Stranger Things and Ghostbusters

This week, Joanna Robinson continues her reign of Rich-ness as Da7e, David and Patches follow her to a discussion of Netflix's Stranger Things, the recently debuted sci-fi/horror mini-series. Then, Patches wants to know what the last album you listened to all the way through is. Then: We didn't do a Ghostbusters review last week because this week we throw down on Paul Feig's 2016 incarnation.

Plus HBO's Not-Game of Thrones "The Night Of"

This week, Joanna Robinson begins to fill in for Katey (who is out on maternity leave). She's joined by David, Patches and Da7e as they discuss HBO's nine-part crime miniseries The Night Of (no spoilers beyond the premiere!), the sudden popularity of Pokémon Go and why when big franchises change it sometimes upsets us (prompted by the reaction of some people to the new Ghostbusters).

Swiss-Army-Man-Featured

With Special Guest Neil Miller!

This week, Katey Rich finally has Charlie Gul'Dan and David's on assignment, so Matt Patches and Da7e invite Film School Rejects' Neil Miller over from the Citadel of Crazytown to fight in our war room. This week, the guys all like Swiss Army Man, the Paul Dano and Daniel Radcliffe farting corpse movie, and it's wide so YOU can see it too! Then, with David and Katey gone, Patches and Da7e can finally talk Hearthstone. It's all wrapped up by a discussion about how this year's summer movie season isn't making anyone excited.
