What BBN said about it

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorEJAE took home a slew of awards this year for her songwriting in the Netflix movie KPop Demon Hunters, and The Hollywood Reporter says she was honored tonight at Gyopo's Chuseok benefit.
Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorI love that movie so much.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorYou have not seen it.
Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorI read the entire plot synopsis online, and it sounds like a masterpiece.
Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorAlso, /Film ranks the ten most rewatchable nineties movies, and every one of them is my favorite.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorRewatchable means you watched it once. And a promised sequel is the cheapest word in Hollywood, just like a promised barrel of diesel.
Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorWhat Where the Mask Ends is a Netflix weekly period drama with Tian Xi Wei in a dual role, expected from October sixteenth.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorTwo roles. Wonderful. My pitch is Where the Mask Ends Again, ranked, ten sequels, all of them rewatchable once.
