How Do You Find Things to Watch? Plus A Box Office Recap, Expensive Theater Concessions, and More

On the July 8, 2024 episode of /Film Daily, /Film editor Ben Pearson is joined by /Film staff writer and box office analyst Ryan Scott to talk about the latest film and TV news.

In The News:


Listener email: Julie writes in: Love your show! I think the major reason people don’t go to chain theaters is not how big our TVs are or that everything is streaming, but the number of screens we have. We have 2 TVs, 2 laptops, and 2 cell phones for 2 people, and all have been used to watch movies. When I was a kid in the ‘70s, we had one TV in our living room that was controlled by my brother and my parents. If I wanted to watch anything else, I had to go to a movie theater. So when Bad News Bears came out, I saw it in the big chain theater 11 times! I love movies now, but do prefer one of the many repertory theaters we have here in Portland, Oregon. People are respectful and they serve beer/wine/cider and pizza without being expensive. I hardly ever go to our local chain theater, which is a pretty nice Regal, and when I do, there are usually about five other people in the theater and I never buy any concessions because it’s too expensive. I just can’t imagine it will be open much longer.

Listener email: Donnie from Florida writes in: Love the podcast and have been listening for years. Shout-out to Peter and Hoai-Tran Bui, I still miss hearing them. My question is how do you find things to watch on streaming services? I notice the menus are just awful. We can only find the current 8 to 10 things that that particular streaming service is pushing at the time. Is there a site or system that you, or anyone else at /Film, uses to find the needles in the haystack of horrible streaming service menus?

If Ryan happens to be on the episode, can he explain how the heck Peacock is still a thing?
