We lost a legend this past weekend. One of the most profitable and prolific artists to ever touch the music scene, DMX, left us. Though we spoke about him last week we had to pay our respects in full as we seek to recount and remember what the icon meant to us. This past weekend we hosted another 2 Black Nerds Movie Night as we watched the film 'THUNDER FORCE' on Netflix. Also as another week has gone by another episode of 'FALCON AND THE WINTER SOLDIER' has come out, and this time the Dora Milaje have some things to say as well. We also have some news to break about upcoming films and we also had to discuss a huge event that happened this past weekend, 'WRESTLEMANIA 37'

Cap is that you??? Hell naw it ain't. The 2nd episode of 'FALON AND THE WINTER SOLDIER' is here and boy do we have some things to unpack. Amazon Prime has been killing it lately and they just added another amazing show to the ranks 'INVINCIBLE', an animated series based off the comic book of the same name. Also Jordan was able to hit the theater again this past weekend, catching the film 'NOBODY' an action packed movie starring the Saul himself Bob Odenkirk . This past weekend James Gunn finally released the trailer to his rendition of 'THE SUICIDE SQUAD' and boy was it a fun trailer. Among all these things there's of course some news to get to featuring Issa Rae, the DCEU, and some news dealing with anime. Hope you enjoy.

Yerrrr!!! This is part 2 of a very special double header of the podcast. The boys from Evenflow Coffee (3:13), Jarrell (@JarrllEvenflow) and Kevin (@TheKevinTheory) join us again, back to back, but this time we'll be discussing 'ZACK SNYDER'S JUSTICE LEAGUE' (16:08) and the state of future of DC films (1:55:10). Man we appreciate these guys so much for joining us again on the show, please don't hesitate to follow them on social media and support the business at https://evenflowworldwide.shop/

What a week!!!! There's so much for us to talk about. From the 93rd Academy Awards (2:38) taking place and the shenanigans they brought to the table, to the finale of the show we've been covering every week, 'FALCON AND THE WINTER SOLDIER' (1:08:41), there was a lot going on. Not to mention the somewhat anticipated movie adaption of the popular video game 'MORTAL KOMBAT‘ (46:57), and the now highest grossing anime movie of all time 'DEMON SLAYER: MUGEN TRAIN' (1:00:17). Both hit theaters and are doing great. We also discuss the passing of Shock G (2:40:18), the legendary rapper and the mastermind of Digital Underground who brought us 'The Humpty Dance' and the career of Tupac. 

This week we talk about one of the newest films to hit Amazon Prime Video 'Without Remorse'(3:03), a Tom Clancy story starring Michael B Jordan, as well as the new animated movie to hit the block from Netflix 'The Mitchells vs The Machines' (14:27). We also discuss the Academy Award nominee and winner for Best Actor 'The Father'(24:44), and give credit where it's due to Anthony Hopkins' performance. There's also some tv shows to talk about this week. We got a chance to check out Netflix's animated series about the black samurai 'Yasuke'(35:40) and of course the season finale of the superhero show that shakes the table 'Invincible'(47:01). As usual there's all kind of news for the week (1:07:22) from Marvel, DC, black women killing the game as per usual, and more!

'The Falcon and the Winter Soldier' has concluded so we've compiled all of our previous reviews of every episode from the series. On the March 22nd pod, we kicked things off by recapping the series premiere, 'New World Order', which catches us up with Sam Wilson after he forfeits the mantle of Captain America given to him by Steve Rogers (2:14). In 'The Star-Spangled Man', we're properly introduced to John Walker as the new Captain America, and learn about Isaiah Bradley, a veteran super soldier who fought the Winter Soldier in the Korean War (44:51). Then, we discuss the return of characters like Baron Zemo and Sharon Carter as the team travels to the criminal sanctuary city, Madripoor, in 'Power Broker' (1:25:24). 'The Whole World Is Watching' puts Sam, Bucky, and others on a dangerous collision course with the Flash Smashers and members of Wakanda's Dora Milaje, causing us to analyze every character's personal motivation (1:52:10). The penultimate episode, 'Truth', unpacks Isaiah Bradley's dark history as a super soldier, leading us to a discussion about the treatment and erasure of Black soldiers in America, and Sam's journey toward taking up the mantle (2:37:02). After the events of episode 5, we break down the chaotic finale, 'One World, One People', and the momentous moment of Sam Wilson officially becoming Captain America (3:38:00). Finally, we look back and share our thoughts on the series as a whole, and what the future may hold for its characters (4:26:10). 

"The Nexus Event" is the title for episode 4 of Loki and the energy of the episode definitely matches the title. The TVA, B-15, and Mobius are still searching for Loki and Sylvie and tension is getting high. There's a ton to unpack and so much to discuss this episode. It's getting weird and we love it.

Unfortunately we were unable to have a regular episode this week, but we're back again with another discussion of the latest episode of Marvel's 'Loki'. This weeks episode is titled "Lamentis". "Loki finds out The Variant's plan, but he has his own that will forever alter both their destinies." We get a ton of dialogue between Loki and the Variant in this change of scenery as well as some decent action sequences. Tune in to figure out what we thought about the episode.

We're back and we're here to review episode 2 of Loki. The episode is titled "The Variant" and it begins to pick up some steam from where we left off the in the first episode. "Mobius puts Loki to work investigating the Variant, but not everyone at the TVA is thrilled to be working alongside the God of Mischief." A lot of easter eggs and a lot of deeper themes in this episode to discuss. Check it out.

Welcome to the second part of the season 5 premiere of 2 Black Nerds! It's been a couple of weeks since our last regular episode, and we have some major movies to discuss.

First up is the highly anticipated sequel from John Krasinski, A Quiet Place Part II . We'll explore whether it effectively follows up its acclaimed predecessor.

Of course, we also have to discuss Disney's latest live-action film, Cruella. While Emma Stone and Emma Thompson delivered strong performances, we'll delve into the overall quality of the movie.

Although other films from the universe have been released, it's been four years since The Conjuring specifically graced our screens. We'll discuss how the newest installment, The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, measures up against the already legendary series.

Last but not least, we'll dive into the drama and musical In The Heights. This was a film we were both eagerly awaiting. We'll share our thoughts on Lin-Manuel Miranda, Anthony Ramos, the music, the cultural representation, and the controversial topic of colorism surrounding the movie.

And as always, we'll touch on some news. This is 2 Black Nerds, season 5.

Rest in peace, Clarence Williams III and Ned Beatty.
