Hey guys, welcome back!

This week, we are talking about what is probably the biggest box office disappointment of the year so far. The Flash had everything it needed to be great, but it zigged when it should have zagged way too many times.

In this episode we get into our biggest issues with the film, its saving graces, and why it had some good concepts, but it didn't expand on it, in a positive way. We also share our thoughts on the...

Welcome Back guys!

This week, we are revisiting the past while also talking about the present. We are discussing Power Rangers: Once and Always and why it just...isn't there. While CJ may not be a big fan, Power Rangers was a key part of Shelby's childhood. And to say he's disappointed, is a bit of an understatement. We talk about why it misses the mark, what it could have done better, and why it could have treated some of the other...

Hey Guys!


This week we are discussing the Demon Slayer Theater experience: To the Swordsmith Village!
We had the chance to check it out this past weekend. Could it have been done differently, yes! Did some of the marketing make it seem like the episodes would be blended together? Maybe.
