Episode 202 - Trap, The Instigators, and a Pile of D23

This week we cover the Shyamalan film Trap, The Casey Affleck/Matt Damon flick The Instigators, and sequel-palooza that was D23.
The episode kicks off with Lauren reviewing the new M Knight Shyamalan movie, Trap. It sort of falls into that, "it's not unwatchable category" but it won't really blow your mind. That said, Lauren enjoyed it enough and she sold the guys on watching it when it streams, for sure.
Kevin then gives us a movie that is similar, except its at least already streaming, assuming you have Apple TV+. The Instigators is a heist gone wrong film starring Matt Damon and Casey Affleck (who Kevin does NOT hate). It's fine to watch on Apple TV+, but it's not a film wed recommend signing up for Apple TV+ to watch. Decent but not great. And if you're from Boston, you'll probably get more out of it...
Andrew quickly goes through the end of season 2 of What If...? on Disney+ before the gang jumps into D23. D23 had a surprising amount of content, nearly all of it sequels, prequels, or remakes. That said, it led to some really interesting discussion about the industry and what constitutes a success in Hollywood.

Hartnett was good in Oppenheimer. That definitely seemed like the start of a comeback, but Trap definitely has my attention

Yeah, it's nice to see him back now as less of a "hearthrob" so he can just be an actor now. He has more skill than he was given credit for in the past
