Hey Scripties! In this jam-packed episode, we dive into some major updates and deep conversations in the world of film and TV.

First, we unpack the surprising dissolution of the Apple TV partnership with Wolfs director, crushing any hopes for a Wolfs 2. After that cliffhanger ending, we’ve got thoughts—and plenty of frustration.

Next, we explore the bone-chilling performances in Them on Amazon Prime, breaking down its most haunting moments. Then, we dive into the intense family drama of Brothers, a Prime movie about twin brothers grappling with their past and shared DNA.

From there, we tackle the puzzling final episodes of Grotesquerie. With so many loose ends, another season feels absolutely necessary to solve the show’s mind-bending puzzle.

We also discuss Beauty in the Black and reflect on the streak of ambitious projects he’s been taking on lately—love them or not, they’ve got people talking. Speaking of standout performances, we highlight Ben Affleck’s moving role in The Way Back. It wasn’t what we expected, but it’s an unforgettable watch.

Finally, we analyze M. Night Shyamalan’s latest thriller, Trap. How does it compare to his other projects? And what would we have done in a deadly situation with a serial killer?

Get cozy, Scripties—this episode is packed with twists, turns, and hot takes!

Hey, scripties! We’re kicking off this episode with the latest Hollywood tea, discussing recent breakups and makeups. Zoe Kravitz and Channing Tatum have called off their engagement right after their movie Don’t Blink dropped and became a hit. Meanwhile, Shaun White and a Vampire Diaries star Nina Dobrev have taken the plunge and gotten engaged—catch our take on that!

In our viewers recommended watch segment, we’re diving into Depravity, available for rent on Apple TV or Prime. This thriller follows a group of kids who suspect their neighbor is a murderer, leading them into a deadly mystery. We chat about Victoria Justice’s big step from Nickelodeon to a darker role, Dermot Mulroney’s surprising near-silent performance, and who we thought was guilty in this wild, twisty story.

Next, we talk about Mr. Crockett on Hulu, where a mother must rescue her son from a demonic children’s show host who’s kidnapping kids. We dig into character differences by age, how an older kid tries to confront Mr. Crockett, and whether our childhood selves would’ve been his targets. Plus, we touch on the film’s budget and whether we’d watch it again.

Lastly, we look at Wolves on Apple TV, a thriller with Brad Pitt and George Clooney as aging but still suave assassins. They’re hired to “clean up” a job gone wrong but discover the boy they thought was dead is alive—and on the run. We discuss the action, Clooney and Pitt’s timeless looks, and whether we see a sequel in the future. And don’t miss next week’s watchlist: Brothers on Prime, Grotesquerie season one, episodes 6-10 on Hulu, and Vim season 2 on Prime. See you then, scripties!

Diana, who’s got manipulation down to an art form.

Plus, fingers crossed we won’t be waiting forever for season 3!

Next, we take a swing at the second half of Fight Night: Million Dollar Heist on Peacock, episodes 5 through 10.
