All your movie, TV and gaming stuff under one roof (not literal)

Welcome to Screen Time: Episode 38 - your bubble-wrapped weekly guide to all things on the big, small, and streaming screens.

Stephen “Steps” Lowe is back to steer you away from the cinematic duds and straight into the good stuff, with box office movers, new releases, gaming updates, and a sprinkle of movie trivia that might just raise an eyebrow or two.

This week’s featured soundtrack is Good Will Hunting, a quietly powerful collection that blends Elliott Smith’s haunting songs with Danny Elfman’s understated score. Together, they give the film its emotional heartbeat - music that whispers rather than shouts, and lingers long after the credits roll. It’s an often-forgotten gem that deserves fresh ears.

On the movie front, Darren Aronofsky’s Caught Stealing promises a gritty crime thriller led by Austin Butler, Regina King, and Zoë Kravitz, while Bob Odenkirk returns in Nobody Part 2, directed by Timo Tjahjanto, with Sharon Stone joining the fray.

Plus, we count down the Duchy’s box office chart, from Zach Cregger’s chilling Weapons to James Gunn’s Superman: Legacy reboot.

There’s also news on George Clooney and Adam Sandler teaming up in Noah Baumbach’s Jay Kelly, Lili Reinhart stepping into the intense American Sweatshop, and a wild revenge story in If I Had Legs I’d Kick You.

Add in the latest gaming scoop on Guitar Hero’s creators returning to rhythm games, Eminem’s Fortnite fame, and Microsoft’s handheld Xbox, and you’ve got an episode packed with gems, laughs, and plenty of screen-time goodness.
