Do We Like Movies?

This episode was originally recorded in early 2019. After the first major DC Movie disaster that was Batman & Robin, the Dark Knight was truly dead on film. In 2003, the indie director of Memento, Christopher Nolan, embarked on the journey of bringing Batman's origin story on film for the first time.

Largely adapted from the Frank Miller graphic novel "Batman: Year One", this movie was one of the first "reboots" of the 00s and would leave a lasting imprint on the Comic Book movie genre that is still felt and imitated to this day. Join us as we review Nolan's 2005 classic, Batman Begins.

Though it came to theaters in November of 2021, few movies in the last year have had both the cultural impact, and caused more dialogue on our community than this Disney film. We are introduced to the Madrigal family who are given the gift of an Enchanted (GET IT?) candle that grants each family member a special ability, with the exception of our main character Mirabel. Get ready to talk about generational trauma! 

We're back doing the exact same thing we did last time. This week we are going into the extremely meta world of 22 Jump Street. Schmidt and Jenko find themselves going under cover as college students this time trying to find the supplier of a dangerous new drug called WyPhy. 

Happy New year! We missed nearly the whole month of January but we are back for Year 4 of the show. In this episode we explain what we have been up to since our Spider-Man No Way Home episode, and we kick off two episodes covering the comedy reboot of 21 Jump Street starring Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum.

We are finally here. Maybe the most anticipated movie of the year and the one that finally got everyone back in theaters during a pandemic. This week we review the final chapter of the MCU version of Marvel's web-slinging hero. Please only listen to this podcast if you have already seen the film because we get into HEAVY spoilers.

Right before we went to see Spider-Man: No Way Home we decided to watch and cover Andrew Garfield's final outing as the web slinging Marvel Super-Hero. In this movie that effectively killed this second franchise, we catch up with Peter Parker and Gwen Stacy as they try to balance their on and off again romance with saving the city and preparing for the future.

In anticipation for No Way home we are looking back at the Amazing Spider-Man series to see if it’s any better or worse than we remember. Find out how we feel about this 2012 reboot now.

This week we cover one of the latest MCU offerings. This film features the first leading Asian super hero in the Marvel movie cannon. Shang Chi (Now "Shawn") is a San Francisco parking Valet who is forced to return to his true home of Ta Lo, an enchanted realm filled with creatures of Chinese folklore, to save this place from the wrath of his vengeful father Wen Wu, the leader of the Ten Rings.

New movie week! Our second episode of this Marvel Movies month is the newest MCU offering based on the cosmic heroes, the Eternals.

It's here. After nearly 3 years Angel is watching this movie once again to see if his extreme distaste for this movie back in 2018/2019 was warranted or not.
