    Tons of snark between hosts, to much

  • Getting really good!

    This podcast has surprised me. At first they were just a bunch of guys talking about super hero movies. They would only appreciate movies for that demographic, which was frustrating. But lately they are reviewing a wide range of movies with a wider range of opinions. I’ve been really impressed and they have become one of my favourite film podcast. Highly recommended
