We're seriously on a roll this year covering CURRENT films! This week, we're joined by a friend of show, Chett Eye Knight! He even told us about the time he met Alex Hyde White -- yes, the ORIGINAL Mr. Fantastic! The Geeks and Chett discuss Fantastic Four: First Steps, and if the length of this episode is any indication, we think it's safe to say this one was a unanimous hit!

We are joined by Sheena from Melanin 'N Manga this week to help us breakdown the newest re-brand and first film entry into our pal Jimmy Gunn's new DC-verse. There was one really big dissenter here... Can you guess which one of us almost didn't give this film a rating at all??

Five years of podcasting -- can you believe it?! We started this podcast at the height of COVID in 2020, several years after we'd shut down our Geeks Unleashed website. We were nervous, we wondered if people would like us and listen in. And we must be doing something right, because we're still here five years later! And we have even MORE changes coming this year! 

Thank you for five years of listens, comments, DMs, and a BIG thank you to all the friends we've made along the way! Here's to another 200 episodes!

We thought we'd change it up for this one. Each of the Geeks brought a movie to battle with. We're pitting our 90s faves against each other! WHO WILL WIN??? On one side of the ring, we have Mark making his case for Empire Records. And on the other side, we have Jasmin bringing The Fifth Element into the fight. Which gets your vote?

Here we are at episode 199, and we've brought back another fav guest! This time, we're chatting with Shawn Pryor again, who last joined us on episode 78 for our conversations series. In this episode, we're taking it all the way back to 1978 and to THE most expensive Japanese film ever made (at the time): Message From Space.

1:41 - Shawn Pryor reintroduces himself and we talk in depth about one of his latest book, Kaiju Unleashed

Another FUN episode where we get to geek out with one of our podcast buddies, Cookie! He's been MIA from our nerd world for a while because he and his wife recently had a baby, and that's a time consuming task! Join us for a meandering conversation through the world of Tolkien -- from the books, to the films, and to Jasmin winning a speech tournament for speaking Elvish in college! Let's jump right in to Lord of the Rings: Two Towers.

Moving right along, we're talking about yet another 1982 film: Blade Runner! Derek is actually an OG Geeks Unleashed crew mate! He used to write for us back when we had a website -- around 2013. This week, we're talking about one of his favorite films of all time and how it had such a genre-bending impact.

Here we are on our road to episode 200!! And for a treat, we wanted to bring back a few of our favorite guests to see chat about THEIR favorite films! Up first, we've got Adam from GoFigure here to chat about a cult classic, Beastmaster (1982).

And just like that, our Big Guns MCU run has now come to a close! We started back at the beginning with Iron Man and have since covered 17 years and 18 films worth of fandom -- WOW! Be sure to let us know what your favorite was that we've covered!

Now we're current! This is our first of two MCU features released in the same year we're recording! The last time this happened was with Deadpool and Wolverine. Our original Big 3 have left and now we're starting to rebuild with new characters. What did y'all think of this first Cap film without Steve Rogers?

Over the MAJOR climax point and into a new phase we go with Thor: Love and Thunder! This movie received a lot of hate when it was first released... But was it warranted? The original audience and critical reception was enough to keep Jasmin out of theaters -- so this was her first watch, and Mark's only rewatch of this film.
