Media Boat Podcast Ep. 290: Olympic Baby Dies Hard

Today we talk about Warner's new movie policies for 2022 and the death of the Die Hard franchise as we know it. Next, we have plenty of news from the Tokyo Olympics, as well as a reported live-action Pokemon series and a potential Black Superman film for HBO Max. Later, The Weeknd gets honored for his humanitarian work, and DaBaby gets in hot water over some awful comments he made at a recent show. We wrap it all up in Video Games with a recap of EA's EA Play showcase and Activision-Blizzard facing an employee walkout over their misogynist and racist company culture. We also have thoughts on Ted Lasso, Schmigadoon, and the Olympic Opening Ceremony.
