Boom boom- acka lacka boom BOOM. Open the door. Get on the floor. Everybody talk about dinosaurs.

It’s a paleontologic episode this week as we have a fun FUN review of The End of Oak Street. Dinosaurs abound in this flick by David Robert Mitchell that stars, none other, than our person of the month: Ewan McGregor.

And we’ve got a great guest to join us for this blast from the past adventure movie: Victor Aragon from the Fandads blog. Victor’s a fellow critic from the Chicago Indie Critics Circle, and we had a blast talking about The End Of Oak Street with him!

Plus, we also aren’t going to waste having a guest like Victor on the show, we also ask Victor his top 5 Ewan McGregor movies.

Plus, if that wasn’t enough for everybody, we ALSO have one extra review for everybody at the backend of the show. Ryan caught the streamer, The Last House, on Netflix.

Keep on walking that Dinosaur y’all.

Love you all,

Top 3: Movie Chefs
Monthly Theme: Ewan McGregor

In Chicago, there’s this restaurant that I absolutely love called The Handlebar. It’s this kinda divey vegan/vegetarian pub that’s bicycle themed which could not be more up my alley. And they have this sandwich that’s a vegan Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich made out of mushrooms instead of chicken. And it’s my actual favorite food of all time. The house coleslaw is the exact right amount of tangy and creamy. And don’t even get me started on that sauce. The wet-dry cayenne kick that stains the bread with the fluorescent red you want from a Nashville. When it hits with the slight kick – not overly hot but enough for you to know it’s there. I love it.

Are you hungry yet? Are you imagining your own favorite food right now? Good. Because this episode is a food episode. The new Anthony Bourdain biopic called Tony is out, and we’re getting our butts in the kitchen to see what’s cooking.

And after our firsthand look into Anthony’s kitchen, Ryan and I got to thinking about how many chefs there are in film, and we decided to cover our Top 3 Favorite Movie Chefs. And these are the pros here guys – none of the amateurs here y’all.

Plus, we’re just wetting your pallets guys, because we have two more reviews for some streamers that you could literally watch right actual now in real life. Get this: Ryan caught up with The Dink, the pickle ball comedy, as well as The Devil’s Mouth – which might win the award for best name for a shark movie ever.

This is a good one guys. Make reservations while you’re listening and go out for your favorite food after this one. It’s a celebration of food, movies and movies about food here on CinemaJaw.

Love you all,

CinemaJaw. CinemaJaw. Reviews whatever The Movie Guy saw!!! Watch out – here’s comes CinemaJaw!!!

This is it you guys. We’re back in action with another HUGE review. Hopefully you already caught it; Spider-Man: Brand New Day! Spidey is back in full web slinging glory in the 4th installment of the Tom Holland stand-alone movies. I don’t even have a bit for this one. It’s just a major movie and I’m sure everybody at work has been talking about it.

Plus, without spoiling anything – Brand New Day has a brand new villain. And we thought it was a good time to do the Top 3 Spider-Man Villains. Get the web out of your heads and listen up y’all.

Plus, in what will probably be the BIGGEST 180 of the entire year, we actually found the time to check out another new movie, and we’re reviewing Gregg Araki’s I Want Your Sex. You read that right, and no it’s not a porno. It’s a real movie I SWEAR.

Get ready. Get webby. And get naked. It’s gonna be one of THOSE episodes on CinemaJaw.

Reviewed: The Odyssey
Guest: Brian Tallerico
Top 5: Christopher Nolan Scenes
Monthly Theme: Zendaya

This. Is. BIG. Epic – no less. We’re covering what is arguably the largest movie of the year, none other than Christopher Nolan’s summer blockbuster, The Odyssey. The film stars Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway, Tom Holland, Zendaya, and many, MANY more. It’s adapted from the Greek epic from centuries ago. And it’s one of the most anticipated movies of the year!

To cover a moment this massive, we had to get a massive critic as our guest. And who’s more colossal of a critic than the Managing Editor over at Roger Ebert? That’s right everybody, we went there and we invited on Brian Tallerico on as a guest critic this week, a whopping 5 months early this year!

Plus, since it’s not every week a Nolan comes out, we figured why not keep the ball rolling and make it a Nolan-a-palooza and make our Top 5 this episode our Top 5 Nolan Scenes

This is a big one guys. Gigantic, no less. Have I not made that point clear? Must I buy a finer thesaurus to please you all???

Love,

Monthly Theme: Steven Spielberg

It’s a bird! It’s a plane!! It’s… the same damn joke I wrote for James Gunn’s Superman film last year??

