    TOTLB 515 Saw X

    TOTLB 515 Saw X

    It's been a while since a new Saw movie came out, and even longer since one came out that was pretty well received and had Jigsaw as the primary character. This is a prequel in which we found out a lot about how Jigsaw became Jigsaw, and the motivations behind why. We are talking about Saw X!



    "Hoping for a miraculous cure, John Kramer travels to Mexico for a risky and experimental medical procedure, only to discover the entire operation is a scam to defraud the most vulnerable. Armed with a newfound purpose, the infamous serial killer uses deranged and ingenious traps to turn the tables on the con artists."



    If you're a horror fan and have maybe jumped off the Saw bandwagon, I think you should definitely consider watching this entry in the series. It won't disappoint and it may actually reinvigorate.

    TOTLB 514 Gen V

    TOTLB 514 Gen V

    Listen, we enjoy The Boys as much as probably the average viewer. We don't hate it, but we also don't fawn all over it. Sometimes it can be way over the top, even for us, and that says a lot. BUT we had to watch the spin-off just in case this was more our cup of tea. We sat down in order to watch Gen V.



    "Gen V is an American superhero television series, developed by Craig Rosenberg, Evan Goldberg, and Eric Kripke, serving as a spin-off of The Boys by Kripke, and based on The Boys comic book story arc "We Gotta Go Now" by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson. The series stars Jaz Sinclair, Chance Perdomo, Lizze Broadway, Maddie Phillips, London Thor, Derek Luh, Asa Germann, and Shelley Conn in main roles."



    It is interesting and different enough for the spin-off, but if you're looking for something at least a little toned down, this still isn't it. But, if you're looking for the hard hitting, way over the top show, then this is a must watch!

    TOTLB 513 TWD Dead City

    TOTLB 513 TWD Dead City

    I think for the most part, we were all sad when AMC announced that The Walking Dead proper would be coming to an end! Some of those fears were assuaged when it was also announced that there would be a few spin-offs coming, but the more exciting news was who would be starring in those spin-offs. Today we are talking about the Maggie & Negan series, The Dead City!



    "The series follows Maggie and Negan traveling into a post-apocalyptic Manhattan cut off from the mainland in search of Maggie's kidnapped son, Hershel. The crumbling city is filled with the dead and denizens who have made New York City their own world full of anarchy, danger, beauty, and terror."



    With three new spin-offs out/or announced, we can still live in the world of the dead, and that is still an exciting prospect! Don't miss out on this series!

    TOTLB 512 Oppenheimer

    TOTLB 512 Oppenheimer

    Summer of 2023 was a pretty crazy time when it came to today's topic! Somehow this movie got intertwined with the Barbie movie, and though I'm not 100% sure why this happened, it was such a fine time for the movie industry! I don't want to say that Barbie made Oppenheimer the film that it was, but it definitely didn't hurt, and Oppenheimer is a killer good movie as well!!



    "During World War II, Lt. Gen. Leslie Groves Jr. appoints physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer to work on the top-secret Manhattan Project. Oppenheimer and a team of scientists spend years developing and designing the atomic bomb. Their work comes to fruition on July 16, 1945, as they witness the world's first nuclear explosion, forever changing the course of history."



    Doyle, at the beginning of this episode, labels this movie as the scariest film that wasn't a horror film! The more and more you think about the film, and the circumstances, the more and more you think that this is probably a true statement!

    TOTLB 511 Cloverfield

    TOTLB 511 Cloverfield

    It's time to go back to the year 2008 for today's pop culture classic pick! This pick came in from one of our awesome patreon supporters! We are of course talking about the cult classic film, Cloverfield!



    "As a group of New Yorkers (Michael Stahl-David, Mike Vogel, Odette Yustman) enjoy a going-away party, little do they know that they will soon face the most terrifying night of their lives. A creature the size of a skyscraper descends upon the city, leaving death and destruction in its wake. Using a handheld video camera, the friends record their struggle to survive as New York crumbles around them."



    Cloverfield was super polarizing when it originally came out! It was controversial for how it was shot, and there were many stories of people coming out of theaters while throwing up. This of course came from the new camera angle that, though maybe not invented by the Cloverfield team, was definitely made much more popular. If somehow you've made it these sixteen years without seeing this movie, you're doing yourself a disservice, and you need to go check it out now!

    TOTLB S141 J. Michael Straczynski

    TOTLB S141 J. Michael Straczynski

    There are many real deep nerd culture projects. These are projects that, while very well liked and guarded in our community, they generally tend to fly under the radar for the general public! Babylon 5 is one of those shows! We had the opportunity to interview J. Michael Straczynski during a round table, and speak to him about Babylon 5: The Road Home!



    "John Sheridan unexpectedly finds himself transported through multiple timelines and alternate realities. Along the way, he reunites with some familiar faces and discovers cosmic new revelations about the history, purpose and meaning of the universe."



    It was such a HUGE honor of ours to meet and speak with J. Michael Straczynski, and I know that Albie, our interview was in awe of the situation! Such a fun interview to talk about his career, and process, especially as there had been some stars who had passed away before this was made, and the respectful nature in which that was honored!
