"Dads, apes, and shirtless brawls—what more could a movie trailer promise? And what less could a movie deliver?"

Episode Description

In this mini-episode, Landen and Truman swing back into the jungle of The Legend of Tarzan (2016), where they ponder why dads love gorilla fights, critique vine physics, and play the trailer guessing game. Plus, they take a detour into motion capture history and debate whether CGI apes should ever return to cinema.
