STAR WARS SPECIAL – Episode 5: Eels, Scarabs and Space Bears, Oh My
Episode VIII has begun.
The Fighting In The War Room podcast family acknowledges that Star Wars Mania is here to stay now that Disney-purchased Lucasfilm plans to spin the saga and anthology movies out into the foreseeable future. It’s time to fight in the galactic war room for the foreseeable future! We’ll never see STAR PEACE.
In the fifth Star Wars Special, Joanna Robinson, Matt Patches, Neil Miller and Da7e catch up on the Star Wars Universe news since they last convened in Episode 4. New York Toy Fair 2016 came and went without a bunch of Star Wars To-Do, but we did get a Force Friday 2016 announcement and a giant 16″ BB-8 that has Da7e excited. The Lego Star Wars Universe is expanding with both Resistance Rises shorts and a new Disney XD TV series, StarWars.com gave away the secrets of Rey’s portion bread and OH YEAH, EPISODE VIII: SPACE BEAR STARTED SHOOTING! Laura Dern, Benicio Del Toro and Kelly Marie Tran are added to the cast. We speculate on what that can be (SPECULATE, Episode VIII info is sparse) before jumping into the SPOILER section, which is choc-full of Rogue One goodness.
I find your lack of SPOILER faith disturbing! – Spoiler discussion starts at 45:39

Thought Bubble 36 – Zoom Zoom
Thought Bubble | | 25. February, 2016
A podcast about Comics Pop Culture!
Hello FITWR listeners, Republic City Dispatch fanatics and Storm of Spoilers/Cast of Kings fantasy nerds, we’re back for more comics discussion!
New comics enthusiast Joanna Robinson of Vanity Fair’s Hollywood and The Station Agents podcast is joined by a guy who was surprised he wasn’t a constant in the multiverse, Da7e Gonzales of Geek.com and Latino-Review.com
No matter your level of engagement, if you’re interested in comic books and their surrounding pop culture, this show’s for you!
THIS WEEK: SURPRISE! The reveal of Zoom’s identity on CW’s The Flash has Jo and Da7e meeting for an emergency session of The Thought Bubble, but DON’T WORRY, they have other comics stuff to talk about! Jo has been reading more Image Comics and Da7e turns a corner on Dark Knight III (and forgets the title “The Dark Knight Strikes Again“). Direct Market sales might be in jeopardy by the comics industry and Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice is upping the violence for a home release alternate cut. THEN, the pair dive into wild speculation about Zoom before a very quick SPOILER SECTION.
SPOILERS START AT 38 minutes 10 seconds, Juice!

108 – Do horror movies have to be really scary?
Plus The Mermaid and a segment called “Alex Proyas: Good Director?”
Katey has disappeared to prepare for Oscar coverage, so Da7e, Patches and David strike up another Brocast. First, With Gods of Egypt coming to theaters this week, Patches wants to ask: “Alex Proyas: good director?” Then, David catches Patches and Da7e up on China’s newest theatrical sensation The Mermaid. Finally, the trio talk about some of the backlash recently against The Witch (which we discussed last episode) and debate the semantics of “scary” when it comes to horror film.

THIS WEEK: Jo and Da7e both saw DEADPOOL! And judging from the box office, so did everyone else. After answering some listener e-mails, the duo jump into discussing the new cast additions to now-shooting Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, fantasy draft a CW team of superheroes then finally delve directly into Deadpool and what the consequences of that film’s success could be. There is NO SPOILER SECTION this week, but we do reccommend you see Deadpool first if you’re worried about plot spoilers.
