2021-12-04 • Saturday Matinée

Rob and Pete review the week with news, some confusing trailer selections, a not-so-mysterious game of Step-Up, and picks the celebrate over-indulgent performances in film.

In the News

The Expanse is coming back for season six on December 10 and, in what can only be called a true Belter Holiday Miracle, the ninth book was just released too! Tatum is back with Soderbergh and we have some ideas for titles. Red Notice is the most watched thing on the ‘Flix. Reviews of West Side Story are starting to come in and it turns out things are looking pretty darned good. Cara Delevingne is moving into the Building for Season 2. And, Rob delivers a special message to Kyle about Tom Holland.
