  We’re joined this week by long time friend and fan Justin Thiele – who brings us plenty of reasons why LAST ACTION HERO is not worthy of the title of BEST SUMMER BLOCKBUSTER FILM. That’s right, folks, it’s time for another battle episode and we’ve got some great movies to talk about. Jon defends PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: THE CURSE OF THE BLACK PEARL but can’t say the title right. Bryan makes a scary-good case for JAWS. Chewie whisks us away to nostalgia-town with TWISTER. Ryan dons the fedora and defends RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK. So, which movie wins? Just going to have to listen to the episode and find out!   MAY THE BEST BLOCKBUSTER WIN!

They’re shaking up the podcast formula a bit to talk the original “Civil War” event, and then hype both the upcoming movie and the sequel comic series! And they ask perhaps the most important question in all of podcast history: whose side are you on?   CIVIL WAR (2006-2007) Each of the hosts read the main event as well as a varied selection of comics surrounding the event. They discuss that just reading the main event itself misses some of the punch because of [SPOILERS].   CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR Bryan, Ryan, and Jon are pretty hyped about the new movie, and they share their excitement, their worries, and their concerns. Possible spoiler talk, which will be proven true or false come the film’s release.   CIVIL WAR 2 Ryan gives Bryan and Jon the scoop on what to expect from the upcoming arc.
