Welcome dear friends back to another week in geek! This week we review the new Disney live action embodiment of Maleficent. As usual we provide a Spoiler Free but if you want to really delve into what we thought of all aspects of the movie check out the Spoilerific review at the end of the podcast.
We also discuss this week’s Streaming Review, Pain and Gain. This was one of those strange movies that I wanted to see in the theaters but just never got around to it and it’s a movie that Bat all together just wanted to avoid. After watching it though I can say this one was a definite “wait for streaming” movie. We both enjoyed it enough to both give it 3/5 rating on Netflix and say you should give this one a watch. But we both agreed that this is a one off movie, not really worth repeat viewings. Listen in if you want to get our thoughts as to what we did and didn’t like about this one
Bats suggestion for next week’s Streaming Review is called TheDirties. This movie was promoted through Kevin
Smith’s movie club, calling it one of “the most important films of the year.” The
movie is about two best friends filming a comedy about getting revenge on
the bullies at their high school. Only, one of them isn't joking. Check out the trailer
below to see what you are in for. Also
Variety did a pretty interesting article on the creation of the film that can
be found here.
This weeks nerd news round up includes: Josh Brolin cast as Thanos, Roland Emmerich's Stargate trillogy and his distaste for ID Forever's title, Sony's changes to Playstation Plus, Jurrassic Park World rumors confirmed, Charlie Cox cast as Daredevil and Nintendo trying to make amends with Youtubers.
