Hot July Movies (& a “Thor: Love and Thunder” Review) on “Good Morning Texas”

July Movies

I was on Good Morning Texas today, talking about all the biggest movies opening this month.

Click HERE to watch the segment, then watch the latest trailer for Nope below!

RAPID REVIEW- “Thor: Love and Thunder” Suffers from Its Own Director

Thor: Love and Thunder finds the Norse god at a major crossroads in his life. Without a battle to fight or love to follow, Thor (Chris Hemsworth) is listless and lost. His ex-girlfriend, Jane Foster (Natalie Portman) is inexplicably drawn to New Asgard during her own personal struggle and together they must battle a new threat who plans to murder all of the Gods. 

Thor: Love and Thunder has two main issues working against it.

Biggest June Movies on GOOD MORNING TEXAS

I joined Good Morning Texas today to talk about some of the biggest movies opening this month, like Jurassic World Dominion, Lightyear and Elvis. Click HERE to find the segment and take a minute to watch the trailer for Facing Nolan (the Nolan Ryan documentary) below. That’s playing at select Studio Movie Grills so make sure you look for tickets online before heading to the theater. While you’re here, remember to check the Free Movie Passes page to see what I’m giving away. Last time I looked, there were a handful of passes left to see Lightyear in Dallas, Austin and San Antonio!

Free Screenings of “Lightyear” in Dallas, Austin & San Antonio

I teared up the first time I saw the trailer for Lightyear. I’m not entirely sure why, though it might have been a Pavlovian response to ANYTHING related to Toy Story. There’s something about Chris Evans in the role of our favorite Space Ranger that also takes Lightyear to another level. I’m so excited to give away free passes to this film, and hopefully enough to take your whole family (or close to it).

In fact, if you think for a second that you don’t need to see this film, just watch the trailer below and see how quickly you change your mind! Then click HERE to see Brian and Charles in Dallas or HERE if you’d like to see it in Austin. Double check that you’ve claimed passes in the correct city!

Free Screenings of “Cha Cha Real Smooth” in Dallas & Austin

Times are tough right now. We need some sweet movies to soothe the ick and lucky for us, Cha Cha Real Smooth is coming to theaters and Apple+. It stars Cooper Raiff (who also wrote and directed) as a college graduate who works as a party-starter while he figures out what to do with his life. It was a big winner on the film-festival circuit and received countless swooning reviews from critics. It also stars the adorable Dakota Johnson and Leslie Mann, which is a solid score for a young filmmaker!

See “The Bob’s Burgers Movie” EARLY & FOR FREE

There are few things my family can agree on when we’re watching TV together. We usually just sit in front of the TV and fight until the news comes on, unless we find Bob’s Burgers. When that happens, everyone goes quiet and a joint decision is made: Bob’s it is. Of course, the debate starts once again when the 30 minute episode ends but that won’t happen during The Bob’s Burgers Movie because it’s a solid hour and 42 minutes long.
