Summer Blockbusters, Culture, and the Cost of Going to the Movies | Ep 071

You’ll get a nostalgic tour from Star Wars and Jaws to today’s remix-heavy slate, tying movie trends to cultural sentiment and even stock market moods. Kevin Freeman and Mike Carter break down the rising price of a family night at the theater, creative drought vs. hopeful themes, and how films can be weaponized by governments and agendas—or uplift with pro-family, faith-aligned storytelling. Highlights include Top Gun’s Pentagon partnership, China’s soft power pressure, Disney’s Lightyear backlash, and praise for family-friendly wins like Fantastic Four: First Steps. The show closes with how gold-backed spending can preserve purchasing power, plus a call for films that inspire, teach history, and reinforce values.
