January 5, 2023 Movie Mike on Planet 93.9 with Dave and Darren — “Avatar: The Way of Water,” “Babylon,” “The Whale,” “Whitney Houston: I Wanna Dance with Somebody,” “Puss in Boots: The Last Wish,” and “Roald Dahl’s Matilda
Mike (Shulz) talks with Dave and Darren about Avatar: The Way of Water (enjoyable, even if Edie Falco was unaware that it hadn’t already been released, and bombed), Babylon (“absolutely the mess you think it is,” “thoroughly obnoxious,” “couldn’t stand it”), The Whale (“I would have flipped off the movie if I could have”), Whitney Houston: I Wanna Dance with Somebody (“It works, kind of, because it’s non-stop Whitney songs,” “a Wikipedia page,” “a PG-13 version of Whitney’s life, which feels wrong to me”), Puss in Boots: The Last Wish (“The script is great, and it’s filled with incredible jokes,” which the trailer somehow managed to avoid sharing audiences), and Roald Dahl’s Matilda the Musical (“It was decent, it was okay, and it has Emma Thompson as the bad guy.” Need one say more?).
“Avatar: The Way of Water,” “Babylon,” “The Whale,” “Whitney Houston: I Wanna Dance with Somebody,” “Puss in Boots: The Last Wish,” and “Roald Dahl’s Matilda the Musical”
