Project Hail Mary Vs Scarpetta; They Will Kill You VS The Tower S1; Ready or Not Here I Come VS Badland : Road to Fury

Welcome back to the podcast where we put the biggest theatrical releases up against the best of home streaming. This week, the full crew—host Tosin, Shaun Harris, Sharon Bollen, and Holly Nessling—are back together and facing a major cinematic disagreement that might just tear the show apart. On the Big Screen The crew heads to the cinema to experience what is arguably the biggest film of the week, but not everyone is on board: Project Hail Mary: Based on the novel by Andy Weir, this Ryan Gosling-led space epic has caused a massive "schism" on the podcast. Tosin and Sharon are all-in on this emotional and visually immersive journey, praising its dual performance and "transcendent" quality. Shaun, however, found it "pretentious" and "sickly." We dive deep into the science, the relationship between Grace and Rocky, and why this is a must-see on an IMAX screen. Ready or Not Here I Come: The follow-up to the 2019 cult hit. While it might not have the surprise factor of the original, the crew discusses how it holds its own and why Samara Weaving continues to dominate the genre. They Will Kill You: A chaotic, "Gonzo" secret screening set in a nine-story Gothic hotel. Think Black Snake Moan meets Deadpool with a healthy dose of cartoonish violence and a cast drawn from "out-there" fields. On the Stream Scarpetta (Amazon Prime): A star-studded adaptation of the Patricia Cornwell novels. Despite a cast that includes Nicole Kidman, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Bobby Cannavale, Holly and Tosin find the series a bit "meh." We discuss the "timey-wimey" plot, the odd inclusion of AI, and that frustrating cliffhanger ending. The Tower Season 1 (ITVX): Badlands: Road to Fury: Shaun digs up this 2014 gem (originally titled Young Ones ). We discuss the sneaky retitling by Amazon and its slow-burn, futuristic Western vibes. A Fond Farewell The crew takes a moment to pay tribute to the late Chuck Norris . From Walker, Texas Ranger to the iconic internet memes, we remember a legend who was a massive part of our cinematic childhoods. The Verdict In one of our closest races yet, Cinema narrowly edges out the streaming platforms with a score of 3.34 to 2.91 . It seems the big-screen experience (and a talking alien spider) was enough to take the win! Find us on all social media platforms @NetflixVsCinema and let us know: Are you Team Tosin or Team Shaun on Project Hail Mary ? Is Netflix killing cinemas? Each week we weigh up what we've seen in cinemas with what we've watched online at home and figure out which provided the best time. At least, we did before COVID jumped in and declared Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney + and friends the winner. Listen and
