New Projector Short! Past Lives' John Magaro is a loser mistaken for a hitman, and P.I. Steve Zahn is on the case in crime caper LaRoy, Texas, which is one of the better Coen Brothers impersonations, that I enjoyed quite a bit.

New Projector review! The Ghostbusters are back facing an enemy who wants to create a Frozen Empire, but the franchise is trapped between it's past and future, which between so many characters is weighing heavier than a proton pack.
