This week, whoops, there’s a new biggest movie in theaters and this one is setting records. Matt Patches and Katey Rich were unable to catch Spider-Man: Brand New Day in theaters, but Katey shows up to referee a discussion between Davids, one Ehrlich who did not like Brand New Day as much as one Da7e who thought it’s a new kind of Spider-Man installment that points towards some good tidings in Marvel’s immediate future. Will they return next week with a single topic show? Not intentionally, but don’t count us out.

This week, everyone is back in the War Room and not on vacation with multiple children and everyone has seen The Odyssey! We figured it was about time that we devoted an episode of one of TIME Magazine’s Best Podcasts of All Time to this all-timer cinematic experience (that nevertheless has nitpicks our hosts will nitpick). That’s all we had to talk about to fill a whole episode. MAKE SURE YOU’VE SEEN THE ODYSSEY FIRST IF YOU CARE ABOUT SPOILERS.

AKA NONE OF US ARE FIFTY YET BUT ALL THESE MOVIES ARE.

It’s another Fighting in The War Room Quarter Quell! 

For this edition of a FITWR Quarter Quell, each host picked a movie that was released 50 years go in 1976 and was NOT one of the super popular ones (no Network, no Rocky). Katey finally watches the Barbra Streisand/Kris Kristofferson version of A Star is Born, Da7e caught up on a Sherlock Holmes movie he had never seen with The Seven-Per-Cent Solution, Patches picked the final Alfred Hitchcock film called Family Plot, and David exposes his cohosts to In Realm of the Senses .

Take a listen, embed and/or download below; for more from all of us on Twitter: follow the show (@FITWR), Katey (@kateyrich) Patches (@misterpatches), Da7e (@Da7e) and David (@davidehrlich).
