• Episode 561: Black Phone 2, Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein (With Katie Walsh)

  A quick but thrilling episode to end your week here at Breakfast All Day. First, we review "Black Phone 2," the sequel to 2022's "The Black Phone," and who among us expected we'd be getting one of those? Ethan Hawke returns to make more obscene phone calls. In theaters. Then, the always brilliant Katie Walsh fills in for Alonso on a review of "Frankenstein." This is the movie Guillermo del Toro has wanted to make his entire life, and it's everything you'd imagine it would be. Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi and Mia Goth star. In select theaters now before streaming on Netflix Nov. 7. No movie news livestream this week because Alonso is traveling. Thanks for joining us!

• Episode 559: Roofman, Urchin, Movie News LIVE!

  We're continuing to blaze a trail through the many, many movies opening on October 10 here at Breakfast All Day.  Earlier this week, we reviewed TRON: ARES, A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE and KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN. Today, we discussed: ROOFMAN: Channing Tatum is ridiculously charming as a robber who escapes from prison and hides inside a Toys "R" Us store for six months. This actually happened. We enjoyed Tatum's performance, and the cast is strong, but the tone is off from indie director Derek Cianfrance. In theaters. URCHIN: Harris Dickinson makes an auspicious filmmaking debut with this gritty and intimate tale of addiction. Dickinson writes, directs and has a small supporting role, but Frank Dillane is the star as a young man trying to get clean but getting in his own way. In theaters. MOVIE NEWS LIVE! This was a lengthy one since we took last week off and there's so much to discuss. Among this week's topics were "Marty Supreme," the Riyadh Comedy Festival, the Melania Trump documentary, Rush reuniting with a new drummer, and the Smashing Pumpkins smoothie at Erewhon. We're hoping to go live again next Friday, so stay tuned for details. Thanks for being with us during this busy time!

• Episode 558: Tron: Ares, A House of Dynamite, Kiss of the Spider Woman

  October 10 is such an insanely packed week that we wanted to review a few of the new releases a little early here at Breakfast All Day: TRON: ARES: The third movie in the "Tron" series has a dopey script but extremely cool visual effects and a great soundtrack from Nine Inch Nails. See it on a giant screen and pretend you're watching a two-hour music video. Jared Leto, Greta Lee and Evan Peters star. In theaters this weekend. A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE: Kathryn Bigelow is back with a sharp, tense tale about what happens when an unknown country launches a nuclear strike against the United States. Rebecca Ferguson, Anthony Ramos, Tracy Letts, Gabriel Basso and Jared Harris are among the incredible ensemble cast. This is one of the year's best. In theaters this weekend before streaming on Netflix Oct. 24. KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN: This splashy movie musical from "Dreamgirls" director Bill Condon features dazzling production numbers, lush production values and great performances from Jennifer Lopez, Diego Luna and Tonatiuh, who is going to be a star. In theaters this weekend. Check back with us on Friday when we'll have reviews of "Roofman" and "Urchin" as well as Movie News LIVE! Join us at our YouTube channel at Noon Pacific. Thanks for being here.

• Episode 557: Good Boy, Play Dirty, Are We Good? reviews

  We'll spin around and wag our tails for a treat -- we're kinda shameless that way here at Breakfast All Day. October begins with reviews of three very different films: GOOD BOY, a lean and clever horror movie told from a dog's perspective. Indy, who's director and co-writer Ben Leonberg's own retriever, is actually the best boy. And in case you're worried: He's OK at the end. In theaters. PLAY DIRTY, a listless action comedy from director and co-writer Shane Black, who's had a much better track record with this kind of movie in the past ("Kiss Kiss Bang Bang," "The Nice Guys"). Mark Wahlberg and LaKeith Stanfield lead an ensemble cast. Streaming on Prime Video, but you should avoid it. ARE WE GOOD?, an intimate documentary that looks at the life and career of comedian and "WTF Podcast" host Marc Maron. In particular, it focuses on how he's working through grief after the death of his girlfriend, filmmaker Lynn Shelton. We liked this. In theaters. Next week is nuts, with about eight movies coming out that have awards potential, or at least year-end buzz. So keep your ears open, and we'll help guide you through this busy time.
