This week on the InSession Film Podcast, we discuss the best performances of the decade so far! We also talk some box office and the trailers for Frankenstein, Superman and Happy Gilmore 2.

– Box Office (4:24)
We begin the show this week by diving back into the box office as Thunderbolts* is set to lose about $100 million, which is unfortunate given that it’s Marvel’s best is quite some time. But it’s also concerning given Bob Iger’s comments a few weeks about about quality over quantity. One has to wonder if this changes things for Disney. 

– Trailer Talk (19:07)
As noted above, we wanted to give our thoughts on the new trailers for Frankenstein, Superman, Happy Gilmore 2 and Wake Up Dead Man. We especially had a lot to say about Frankenstein and how Guillermo del Toro seems to be making a classic del Toro movie. Superman and Happy Gilmore 2 also look promising, but we have some reservations that keep us from fully embracing those movies at this point.

– Performances of the Decade So Far (53:24)
In a few weeks we will be discussing the best movies of the decade so far, but first up we talk about the great performances we’ve seen in the 2020s to this point. There has been no shortage of phenomenal performances in the last few years. Narrowing this down to just five (or even ten, as you’ll hear in honorable mentions) was extremely challenging, but that’s also part of the fun. Deciphering the five performances for our lists makes them resonate even more loudly. With that said, what would be your Top 5 performances of the decade so far?
