This week the boys tackle one hell of a Newsy News segment, breaking down all the Super Bowl trailers, Quantum Break previews, Destiny sequel talk, Titanfall 2, Kanye's new game, Danny McBride in Alien: Covenant, Bryan Fuller showrunning the new Star Trek, Sonic's live action movie, and how Cliff B declined working on Silent Hills.

Then after the break (01:12:11) we do our NON-SPOILER reviews of Firewatch and Deadpool.

We'll be releasing separate Spoilercasts where we discuss them in their entirety, so be on the lookout for those.

EA pulls out of E3? No more Street Fighter 4 at EVO? A new ninja turtles trailer dropped? Jim from The Office wants to play a Marvel Villain? You best believe the boys discuss these topics and more in this week's Newsy News (0:05:06) segment.

After the break (0:55:52) they throw out baseless predictions for what movies this year will succeed critically/financially and which will bomb.