Well, what can I say? Superhero CinemaJaw blog post fatigue is the new Superhero film fatigue. How’s about this you guys – I promise to make it up to you all with a kick ass guest this week for our review of Supergirl – the newest James Gunn-o-verse DCU flick.

We have the one; the ONLY Matt Kubinski on as our guest critic this week! None other than CinemaJaw’s actual best friend Matt K is back to cover what he knows best: comic book movies. And we couldn’t be happier that Matt’s back on the jaw — it just feels… right

Plus, in addition to this absolutely delightful episode, we have a second review to round out the tail end of the show. Ryan has a review of Leviticus – a new queer horror film. How does this movie hold up in an already stellar year for horror? Listen up to find out y’all.

I loved recording this episode guys. And I know you’re all gonna love the listen. And if you promise to listen, I’ll promise to have a more original opening bit for the post on the next Superman franchise blockbuster.

Reviewed: Toy Story 5
Top 5: Pixar Characters
Guest: Ryan Oestreich
Monthly Theme: Steven Spielberg

It’s play time y’all. 

In honor of Toy Story 5, I, KP Fujiwara, thought it would be fun if I wrote the strangest thing I could think of as this episode’s post intro. When ya’ grow up, you don’t really have toys to play with anymore, so you have to learn to make your own fun sometimes. And that’s what I did. Was it strange for you??? I think it waaaaas.

Anyways, Toy Story 5 came out, and Ryan and I caught it! We have a review for you guys coming your way and we also sat ourselves down and figured out our top 5 favorite Pixar characters. And we didn’t do that alone either.

Ryan Oestreich, the GM at The Music Box theater is back on the show with big BIG news! Our favorite theater is getting a major upgrade that we discuss in this episode. Plus, Ryan (Oestreich) is sticking around with us the whole time and givers us a few of his most memorable movie theater experiences too. 

This week is like a big old celebration of movies and toys. When it’s typed out like that it sounds weird, but I promise it’s fun. Plus, a lot of things are weird when they’re spelled out before us but are ultimately acceptable. This entire post proves that point and I will die on that hill.

Love,

Reviewed: Disclosure Day, The Furious
Top 5: Spielberg Movies
Monthly Theme: Steven Spielberg

None of you know the lengths that Ryan and I had to go through to disclose this podcast to you all. And that’s because this is not just a regular episode of CinemaJaw… In this episode, we leak insane information. So insane, the government has been trying to stop us from giving out all of the juicy details. This week, we talk about Steven Spielberg’s Disclosure Day! This is—arguably—the first summer block buster of 2026, and we’ve got it reviewed for you early y’all!!

We also come bearing more hot information that the government doesn’t want you to know—we saw The Furious; a new Hong Kong kung-fu flick. The government has been keeping this review under wraps too, and our mission is to get the truth out there.

Plus, in honor of Disclosure Day AND Steven Speilberg month, Ryan and I wanted to recap our favorite Steven Spielberg films, which is really the hardest list I’ve ever had to make in my life. There are no wrong answers and it was tough as hell to narrow down.

…Wait… the review embargo is lifted… And we’ve got the clear to disclose whatever we wanted to?… So there’s no pressure whatsoever to keep things quiet? Damn…

Top 3: Campy Movies
Guest: Cati Glidewell
Monthly Theme: Steven Spielberg

Jaw heads, there are many mornings just like this one where I wake and I step outside. And what ends up happening is, I take a deep breath and then I’ll step outside. Then, like, bloody murder, I’ll scream from the top of my lungs: “Hey! What’s going on with that new He-Man movie???”

It happens all the time, and I’m truthfully not entirely sure why. But there it is. And let me tell ya’ – I’ve stumbled upon the remedy for that little problem of mine. It’s listening to this episode of CinemaJaw. Because, believe it or not, we got out to see Master of the Universe and we were ALL excited to talk about it; including our guest, our friend, and our fan favorite critic: Cati Glidewell. That’s right The Blonde In Front herself is with us to talk about a movie based upon a cartoon from the 80s.

Plus, we always love having Cati on to do our top lists, in case it wasn’t obvious from her previous appearances, so we decided to bring one more top list her way to talk about the top 3 campy movies. Now, what constitutes a “campy” movie is… a little ambiguous and we talk about that. The last thing we want is another repeat of emo-gate 2024 after all. And Cati helps us tackle the important issues like this one.

Oh – and one more thing – We also got out to catch the new Paul Rudd and Nick Jonas flick: Power Ballad. It’s from director John Carney and is called “Power Ballad” so in case it wasn’t obvious, we’ve got a movie about music out in theaters.

This week’s got a lot to love everybody. This is a fun one.

Love,

-KP
