In this episode, Chris and Elsa have a discussion of the genesis of the Argylle extended universe.

This leads them into a discussion about where they see the movie industry going and if a connected universe is necessary for a film’s success.

Oh yeah, and their elder Millenial-ness might be showing a little bit more than usual as they discuss what life before streaming was like. 👴🏻👵🏻

((Editing Elsa: I mis-spoke when I stated that Roman Reigns is The Rock’s nephew. He is actually his cousin but I was so caught up in my realization that, for some reason, I said the wrong relation out loud.))
