071 - Remember when Kevin said no more superhero movies? Yeah me either and that's why we're covering WB/DC/At&t's Wonder Woman 1984... a movie that wants you to desperately know that it takes place in the 80s as it uses ever dated and tired joke about the era. Who's the antagonist you ask? Probably loneliness or maybe society for casting a bunch of misfits out into the cold, forcing them to wish for dumb shit. Now, let's all fall in love with Chris Pine for the next two hours and hold that torch for the rest of our lives.

The New Mutants
064 - 2020 wouldn't be complete without the release of The New Mutants! That's right, what could be better than a movie filmed in 2017, shelved for a year and reshot, then shelved for a year and finally released because Disney had nothing in the tank and needed to take a chance on something associated with Marvel... loosely associated with Marvel.

Superman: Man of Tomorrow
056 - At some point if DC/WB is going to keep making movies and comics titled "Man of Tomorrow" they're going to need to remember that the phrase is implying an eye on the future rather than this hogwash that tows the line of old and new. It looks like an anime, but it views like an old person wrote the weekend they didn't have their kids and had binged too many Superman The Animated Series episodes in a row... oh and fucking Lobo is in it. Yeah they love Lobo, they don't do anything with him, but they fucking love that dude.
Synopsis:
Superman's origin, but he's dumb and doesn't know what a Krypton is so he just punches his problems away until the world's most over experienced janitor gets forbidden juiced spilled on him. Now Superman, must call himself Superman and remember that hurting people isn't the bumblefuck Kansas way.

Deathstroke - Knights and Dragons
051 - We're back with our second animated feature and it might be out last. At least from the WB direct to Bluray variety. We're talking about Deathstroke: Knights & Dragons, which may have been a TV show at one point, but is definitely an hour and a half movie. Deathstroke is a talented DM for the DC Universes D&D knockoff game K&D... nah, just kidding that would be a way better movie.
Synopsis:
Ten years ago, Slade Wilson-aka the super-assassin called Deathstroke-made a tragic mistake and his wife and son paid a terrible price. Now, a decade later, Wilson's family is threatened once again by the murderous Jackal and the terrorists of H.IV.E. Can Deathstroke atone for the sins of the past-or will his family pay the ultimate price?

The Last Days of American Crime
042 - Everyone on the internet is asking the question, "Last Days of American Crime really that bad?" The answer to that question is easy... yes. I bet you thought you had to listen to an entire podcast to find out, no you'll have to listen to an entire podcast to find out why it's so bad. Please do that instead of watching the movie.
As a final response to terrorism and crime, the U.S. government plans to broadcast a signal making it impossible for anyone to knowingly commit unlawful acts. Graham Bricke (Edgar Ramírez), a career criminal who was never able to hit the big score, teams up with famous gangster progeny Kevin Cash (Michael C. Pitt), and black market hacker Shelby Dupree (Anna Brewster), to commit the heist of the century and the last crime in American history before the signal goes off.
