It has been a very busy week in the world of film, and the Epic Film Guys are here to run down all the week's news and talk about everything and anything. In this week's Epic Previews segment, we're taking a look at that new Ghostbusters international trailer and defending the film once again from people who seem bound and determined to hate it. Other reviewers have flat-out boycotted the film and refuse to review it, and we'll also weigh in on that controversy. We're also reviewing that latest awesome Star Trek: Beyond trailer, and taking a look at the teaser for Disney's live-action adaptation of Beauty and the Beast, starring Emma Watson.

Last week we mentioned some contests and giveaways, and this week we'll elaborate on those a bit more. We're steadily barreling toward our 1-year podiversary, and we've got some big plans for that episode. With that said, we're going to start looking for YOUR opinions on the show, what you'd like us to change, what you'd like us to keep, and anything else you might like to see from the Epic Film Guys. We do this show because we love movies and we love our fans, so if there's something you'd love to hear, please let us know!

We've been busy spreading our wings of late, and now that my wedding and honeymoon are over, we're getting out there and teaming up with other podcasts as often as possible. Listen for us on the season finale of Pat and Jason Have a Podcast, listen for me in a short segment on this week's Classy Little Podcast, and you can hear me in the cold open for episode 18 of the World of Ro Podcast. You'll also be able to hear me guest-hosting over on Poop Culture, where I'll join Rick Mancrush for his interview with Greg Lamberson, director of the B-movie classic Slime City and his latest horror comedy Killer Rack. We'll also be featured on Podbean (our host) for the week of May 30th! Thank you so much to everyone for sponsoring and supporting us.

Last but most certainly not least, Justin and myself both got the chance to see the latest from director Shane Black: The Nice Guys! Starring Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling, the film most certainly left an impression on us, and we want to let you know how we felt about it. And, in a quick segment for Justin's Cinema Beat, he'll give his thoughts on the comedy sequel Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising.

This week on the Podcast:

We are BACK, ladies and gentlemen! We did drop the bloopers episode last week while I was sunning myself down in beautiful Punta Cana, but this will be my first official episode recording as a married man. It was a great wedding and reception and a really relaxing honeymoon, and we take a few moments to discuss some of the finer points of the last week and a half right at the top of the show this week before we jump into the meat of this week's episode.

Civil War is upon us! With Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice now behind us and extremely divisive, we turn our attention to the much-better-received Captain America: Civil War. We are especially outspoken critics of the Marvel formula, especially myself- did this film break the Marvel mold? Can a Marvel film impress me enough to get a rating above a "pretty decent" 7/10? You'll have to listen to find out! We'll also look back to two weeks ago and our Civil War wish lists, and see if we got what we wished for before we had a chance to see the film.

This week, we're also looking to the future of Epic Film Guys, particularly to new content and a new contest! Would you like to win a $25 AMC theaters gift card? All you need to do is listen to the Epic Film Guys podcast! More details to come, but your first chance to will will be our Thursday, June 2nd episode. Stay tuned!

Finally this week in Epic Previews, we'll be dissecting some new trailers (or at least new to us, since I've been away). We're taking a look at the first official trailer for the video game adaptation Assassin's Creed, starring Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard. We'll also be reviewing The Accountant, starring Ben Affleck, J.K. Simmons, Anna Kendrick, John Lithgow, and Jeffrey Tambor, and looking at the creepy teaser for The Woods, the new horror thriller from director Adam Wingard being hailed as one of the scariest movies ever made.

This week on the Podcast:

Long-promised and much-anticipated, the blooper show has arrived! I didn't want to miss an episode release just because I'm sunning myself in beautiful Punta Cana this week on my honeymoon, so I decided to throw together a massive clip show featuring all of the bloopers, outtakes, and cut segments that I've got lying around from months and months of recording the podcast. It allows a bit of a peek into the behind-the-scenes production of the podcast and how we do our lead-outs and lead-ins, how we synch our recording tracks, and how we flub lines- intentionally or otherwise- and it breaks everything down.

First up in the episode is a heated debate between Justin & James of the Classy Little Podcast, after James dismissed Justin's notion that Sylvester Stallone was one of the "great creative minds" in the film industry. This couldn't make the cut in the Oscars episode since that was already running way too long, but I thought I'd save it and play it here, since we definitely get passionate from time to time about our favorite films and our favorite film stars.

As the episode rolls on, we'll hear some lead-in bloopers and outtakes, as we can never quite seem to nail the lead-in to the episode or different segments on the first take. Sometimes I even try to get a little bit fancy or do something unique, and it almost always fails. Enjoy clips in this section that also feature our good friend (and guest on the show) Dan Brenic as well as our brothers in Perth, Paul & Wayne from The Countdown. We'll also have an audio tribute with a whole slew of Lisp outtakes.

