BTS: Remembering Stan Lee, Fantastic Beasts 2, Apple Goes Hollywood
This week, we said goodbye to a true entertainment icon, Stan Lee. The co-creator of some of the most indelible superhero characters of all time leaves behind a legacy that will outlast us all, and we’ll have our own Rick Marshall on the show to talk about his unique relationship with the legend, as well as to give us his spoiler-free review of Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald.
We’ve got plenty more to talk about today, of course, including a Game of Thrones premiere date and teaser trailer (if you can call 2 minutes of old footage a teaser), Game of Thrones alum Pedro Pascal’s casting in The Mandalorian, Apple’s new plans for the movie business, Ryan Reynolds as Pikachu, and much more.
So check out our video broadcast here or on YouTube, Twitch, or Facebook Live, and don’t forget to download the podcast from the links below and take Between the Streams on the road.
Between the Streams
Between the Streams is your weekly streaming guide to all of the hottest, most important, and (of course) dumbest new developments in streaming and entertainment, providing a handy recap of the week that was and a preview for what is ahead. We tackle the best and brightest movies and TV shows coming your way, including way too many superhero movies — and we love it.
At Between the Streams, we take on the big issues of our times, like whether or not Star Wars is going to go off the rails in the next few years (probably), or why five seasons is the ultimate zenith for any drama that wants to go out on top (thank you, Breaking Bad). We’re just as happy arguing about whether or not Alf was a quintessential ’80s sitcom as we are pondering Hollywood’s increasing penchant for reboots and nostalgia-driven mash-ups like Stranger Things. In short, we’re all about the most awesome, water cooler-worthy entertainment subjects that happen each and every week.
We do the tough part so you don’t have to, digging up all the stories you need to know about each Friday in a fun and succinct weekly chat. So sit back, grab something to drink, and enjoy the ride. It’s all entertainment from here, and let’s face it, we could all use the break.
