Episode 76: - Ad Astra & They Shall Not Grow Old

In James Gray's new science-fiction film 'Ad Astra', Brad Pitt is Roy McBride, an unnaturally calm and collected astronaut in a not-too-distant future where the earth is plagued by consumerism, space pirates, and a series of mysterious magnetic pulses that send our hero on an intergalactic quest to find out what truly happened to his missing father. Also, after a four-year hiatus, Peter Jackson returns to the screen in 'They Shall Not Grow Old', a World War I documentary with an emphasis on Britain's hyperlocal interpretation of the war and an absolutely stunning color-corrected computer-enhanced presentation of archival footage that ultimately weaves a tale of heroes, heartbreak, and reflection that's simply unmatched in the documentary space today. Finally, TV Movies are making a comeback with 'El Camino' and 'Downton Abbey', Netflix sees a not-so-surprising dip in profits, and which up-and-coming Oscar nominee is slated to play a villain in Robert Pattinson's 'The Batman'? Tune in to find out.
