Host Francesca Amiker sits down with directors Joe and Anthony Russo, producer Angela Russo-Otstot, stars Millie Bobby Brown and Chris Pratt, and more to uncover how family was the key to building the emotional core of The Electric State . From the Russos’ own experiences growing up in a large Italian family to the film’s central relationship between Michelle and her robot brother Kid Cosmo, family relationships both on and off of the set were the key to bringing The Electric State to life.

Today on the 5: In a scenario that Philip K. Dick would surely appreciate, I misremembered having read the novel Ubik before. I just finished what I thought was a second reading of the well known book and by the time I finished I realized I had mixed it up with another book. Fitting!

Today on the 5: A few months back I talked about my hope that the open sourcing of the PebbleOS might lead to a return of that magnificent watch. Amazingly, it's happening and I can't wait!

Today on the 5: I have struggled for a while now trying to figure out how to get the volume right for our shows. I've always deferred low to avoid clipping us to shreds, but thanks to a suggestion from friend of the show Ant Pruitt on his podcast I'm trying something new out. Please let me know how it sounds!…

An Amazing Decision 5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: The 90s were a wild time for point and click games, and ideas you'd never expect ended up getting made into games. One of these bizarre specimens, an adaptation of the Harlan Ellison story I Have No Mouth, And I Must Scream , just got a remaster and I'm going to see what it's like.

Even Apple Feels The Heat 5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: There are reportedly some big shakeups happening inside of Apple after some of their Apple Intelligence projects failed to meet expectations. To me, the most interesting part of these stories is how they show the company allowing itself to deviate from its usual path.

The Theater Is Not Magical 5:01

12 days ago5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: After comments made by Sean Baker at the Oscars , I've been hearing a lot of movie folks saying that studio films must have a theatrical run before they hit streaming services. Some even suggest that there should be a 3 or 4 week theater exclusivity window . I've said it before and I'll say it again: this is one of the more asinine opinions out there.…

Hellraiser: Bloodline Workprint Review 5:01

13 days ago5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: One of the extras I really looked forward to in the Quartet Of Torment boxset from Arrow was a new workprint of Hellraiser: Bloodline . While I wish it was in better quality, it's undoubtedly a better version of the film compared to what was released theatrically. Best part? You can watch it for free!…

Zone 414 Spoiler Free Review 5:01

5:01

Today on rhe 5: Thanks to a listener suggestiuon, Lando and I watched a movie that we had both somehow missed from 2021 titled Zone 414 . If you only went by the first 15 minutes and a lot of user revfiews, you'd likely write it off as a low budget Blade Runner clone. Stick with it, because it becomes it's own thing pretty quickly.…

Today on the 5: You may remember there was a kerfuffle a little while back over the use of AI tools in correcting the language deficiencies in the film The Brutalist . There were even calls for the film should be disqualified from Oscars consideration. Honestly, I feel like the negative reactions in this case are misguided.…

The Benefit Of Caution 5:01

Today on the 5: Multiple reports indicate that Apple is delaying some of the more complex aspects of their Apple Intelligence product. As you'd expect, a lot of reactions to this are flying around but two make the most sense to me.

Sony Just Saved Me Money! 5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: Kojima Productions released a new trailer for the upcoming Death Stranding 2 this week , and it was every bit as weird and entrancing as I hoped. I was ready to go ahead and make an exception to my usual "no pre-order policy" in this case, and then I noticed a detail that killed that idea immediately.…
