We just saw the best Superman movie in a long time and we sped off faster than a speeding bullet to our mics to talk about it. What worked? Was there anything that didn’t? How good is that casting?! And what does this mean for the DCU going forward? Join us on the spoiler free…
This episode is a bit different. Jim and A.Ron give an update on why they are stopping their The Boys coverage as of this episode.
The Boys are back for season 4 on Amazon Prime! Mother’s Milk is failing as the CEO. The Deep isn’t to be taken seriously. Homelander is aging and hating every second of it. What is Frenchie’s deal? In the first three episodes of the new season, Jim and A.Ron have found plenty of shock, cringe, and mayhem already!
Jim and A.Ron are blasting back into the world of The Boys for season 4 on Amazon Prime. Billy Butcher is set on his path of destruction. Homelander is training up his son to be the next superpowered homicidal megalomaniac just like him. How cute. Grab a bag of tortilla chips, there’s a lot of chunky salsa in your future.
The awesome presence of Chadwick Boseman is definitely missed, but don’t let that get you too down! Marvel produces yet another gem (or Infinity Stone, ha ha) for their catalog. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is an action-packed movie that also explores delicate levels of grief AND delivers on great CGI. The astounding performances from Angela Bassett, Letitia Wright, and Lupita Nyong’o will have you saying, “Wakanda Forever”!
Our next First Run movies will be Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery and Avatar: The Way of Water!
Ok. Um, ok. Here we go. DC hasn’t quite cracked the Marvel formula for making fun movies. It begs the question, can the most charismatic man on the planet pull off DC’s latest deep cut? Black Adam owes some copyright fines to all those superheroes that you actually like. It’s not great, but it bolsters the Rock’s standing in the Bald Move Badass Hall of Fame…so there’s that!
Keep watch for the next First Run movies, Wakanda Forever and The Fabelmans!
Season 3 is over and while the finale wasn’t exactly to our tastes, it was a pretty good season overall. We’re back for one final podcast to consider your thoughts before we close the book on this season.
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.
What happens when you cross demented nursery rhymes and Empire Strikes Back? This episode of The Boys. With the members of the show living out different plot lines, it doesn’t quite feel like the boys are back in town. But that doesn’t stop the classic “Boys” antics of beating the living daylights out of each other. We’re seeing great characterization of Soldier Boy and the not so great use of the “Chris Pratt calming right hand” technique and we’re asking you to stop.
It’s a shocking thing to be witness to Herogasm, let me tell you. What’s more shocking still is to be witness to Herogasm yet somehow underwhelmed by its depravity. Even though the event itself disappointed, the episode did not. Join us for the podcast for a discussion of what went wrong and what went oh so right.
