Sean Chandler Talks To Perri Nemiroff | MCU Fatigue, Final Destination Hype, Finding Great Films, & Scream 7's Mess

In this episode of Sean Chandler Talks To, I'm joined by film journalist and Collider's own Perri Nemiroff to dig into the current state of movies.
We discuss how blockbusters are growing stale, whether theaters are booming or struggling in 2025, the shrinking conversation around films, and where to find original, exciting movies today. Plus, we dive into the MCU’s loss of excitement, Avengers: Doomsday casting, Scream 7 disappointment, and why Shudder is doing horror right.
