Episode 139 - "Are you jealous you don't have this for Vancouver?" [Project Hail Mary, Hoppers]

Season 1 · Episode 150

Wednesday, April 15, 2026 • Duration 01:05:24

In the 139th episode of the Extra Buttery podcast, Jason and Robert discuss and give their first impressions on the HARRY POTTER remake, and how it all feels too familiar despite a brand-new cast and format. We then take a deep dive into PROJECT HAIL MARY (7:50), the first hit movie of the year starring Ryan Gosling as a high-school-teacher-turned-reluctant-astronaut tasked with saving the solar system based on the book by Andy Weir. Jason and Robert discuss what worked and what didn't, why they felt differently about the ending, and how this film might've been different with a different director. We move on to Pixar's newest animal-centric entry, HOPPERS (28:41), Gore Verbinski's GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, DON'T DIE (44:50), and finish with Robert's proclaimed "Canadian classic" NIRVANNA: THE BAND - THE SHOW - THE MOVIE (50:30).

Episode 137 - Holiday Catch-Up [The Running Man, Sentimental Value, Jay Kelly, Knives Out 3]

Season 1 · Episode 148

Tuesday, December 23, 2025 • Duration 01:21:42

In the 137th episode of the Extra Buttery podcast, Jason and Robert open with a long discussion about the pros and cons of the Oscars moving to YouTube. We then discuss why THE RUNNING MAN (15:13) was a flop (that maybe didn't deserve to flop). We then focus on the understated family drama from Joachim Trier in SENTIMENTAL VALUE (30:27), the George Clooney-driven JAY KELLY (37:11), yet another effective action thriller in the Predator franchise from Dan Trachtenberg's PREDATOR: BADLANDS (49:36), and close out with Rian Johnson's WAKE UP DEAD MAN (1:01:13)

Season 1 · Episode 145

Saturday, August 16, 2025 • Duration 42:03

In the second part of the blockbuster 134th episode of The Extra Buttery Podcast, Robert and Jason begin with the very formulaic but still thrilling F1: THE MOVIE (1:20) before the meat (hehe) of the episode with JURASSIC WORLD: REBIRTH (12:49), exploring how truly lame and uninteresting the famed dinosaur franchise has become.

Friday, August 15, 2025 • Duration 01:12:34

In the first part of the blockbuster 134th episode of The Extra Buttery Podcast, Robert and Jason discuss the latest SUPERMAN (4:44) from James Gunn, the hard left turn it takes from the previous iterations, and how Krypto the Superdog takes over. The superhero conversation continues with the newest entry in the exhaustive MCU with THE FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS (45:11) and reasons why it might not be the big clobberin' hit Marvel needs to revive moviegoers from superhero fatigue.

Episode 133 - "Ethan Hunt is not a horny individual!" [M:I - The Final Reckoning, Materialists, Ballerina]

Season 1 · Episode 143

Saturday, June 28, 2025 • Duration 01:13:38

In the 133rd episode of the Extra Buttery Podcast, Robert surprises Jason with news about a sequel to ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD, which will NOT be directed by Quentin Tarantino, and the potential return of the fantastic MINDHUNTERS. We start with MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - THE FINAL RECKONING (or is it Dead Reckoning Part 2?) (8:43) and why the series doesn't end with the bang you're expecting; the brilliant once-in-a-lifetime ANDOR (35:40); Robert's lukewarm reception to the THE PHOENICIAN SCHEME (50:07) despite being a big Wes Anderson fan; romantic drama THE MATERIALISTS (56:49), Celine Song's follow-up to the critically-acclaimed PAST LIVES; and FROM THE WORLD OF JOHN WICK: BALLERINA (1:03:39), which may or may not lead to a bigger cinematic Wick-ervese.

Episode 132 - "I call dibs on your Criterion Collection!" [ANDOR, THUNDERBOLTS, SINNERS & more]

Season 1 · Episode 142

Monday, May 12, 2025 • Duration 01:15:11

In the 132nd episode of the Extra Buttery Podcast, Jason and Robert wonder how the TV adaptation of Harry Potter will be received and how different it will be from the movies. They also catch up on arguably the best Star Wars show ever, ANDOR (8:41), and the latest season of THE LAST OF US (24:05). Both also agree that THUNDERBOLTS* (35:20) is a nice addition to the MCU before finishing with Ryan Coogler's excellent SINNERS (46:25), Rob's top pick spy thriller BLACK BAG (55:14), pseudo-superhero-action-turned-buddy-comedy THE ACCOUNTANT 2 (1:01:45) and share why WARFARE (1:06:16) falls short of director Alex Garland's previous work.

Episode 131 - "It's good to bring on a true hater for a change." [MICKEY 17, feat. Marina Bennett]

Season 1 · Episode 141

Monday, March 24, 2025 • Duration 01:02:49

In the 131st episode of the Extra Buttery podcast, Jason and Robert welcome special guest Marina Bennett and take a deep dive into Bong Joon-Ho's MICKEY 17. What was Bong trying to say and why didn't it work? Were our expectations too high? Do Mark Ruffalo's veneers deserve a Best Actor nomination?! What was Ylfa's obsession with Creeper sauce?!? So many, many things to discuss.
