Plus, David is a Fanboy about Radiohead

This week, Katey, Patches, Da7e and David hear you: That Captain America: Civil War review last Friday was divisive. Our comments and Twitters felt the force of Civil War fans who felt David and Patches went too hard on the film, so this week as a way of using that to further discussion, David talks about Radiohead’s new album Moon Shaped Pool helped him understand Marvel fandom, then Katey and Da7e get a whole segment to respond to Friday’s review and the comments left on FightingInTheWarRoom.com. Then, Jodie Foster’s Money Monster is coming out this week with Julia Roberts and George Clooney as the stars, but it doesn’t seem like those names hold the sway they used to. Is Money Monster a relic of an older form of star power?

Ratchet-and-Clank

With Special Guest Chris Plante!

This week, Katey, Patches, Da7e and David are joined for a third segment by Chris Plante of TheVerge.com because David was forced to see video game film adaptation of Ratchet and Clank and we thought maybe an expert video game opinion was required to answer some of the deeper questions of the film’s mere existence. Before that, the regular four hosts talk about the state of modern theatrical comedy, since Da7e saw Keanu this weekend and was one of the few
