What better way to launch The Hard Way, than with my brother Jay Rosario - owner and creator of Unstoppable Comics

When we get together to talk shop, we end up crashing head-on in LEGIT heated debates. I'm "The Movie Guy"...He's "The Comic Guy". And, when those worlds collide, the shit hits the fan and makes an absolute mess wall to wall! 

This episode's topic is a prime example, as we discuss the summer (comic) movie blockbuster: Marvel's CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR!!!!

We've both seen the flick and we both have our opinions - from our respective perspectives! DieHard Derek is a die-hard (no pun intended) movie fanatic, and Jay The Unstoppable is staunch comic book enthusiast. While we may be on the same page, those words are usually interpreted differently.

**BEWARE OF SPOILERS** - If you haven't seen this movie yet, allow me to offer a suggestion -  FUCK OFF NOW!!! Be a real adult and go spend some money to see the film to beat this summer. We're not holding anything back! So if you don't want to know how it ends, who dies, and all the other fun stuff - you may want to avoid this episode. Don't say you weren't warned! If you have the cojones to stick around, then saddle up bitches and get ready to enjoy the ride! Make sure to follow us on Twitter @DieHardDerekG and @Unstoppablecom. When the mics go off, the debate continues on social media! Stay connected, or elbows may have to be dropped! #CanUDigIT
