FNAF 2 Review

Supergirl Trailer Park

Mike has been fascinated with The Wizard of Oz his entire life because of the traumatic experience the cast and crew suffered in the making of the 1939 movie. He shares the things you might not know about the classic film from people being burned, poisoned, forced to smoke cigarettes, slapped in the face and more terrible things. And how the movie was actually a failure when it debuted in theaters but was saved almost 20 years later and became the classic we know it to be today. In the Movie Review, Mike talks about Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 starring Josh Hutcherson. It picks up one year has passed since the supernatural nightmare at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. Former security guard Mike has kept the truth from his 11-year-old sister, Abby, concerning the fate of her animatronic friends. Mike crashes out over how bad he thought it was, why it was his worst theater experience of the year and the one redeeming quality of the franchise.  In the Trailer Park, Mike blind reacts to Supergirl starring Milly Alcock and coming out on June 26, 2026. It’s about Superman’s 23-year old cousin who has a drinking problem and will serve as the 2nd film in the DC Universe. When an unexpected and ruthless adversary strikes too close to home, Kara Zor-El, aka Supergirl, reluctantly joins forces with an unlikely companion on an epic, interstellar journey of vengeance and justice. Mike talks about what he thinks about the suit, her heat vision and what might be the fate of her dog, Krypto.

Hamnet Review

How to Make a Killing Trailer

Bobby Bones joins Movie Mike to talk about his Top 5 movies he saw in 2025, him going back to the movie theaters for the first time in years and are we seeing the death of movie stars? In the Movie Review, Mike and Kelsey talk about Hamnet starring Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal. It’s about William Shakespeare and his wife, Agnes, who celebrate the birth of their son, Hamnet. However, when tragedy strikes and Hamnet dies at a young age, it inspires Shakespeare to write his timeless masterpiece "Hamlet." Mike talks about why he thinks it’s in contention for best picture, Kelsey shares why the movie was better than the book and the effect a girl was crying uncontrollably in the theater had on their movie experience. In The Trailer Park, Mike talks about How to Make a Killing starring Glen Powell.  The movie is about his character who is the heir to a multi-billion dollar fortune and will go to any lengths to grab everything he believes he deserves. Mike shares why he thinks we might be romanticizing murder a bit too much recently.
