The podcast is officially ten years old. Can you believe it?? And sure, we may have missed, um, a year (or two) here and there, but still! John and Justin's first episode was Man of Steel released on July 19, 2013. So we thought it would be fun to revisit the film that started it all. And to top it off, John was able to join us for this episode! We had a blast recording this one and we hope you all enjoy it. It was fun looking back on this film and to see how our opinion have changed (or perhaps haven't?) after ten years.

What do you guys think of Man of Steel (again)?

After the abysmal X-Men Origins: Wolverine, the next solo Wolverine takes a step in the right direction. With director James Mangold (Logan, Ford vs Ferrari) at the helm, this film follows Logan to Japan, which is something the fans had been longing to see. Did it hold up to fans' expectations or did it fall flat, making us long for the good ol' days of X2?

Released just prior to The Dark Knight, Batman: Gotham Knight was advertised as a bridge connecting the new movie to Batman Begins. At a brisk 74 minutes, this film is actually six short films strung together with different animation styles, writers and directors. It's an interesting installment of the DC animated lineup. Oh, did I mention Kevin Conroy voices Batman? That's reason enough to watch it!
