Episode 92: Empty Fili-ings

Welcome back dear listener!  Tis the season of slow news and our 2nd anniversary episode and you know what that means?  That's right, it's time for another Hobbit movie and a whole of lot bullshitery!  Really though it's kind of hard to believe we've already been at this for two years and it only seems right that our anniversary is heralded with the movie series that started it all. We want to just give a genuine and heartfelt thank you to everyone out there listening/reading.  We really appreciate all of your support and input, it makes us feel all fuzzy every time we get to meet or talk with you wonderfully geeky guys and gals.

Now with all of that merriment out of the way lets get to this weeks streaming review of Knights of Badassdom.  This movie is pure silly with a health dose of gore.  Seriously everyone dies in this damn movie.  Death aside, this was a wonderfully strange ride with a few notable actors and some pretty gruesome deaths.  If you had seen "Unicorn City," "Gamers: Dorkness Rising" or other LARP/Table Top RPG movies you kind of know what you are in for.  While this may not appeal to everyone both of us enjoyed it plenty enough to give it 3/5 on Netflix and would recommend it.

 

Our next and possibly last streaming review for this year is going to be In A World.  The movie centers around the daughter of a renowned movie announcer who is trying to make her mark in her fathers business.  Just say the movie title out loud in a dramatic way and you will know who her father is. Enjoy the trailer below and here's to hoping the movie is enjoyable. 

If you want to join us on our third (and possibly final) December movie of the month you can find this movie on Netflix. You can send us your reviews or your suggestions for our next streaming review via Facebook, Twitter or email us at Batandhammer@gmail.com
