We’re back behind the counter for Episode 151, and before anything else — yeah, we know. We totally forgot to hype up Episode 150. Consider this our official apology and a make-good. (It’s not often you hit 150 rentals without a late fee.)We kick things off with some World Series talk, wondering what could’ve been for the Toronto Blue Jays, breaking down the final stretch of baseball’s biggest stage, and once again proving we can somehow make any sport sound like a dad debating movie sequels.Then it’s time to flip over to Channel 2 Day Rental News, where the headlines are straight out of a toy box and comic panel: • 🚁 G.I. Joe/Transformers crossover heading to animation — what does that mean for the live-action movie universe? • 🦇 The Batman 2 updates — what role will The Penguin play in the sequel, and are we finally getting that darker Gotham we’ve been waiting for? • 💥 James Gunn and Darkseid — why DC’s new boss might be keeping the big bad on the bench after Thanos. • 🧱 LEGO’s new Goonies set — our wallets cry, our shelves rejoice, and our nostalgia levels go through the roof.In Previously Viewed, we pop in the VHS for the 1992 dark comedy Death Becomes Her, starring Meryl Streep, Goldie Hawn, and Bruce Willis. We dive into the camp, the chaos, and the groundbreaking effects that made it an early-’90s cult classic that’s aged like… well, immortality serum.And to cap things off, we roll out the very first edition of “Staff Picks”, where each of us recommends a hidden gem worth checking out — and this one’s a good one. (Think of it as the part of the store where you actually listen to the clerk’s advice.)So grab your membership card, rewind your nostalgia, and settle in — it’s 2 Day Rental, where the movies never die… they just get weirder with age.
