On the May 15, 2020 Episode of /Film Daily, /Film editor-in-chief Peter Sciretta is joined by /Film managing editor Jacob Hall, weekend editor Brad Oman, senior writer Ben Pearson and writers Hoai-Tran Bui and Chris Evangelista to discuss what they’ve been up to at the Water Cooler.

At The Water Cooler:

  • What we’ve been Doing:
    • Peter went to the dog beach and that was the most alive he’s felt in 2 months, and started doing DDP Yoga again.
    • Brad received an Empire Strikes Back 40th-anniversary package from Hasbro, built the Playmobil version of the Ghostbusters firehouse
    • Hoai-Tran is out of quarantine!
    • Chris released another episode of 21st Century Spielberg.
  • What we’ve been Reading:
    • Chris read The Men Who Would Be King.
  • What we’ve been Watching:
    • Chris and Ben watched Capone.
    • Peter and Brad saw Josh Gad’s Back to the Future reunion on YouTube.
    • Peter started watching Dave, and watched the Survivor finale with friends over FaceTime.
    • Brad watched The Perfection, Coffee & Kareem, The Wrong Missy, Solar Opposites, rewatched The Cable Guy, Not Another Teen Movie
    • Jacob watched Bad Times at the El Royale, Z, Cursed Films, The Hoarder, Paranormal Activity 3, and Where the Heart Is. He also finally finished The Outsider.
    • Ben finished Never Have I Ever, watched Deliverance for the first time, and rewatched Wonder Woman.
    • Hoai-Tran watched Celine and Julie Go Boating, Cinema Paradiso, got hooked on Itaewon Class, and thinks Community season 5 is actually good.
  • What we’ve been Eating:
    • Peter went to Knotts Berry Farm and picked up some Boysenberry treats and ate those for an Ordinary Adventures Video (coming next week). Also, we got a make your own Funnel Cake kit and made that, somewhat unsuccessfully. On the way back from the dog beach we stopped at Slaters 50/50.
