| 0:00.0 | Hello, everyone and welcome to Slashfilm Daily. Today is Thursday, April 17th, 2025. On today's |
| 0:04.8 | episode of the show, we are going to open up the mailbag and go through some listener feedback. |
| 0:09.1 | My name is Ben Pearson. I'm an editor at slashfilm.com and I'm joined on today's episode by |
| 0:13.1 | Slashfilm staff writer and box office analyst Ryan Scott. Hey, hey, everyone. How's it going? |
| 0:17.7 | Ryan, I was trying to figure out what to do for today's show. Obviously, Sinners is coming out, so I was thinking about doing something vampire-related, |
| 0:24.5 | but then I remembered that Chris Evangelista and I broke down our top five vampire movies almost |

| 1:23.5 | Max, or it was last time I was, I checked anyway. But Chris was a little disappointed because |
| 1:29.1 | he was saying that the, and I got spoilers, maybe, that's the whole point of this email, maybe |
| 1:35.3 | spoilers for flow, but he was saying that the whale died in the movie. And David wrote in, |
