Jesse and Danny are checking out the newest Judd Apatow movie, The King of Staten Island. A semi auto-biographical movie about Pete Davidson playing a weed smoking slacker who is still mourning his firefighter fathers death. Really this might just be a straight up documentary. But like most Apatow movies its really about a likable dork who has no future and how he slowly changes into a normal person with a future. You know Knocked Up 15. 

Danny and Jesse talk about the Michael B. Jordan and Jamie Foxx movie Just Mercy. A film about a wrongfully accused man and the journey he and his lawyer must go through to get him justice. This film is more conversation worthy now with the rise of Black Lives Matters protests going on all over the US. 

Danny and Jesse have traveled back in time to 1985 to watch Back to the Future a movie about a young man traveling back to 1955 after watching a crazy old man that he hangs out with, for reasons that are never explained, gets shot by Libyan terrorists. I'm not making this up. He then needs to get his parents to hook up back when they are in high school after the young version of his mom ends up falling in love with him. Seriously how did they pitch this movie and get it made??

Danny and Jesse have finally done it they have seen 1/3rd of the Star Wars Skywalker Saga. And oh what a saga it has been, its had its ups (Podracing) its downs (Attack of the Clones entirely) and it has had its tears (mine when Darth Maul died). But it is finally time to talk about when Anakin finally turns into the most evil, imposing, coolest villain ever. James Earl Jones. 

We head back in time to watch the Sam Raimi Spider-Man movie that started all of the numerous Spider-Man movies that we have been forced to endure. Does it hold up? Or is the shadow of Topher Grace as Venom too large for this movie to still be good? I don't know this movie is fun and Willem Dafoe has a cool voice so that's cool.... right? 

Danny and Jesse are back to talk about Episode 2 of the Star Wars saga. The one that everyone says is the worst movie in the entire series, but is it truly the worst now that all new sequels exist? Let's find out as we dive in Anakin's absolute deep as can be lines. 

Danny and Jesse talk about Scott Pilgrim vs. The World an Edgar Wright movie about Michael Cera destroying Superman. Oh and we got hungry and decided to talk food for a long time too. 

Danny and Jesse are going back to 1999 to the first of the Prequel Star Wars movies. Does Jar Jar Binks still ruin this movie or has The Phantom Menace aged like fine wine and now is a masterpiece in comparison to the new Trilogy of movies?

P.S. Darth Maul is the best villain ever.

Danny and Jesse are back to talk about the Safdie brothers first major film Good Time. A story of a brother who looks far too good to actually exist in the real world, but yet he only seduces one 16 year old girl.*
