Check the Vending Machines!

It is episode 145 of CHECK THE VENDING MACHINES, and we were going to review CASINO ROYALE (2006)... until THE MATRIX RESURRECTION trailer dropped. That is the majority of the focus for this episode. Also: INDIANA JONES vs. THE MUMMY (1999)? Nicolas Cage vs. Keanu Reeves in terms of filmography? These important questions deserve answers. 

This week on Episode 144:

Zach and Jason get sweaty about the MCU, especially Peter Parker, Shang-Chi, and which of the upcoming movies they care about. Then, the main topic of the show arrives with a sad showing… JIU JITSU (2020) is a collection of scenes cobbled together with some sort of story. Did Zach and Jason like it? No, they didn’t, they really didn’t.

Thanks for watching!
