    #66 Brooklyn Nine-Nine & TV Cancellations

    Lots of big news happening in TV this week, seeing up's and down's, cancellations and renewals. While Brooklyn Nine-Nine got most of the spotlight, there was a myriad of other shows rustling about.  This week, we wanted to cover the lifecycle of a television show, and some of the inner-workings you might not be aware of when it comes to how TV gets made! Later in the show, we’ll talk about our thoughts on the new Predator trailer, an exciting new Star Wars live-action TV show is in the works, and one of our favorite movie franchises will become a most excellent trilogy!

    #65 Disney Domination

    Avengers: Infinity War broke a BAJILLION dollars in record time, ELEVEN DAYS, and that got us thinking ... Disney is kinda running the world now when it comes to entertainment, but we don’t often hear their name associated with properties you’d expect, like Marvel or Lucasfilm. Of course, we know this, and a lot of movie fans “know” this, but is it fair to assume that the general movie-going populace does?  We don’t think so ... they’re just going to the movies on a Friday night to see the thing they’ve been seeing commercials for that looks cool. In this episode, we break down how Disney has become so dominant in the entertainment marketplace, and the side effects this has on consumers as well as the entire industry itself! Enjoy! SPECIAL FEATURE: Thank you to ArchyJ, aka "TheSnakeCharmer," for making this amazing theme arrangement!

    #63 Avengers Infinity War & MCU Viewing Order

    Avengers: Infinity War is coming out this weekend, and as we thought more about it, we never really paid attention to [or were given any reason to care] the Infinity Stones (Gems in the comics), where they were, or why they mattered in the grand scheme of things. So what we wanted to do in this episode was give you a run down of the Official Concession Stand order of the films, as we think you should see them, and along the way track the discovery and relevance of the stones as they apply to the upcoming film, and why you need to know about this to truly enjoy the “marvel” (tee hee) of what they have accomplished through three phases and 18 movies of the MCU in the last 10 years. As promised in the episode, here is our official Concession Stand order of all 18 films how we believe they should be viewed ... Capt America: First Avenger Iron Man Iron Man 2 Incredible Hulk Thor Avengers Thor Dark World Guardians Guardians 2 Iron Man 3 Capt America: Winter Soldier Avengers 2: Ultron Ant-Man Capt America: Civil War Black Panther Spider-Man Homecoming Doctor Strange Thor Ragnarok ...and there you have it!

    #62 Rampage & The Disaster Movie Revival

    Rampage, the latest giant action movie with Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, is based on a video game but we feel it falls into a much more important genre: The Disaster Movie.   The disaster movie was a huge and surprising success in the 1970s, made a resurgence throughout the 90s and now we’re excited that they seem to be making a bit of a comeback.  In this episode, we’re going to give you a bit of a history lesson of the disaster movie, list some of our favorites, and and try and figure out what makes them so popular.
