Mike is fascinated with movie numbers so this week he breaks down Deadline’s report of the Most and Least Profitable movies of the last year. Mike gives his thoughts on where the bombs went wrong and why the profitable films aren’t the ones you’d expect to be. He also shares what the Top 5 most profitable movies are of all-time. In the Movie Review, Mike gives his thoughts on IF starring Ryan Reynolds. It’s about a 12 year old who discovers she can see everyone's imaginary friends, so she goes on a magical adventure to reconnect forgotten IFs with their kids. Mike shares why family movies have a special place in his heart, his imaginary friend growing up, why the movie felt unoriginal but ended up hitting him on an emotional level. In the Trailer Park, Mike gives his thoughts on M. Night Shyamalan’s new movie coming out this summer called Trap. It’s about a man and his teenage daughter who realize they're at the center of a dark and sinister event while watching a concert…and could be his best yet! (hopefully!)

Will It Make 1 Billion? + Movie Review: Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes + Trailer Park:  Despicable Me 4

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/d421b525-b05d-4643-a3d1-b16e011b17d8/transcript

Mike and Kelsey share their best and worst movie experiences to recap the month of April. They also discuss The Rock showing up to set 7-8 hours late, Chris Hemsworth admitting he became a "parody" of himself in "Thor: Love and Thunder" and a study that found Americans think the perfect movie length is just 92 minutes. In the Movie Review, Mike gives his thoughts on The Fall Guy starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt. He plays a stuntman and she is a first time action movie director. His character must find the missing star of her movie…trying to win back her love in the process.  In the Trailer Park, Mikes breaks down the Mufasa: The Lion King which serves as both a sequel and a prequel to the 2019 ‘live-action’ movie. Mike says what this movie will need to have in order to match the previous box office total of 1.6 billion set by its predecessor.
