X-Men: First Class - Ep. 412 Suit up, Normies, because class is officially in session! Your hosts travel back to 1962 to witness the beginning of the X-Men in X-Men: First Class. Before Professor X and Magneto were bitter enemies, Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr were two friends with very different ideas about the future of mutantkind. We’re talking James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender stepping into two iconic roles, Kevin Bacon chewing scenery as Sebastian Shaw, January Jones bringing the diamond-hard attitude as Emma Frost, and a young team of mutants learning to control their powers just in time to prevent World War III. Does Matthew Vaughn’s stylish prequel still rank among the best films in the X-Men franchise? How well does the friendship between Charles and Erik hold up? And just how much does this movie care about the continuity of the films that came before it? Grab your yellow-and-blue uniform, fire up Cerebro, and remember — peace was never an option — on this mutant-filled episode of Normies Like Us!

X-Men Origins: Wolverine - Ep. 411 On this episode of Normies Like Us, we’re digging into Logan’s mysterious past, his complicated relationship with Sabretooth, the Weapon X program, adamantium skeletons, questionable CGI claws, and a version of Deadpool that probably should have stayed buried. Hugh Jackman is back as Wolverine, Liev Schreiber is having the time of his life, and somehow Will.i.am is here too! Is X-Men Origins: Wolverine really as bad as we remember? Are there some diamonds hiding underneath all that adamantium? And just how badly can you misunderstand Deadpool before Ryan Reynolds demands a do-over? Grab your leather jacket, hop on your motorcycle, and start walking away from explosions without looking back as Normies Like Us goes back to the beginning! SNIKT the link below!

About This Episode: 2025 Top 10 Films - Ep 380: New Year, New Normies, Last Year's Best of Lists! We count down our Top 10 Films of 2025, the movies that lived rent-free in our heads long after the credits rolled. We’re breaking down what made 2025 such a memorable year at the movies, and it’s certainly not the other theater goers that keep us showing up to the theater. Grab some popcorn and argue along with our hot takes and last ditch efforts at recommending hidden gems. Agree with us? Probably not—and that’s half the fun! Somehow heartbreak feels good in a Normie like this. @Normies_Like_Us https://www.instagram.com/normies_like_us/ @jacob https://www.instagram.com/_j__a___c___o__b_/ @Mike_Has_Insta https://www.instagram.com/mike_has_insta/ https://letterboxd.com/BabblingBrooksy/ https://letterboxd.com/hobbes72/ https://letterboxd.com/mikejromans/

Stranger Things Series Finale: Episode 378 - It all comes down to this. On this episode of Normies Like Us, we’re heading back to Hawkins one last time to talk about the final stretch of Season 5 and the series finale of Stranger Things. The bikes are parked, the gates are closing, and a show that defined a decade of genre TV has officially come to an end. We dig into the biggest moments from the last part of the season, the emotional hits, the character send-offs, and whether the finale delivered on all those years of buildup. Who stuck the landing? Which arcs paid off? What surprised us, disappointed us, or completely wrecked us? We break down the themes, the nostalgia, the horror, and the spectacle—without pretending we aren’t a little sad to leave this world behind. Did Stranger Things finish strong? Did it give the Party the ending they deserved? And where does the whole series land now that the Upside Down is (finally) behind us? Light the Christmas lights one more time and join Normies Like Us as we say goodbye to Hawkins. 🎬✨ Leggo my Eggo.
