Episode 139 - "Are you jealous you don't have this for Vancouver?" [Project Hail Mary, Hoppers]

In the 139th episode of the Extra Buttery podcast, Jason and Robert discuss and give their first impressions on the HARRY POTTER remake, and how it all feels too familiar despite a brand-new cast and format. We then take a deep dive into PROJECT HAIL MARY (7:50), the first hit movie of the year starring Ryan Gosling as a high-school-teacher-turned-reluctant-astronaut tasked with saving the solar system based on the book by Andy Weir. Jason and Robert discuss what worked and what didn't, why they felt differently about the ending, and how this film might've been different with a different director. We move on to Pixar's newest animal-centric entry, HOPPERS (28:41), Gore Verbinski's GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, DON'T DIE (44:50), and finish with Robert's proclaimed "Canadian classic" NIRVANNA: THE BAND - THE SHOW - THE MOVIE (50:30).Original theme music, intro, and outro composed and performed by Michael Spicer
