In this god-packed episode of "Sure Look, Sure Listen," Mick and Ben debate the state of modern cinema; dead or alive and kicking? The episode kicks off with a candid discussion on the decline of big-budget films and why audiences might be turning away. The conversation then shifts to the much-anticipated/ utterly maligned teaser for "The Witcher" Season 4, exploring the challenges of recasting and the future of the series. Then pondering the questions like; did the wrong Hemsworth pick up the phone?
Next, Mick and Ben share their excitement about "Beetlejuice 2," reflecting on the return of iconic characters and the blend of nostalgia with new elements but persevering just the right amount of jank.
Ben looks for any way to fill the void left behind by X-men '97 and settles on a comprehensive mid-season review of "Doctor Who" Season 14. One highlighting standout episodes and new lore, with a meandering look at the ghost stories of M.R. James. Finally, the duo explores the concept of gods in fiction, discussing how various authors, from Terry Pratchett to H.P. Lovecraft, define and use gods in their stories.
