Popcorn Culture - Stuff We Missed + Movies That Should Return To Cinemas

It’s a slow week in cinema releases, but there’ve been a slew of movies that either never made it to the big screen here in Malaysia (or that we didn’t get to review), including The Holdovers, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, and Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, so we’re discussing them all and dissecting which one is worth watching and re-watching. Then on Take Two, we’re looking at the movies we wish would return to the big screen, since there’ve been a number of re-releases recently, including Sepet. And of course, we’re concluding with The B-Side, which is about the music of Mad Max.
