The 2026 Summer Movie Preview "Boom or Bust" Game

On today’s show, Sean and Amanda bring back the Summer Movie Preview game—with some additional clarity around scoring—where they preview every major release slated across the summer and predict its box office and Metacritic score (4:47). Then, Sean is joined by Daniel Goldhaber to discuss his new film, ‘Faces of Death,’ starring Barbie Ferreira. He cites how the attention economy has drastically impacted young people’s lives, why he’s pushing the envelope of including radical leftist politics into his work, and breaks down his personal experience with the studio system (1:28:52).
