The Say Report

After our latest recording session we accidentally stumbled into a discussion about the newest animated Spider-Man series on Disney+ and decided to use that as an excuse to resurrect our mini review format in a bonus mini review episode. 

Sejohn indulged in Devon’s request and used his local ABC affiliate’s website to watch an episode of High Potential and now The Say Reporters are applying their vast knowledge of popular culture to determine if the episode was written by AI or if Rob Thomas (not the Matchbox 20 guy) is actually responsible for this extremely strange episode of television Following that up we discuss the futures of...

We kick off Season 9 of The Say Report with a look at the current events going on in our world, from the ban of TikTok officially going into effect, the “Sober Curious” movement and what that really means, and the strange occurrence in Philly where a fan was held accountable for their actions.  After that Devon has a PSA about “Donkey Kong Country Returns HD” that segues nicely into a discussion a...

Kicking off our Season 8 Finale we discuss the latest rumors and goings ons in the tech and video game industries as CES 2025 has come to an end.  Then Devon has some thoughts to share about “Den of Thieves: Pantera” which is perfect for Sejohn who has been left a bit confused by all of the discourse about the film he has been seeing online.  Finally we turn our eye to the goings on of Television...

It is the first episode of 2025 and the penultimate episode of Season Eight of the Say Report which means things are going to get a little out of pocket.  First we spend a solid amount of time discussing our video game experiences with Sejohn finally pulling the trigger on getting a PS5 and Devon getting tired of all the misinformation that is being released about the successor to the Nintendo Swi...

In a coda to the three films from Ben Affleck we covered in 2023, we take a look at a film that was delayed to 2004 to avoid competing with "Paycheck." That's right we are taking the time to Survive, "Surviving Christmas." As a bonus at the end we do an impromtu unboxing of one of NECA's Black Friday Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Blind Box offerings... which seems perfectly suited to the audio medi...

As a bonus now that both Say Reporters have experienced Jon M. Chu’s take on the source material we can embark upon a nice deep dive into the film and the fact that only half of the story has been told so far.  Next the...

The word of the episode is Innovation as Devon shares how he feels after having seen only half of a story, Sejohn shares his  thoughts about what James Gunn will do with the DCU, and both Say Reporters discuss the important difference between innovating on an existing piece of art and just blatantly copying something a la plagiarism.

Making good on a promise from two years ago, The Say Reporters are here to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of “The Godfather Part II” and come to learn an interesting lesson about what approaching celebrated films from the past from an academic and analytical standpoint can reveal not only about the film in question but the weird cyclical nature of the Hollywood Machine.  Episode Artwork by Dayle D...

In this scheduled Time Capsule episode we kick of December 2024 with an exploration and discussion about the twelve Simpsons shorts, produced by the Walt Disney Company, that are currently available to watch on Disney+.  What we discover is a complex and layered mess that actually sheds a light on the harsh truths of the series but in so doing may actually inspire us to appreciate it more going fo...

The film adaptation of “Wicked” they have been threatening to release for the past 15 years has finally come to a theater near you and while the Say Reporters have not yet seen it, its very existence is more than enough to spark conversation about their experiences with its forerunners and the various controversies surrounding the latest entry in the Oz-Verse Then to cleanse their palettes both Sa...

Surprising Devon, Sejohn has made the executive decision to bring things back to how they used to be on The Say Report and after Devon’s somewhat confusing review of the Joker sequel last week who could blame him. 

This week we make good on a Say Report promise, unfortunately that promise becomes more of a threat when it is revealed to be a discussion about not only the term “NashVegas” but the song by Russ Still and the Moonshiners… Special Thank You to Dayle Decker for reading the article from Russ’ website detailing the events. Then Devon saw a bunch of movies this week but the most important one to note...
