Fall Preview Part 1: Can Neon's Winning Streak Continue?
David Canfield joins Katey and Chris to kick off our five-part fall preview, in which we take a close look at the lineups for every studio that has won best picture in the past 10 years. We're starting, naturally, with reigning best picture champion Neon, who shepherded Anora from Cannes breakout to best picture juggernaut, and are aiming to do it again this year. Can they continue their winning formula? Are they facing challenges from their fellow indie distributors? And can they finally get Elle Fanning the awards season respect she deserves? We get into it all, and much more. Don't forget that this week brings the launch of Prestige Junkie After Party, where you can get video versions of future episodes and lots of special bonus content. Join us there!

War of the Worlds at 20: Steven Spielberg’s Unlikeliest Blockbuster Still Packs a Punch
Katey and Chris look back at 2005’s July 4 weekend blockbuster, which was overshadowed at the time by Tom Cruise’s press tour but still holds up, with its dark metaphor for American life after 9/11 and what are still some of the most chilling action sequences ever made.
