"It always fits eventually."
Here’s a gift for the whole family from The Film Board’s clan to yours - the thugs went out and saw our first official show-sanctioned animated film this week, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. It’s a break from what we usually do on our monthly show and the movie itself is a bit of a break from what you might expect in animation as well as what comic book movies and movies with Marvel properties have become in the industry. This movie is very different.Listen to this show to hear how those differences sit with Tommy Metz III, Andy Nelson, Steve Sarmento, Pete Wright, and Justin 'JJ' Jaeger. This movie is generating an interesting amount of early buzz and heats up the holiday box office competition for a season that is without a Star Wars entry for the first time in a number of years. Can an animated movie win the holiday season? Should it? Come get our take with The Film Board here.

There’s a particular kind of energy that comes from walking out of a movie theater with a head full of thoughts, needing to unpack everything you just saw with someone who gets it. That’s the feeling The Film Board captures every month. Host Pete Wright gathers a dedicated panel of film enthusiasts-regulars like Tommy Metz III, Steve Sarmento, and Justin Jaeger, plus a rotating lineup of fellow movie lovers-for a roundtable conversation that feels like the best kind of post-movie debrief. They dive into the latest theatrical releases without holding back, so spoilers are a given. You’ll hear them dissect everything from a film’s most bizarre moments and puzzling narrative choices to those random, memorable details that stick with you. This isn’t a formal review show; it’s a lively, opinionated, and deeply informed discussion among friends who are genuinely obsessed with cinema. The conversations are fueled by that shared obsession, resulting in a mix of insightful analysis and unapologetically strong takes. Tune in to this podcast for the kind of candid, detailed, and engaging talk that makes you feel like you’re right there at the table with them, long after the credits have rolled.
