Quantum Reaction: Movie Franchise Midterms

It's almost time for midterms, and Cory and Nick have decided to make enemies of every film fandom, by passing out report cards to every major franchise (and their fans).

After kicking off with heartfelt tributes to the entertainment legends we've lost, Cory and Nick dive in to give their honest opinions and grades some of the biggest movie franchises and just how toxic their fans might be.

We dive headfirst into the labyrinth of movie franchises, tackling everything from "Planet of the Apes" to "Transformers," "Ghostbusters," and more. We explore the rollercoaster of emotions these series evoke, from the nostalgic highs of their original releases to the exasperation with their endless sequels and reboots. Expect passionate debates on the merits and downfalls of each franchise, as well as thought-provoking discussions on franchise fatigue and the need for fresh, innovative ideas in today's entertainment landscape.

In the latter part of our discussion, we explore the powerful cultural implications of these franchises and the unique fan cultures they spawn. We compare the dedicated followings of "Indiana Jones," "Jurassic Park," "James Bond," and horror movie series, delving into what makes these fanbases tick. We reflect on their past glories and speculate on their future trajectories. Join us for an episode brimming with nostalgia, sharp critique, and lively discussions that will leave you contemplating the enduring allure of these cinematic giants (or ready to fight us on site).
