In the second episode of Reel Time, we have a huge news section with lots of announcements and trailers that have happened lately. We look at the new Ghostbusters announcement, Mission Impossible sequels, Marvel trailer madness, Dan Gilroy's latest film heading to Netflix, and more. Locally we talk about the Star Wars Symphony screenings and the death of the local video stores... and also talk about if movies are getting better or worse due to how critics are grading them online.
For our main reviews we look at James Wan's Aquaman and M. Night Shyamalan's Glass - both spoiler free.
Our look back at other films covers briefly Ready Player One, which Ryan hadn't seen last year, alongside deciding how well The Breakfast Club has aged and if Bill and Ted are still excellent or bogus. Aside from touching on some other highlights, we both also discuss the demise of the parody film and the rise of the meta-comedy.
Finally we play a game of 'Names from a Hat' (or rather a bag because its all we had near us) and try to name as many movies a particular actor has done in 30 seconds!
Lots already in this second episode, please comment, like, and subscribe!
