53 – Nostalgia Is Killing Us and 2015 isn’t like Back To The Future Part II
Plus what we watched over break!
This week, Katey, Patches David and Da7e are in 2015, the Year of our Time Lord Doctor Emmett Brown and where the **** are our hoverboards and self-fitting jackets in Thriller-ready red? This year there’s an unusual amount of movies coming up designed to pull on the old nostalgia heart-strings (otherwise how do you justify a Point Break remake?). The gang tackles this while also applying fast-acting nostalgia to the things they watched at the tail end of 2014. Some of them deserve your consideration!

Hello FITWR listeners, Republic City Dispatch fantatics and Storm of Spoilers/Cast of Kings fantasy nerds, we’re back! New comics enthusiast Joanna Robinson of Vanity Fair’s Hollywood and The Station Agents podcast is joined by a guy who spent a lot of this week listening to Rockapella, Da7e Gonzales of Latino-Review.com and Forbes.com, to answer YOUR comic book questions.
This very special episode covers the first installment of the Agent Carter mini-series that debuts on ABC next TUESDAY JANUARY 6TH. Beware the advanced section this week, as it spoils where we might be going in the next few episodes.
The podcast has TWO SECTIONS: “General” and “Advanced.” The first “General” section is for EVERYONE and won’t spoil anything that hasn’t happened on screen in a movie yet nor will Da7e be allowed to explain multiple arcs that might become spoilers.
