Megan starts this week\'s show with a quick review of Angel Manuel Soto\'s entertaining Latinx superhero film BLUE BEETLE (3:22). Next, she and Dave discuss Charlotte Regan\'s well-acted drama SCRAPPER (14:47), which follows a 12-year-old girl who connects with her estranged father. Then, we all cover Cory Finley\'s grim sci-fi satire LANDSCAPE WITH INVISIBLE HAND (26:54), which involves teens (Asante Blackk and Kylie Rogers) who decide to broadcast their courtship for an extraterrestrial audience, but also a lot more. In this week\'s Patreon exclusive audio, we talk about the winner of our alien poll, Robert Wise\'s 1951 sci-fi film THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL!\\xa0
