About this listen

Movies give us countless scenarios and situations the characters have to navigate. Well, how would YOU handle these situations in you were in their place? Amber, Scott and the occasional guest tackle this very topic. We're not a review show, but there are enough opinions between us you'll get a little of that too. We mostly try to keep it lighthearted and funny. Sometimes we succeed, sometimes not so much, but it's usually entertaining nonetheless, or at least we hopeCopyright 2026 Chainsaw Enterprises Art

  • E251 - Scream 7 - What Would YOU Do?
    Mar 20 2026
    This week on Cinema IRL, Scott and Amber are catching up with Sidney Prescott—now Sidney Evans—in *Scream 7*, where the only thing scarier than a new Ghostface is the "full-on nostalgia mode" of AI-resurrected dead characters. They’re debating the exact age a child should learn their mother is a legendary final girl and why Sidney’s daughter, Tatum, really needs to "suck it up, buttercup" when it comes to double-tapping a killer. Scott questions the tactical integrity of a police chief who forgets to check the attic, while Amber suggests that burning the entire house down is the only reasonable response to a home invasion. From the ethics of "bubble parenting" to the logistics of a laptop-based assault, the duo breaks down why you should never, ever trust a teenage boy with a tech hobby. It’s a masterclass in slasher survival where the golden rule is simple: if they’re down, you empty the clip.

  • E250 - How to Make a Killing - What Would YOU Do?
    Mar 18 2026
    This week on Cinema IRL, Scott and Amber are dissecting *How to Make a Killing*, where Glen Powell trades his leading-man charm for a high body count and a $28 billion inheritance. They’re debating the ethics of murdering your way to the top of the family tree while Scott gets "twitchy" over the screenwriters' blatant disregard for how irrevocable trusts actually work. Between Beckett’s "creative" use of archery and the sheer audacity of a grandfather who turns a family reunion into a *Most Dangerous Game* scenario, the duo questions if any amount of money is worth being extorted by an elementary school crush. It’s a sassy breakdown of why "making a killing" is much harder when the FBI is already mathing your crimes.

  • E249 - Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie - WWYD?
    Mar 16 2026
    This week on Cinema IRL, Scott and Amber are tackling the chaotic Canadian masterpiece *Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie*, where 17 years of failure culminates in a botched skydive off a 116-story tower. They’re debating the logic of using the discontinued 90s drink Orbitz as time-travel fuel and whether Matt’s "man of action" status is just a fancy term for being a public menace. Scott attempts to explain his "zipper theory" of the multiverse while Amber deals with the headache of a plot that involves accidental murder and human electrical conductors. It’s a hilarious breakdown of why some musicians should probably just stick to the open mic circuit instead of messing with the space-time continuum.
