310 The Lost Bus, The Naked Gun, Eddington, Superman IMAX
Jun 2100:58:33Tap to summarizeWelcome to The Green Band — the podcast that explores movie trailers, entertainment, and apparently the future of content creation on the internet. That’s right -- Michael is at VidCon in Anaheim! This week, we’re checking out trailers for The Lost Bus — finally, a story for everyone who’s ever missed their ride and thought, “This could totally be a feature film.” Also, The Naked Gun is back, baby — proving once again that slapstick comedy never dies… it just gets recast. Then there’s Eddington, a period drama that stars at least one actor who’s definitely going to win something… even if it’s just our respect. And finally, Superman in IMAX. Because what’s better than watching a superhero save the world? Watching it on a screen so big you can see his pores. So get ready and strap in for a good time! This is The Green Band.

LIVE from SCV CineFest! Happy Gilmore 2, Alien Earth, Frankenstein, Wicked For Good
Jun 1100:39:12Tap to summarizeThis week, The Green Band is coming to you LIVE from SCV CineFest—where the tacos are spicy, the gear is expensive, and the bear mascot may or may not be method acting. The Green Band is the podcast that breaks down your favorite trailers so you can impress strangers with your film knowledge while you’re in line for free beer. This week we have four trailers that will really make you ask: Are we okay, Hollywood? Happy Gilmore 2 – because nothing says legacy sequel like a 60-year-old man in basketball shorts yelling at a golf ball. Guillermo Del Toro’s Frankenstein – where the monster journals his feelings and shops at Hot Topic. Alien: Earth – where the xenomorphs are back and apparently allergic to peace and quiet. And Avengers: Ozsemble, oh I’m sorry, we mean Wicked: For Good – the musical so nice, they charged us twice. So crack open something bubbly, hug your local monster, and let’s get into The Green Band LIVE!

308 Benedict Coulter, trailer editor of Top Gun, Forrest Gump, The Empire Strikes Back & Jurassic Park
May 9, 202501:03:05Tap to summarizeWelcome back to The Green Band—the comedy podcast where movie trailers are our main course and sarcasm is the secret sauce. This week, trailer G.O.A.T. Benedict Coulter joins us to break down the freshest previews in the game: Margaret Qualley goes full suburban chaos in Honey Don’t, Denzel reaches new heights (and depths) in Highest 2 Lowest, and Together might just be the most emotionally devastating film you'll pretend you’re not crying over. Plus, we’re locked, loaded, and emotionally unstable with Weapons, and we step into the ring with The Rock for The Smashing Machine.

307 Charles Yi, Trailer Editor for The Fantastic Four First Steps
Apr 25, 202501:20:01Tap to summarizeThis week on The Green Band, we're talking stretchy limbs, alien hunts, teen revenge, gothic vibes, and zombie chaos. And that’s just our group chat! First up, The Fantastic Four: First Steps trailer. And oh yeah - We’ve got the editor of the trailer - special guest Charles Yi joins Brian for an interview! Then, we’ll explore the Predator: Badlands teaser—because apparently Prey wasn’t terrifying enough. Also, I Know What You Did Last Summer is back and more stabby than ever. Wednesday Season 2 brings more dance moves, and more dread. And 28 Years Later is here to infect us all—let’s hope the rage virus hasn’t learned how to use TikTok or that might ruin my weekend. If you love trailers, weird tangents, and two guys talking with the confidence to make you think they know what they’re doing, then you’re in the right place. Welcome to The Green Band!

306 Kris McDonald, Editor of Karate Kid Legends Trailer
Apr 11, 202501:14:40Tap to summarizeIn a world… where trailers drop faster than Ethan Hunt from a helicopter, where karate is still king, AI dolls are still creepy, and somehow The Naked Gun is getting a reboot... This week, we’re breaking down the latest batch of trailers that made us laugh, cheer, and question Hollywood's caffeine intake. We’ve got Karate Kid Legends, Mission: Impossible: The Final Reckoning, M3GAN 2.0, The Naked Gun, The Phoenician Scheme, Murderbot, and Tron: Ares. So buckle up, because this episode is more explosive than a Tron light cycle powered by a murderbot with unresolved emotional issues. Welcome to The Green Band!

303 Jurassic World Rebirth, Bring Her Back, Freaky Tales, How To Train Your Dragon
Feb 21, 202501:02:54Tap to summarizeThis week on The Green Band, we’re diving claw-first into Jurassic World: Rebirth! Will dinosaurs ever learn to stay extinct? (No!) We also take a look at Bring Her Back—which sounds like either a thrilling mystery or what every studio exec says about Blake Lively... Not! Then there’s Freaky Tales! A movie title that sounds like an off-brand Goosebumps book, but promises to be a wild ride. And the live-action How to Train Your Dragon—because if there’s one thing Hollywood loves, it’s turning animation into real people doing the same thing but slightly less charming. Plus, we break down what’s hitting theaters this weekend, including The Unbreakable Boy—a movie title that’s either super inspiring or an Unbreakable sequel no one asked for. And of course, we’ll hit the latest industry headlines, because Hollywood news waits for no one… except Tom Cruise, who defies time itself. So grab your popcorn, buckle up, and let’s roll that Green Band title… because this episode starts NOW. Support the show! Subscribe and like on YouTube.
