    First Clayface Reactions Are Out!

    14/10/2026 | 1h 46 mins.
    The first reactions to DC Studios' Clayface are here, and the early buzz is surprisingly strong! After concerns about disappointing ticket pre-sales and opening weekend box office projections, the upcoming R-rated DCU horror movie is receiving praise for its gruesome body horror, disturbing visuals, and a potentially breakout performance from Tom Rhys Harries.
    On today's Kristian Harloff Show, we're breaking down the first Clayface reactions, including comparisons to classic horror films like David Cronenberg's The Fly and Sam Raimi's Darkman.
    Following the events of WandaVision and Agatha All Along, VisionQuest continues the story of White Vision as he searches for his identity and humanity. With James Spader returning as Ultron, could this series become one of Marvel Television's biggest surprises?

    Is Clayface In Trouble?! Tracking For 20 Million?!

    13/10/2026 | 1h 58 mins.
    Is James Gunn's DC Universe facing another box office problem? New reports suggest Clayface is struggling with advance ticket sales, with pre-sales reportedly the lowest of any DCU movie so far and early projections pointing toward an opening weekend below $20 million.
    On today's Kristian Harloff Show, we're breaking down the latest Clayface box office tracking, what the disappointing early ticket sales could mean for DC Studios, and whether James Gunn and Peter Safran should be concerned about the future of their cinematic universe.
    With Clayface arriving in theaters October 23, the R-rated DC horror movie has a reported production budget of approximately $40 million, making it considerably less expensive than traditional superhero blockbusters. But even with a smaller budget, could weak opening-weekend numbers put pressure on DC Studios?
    We're discussing whether Clayface can overcome its slow pre-sales, how important positive reviews and word of mouth will be, and whether the movie's horror approach could attract audiences closer to Halloween.
    More importantly, does Clayface need to perform like Superman or Supergirl to be considered successful, or should DC Studios be judging its smaller, genre-driven projects by an entirely different standard?

    THEY'RE BACK! The SchmoesKnow Movie Show!

    08/10/2026 | 1h 36 mins.
    Could Tom Cruise's Digger become one of Hollywood's biggest box office disasters of 2026?** New reports suggest that Warner Bros. could be facing a staggering **$250 MILLION loss** on Digger, raising major questions about the film's budget, box office performance, and what went wrong.
    On today's **Kristian Harloff Show**, we're breaking down the latest financial reports surrounding **Digger**, the Tom Cruise movie that's now generating headlines for all the wrong reasons. How does a major Hollywood production starring one of the biggest movie stars in the world end up facing a potential loss of this magnitude?
    What does this mean for **Tom Cruise, Warner Bros., and the future of expensive theatrical movies**? And with major changes happening throughout Hollywood, could Digger become another warning sign for studios spending enormous amounts on films that struggle to find an audience?
    We're also diving into some major **DC Studios** news!
    The upcoming **Deathstroke & Bane movie** reportedly has a surprising new title! What does this mean for the future of **Slade Wilson, Bane, Batman**, and James Gunn's DC Universe? Could this project help expand the villain side of the DCU, and how might these characters eventually connect to the larger Batman franchise?
    Then there's a fascinating look at what could have been with **Green Lantern**.
    New concept art has been revealed from the **scrapped Green Lantern HBO series**, offering a glimpse at a very different direction for DC's cosmic heroes. Unlike the more grounded approach of the current **Lanterns** series starring **Kyle Chandler as Hal Jordan and Aaron Pierre as John Stewart**, this earlier project appears to have embraced more of the cosmic spectacle associated with the Green Lantern mythology.
    Would fans have preferred a more space-focused Green Lantern television series? And after the recent Lanterns season, should DC Studios explore more of the Green Lantern Corps, Oa, and the larger cosmic DC Universe?
    Finally, **Fast Forever** could be bringing some fresh faces into the franchise! With the next installment of **Fast & Furious** preparing to continue the long-running action series, reports suggest new talent could be involved. Is bringing in new blood the right way to reinvigorate the franchise, or should the final chapter focus on **Vin Diesel, Dominic Toretto**, and the characters who made Fast & Furious a global phenomenon?

    Michael Bay In Talks To Return To Transformers With Steven Spielberg!

    07/10/2026 | 1h 47 mins.
    Michael Bay and Steven Spielberg are coming back to Transformers! Paramount is developing the next live-action Transformers movie, with Steven Spielberg returning to oversee the creative direction of the franchise and Michael Bay reportedly in talks to get back behind the camera.
    On today's Kristian Harloff Show, we discuss what this means for the future of Transformers, whether returning to the style of the original movies is the right move, and if Michael Bay is the filmmaker Paramount needs to bring the franchise back to blockbuster status.
    The original Transformers movies became massive worldwide events, but the franchise has gone through several different creative directions since Bay stepped away from directing after Transformers: The Last Knight. Could putting Spielberg and Bay back at the center of Transformers be exactly what the franchise needs?
    What should the next Transformers movie look like? Should Paramount embrace the huge action and spectacle of the original Bay movies, or combine that scale with the character-driven approach audiences responded to in Bumblebee?
    Then we turn to DC Studios' Clayface.
    Early box office tracking has the upcoming R-rated DCU horror movie opening somewhere around $23 million to $33 million domestically. On the surface, that doesn't sound particularly impressive for a DC movie — but there's one HUGE factor that changes the conversation.
    Clayface reportedly only cost around $40 million to make.
    Could Clayface prove that DC Studios doesn't need every comic book movie to be a $200 million blockbuster? If James Gunn and Peter Safran can produce smaller, genre-driven DC movies at controlled budgets, a $23 million opening could actually represent a very different kind of success.
    We discuss whether Clayface could become the blueprint for lower-budget DCU movies, what it needs to make worldwide to succeed, and whether strong reviews and Halloween timing could push the movie beyond its current projections.
