How about the social reckoning?
0:56
Yes.
0:57
We've got a very busy weekend.
0:58
This is maybe the busiest weekend of the year in terms of movies and TV shows.
1:03
And I think the highlight, or the biggest one, let's say, not the highlight, is The Social Reckoning, which is the sequel to 2010's The Social Network, which won a number of Oscars, including Best.
1:16
play for aaron sorkin aaron sorkin returns to write the social reckoning but this time he's also directing david fincher the acclaimed director of the social network is out uh a lot of other people are out too jesse eisenberg is not playing mark zuckerberg and it is jeremy strong uh atticus and brent resner who won an offer for their school for their store are also out And I have to say, all of those changes slash losses really do impact the social reckoning, which is a far cry from its predecessor.

The story, more recently, it is set in 2019 to 2021.

Finally this week, how about Animals?
21:40
Right
21:40
... to come out again.
21:41
So, like, right now, everybody's enjoying The Pit: Season 2, which I've seen quite a lot of and can vouch for.
21:48
It's really great.
21:50
I hope that a lot of the other shows that I really enjoyed this year, and that other people enjoyed, will make it back on the air.
21:57
When it comes to movies, there's a lot.
21:59
We get Emerald Fennell's Wuthering Heights, which I think people are really excited about, and The Bride, which is Maggie Gyllenhaal's take on the Bride of Frankenstein, which stars Christian Bale and Jessie Buckley, who, in another month, may be Oscar winner for Hamnet.
23:42
What do you hope people kind of take away from movies and TV?