Lastly, I decided to include another video from the EFG video days, this being our visit to the Zombie Walk in Binghamton in 2014. You can check out this great video over at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCy_vJ1O_ow. It's a shame that the guy we had partnered up with turned out to be a complete flake, because this was a lot of fun, and I really feel like Epic Film Guys could've gone in a completely different direction. But then, would we even be the Epic Film Guys podcast if that were the case? We'll never know.

With Marvel's Captain America: Civil War opening in theaters nationwide tonight, we decide to take some time to discuss our wish list for Civil War and count down our five biggest wishes. I'll be seeing the show tonight, and Justin will have likely already seen it by then. We won't be able to review the film in full for a couple weeks yet due to my wedding and honeymoon which are speeding toward me, so hopefully this will sate you, dear listeners, as you await our review show. Next week's show will be the much-discussed blooper episode, which packs its share of surprises and funny moments.

This week, Justin's Cinema Beat returns, and he is joined by Bryan Loy from Ten Bucks a Throw to review two different films! First, they'll discuss Richard Linklater's latest film, Everybody Wants Some, before discussing the very Kubrick-inspired thriller High Rise.

The episode this week wraps up with the guys discussing the villain Apocalypse from the upcoming X-Men: Apocalypse and the fanboy reaction that they were somehow responsible for changing his look. Yet, according to the cover of EW, he's always been the same color! We'll weigh in on this, as well as hearing director Bryan Singer's thoughts on the controversy as well.

RESURGENCE! That's the word of the day as we review not one, but two trailers with that subtitle in tonight's Epic Previews segment. We look at the only-being-released-in-Japan Toho reboot of Godzilla with Godzilla: Resurgence, and the twenty-years-in-the-making sequel to Independence Day, Independence Day: Resurgence. We'll also take a look at The Magnificent Seven teaser as well as the final trailer for X-Men: Apocalypse.

More and more tragedy seems to strike the world of entertainment these days, and none so big as the loss of music legend Prince. In this episode we'll feature three pieces from his illustrious career, two of them from the Batman 1989 soundtrack - "Trust" and "Partyman," while the third will close out the show in the form of "When Doves Cry." Justin also has a few words to say about this iconic star as we bid him a fond farewell.

Also this week, we look back at my bachelor party from last weekend and talk about the fun shenangians that ensued throughout the weekend, from the head of Patrick Swayze to watching half of Roadhouse. All in all a great weekend, but my voice certainly paid the price.

We had the opportunity and privilege to check out the latest of Disney's live-action film adaptations, this time in Jon Favreau's The Jungle Book. We couldn't weigh in on this one alone, however, so we are proud to welcome the host of the Ten Bucks a Throw Podcast, Bryan Loy, to help us review one of the year's best films thusfar.

In our Epic Previews segment tonight, we'll be reviewing the trailer for Nicholas Winding Refn's newest film, Neon Demon. It was a pretty slow week for trailers leading up to the recording, so be sure to check back next week for more great new trailers!

The theater industry is something near and dear to us here on the Epic Film Guys podcast, since we spend so much time in theaters watching movies. The experience is nigh unreplaceable, as far as we are concerned. Yet, with announcements of late that a theater chain even considered (and quickly rescinded) texting in the theaters and, as Sean Parker's Screening Room gains supporters and detractors, is the theatrical experience on its way out? We'll discuss the controvery surrounding Parker's latest venture and what impact it might have on the industry.

This week on the Podcast:

Marvel v. DC!! With the release of Batman v Superman a few weeks ago and the impending release of Captain America: Civil War, the fanboys are at a fever pitch, throwing insults across the aisle at one another and their respective franchises. With the critical thrashing that BvS received and the extremely vocal minority of fans and audiences that hated it, everyone was quick to seize upon any news that DC's plans were crumbling before their very eyes. We took a week off from the superhero fare, but now we're ready to jump into the fray and dispel the falsehoods and embrace the truths and examine the state of the DCEU and the MCU. Are those Suicide Squad reshoot rumors a knee-jerk reaction? What else is DC changing in the wake of BvS? With advanced word that Civil War is the "best Marvel film yet," can DC recover from two very divisive films? Justice League started filming three days ago, with Snyder once again at the helm. Is the DCEU safe under his leadership?

Ever the cinephile, Justin had the opportunity to check out Hardcore Henry and went to an advanced screening of Green Room this past week. We'll get his thoughts and reviews of both films in a brand new segment, Justin's Cinema Beat! Whenever Justin gets a chance to check out a film at an advanced screening, we'll feature all of his reviews right here.

