    Nowadays the movie industry is filled with reboots, sequels, and recycled plots, as most studios just look for a way to make a quick buck. As a result, more unique, meaningful stories that really add something to the world are left by the wayside. This might lead some people to wonder, is...

  8. Episode 6: Harry Potter and JK Rowling's Additions

    The final Harry Potter might have been released way back in 2007, but that hasn't stopped JK Rowling from continuing to add onto it, sometimes in rather strange ways. From Fantastic Beasts to...past wizard's bathroom habits, she just can't seem to stop finding new things to keep the series...

  9. Episode Five: Agents of SHIELD Discussion

  12. Episode 2: Disney's Star Wars

    Ever since The Force Awakens came out in 2015, Zach and Emma have had mixed feelings about Disney's take on Star Wars. It just hasn't panned out well, and The Last Jedi made things even worse.
