    Anaconda Review aka "White Variant"

    We are here to provide your post election relief, with a trip to the rainforest with Jennifer Lopez, Jon Voigt, and some really big snakes. But first, we play a little game we call Catch That Quotable. Doug asks the crew to rank some monster animal movies. Then we get into the 1997 classic movie "Anaconda." We talk about Jon Voight's acting choices, the energy Jennifer Lopez brought to the movie, and all the crazy quirks in between.

    Venom 3: The Last Dance Review aka "The Lethal Rider"

    It is a Doug and Marcus special everybody! On this episode we touch a little bit of everything. BUT FIRST, we play a little game we like to call Catch That Quotable. Then Marcus gives us a run down of his favorite anime, and what watching anime has done for his music. Then Doug asks Marcus to rank these Spider-Man Villains(Mysterio, Scorpion, Kraven, Vulture, and Lizard). Finally, we dive into the Sony Pictures/Marvel movie "Venom 3: The Last Dance" starring Tom Hardy, Juno Temple, and Chiwetel Ejiofor. We talk about our shared love of the symbiote design, and whether Sony's contract owning Spider-man as well as his characters is making more problems than it solves.

    Joker 2: Folie a Deux Review aka "Hat Party"

    The podcast episode takes listeners on a rollercoaster ride through their viewing experience of "Joker: Folie à Deux," offering a candid and humorous critique of the film’s shortcomings. While the film featured impressive performances from Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix, the hosts express disappointment over the lack of a compelling storyline and the underutilization of key characters, particularly Harley Quinn. The discussion centers on how the film’s attempt to balance its musical elements with the dark, psychological nature of the Joker character created a muddled experience that left audiences confused rather than engaged. Insights into filmmaking choices that contributed to the film's failure to resonate with the audience are shared, alongside reflections on the broader implications for comic book adaptations in cinema. Their take on the film serves as both a review and a cautionary tale about the pitfalls of straying too far from established character arcs and narratives.

    "Joker" Recap aka "Jack Skellington Tramp Stamp"

    This week on the pod, we are doing some prep work for Joker: Folie a Deux by taking a trip back to 2019 when the first "Joker" was released. But first, Marcus and Doug outline their trip to SiouxperCon, the comic-con that takes place in Sioux Falls, SD. We detail our haul including some of the friendly encouragement that takes place. We also outline how our world-building minds can be triggered by something so simple. Then, we do a deep dive into 2019's Joker. We talk about why this movie feels so heavy as well as some of the reasons why we aren't super interested in giving it a re-watch. Marcus brings us home with a detailed prediction of what we can expect from the sequel.
