Geeks Unleashed Geeks Unleashed

And here we are... The movie in this series we like to pretend doesn't exist. Now in 2024, is this film as bad as it was back in 2006? Listen in to hear what we think!

A rare occasion in film where the sequel is better than the original? We certainly think X2 fits the bill. We did get a bit sidetracked at the beginning of the episode with our discussion on Quiet On Set. Trigger warning, we do briefly mention some of the abuse that the documentary covers.

We are back this week with, arguably, the film that kicked off our higher expectations in the Superhero film genre. (2008 took that to new heights, but that's another conversation for another day...) X-Men, or as Mark calls it, The Wolverine Show, really raised the bar for comic book films! All this and more as we continue our run of all the mutant films!

And here we go! Kicking off our BIGGEST themed run EVER -- the Geeks are tackling every single X-Men film. And yes, we mean EVERY one of them. Starting with Fox's failed attempt at getting a live action series going back in the late 90s. We're starting with Generation X and we've got some friends to help us out. This week, we're joined by Phable and Lynk!

Finishing up our time on Earth-701306, and we're grateful there weren't anymore sequels here. The year was 2005, the soundtrack is blah (compared to Daredevil two years prior), and a lot people phoned it on for this one.
