REVIEW – Is Guardians of the Galaxy The Marvel Movie You’ve Been Waiting For?
| 1. August, 2014

REVIEW_GRAPHIC

These Four A-Holes Saw The Movie

This week, all four hosts have their usual battle about this summer’s crazy superhero offering from Marvel. Somehow everyone saw the movie and has enough opinions that no one does the whole review saying only “I Am Groot.” That’s right! It’s James Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy and the whole podcast hangs in the balance: Just what will David hate about this one? Is Katey finally interested in Thanos or would she rather speak about Get On Up? Can Da7e convince Patches that a notecard movie is a good thing? Find out who ends the show with the Infinity Stone, right now!

Plus Comic-Con 2014 Wrap-Up and More Lucy

This week, Katey, Da7e, Patches and David managed to all stay out of San Diego during Comic Con which puts us in the unenviable position of sorting out what was cool and what wasn’t purely out of the news that made it out on the internet. Then: David’s absence during last week’s Lucy review was felt, especially when you hear his real opinions about the ScarJo action flick. Finally: Will bundling intellectual properties into megafranchises butt-up against an ever rabid fandom and destroy the blockbuster as we know it? Da7e says yes.

REVIEW – A Weekend of Brains and Brawn
| 25. July, 2014

REVIEW_GRAPHIC

Lucy and Hercules Sittin’ In A Tree

This week, Katey and Patches amplify their own brain capacity by bringing Buzzfeed Film Critic Alison Willmore to discuss Lucy, the Scarlett Johansson-led pseudo-science action picture from writer-director-producer Luc Besson. It’s a little bit Taken, a little bit 2001, and reactions are all over the spectrum. From there, Katey and Alison segue from strong woman to strong man for a look at Hercules, starring the definition of muscle-laden: The Rock. Is it a gift from the action gods or a painstaking labor? All that and your answers to this week’s Brett Ratner-themed lightning question, on this week’s review episode.

32 – Joke Rock: Weird Al or Dwayne Johnson?
| 22. July, 2014

EPISODE_GRAPHIC

Can you smell what this podcast is cooking?

This week, Patches wants to talk Joke Rock of a few different stripes. First, he pitches a conversation on Weird Al’s Mandatory Fun album to David, Da7e and Katey, then in segment 3 the group tries to decide if love for The Rock on screen is ultimately an ironic love. That plus a Family Feud segment that surprisingly features the least amount of feuding on the show and a Lightning Round question for reluctant Brett Ratner fans.
