Episode 153: Breathing In
Tubi or Not Tubi
CW: Discussion of concentration camps, colonialism, and their related horrors. In this bleak, sobering episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we deeply immerse ourselves in the dreaded reality of Breathing In, the 2023 film written and directed by Jaco Bouwer. The history of the world is so big, and Tubi aspires to be somehow even larger. When it comes to project as targeted as this one: sometimes the all-too-fantastic is also all-too-real.

Episode 152: Cinderella's Revenge
Tubi or Not Tubi
In this springy, whistful episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we throw ourselves into a bloody interpretation of a fairytale classic: Cinderella's Revenge, the 2024 film directed by Andy Edwards. You can always find some kind of Tubi Twist on a fairytale. That said, one must wonder: how will Cinderella get her revenge? What does Tubi have to say on the matter?

Episode 151: Synchronic
Tubi or Not Tubi
In this soaring, searing episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we casually have a difficult time expressing ourselves to our alleged best friend while taking Synchronic, the 2019 film directed by Justin Benson and starring Anthony Mackie and Jamie Dornan. The movies that Tubi provides for us somehow never fail to be strange. Even the modern ones with modern casts that have allegedly been seen by many people tend to confound.

Tubi or Not Tubi
This week on Tubi or not Tubi... we pretend as if a week was not skipped and also pretend that Abulele was not expected to arrive at Thanksgiving because we have SOME MORE TWOFERS to hold you all over while we organize our boats as we ride the river of life!

Episode 148: Vampire Bats
Tubi or Not Tubi
In this blood-suckling, eduactionally grandstanding episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we find ourselves agitating the wrong placental mammals in Vampire Bats, the 2005 film directed by Eric Bross and starring Lucy Lawless. Tubi tends to specialize in providing the genre of animal attack horror, and films like this fall squarely into that special category. What strange details will this one conjure, we wonder?

Episode 146: The Ruby Ring
Tubi or Not Tubi
In this hopelessly romantic, life-threatening episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we take an ill-informed journey into the past for The Ruby Ring, the 1997 film directed by Harley Cokeliss. Coming-of-age time-travel adventures come in many shapes, sizes and creeds. However, there is always the question of convention: will this flick follow them too closely, or break them too harshly? Only Tubi can tell...

Episode 145: Ghost Goggles
Tubi or Not Tubi
In this coma-induced vision of a Tubi or Not Tubi episode. We chastise a widow for accepting booty calls in Ghost Goggles, the 2016 film directed by Creep Creepersin. Tubi has such a deep well of wild children on wacky adventures, and almost every time there are unexpected elements... It is safe to assume this film is no different, and in being no different, it is ALWAYS different!

Episode 144: Tubi Woofers!
Tubi or Not Tubi
Oh, were you waiting for The Wait? Well, The Wait will have to Wait for reasons worth Waiting about. If you're lucky, you may be waiting forever! There totally most definitely isn't a specific reason related to human error and oppresive technological ecosystems that you shall Wait for The Wait. Besides, it's Quizmaster Pete's birthday! We must take the time to celebrate by doing a fun little twist on our Tubi Twofer Traditions!
info_outlineIn celebration of our fifth anniversary, Tubi or Not Tubi will be reviewing Tár, written and directed by Todd Field and starring Cate Blanchett.
When we consider the state of society in 2025, this film becomes even more prescient as a thesis on power, privelege, and cultural ignorance as predicated by the value systems of the fine art insititutional structures we often overlook.
Tár is a film so journalistically prescient that we are publishing our review of Tár on April 1st, a day of festive note that singlehandedly impacts the experience we at Tubi or Not Tubi are presenting to you today...
