It's been 13 years since 'Avatar' premiered and became the highest grossing movie of all time, which is why the first teaser trailer for its long awaited sequel is a big deal. Jim and AJ review the latest trailer for 'Avatar: The Way of Water' and discuss why this franchise is so popular. But first, they have some things to say about the trailers for 'Men' and 'Weird.' 

Say what you will about the movies of 2021, but their trailers were pretty commendable. Despite COVID, trailers did the best they could to get people excited about movies again. AJ and Jim each present their own Top 3 favorite trailers from the last year. 

Jim finally gets to dish out all of his thoughts about 'Dune,' and there's a lot. They also get nostalgic with 'Jackass Forever' and discuss medieval facial hair in 'The Last Duel.'

In this episode we take a look at the ultra violent 'Mortal Kombat' trailer, debate the intentions of 'Cruella,' and give an oral history of the origins of "The Snyder Cut." Oh, AJ also describes what it was like to live in Texas last week.

For our main event, we review the first trailer for 'Godzilla vs. Kong,' an upcoming Warner Bros. movie that promises an epic showdown between two of cinema's most iconic monsters. It looks big, dumb and fun – just how AJ wants it. We also have a bone to pick with another recent trailer from WB that promotes all of their movie releases for 2021.

Nothing like a Batman trailer to bring us back from hiatus. In this episode we reunite to talk exclusively about the new trailer from Matt Reeves' 'The Batman.' This episode is sponsored by our friend, Lino.

As movie theaters shut down across the country, studios are delaying their movie releases and pumping the brakes on their trailers – leaving us with little to talk about. So in this episode, we set our sights on 'The Invisible Man', which recently jumped from theaters to Video On Demand, and compare the movie to its trailer. Also, in keeping up with the very timely theme of checking on each other's health, we share updates on our own experiences with COVID-19.

Jim shares what he knows about the Coronavirus after being infected by it. Conversation then turns to the changing state of movies – and if we're going to see a decline in their trailers. Finally, we draw parallels between life as we now know it and the trailer for Steven Soderbergh's 2011 outbreak horror film, 'Contagion'.
