After the Credits

SHAZAM! Yumchunks Assemble! Today Yumchunks takes look at the newest entry in the DC cinematic canon - the surprisingly pleasant and not very Zack-Snydery film, Shazam! Listen as they hash out how this movie fits in to the wider DC universe, as well as provide more great and terrible Netflix and Indie Game picks. How long can Chris last before he turns full DC fanboy / Marvel hater? Place your bets! Listen and find out!

Main Discussion: 22:45

They hide in our mirrors and shadows. They crawl up from beneath. They wait for their moment in the light. But there is no escape! Because we are always tethered to the After the Credits podcast! Unless you unplug your headphones or something. But come on, don't do that. Cause then you'd miss out on riveting discussions about CostCo memberships, the prescience and mediocrity of Dollhouse, and the interesting composition of thematic and story elements in Jordan Peele's new thriller **Us**. We are our own worst enemies. Something we here at YumChunks are constantly and painfully aware of.

In a surprise encounter, Chris ran into fellow Keyblade Master Aaron Ruiz. After a long and convoluted discussion they hopped in their gummi ship and took to the airwaves. Find out about what a Kingdom Hearts game is able to do with the Unreal Engine. Will the series come to a satisfying end? Are Darkness and Light two sides of the same coin? What is Xehanort's true objective? Will Mickey ever find true love? What is Kingdom Hearts? Who is the Master of Masters? Why are there more questions than when we began? Some of these and more in our special After the Credits where we break down **Kingdom Hearts 3**.

Can't tell the difference between a Skrull and a Kree? Don't worry, the YumChunks crew's got you covered in this episode of After the Credits. (Also, as Skrull are a shapeshifting species, it's actually pretty common to not be able to tell them apart. That's kinda their whole *thing*.) The power of the cosmos flows through the cast as we discuss the trials of potty training, continued love for the Nintendo Switch, our hot take on the latest **Avengers: End Game** trailer, and our thoughts on the penultimate entry in the current MCU- **Captain Marvel**. How do we feel about Carol Danvers explosive late entry into the cinematic saga? Push that play button and find out!

The YumChunks Master Builders cracked open their box of legos and are putting together one crazy podcast. Listen and play as they discuss the sequel to one of their favorite animated films ever! Does the sequel hold up? What is the difference between book sequels and film sequels? Was the first one a musical? Vague answers to all these questions and more as After the Credits discusses **The Lego Movie 2**. This podcast's gonna get stuck inside your- this podcast's gonna get stuck inside your- this podcast's gonna get stuck inside your he-e-e-e-ead.

It's easy to forget how fortunate we all are at After the Credits to be able to have fun and share our thoughts on movies, tv, and pop-culture with you, our listeners. But sometimes life blindsides you; it hits you with something that can knock you on your feet. And you're left reeling.

Earlier this year, Matt Chewiwie was diagnosed with brain cancer. For this special episode of After the Credits, we talk with Matt as he shares about his initial hospitalization, brain surgery, recovery from surgery, and his journey forward during this unexpected challenge. With the overwhelming support of family and friends and a truly inspirational attitude, Matt is strengthened and ready for whatever comes next. If you'd like to show your support and donate to help Matt, please follow the links to his GoFundMe and a special Chilis fund raising opportunity, in the description above.

Thank you for all your thoughts, donations, and support. It truly means the world to Matt and his family and friends.

Happy New Year! We hope it's beginning with glory for all our listeners. It's only been a few weeks for the ATC crew, but 2019 is already filled with puppies, high school Les Mis productions, wrangling Bird scooters, jury duty, and getting sick and playing the Witness. Before we get too far into the 2019 though, we want to take a moment and look back at some of our favorites as well as some of our more peculiar picks of 2018. So join us as we **Wrap Up 2018** in style and hand out our first ever Chunky Awards as voted on by YOU, the listener. Here's looking to another amazing year of casting in 2019 and from all of us at After The Credits, Thank You!

Another YumChunks Christmas has come and gone. We take a brief moment to talk about all the wonderful things that happened to us over the holiday. Gifts and Christmas spirit aplenty, for all those near and far. We come at you with DC's latest attempt at redemption with the film **Aquaman**. Is it the true ruler of the seven seas or another floundering attempt, we lay all our cards on the table and learn something new about Chewy in the process. *(But if you just want to hear us talk about the movie, skip to the 28 minute mark.)* We hope you all enjoy, and will see you in the New Year!

The holiday season is in full swing and the YumChunks crew is in the spirit of giving as we have an entire multiverse worth of content for you web-heads this week with the longest running episode of ATC so far! Celebrate the good tidings as we jump into the ongoing exploits of Macauley Culkin, analyze the recent MCU trailers for Avengers: End Game and Captain Marvel, debate the classifications of hot-dogs, attempt to understand some recent anime, and generally goof off, all in the lead up to our discussion of the new Sony animated feature **Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse**. It's a Christmas miracle we got through the episode! (But seriously, if you just want to hear us talk about the movie, skip to the 50 minute mark.) May you all have as much love in your holiday season as we did for Into the Spider-Verse.

Just because we're a bad podcast, doesn't mean we're a *bad* podcast. Plug into the Internet before it breaks and listen to us discuss the cyber sprawling sequel from Disney Animation Studios. Glitch out with the guys as they suggest The Green Book to their grandmothers, ponder on the potential and relevancy of a live action Cowboy Bebop show on Netflix, and discuss the surprising thematic messages and puzzling internet logic of **Ralph Breaks the Internet**. We're gonna wreck it!
