The corridors of film and television are filled with choices made for a character that seem either odd or possibly even bold. Who would have thought Heath Ledger's reptilian approach to the Joker would work? Can you believe Disney approved a drunken buffoon as their lead pirate? This week, we explore some of the weirdest or most intriguing character choices in film and television. Those ones that stood out to us as notable.

Also this week: Our reviews of Won't You Be My Neighbor and Netflix's The Legacy of a Whitetail Deer Hunter, upcoming releases including Hotel Transylvania 3 and Skyscraper, Alien is going to be a TV series now, Idris Elba joins Hobbs and Shaw, and much more.

To cap off our show, we take a large look at the world's smallest superhero in our Ant-Man and the Wasp Spoilercast! We discuss our thoughts on the original film, it we ever wanted a sequel, where this latest took us, who stood out, the cast, the jokes, and if we want anymore adventures in this franchise. Has Marvel done it again?
