Bloodshot, or Jim Shooters (feat. Graham)

Today we tackle yet another incipient cinematic universe that never made it past one movie because half the character rights went to another studio before release and then had its opening weekend just as every theater in America was closing due to COVID. It's Bloodshot starring Vin Diesel (who's terrible in it by the way), the first and last entry in the Valiant Cinematic Universe and a movie that seemingly fell out of a portal from 2009 after your high school drug dealer tripped and fell while trying to put the copy he owns into the DVD player. Kinda like if RoboCop and Total Recall did the fusion dance and it came out with a significantly lower IQ. We talk about the movie for maybe 15 minutes before Cole and returning guest/comic artist extraordinaire Graham (@EddieMcstriplin) talk about this really tall guy named Jim Shooter who once had an effigy of himself burned because Marvel employees were mad at him or something.
