Echo Chamber - 178

It's Christmas, and as a treat, you get another episode of @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ We finally check out the coupon scam movie on Prime Video @amazonprimevideo and then it's all bout the new big budget, ensemble cast, movie Netflix @netflix has just dropped!

'Queenpins' is written & directed by Aron Gaudet & Gita Pullapilly. Dejected and frustrated suburban housewife, Connie (Kristen Bell) feels her sacrifices have never been appreciated and she has been overlooked by her husband Rick, her loved ones and the rest of society. She ropes in her best friend, JoJo (Kirby Howell-Baptiste), to an illegal coupon club scheme, she's cooked up, scamming large corporations out of millions of dollars. It draws the attention of law enforcement, and hapless loss prevention officer Ken Miller (Paul Walter Hauser). His persistance then brings in U.S. postal inspector Simon Kilmurry (Vince Vaughn), and they both have their own reasons for bringing the scammers to justice.

Adam McKay writes & directs 'Don't Look Up' with help from David Sirota. Kate Dibiasky (Jennifer Lawrence), an astronomy grad student, and her professor Dr. Randall Mindy (Leonardo DiCaprio) make an astounding discovery of a comet orbiting within the solar system. The problem - it's on a direct collision course with Earth. The other problem? No one really seems to care. Turns out warning mankind about a planet-killer the size of Mount Everest is an inconvenient fact to navigate. With the help of Dr. Oglethorpe (Rob Morgan), Kate and Randall embark on a media tour that takes them from the office of an indifferent President Orlean (Meryl Streep) and her sycophantic son and Chief of Staff, Jason (Jonah Hill), to the airwaves of The Daily Rip, an upbeat morning show hosted by Brie (Cate Blanchett) and Jack (Tyler Perry). With only six months until the comet makes impact, managing the 24-hour news cycle and gaining the attention of the social media obsessed public before it's too late proves shockingly comical - what will it take to get the world to just look up?
