The Box Office Podcast

A weekly conversation about the weekend box office between myself (Scott Mendelson) and a few younger (Jeremy Fuster), hipper (Ryan Scott) and cooler (Lisa Laman) entertainment journalists. Spoiler: I am what they grow beyond.

Tuned in for Chen got almost no Chen

Huge Chen head from way back, tuned in for that reason. He is barely allowed to chime in?

Poorly Edited

Episodes are so heavily edited that it’s become nearly impossible to follow a single train of thought. One person speaking will abruptly fade into someone else speaking before they can even finish a sentence. Hosts talking over one another becomes clipped audio mush with zero clarity. It’s a mess.

This is the best movie biz podcast!!

I really love all of the box office movie knowledge these guys drop on us every week!! I also love all of the special guest appearances!!!

Found the best Box Office podcast

I have been looking for a box office podcast that provides information and a bit of commentary rather than commentary with a bit of information. I heard Scott on BO Boys and loved him. (Do NOT subscribe to BO Boys, by the way…just a couple of guys who love to hear themselves talk and provide very little insight and even less useful or interesting information.) Scott and his terrific friends give us everything we need to stay up to date on what is happening in the movie world. Nice concise chats and respectful conversations provide the listener with current, historical and future perspectives and data. Love them and love this podcast. Look no further!!

About Time

Finally, Box Office Pundit Scott Mendelson headlines his own hour to go over the Blackjack game that is how well movies do individually in our modern cinematic environment, and other tangents. Very enjoyable.
