If you grew up in the 80s there were some movies that were a staple of your childhood. The Goonies, Gremlins, The Dark Crystal, Return to Oz and other scary-as-crap movies that would give you nightmares for years to come. The Neverending Story isn't quite that bad but, man, does it have some depressing scenes! Join Stew and Justin as they rewatch it (for what Justin thinks is his 2nd viewing ever) and let us know what you think of The Neverending Story!

In 2018, Sony decided to release a solo Venom movie... without Spider-Man... because that makes sense, right? Despite the lack of web-head, fans of Venom were excited to see the character on screen closer resemble the character in the comic, compared to 2007's Spider-Man 3. Tom Hardy was cast as Eddie Brock, which brought even more anticipation from fans, and Michelle Williams was cast, perhaps adding a little gravitas to the picture. Fast forward and now we've gotten TWO Venom movies and a Morbius movie without Spider-Man. What do the guys think of Venom? Check it out and let us know what you think of the movie!

When DC Comics decided to reboot their universe with the New 52, it wasn't long after that the animated films followed suit. The first film in the New 52 universe is Justice League: War! The heroes don't know each other yet, they aren't a team but when Darkseid threatens to take over their world, they must unite! Justin and Stew love these animated movies and they brought along their friend Alex Thomas (from Alex Thomas Reviews and NerdTalk) to join them as they discuss Justice League: War! What do you think of the movie? Let us know!

In 2009, Paramount Pictures and J.J. Abrams brought Star Trek back to the big screen and attempted to bring in a new audience for the franchise. It made over $385 million (worldwide) at the box office so I'd say it was a success! The film tells the origin story of Kirk, Spock, Bones and crew, while at the same time, creating a new timeline for these characters to exist. Some long time Star Trek fans didn't like it but what do Justin and Stew think? Check it out and let us know what you think of Star Trek!

The Turtles are back! Some have different voices! April looks different! But hey, what can you do? The sequel to 1990's live-action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was a bit more family friendly than it's predecessor and features the one and only Vanilla Ice (I don't care what you say, I love that song)! How does it hold up against the original and almost 30 years later? Check out the episode below to see what the guys think and let us know what you think of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze!

Is The Matrix Reloaded the most anticipated movie of all time? Star Wars fans may have something to say about that, but regardless, the second Matrix film was highly anticipated and I think it's safe to say it did not meet everyone's expectations. How about 19 years later? Does it hold up better than you remember or is it worse? Check out the episode and let us know what you think of The Matrix Reloaded!

In what Stew calls "the Golden Age of Superhero Movies," X-Men Origins: Wolverine was released but it's certainly not a golden movie. It was supposed to be one of three Origins movies (the other two being Magneto and Cyclops) but perhaps after this film was released those ideas were scrapped (or changed, as the Magneto film became X-Men: First Class). It's certainly not the highlight of Hugh Jackman's long career as playing Wolverine but what do John and Stew think about it? Check out the episode and let us know what you think of X-Men Origins: Wolverine!

Part man. Part machine. All cop. 1987 brought us the first RoboCop film, introducing us to Murphy (Peter Weller) as he joins the Detroit police force, which is now owned by Omni Consumer Products. Crime is rampant in Detroit and there's a cop killer named Clarence Boddicker (Kurtwood Smith) on the loose. Long story short: Boddicker kills Murphy and he's transformed by OCP into RoboCop! And the world would never be the same! RoboCop was iconic, spawning two sequels, an animated series, a live-action series, a remake and a couple of video games. What do the guys think of RoboCop? Fair warning: We get pretty sidetracked during this one. Check it out and let us know what you think of RoboCop!
