Starring Natalie Portman’s arms! Adding to the ever-evolving Thor mythos, Love and Thunder was an addition to the Marvel canon that was bright, mostly fun, and oozes Taiki Waititi’s style. In a crazy GNR backed romp, Thor Classic and Thor Jane take on a villain that makes us go “Wow, Christian Bale should play the Joker.” In a half-good, half-eye rolling movie, there’s fun for everyone, so long as you don’t mind the jokes.
Ouch. A lot of people avoided becoming chunky salsa, and we’re actually disappointed. The episode had to pack in A LOT of information to wrap up the season full of psychopaths and potential patricide. Between the smackdowns, The Deep’s stoic murder felt too tame and that’s when we know that The Boys has corrupted our brains. And, um, where did Stan Edgar go?! Next season looks like it might be a return to a similar place as Season 2.
Are you spotting smoke and decrypting parallels from previous seasons? Maybe you should work for the FBI. Let’s ponder the question “what makes a person”? What is the show trying to say about the meaning of being sentient and alive? And how many times are we going to go back and forth between deciding if this is real or a simulation? Grab a Methuselah sized bottle of wine and enjoy the wild theories in this episode.
Let’s take a look at Season 4 before Season 5 comes out…in a few years. In the meantime, can we appreciate how the Stranger Things fanbase is still around for this great show? In a season that could have easily gone wrong, so many things went oh so right and we couldn’t be happier. Join us as we discuss things we missed in Season 4 and what a time jump into the early 90s could look like in Season 5. We’ll be back with more Stranger Things coverage when Season 5 hits Netflix, we’ll see you then!
CHAMPION. CHARISMA. CHARACTER.
Find out what it takes for A.Ron and Jim to qualify you as a “badass”. Get a peek at the extremely niche and erudite system that turns ranking into an art. With an expectation of adding future badasses to the rankings, we might need to blow up our resin Mt. Rushmore from time to time. How badass would that be?
Eleven gets her powers back, but has she completed the full jedi training? Have we seen the last of Dr. Brenner’s magnificent mane? Does Steve have haunted dreams? And, yes, our first clue about season 5!
The metaphors are coming down heavily with the use of the book My Father’s Dragon and the opera Don Giovanni. In a show where people who seem like they should be dead are alive, we can’t trust our own eyes. Does everything in this reality have an explanation, or are we watching an abstracted reality? Is Christina unconsciously carrying an encryption key? Join us as we discuss this and more theories in this episode breakdown.
CHAMPION. CHARISMA. CHARACTER.
Arnold Schwarzenegger, the epitome of badassness, is facing down Green Berets and Freddie Mercury mustaches. Not only will you see Arnold achieve his highest body count in a movie, you’ll see some really awesome stunts pre-CGI age. The script comes from Steven E. de Souza who also penned Die Hard, 48 Hours, and Judge Dread, so the violent act per minute rate is nice and high. Listen in as Jim and A.Ron as they discuss a movie that crashes, smashes, and overall is a raucous good time.
Is it a simulation? Is it real life? Does your brain hurt yet? Hopefully any cranial discomfort is due to confusion and not black goo between your ears. We’ve got some theories on how this season is going to pan out. Join us as we try to figure out which reality we can trust.
Do your theories include predictions? We love those. Send in those and your feedback to westworld@baldmove.com.
