Trailers aren’t our thing, but there is a lot of hype as Thor: Ragnarok and Justice League approach and we couldn’t help ourselves. Because we’re original we’ll be talking about them, unlike every other single person in the Western world.

Superman, I moustache you a question, but I’m shaving it for later…

Getting in the mood for more cruelty in Westeros we check out the stand-out episode from season 6, and probably the entire series.

One the most out-and-out enjoyable episodes, and a great way to remind ourselves of how little we know, how many characters we can't remember, and just how crazy the final 2 seasons might be.

I'm off to Twitch myself

Let's see what killed off the last attempt at Spider-man. Did Sony learn any lessons for Homecoming? They learnt not to try anymore and gave him back to fecking Marvel...

Not only do we have a mental breakdown at how awful this disjointed nonsense is but our machinery also fell apart. Alex's computer overheated and my microphone just flat out and dies half an hour from the end. We were too depressed to notice.

Itsy-bitsy spider...

A cracking good film deserves two useless commentators talking over it. Probably one of Marvel's best it's time to hop aboard the Milano again.

Nothing goes over my head.

Can a film have a soul? Can it be redeemed? Who knows, but before Covenant (which looks about the same) we delve into the divisive (but beautiful) Prometheus. Fair warning: we like this one despite its flaws.

E3 left us with a lot to chew through, some good, some crap, and the excitement is rising over the new Black Panther movie. Plus a spoiler-filled review of Wonder Woman now that Alex has seen it.
