The Film Room

We're joined by a special guest, Yujen, as we find a mysterious hole and develop telekinesis. We use our new powers to fly through this 2012 superhero thriller that flips your expectations on their head. Starring Michael B Jordan before his mega fame, this film takes a much darker and more grounded approach than the superhero films we were getting at the time. We get into why the found footage style works so well, the realistic depiction of teenage boys gaining powers, find some hilarious nitpicks on the movie, and much more. Tap in for a great episode with our boy, Yujen and just try to remember where you parked.
