A look at trailer "leaks" and the cynical studio practice of drumming up hype. Spider-Man: No Way Home defines a new wave of marketing while denying it is doing that very thing. It's pure Cynema.

We finally got our Ghostbusters 3 and sure enough the Internet is awash in anger. This episode posits that maybe, just maybe this "anger" is nothing more than displaced grief. SPOILERS AHEAD!

The abuse of due process is clear in the wake of the Brian Laundrie, Gabby Petito case. The bigger picture is a warning for all of us.

Halloween Kills has a message about mob mentality & us being monsters. Recent online reaction by fans & opposing views underscore this. An examination of this and a full on, supported REVIEW of the latest installment. SPOILERS AHEAD!

The normalization of sexualization gave us Britney Spears. A look at the collective guilt everyone bears in a world that now sees the destruction of a human life as public entertainment and the person as a commodity.

The media continues its push to fuse journalism with entertainment and we are all the collateral damage of this campaign. A look at how the recent Gabby Petito incident underscores a major cynical trend toward dangerous and uninformed ends that further divides us as a society.

A Twitter thread discussion on James Wan's recent horror offering, Malignant inspired this episode. I watched as a tribal, "you must be on one side of the discussion, and it's our side," conversation play out on the social media platform. A look as to why critical thinking and not blind fandom is imperative in demanding better of not just our entertainment but our lives and society as well.

Please reference my previous episodes: EP 81: Designer Horror EP 2: Jaws the Worst EP: 26: Halloween: Then, When and Now? EP27: The Pronouns of Fandom EP 7: Critical Thinking

Cynema is about demanding better. This episode looks at the recent Netflix deal with a Tik Tok "star" and the resources wasted on Adam Sandler's "Hubie Halloween" and Tom Green's "Freddie Got Fingered." Did they really waste incredible amounts of money to just prove a point?
