Episode 122: I'm more of an Emperor Protector

Welcome back yall!  Here's another 2 shows in a row.  I only mention this fact because we've been a little on and off over the past 2 months due to many adventures by both Bat and I.  Which, just as a forewarning, we will probably be missing another episode or two due to a very busy September for us.  But in the mean time this week we are treated to the first movie in a Month of Cage.  It started out as a joke and then escalated rather quickly into a month long bad Cage movie-thon... this is going to be fun.  First we bring you our streaming review of the Manikin Skywalker and Nick Cage movie, Outcast.  On top of that we also discuss the Force Friday toy release, Megaman movie possible with Fox, Halo 5 intro movie, Chris Evans on returning as Captain America and some behind the scenes drama at Marvel Studios.

As stated last episode back on Episode 106 we decided to put a bet on Antman's domestic gross and we both lost.  There is video proof on our Facebook page for all of you to view and enjoy.  Take heed, ice cold Smirnoff Ice is the devil.

This Week's dynamic duo of Hayden Christenson and Nicolas Cage brought us the special little movie called Outcast.  Hayden hasn't really been known for grade A acting and Cage has been notoriously bad, especially as of late.  Neither of these disappointed, well the did but not in the normal matter.  To put it blandly this is bad. Acting wise, cinematography, action wise, story wise... the list goes on and on.  Again this movie is not good and I think both of us want to make a new game of naming movies that are rated better than Fantastic Four but are waaaaay worse.  This is one of them.  I gave it 2/5 stars (generous) and Bat gave it an honest 1/5.  Don't waste your time unless you enjoy VERY bad movies that guest star Cage.



Next weeks streaming suggestion comes from myself and is the 2nd in our month of Cage.  This time we are 'treating' ourselves to the religious remake, Left Behind.  Oh this ones gonna be bad so be forewarned.   Watch the trailer and be mortified or very curious... we're a little of both again.

Also if you want to see the wonderfully ridiculousness that is the Halo 5 introduction cinematic check it out below.



And if you haven't seen it yet, here is the first of the series that was created by Monty Oum called Dead Fantasy.  If you watch through the series I think you'll see some parallels to the bombastic action.
