The first part of our Review of Game of Thrones Season 6: Episodes 1-7.

Our Preview of Comic Con, what we expect to see, what’s missing, and some thoughts on Hall H.

Indiana Jones’ 35th Birthday is Today, June 12. The panel discusses the success, and failures, of Indiana Jones and speculates on the fifth film.

Last week’s episode was delayed due to an audio issue. We are releasing the cleanest version of the audio we have but much of it had to be cut out.

This Week’s Episode:

We all watch the latest trailer for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Out of the Shadows. We wish they’d go back into the shadows.

Second Topic: We watch both the teaser trailer for the new Star Trek TV Show and the latest Star Trek: Beyond Trailer.

Han Solo

Alden Ehrenreich is our new Han Solo. The panel is split on whether this is a good idea…

Captain America: Civil War

Captain America premiered last week and it is smashing box offices left and right.

X-Men: Apocalypse

X-Men Apocalypse opens this coming weekend. Starring the cast of Days of Future Past and introducing one of the comics’ most iconic villains, it may be the swan song of the X-Men franchise based off of the reviews.

TPK was unable to record a full episode this week due to our recording scheduled for Mother’s Day. So instead we decided to release a gag reel of sorts, including some from episodes that have never been aired (due to some pretty poor audio quality). TPK will be back on May 22!

Batman: The Killing Joke

This week DC Animation Studios, which has brought us such monumental animated films as The Dark Knight Returns, All Star Superman, and Batman: Under the Red Hood, announced that its next film entitled Batman: The Killing Joke will be aired during San Diego Comic Con. It also released the first full trailer for the film. Based off of the seminal comic of the same name, by Alan Moore (of Watchmen Fame) the story will involve The Joker paralyzes Barbara Gordon in front of her adopted father Commissioner Gordon, then attempting to drive him insane while Batman is driven to his breaking point in attempting to stop the mad clown.

Deadpool: DVD Release

Deadpool: the smash hit from Fox Studios set in the X-Men Universe has been released on Digital HD and will be available on Blu Ray and DVD on May 10th. Not only can we watch the film in all of its hilarity and graphic violence in the comfort of our home but we can geek out on all the special features.

You Don’t Know Dick

The Man in the High Castle is currently airing on Amazon Prime Video and tells the story of an alternate reality wherein the Axis powers won the second world war. Based off of the Philip K. Dick novel it is one of many adaptations of Philip K. Dick’s works. In fact, many sci-fi fans seem to be unaware of Dick’s contribution to the zeitgeist. So we decided to discuss the works of Philip K. Dick that have been immortalized on the screen.

Bonus: Nicolas Cage doesn’t refuse movie roles.
