We didn’t start the fire, but we’re happy to sit around it and talk about the week’s new movies on Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy review the surprisingly dull “Firestarter,” yet another adaptation of the Stephen King novel. Also: the Rebel Wilson comedy “Senior Year” on Netflix and “Pleasure,” a provocative, Spirit Award-nominated look at the adult film industry. In news, we discuss the tragic closing of the Landmark Theatre in Los Angeles, sequels to “A Simple Favor” and “This Is Spinal Tap,” Norm MacDonald, Patti LuPone, Fred Ward and more. And on our Patreon, we recap the latest episode of “The Offer” on Paramount+, which was surprisingly good. Thanks as always for joining us.
