Show notes:

• CORRECTION: We misstated Elizabeth Banks‘ involvement with the Pitch Perfect franchise – she directed Pitch Perfect 2, and was initially signed to direct Pitch Perfect 3, but exited the project as director in 2016, reprising her acting role only.
• “The pirate shanty movie” starring Margo Martindale from early in the pandemic was Blow the Man Down, which we reviewed in early 2020:
  • FilmWonk Podcast – Episode #164 – “Blow the Man Down” (dir. Bridget Savage Cole and Danielle Krudy), “Lady Macbeth” (dir. William Oldroyd)
• We referenced a tweet by Ben Crew (@BenjaminCrew1) on Twitter:

Cinema has existed for over a century and Dracula has never met a dolphin in any movie.
There are so many stories left to tell.
