Happy Super Bowl Saturday!

It’s the Super Bowl! Do you care? As a kid growing up in LA in the ‘70s, I was a Rams fan. As a student at SMU in the early ‘90s, I was (admittedly) a bandwagon Cowboys fan. Now I don’t feel strongly about any team, but I enjoy hanging out with friends and watching all the ads and the halftime show. Aside from Usher’s performance, we’ll also have plenty of Taylor Swift reaction shots, which is fine by me because it annoys the people who can’t stand her and concoct crazy conspiracy theories about her. She’s enjoying watching her boyfriend play football — who cares?! Anyway, are you rooting for the Chiefs or the Niners? Will you watch the game at all? Let me know.

Speaking of Taylor (because we always inevitably do), Disney+ announced this week that it will stream “Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour (Taylor’s Version)” starting March 15. It’ll include four new songs, including “cardigan,” which is one of my favorites of hers. So if you missed the concert, and you missed the concert film in theaters, you can now enjoy it and sing along from the comfort of your living room. And if you missed our Breakfast All Day review of the extravaganza Eras Tour movie, here it is.

Super Bowl weekend also means slim pickings when it comes to new movies in theaters. There’s not much out there, and what there is, isn’t great. But Alonso and I tried to find some worthwhile viewing for you over at our Breakfast All Day YouTube channel:

• LISA FRANKENSTEIN. This horror movie/dark comedy/rom-com is a throwback to the kinds of films that made Winona Ryder a star in the ‘80s: “Edward Scissorhands,” “Beetlejuice” and particularly “Heathers.” Those are good. This isn’t. But the period costume and production design are on point, as is the goth rock soundtrack. In theaters.

• NIMONA. We’re so glad we caught up with this lovely Oscar nominee for best animated feature — it’s only been on Netflix since last summer. Riz Ahmed and Chloe Grace Moretz provide lively performances in this adventure about a wrongly accused knight and the shapeshifting young woman who insists on being his sidekick. The film is beautiful and offers a subtle yet meaningful transgender metaphor. Now streaming.

• PERFECT DAYS. In our continuing catch-up with the international feature nominees at the Academy Awards, we review this gorgeous Japanese film about a Tokyo toilet janitor enjoying the simple things in life through his daily routine. Think of it as a gentler “Jeanne Dielman,” featuring a quietly moving performance from the great Koji Yakusho. In theaters.

• Plus we did our MOVIE NEWS LIVE! again. It’s seriously becoming our favorite thing. This is probably how we’re going to do it from now on, so consider this your open invitation to drop by the channel at Noon PST on Fridays. We’d love to see you. Among the topics we discussed were the fate of “Coyote vs. Acme” at Warner Bros., Gina Carano’s lawsuit to get back on “The Mandalorian,” and the Oscars adding a casting category, which is a topic I’ll explore here soon.

And speaking of “Perfect Days,” here’s a fascinating New York Times story about how the incredibly cool and architecturally varied public toilets in Tokyo inspired director and co-writer Wim Wenders to make this film. Each one is distinct (and de-stinked, thanks to the lead character’s meticulous work), and lingering on all the high-tech details is among the film’s many pleasures.

While we’re on the topic of arthouse films, I highly recommend the latest episode of The A24 Podcast. It’s a lengthy conversation between Celine Song and Sofia Coppola, both filmmakers with distinctive visions and voices. Song’s feature debut, the gorgeous and melancholy “Past Lives,” is up for best picture and best original screenplay at this year’s Oscars. Coppola’s latest is the lush and dreamy “Priscilla,” about Priscilla Presley’s early years with Elvis. They go in-depth into their process and they ask each other the kinds of questions that might not occur to me, since I’m not a filmmaker myself. Take a listen! And if you’d like to enjoy our Breakfast All Day podcast, it’s always here in Apple and all the usual places.

One of my favorite parts of living in LA is that there are so many great, small clubs where you can go see a concert or comedy any night of the week. The intimacy of these shows provides such a rush and feels like a true privilege. As Nic has gotten older, we’ve loved taking him with us to a wide variety of performances, from Silversun Pickups at the Wiltern to Patton Oswalt at Largo (where Adam Sandler was among the surprise guests). Tonight, we’re going back to Largo to see Taylor Tomlinson perform, because Nic has become a big fan of her stand-up. Yes, we’re now at an age where our 14-year-old is introducing us to pop culture, rather than the other way around. I wasn’t familiar with Tomlinson until Nic started showing me YouTube clips of her stand-up, but I can see why the 30-year-old has become so impactful to this younger generation: She speaks candidly about topics that might have seemed too uncomfortable before, such as mental illness and her deeply religious upbringing. And now she’s gotten huge as the host of “After Midnight,” her own late-night show on CBS. Both of her performances are sold out tonight, so it should be a great crowd.

What concerts did your parents take you to as a kid? I feel so lucky in retrospect that my mom and dad brought me to a bunch of shows at The Forum in the ‘80s, including Duran Duran, Hall and Oates, Lionel Richie and the Prince “Purple Rain” tour (which is super awkward when you’re 12). Reply and let me know! Have a great weekend, don’t eat too much seven-layer dip, and I’ll see you back here next Saturday.
