This week on the InSession Film Podcast, we discuss all the exciting news that came out at this year’s CinemaCon and continue our Best Picture Movie Series with the 1966 winner A Man for All Seasons.
– 2025 CinemaCon (3:19)
We begin the show this week by discussing this year’s CinemaCon and all the news that was revealed over the last week. Because we spent a fair amount of time nerding out last week over Marvel, we kicked things off with all the MCU news that dropped at CinemaCon. We also get into the Fantastic Four updates and Spider-Man 4 being officially titled Brand New Day. We then shift gears to talk about Avatar: Fire and Ash, which sounds exciting, and the new trailer for Tron: Ares.
– More 2025 CinemaCon (41:48)
As we continued to move on with our CinemaCon conversation, we talked about how the John Wick universe is continuing to expand, including a John Wick 5 movie that was announced. The live-action How to Train Your Dragon movie played in its entirety and they announced a sequel in the works. The reaction to Masters of the Universe was quite surprising and piqued our interest. The Beatles biopic movies were announced to be coming out all on the same weekend, which seems like a bad idea if you ask us. We couldn’t get to everything, but we had a great time digging into what CinemaCon had in-store for us this year.
– Best Picture Movie Series: A Man for All Seasons (1:20:45)
We continue this series with arguably the most underrated film of the ’60s in A Man for All Seasons. It’s a film that holds up extraordinarily well today, given its themes and conviction, and where we find ourselves with today’s political landscape. But that aside, it also serves as a bridge between Old Hollywood and New Hollywood, given its filmmaking craft and how it works in both worlds. It’s a film that isn’t talked about much, but it’s a really good film that isn’t undeserving of its Oscar. Even if it wasn’t the best film of 1966.
