The winner will be covered on the podcast in 2024! This year, there's a new twist: a chance for the Bums to cover a single movie that does not cleanly fit into a larger movie series. Vote on our Instagram story @CinemaBums every day of October to choose the champion! Tune in to hear Emmet and Wade break down this year's match-ups, meet Marmaduke, request romance, and declare Captain Ron "the greatest film ever put to film".

Does it live up to the legacy of the original and stand on its own two feet? Tune in to hear Wade ask the question about Hobie and Gwen, Emmet find out about the wrestling-fueled sequel to one of their favorite films, and DeAndre admit to his failed Morbius predictions. Thank you for listening, and please enjoy! You can support DeAndre's new short film Leave It At My Door right here!
