We are wrapping up The Mummy franchise with the third installment: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor! Released only 9 years after the original, but taking place 20 years later, this film takes the O’Connells to China where Alex has awakened the Dragon Emperor and his terracotta army. Missing from the cast is Rachel Weisz (replaced by Maria Bello) and Rob Cohen replaces Stephen Sommers in the director’s chair. How does this film hold up and stand against the other two Mummy movies? Check out what the guys think and let us know what you think of The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor!

One of Stew's most anticipated movies of the year is here! The second installment of Zack Snyder's Rebel Moon brings the war to the moon of Veldt! The first film was a bit lackluster according to Stew and Justin but does the second film breathe new life into the franchise? (Does two movies count as a franchise?)

Trying something new this week: You'll notice this episode has a cold open, where Stew and Justin have a bit of small talk before the episode begins. What do you think? Do you like it or should we just get right into it like we usually do? Let us know! Continuing with the Transformers franchise, the guys dive into the prequel/reboot starring everyone's favorite loveable mute Transformer, Bumblebee! Following on the heels of the disastrously bad Transformers: The Last Knight, Bumblebee reinvigorated the franchise by focusing on less Transformers and making the whole thing a bit more small scale (Chicago doesn't get destroyed again!). With a new cast and new, more classic, designs for the Transformers (and a new director), Bumblebee made Transformers fans happy, but is it truly the best Transformers film? Check out what the guys think and let us know what you think of Bumblebee! Cinema Heroes YouTube Instagram

Next up in the animated New 52 movies is Suicide Squad: Hell to Pay! An R-rated, ultra-violent, road trip movie with some of the world's deadliest bad guys doing Amanda Waller's dirty work. Deadshot, Bronze Tiger, Coppherhead, Captain Boomerang, Killer Frost and Harley Quinn are hunting down a mysterious "Get Out of Hell Free" card, but can they find it before a few other notorious bad guys get to it first? Check out what the guys think of this flick and let us know what you think of Suicide Squad: Hell to Pay! Cinema Heroes YouTube Instagram

The fourth and final Christopher Reeve Superman movie finds him battling nuclear weapons and Nuclear Man! Gene Hackman returns for the movie that killed the Superman franchise for nearly twenty years. Even with Christopher Reeve himself contributing to the story, the presence of Jon Cryer and Mariel Hemingway, the movie suffers from an inconsistent tone and crazy plot choices. Is there anything redeeming about this movie at all? Check out what the guys think and let us know what you think of Superman IV: The Quest for Peace! Cinema Heroes YouTube Instagram
