  • Good, but used to be GREAT!

    I like this podcast and everyone on it, but I am sad that they put my favorite part, the box office rundown, behind a paywall on another podcast. It hurts. Even though the show is weekly now, it can still review the previous weekend’s box office on Wednesday. It is still extremely relevant to THIS podcast. I don’t understand it.

  • Mixed bag since the format change.

    Been listening to this podcast since day one, there’s been some changes that have been good, and many that have been rough. I really do miss the old format. They had way more content than these merged segments squished together. It’s never current with the news. I really miss the box office analysis. You’d think they’d keep that. And no, I’m not gonna join that one dude’s patreon to get it. I still listen, fast forward all the interviews cause I don’t care for them. I guess you get a decent 5 to... more

  • could you please go back to original format

    I loved this show up until recently when they changed the format.

    Bring back water cooler and box office summaries. Interviews tend to be boring.

    thank you

  • Miss the monday Box-office show. Don’t listen too much beyond that.

    When it was daily I would listen to the Monday weekend box office show and the sometimes the water cooler show.

    This new format is terrible.

    Forced to listen to a bunch of stuff I don’t like.

    No more box office numbers.

    Stop with the spoilers.

    When people listen to podcast, they’re not always in a place where they can pause and rewind.

    —-STOP IT—

    This podcast is not about the fans anymore. It’s more about what’s convenient for the editors.

    I’m out.