Speaking of segments, in the Epic Previews segment tonight we'll be discussing two of the biggest trailers to land over the past two weeks- the "blitz" trailer for Suicide Squad and the teaser for Rogue One: A Star Wars story, which may be the worst film title of any film in recent memory. We'll also discuss the Doctor Strange trailer, which was scheduled to land during the recording of the podcast.

What are YOU drinking? Last week during our Batman v Superman review, we announced that we'd be temporarily postponing the segment in the lead-up to my wedding next month. After a very vocal fanbase cried out to keep the segment in place, I decided to run a poll on our twitter page, and you responded with a resounding: KEEP DRINKING!! With over 75% of the votes in the affirmative, "What're you drinkin'?" will remain the opening segment of the Epic Film Guys podcast for a long time to come, and we'll just have to cut out a few drinks elsewhere to make up for it.

Speaking of our fans, through twitter this week I asked for listeners to submit questions, and we did get a few to respond to! We'll discuss films that we'd refuse to watch under penalty of death, as well as our best & worst theater-going experiences and potential villains for Man of Steel 2, which we're less and less likely to get with the critical thrashing Batman v Superman received.

This week will see the return of our Epic Previews segment, in which we'll be taking a look at a few trailers that have landed since last time we did the segment. We review the Lego Batman teasers, the newest trailer for the upcoming X-Men: Apocalypse, the surreal comedy Swiss Army Man starring Daniel Radcliffe, Paul Dano, and Mary Elizabeth Winstead, and Blood Father, the Jean-François Richet directed thriller starring Mel Gibson and William H. Macy.

Speaking of Mel Gibson, we'll also briefly discuss his currently-in-post-production Hacksaw Ridge, directed by Gibson and starring himself with Andrew Garfield, Vince Vaughn, Sam Worthington, Hugo Weaving & Gibson himself. Garfield plays WWII American Army Medic Desmond T. Doss, who served during the Battle of Okinawa, refuses to kill people and becomes the first Conscientious Objector in American history to be awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor.

Last, but most certainly not least, we finish off this episode with the long-awaited second part of our Batman 1989 commentary! We'll be putting the finishing touches on the second half of the film and releasing the entire commentary very shortly in the future. In the meantime, if there are other commentary tracks you'd love to hear us on, let us know! We'll be happy to record them for your listening pleasure.

As mentioned toward the end of the show, please take a moment and visit https://www.etsy.com/shop/thegnomeworkshop and support my friends Brian and Kim by buying their book! It is personalized with the child's name, and is an adorable story with original artwork. Please help share the love for them!

"Twenty years in Gotham, how many good guys are left? How many stayed that way?" We couldn't have predicted it at the time, but Zack Snyder managed to make a film even more divisive than his 2013 Man of Steel with the follow-up, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, which serves the dual purpose of being a sequel to Man of Steel while introducing elements for a DC comics shared cinematic universe, including Batman and Wonder Woman. The critics have lambasted it, but its box office is still doing well and the audience seems to be reacting much more positively.

In this full episode review, Nick and Justin dissect Batman v Superman to its very core to get to the heart of its characters and its story. We'll take a look at the criticisms swirling around the film and address them as necessary, as well as offering our own. We also address our favorite things about the film before stamping it with a rating that rarely ever happens on this podcast. Thanks for listening, and we'll see you at the movies!

Today is a day for truth... the truth about our love of Zack Snyder's very divisive 2013 mega blockbuster Man of Steel. Suffice to say myself and Justin love this film, and while others may disagree, we took it upon ourselves to lay out several of the criticisms most-often cited in this film and dissect them one at a time. I also asked twitter what their one biggest criticism of the film was, and we take some time to address them- or at the very least, have a good laugh at them.

Though our Man of Steel discussion takes up a majority of the runtime, it is not alone! We also take a look at the Captain America: Civil War trailer in this week's Epic Previews, and we'll discuss the news of a fifth Indiana Jones film, which has re-opened many old wounds regarding the last film in the franchise.

Last but not least, I want to personally thank @mpearce6, @YogurtPodcast, @roelsantosjr, @BrentleyDOliver, @reelcomicheroes, @TheMidside, and our great friend Paul @thecountdownpc for contributing to our Man of Steel show with an audio clip discussing their love (or lack thereof) for the film. Also, a huge thanks to everyone who responded on twitter!

And if you're hearing this on release day, dear listener, then I am in Virginia with Epic Film Guy Justin and we'll be seeing Batman v Superman at 7:00 PM. Our FULL Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice review episode will land next week with a lot of fun surprises that I hope to put together. Thanks for listening, and we'll see you at the movies!
