From the frustratingly shaky camcorder tropes and the tragic villain arc of Andrew, to the hilarious logistics of filming a massive superhero battle while getting punched through buildings. The guys break down what worked, what didn't, and why robbing an ATM with your mind makes way more sense than beating up drug dealers.Grab your popcorn and join the conversation!
