May 2026 Movie Preview

Author: Alternate Ending April 28, 2026 Duration: 1:20:10

To get the summer movie season started, Brennan is joined by Caleb and Gavin. The two of them force Brennan to talk more about Mortal Kombat II more than he wants, while glossing over such less-anticipated films like the new Star Wars. To get the show started, it's a quartet of brand-new releases for the movie roundtable: Caleb sees the much-hyped Nirvanna The Band The Show The Movie, Brennan drags himself to The Strangers: Chapter 3, and Gavin does a compare-and-contrast with Ready or Not 2: Here I Come and They Will Kill You.


The conversations on Alternate Ending-Movie Review Podcast begin with a simple, shared love for cinema, but they quickly go much deeper than that. This isn't a formal critique or a dry analysis; it's the sound of three friends debating, laughing, and unpacking what they just watched, with the listener right there in the room. The goal is practical: to help you decide where to spend your valuable time and money. You'll get clear, often passionate, opinions on which new releases are worth a trip to the theater, which are perfect for a cozy night on the couch, and which you might want to skip entirely. What defines this podcast is its perspective. As the hosts note, they aren't just another group of guys rehashing classic cult favorites. The dynamic between the two hosts and their third co-host brings a distinct and engaging balance to every discussion, covering everything from big blockbusters and hidden indie gems to classic TV series. Each episode feels like a genuine conversation, one that’s as much about the experience of watching as it is about the film or show itself. Tune in for thoughtful reviews, unexpected recommendations, and the kind of easygoing rapport that makes you feel like part of the group.
