Podcast: “Mickey 17” Review, “The Studio” and “Severance”

Can director Bong Joon-ho live up to the hype of 2019's "Parasite"? Zach and Johnny are split on this week's episode.

It’s been a minute, but we’re back with a packed slate of movies and TV to unpack. On this episode we’re diving headfirst into Bong Joon-ho’s long-awaited return to the big screen (45:10).

It’s been nearly six years since director Bong Joon-ho released “Parasite” and blew minds on his way to a best picture win. Now, his follow up feature “Mickey 17” has arrived, featuring clones, class struggles, and yes, multiple Robert Pattinsons. But does it live up to the hype? We’re breaking down the social commentary, the shockingly adorable aliens, and how many times Rob Pats can die in a single movie.

But we can’t forget the small screen, especially when Apple TV+ is out here dropping back-to-back bangers. “Severance” Season 2 is ramping up toward what’s sure to be another mind-melting finale (24:26), and then there’s “The Studio” – a star-studded skewering of the Hollywood Industrial Complex bound to be the streamer’s next big hit (36:23).
