Disney Plus Offering 'Mulan' for $29.99 Could Turn Out to Be a Historic Event

Ever since Covid-19 forced the closure of movie theatres in March, the most unsurprising news stories have been theatrical releases getting delayed or studios moving a movie to either streaming or premium VOD. Movie theatres in many parts of North America remain closed but movie studios have a lot of pictures stuffed on the shelf that are not being seen and not making any money.

The Breakdown of 'Desperados' and 'Color Out of Space', and Remembering Olivia de Havilland and Alan Parker

This week is a jam-pack episode of The Movie Breakdown even though we only have two movie reviews for you, but they are both 2020 releases. We've got a girls' road trip mixed with romantic comedy in Desperados and Nicolas Cage starring in an adaptation of a H.P. Lovecraft horror, C olor Out of Space . We also remember true Hollywood greats in major movie star of the Golden Age and two-time Oscar winner, Olivia de Havilland and the director of a diverse slate of great movies in filmmaker, Alan Parker. As well, we look at the historic pact between AMC Cinemas and Universal studios that shortens the theatrical window to 17 days, and we discuss those implications. As always, we had a great time recording the show and if you love it, please spread the word on social media.

The movie theatres are opening up again in Ontario, so that means that for the first time since March that we are reviewing some theatrical releases. This includes an animated adventure that isn't coming to the United States until next year but is the big new release in Canada in The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run. The other theatrical release is the Russel Crowe starring thriller, Unhinged . We also review two 2020 movies that are streaming on Netflix including the Jamie Foxx starring twist on the superhero genre mixed with police procedural in Project Power and a different take on the romantic teen comedy with Banana Split . Plus, we look at talented female directors like Olivia Wilde and Nia DaCosta being hired to helm big tentpoles and discuss if this is true change in Hollywood or just a fad. As always, it was a great time recording the episode and we are so thankful for your weekly support. We hope you love the show as much as we do, and if you do, please help us ou
