "The Handmaid's Tale" and "She-Hulk."

Episode 302: Movie News, The Woman King, Goodnight Mommy (2022), Barbarian Spoilers
So many new fall movies came out this past weekend, we had to scatter them across several days to get to them all. On our latest episode of Breakfast All Day, we review the exceptionally kick-ass "The Woman King," the needless remake of the Austrian thriller "Goodnight Mommy" (which Alonso liked better than Christy did), and we go deep into spoilers on "Barbarian" now that the horror movie has been our for a little while. But it's best to see it knowing nothing, so you've been warned! In news, we discuss the "Constantine" sequel, the excellent indie drama "God's Country," Ezra Miller, Woody Allen and more. Thanks for joining us.

Episode 301: Movie News, Blonde, Pearl
Fall movie season begins in earnest this week, and we have a Breakfast All Day review of two much-anticipated titles featuring deeply committed performances from their female stars. "Blonde" finds Ana de Armas at the center of a beautiful and brutal look at the life of Marilyn Monroe, and "Pearl," the prequel to "X," offers a gonzo turn from Mia Goth. In news, Christy and Alonso discuss "Rogue Squadron," "Squid Game," "The Little Mermaid," "I Wanna Dance With Somebody" and more. And it's a big day on our Patreon because "The Handmaid's Tale" is back on Hulu, and we have a recap of the first two episodes of season 5. We also recap this week's "She-Hulk," which gave Alonso a new nickname. Join us for all this podcast goodness!

Episode 300: Movie News, Barbarian, Moonage Daydream
We're freaking out in a "Moonage Daydream" here at Breakfast All Day, but we're also celebrating because it's our 300th episode! And this week is a great example of the totally random cross-section of stuff you get from us. Alonso and Christy review the trippy, kaleidoscopic David Bowie documentary, which is best experienced on the biggest screen you can find with the crispest sound. It comes out Friday, Sept. 16 in theaters, including several IMAX locations. Dan Murrell returns to help Christy catch up with the twisty horror movie "Barbarian," and we kept our review spoiler-free because you should go in knowing as little as possible. And we have a jam-packed news segment between D23, the Toronto International Film Festival and the death of French New Wave legend Jean-Luc Godard. We're thrilled you've stuck with us this long, so thank you!

Episode 299: Movie News, Pinocchio
We're still waiting for someone to come along and sprinkle fairy dust on us. 'Til then, we're just gonna keep acting like real film critics here at Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy review the truly terrible live-action remake of "Pinocchio," which went straight to streaming on Disney+. We also have lots of news for you, including the Toronto International Film Festival starting (with Alonso's breakdown of how meaningless standing ovations are), Disney's D23 Expo, trailers for "Glass Onion" and "My Policeman," Lea Michele in "Funny Girl," Beyond Fest celebrating "RRR" director S.S. Rajamouli and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap episode 4 of "She-Hulk: Attorney at Law," which was actually good! Thanks for sharing some of your time with us.

Episode 298: Movie News, Honk for Jesus. Save Your Soul.
Don't worry, darling — Breakfast All Day is back. And Alonso is recovering and feeling perky just in time to talk about whether Harry Styles actually spit on Chris Pine at the Venice Film Festival. Also in news, he and Christy discuss the movies premiering at Telluride, new trailers for "White Noise" and "Empire of Light," accusations against Arcade Fire's Win Butler, and Rob Schneider saying he'll toss away his career for his beliefs, whatever that means. We also catch up with a review of the satire "Honk for Jesus. Save Your Soul.," featuring excellent performances from Regina Hall and Sterling K. Brown. And over at our Patreon, we finally recap the season 2 finale of "Only Murders in the Building" as well as episodes 2 and 3 of "She-Hulk." Thanks for your patience!

Episode 297: Spin Me Round, Xanadu: Was It Great or Were You 8?
Lace up your roller skates and join us for an end-of-summer edition of Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy catch up with the comedy-drama-horror-romance "Spin Me Round," which is as messy as it sounds. It stars Alison Brie and Aubrey Plaza and is in theaters and streaming. And in our latest round of "Was It Great or Were You 8?" we had the pleasure of revisiting "Xanadu," which Christy still loves with zero irony. With the recent passing of Olivia Newton-John, this is a perfect opportunity to reflect on what made her so beloved. Come back next week when we'll have more movie news and reviews. Until then, stay cool over Labor Day weekend, and thanks for sharing some of your time with us.

Episode 296: Three Thousand Years of Longing, Funny Pages
Alonso's feeling a little under the weather this week, but the always delightful and insightful Katie Walsh was kind enough to fill in on a couple of Breakfast All Day film reviews. We discuss "Three Thousand Years of Longing," George Miller's disappointing follow-up to "Mad Max: Fury Road," and the extremely weird "Funny Pages," a comedy that feels like a return to the early days of indie film. We'll be back on Monday with news as well as TV recaps for our Patreon subscribers: the season 2 finale of "Only Murders in the Building," and episode 2 of "She-Hulk." Hope you're having a relaxing end of the summer, and thanks for sharing some of those lazy days with us.
