In preparation for this week's release of Marvel's Black Panther we take a look at Ryan Coogler's Creed, a sports movie that made both of us uber nerds feel a lot of things.What do the negative reviews for this film represent? Why does this film remind us so much of the current Star Wars trilogy? And how did we go this whole description without one boxing pun?

Surprise! There's a new Cloverfield movie! In honor of the spontaneous debut of 'The Cloverfield Paradox', which went up on Netflix following last night's Super Bowl, Jenna and Chris are here to record a very spontaneous episode. The movie is almost too fresh for us to get an overall critical consensus, but we're here to talk about the immediate - and polarizing - reaction this movie has gotten so far.(SPOILERS, obviously.)How does this one-of-a-kind release strategy impact the Cloverfield franchise - and the film industry as a whole? Do the unsolved questions in this movie really matter? Just how tall is Elizabeth Debicki?

Jenna and Chris dive into a film filled with magic, twins and Daniel Radcliffe being mentored by an old Brit. No, this isn't Harry Potter. Instead we are rounding out #DanielRadcliffeMonth with 2016's "Now You See Me 2". How long is too long for a card trick? How does Chris really feel about Dave Franco?

To continue our spontaneous #DanielRadcliffeMonth, Jenna and Chris look at “Swiss Army Man”, a movie that’s a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside a lot of fart jokes.

The new year is all about trying new things, so Jenna and Chris decided to dive into a new genre - the rom com. The first one on the list? Daniel Radcliffe / Zoe Kazan's “What If” from 2014.What do we like and not like about the rom com genre? Is this movie really as “millennial” as the reviews make it out to be?

2017 is coming to a close, and what better way for Jenna and Chris to celebrate it (or rather, torture themselves) than by watching Netflix's newest original movie, 'Bright'.Just how bad is this movie's attempt at a racial allegory? What does this movie say about Netflix's place in the pop culture landscape?

The behemoth that is Disney just bought Fox. From the MCU, David Fincher and Boss Baby this deal effects the entire film industry. Jenna and Chris are here to break down as many facets of the deal they can. Will Marvel keep making films like 'Deadpool' and 'Logan'? How will Disney manage new IPs like 'Alien'?

‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’ is almost here, and Jenna and Chris are preparing by doing a rapid-fire look at the ‘Star Wars’ movies that came before it (and particularly, how they are currently scored on Rotten Tomatoes).

After years of anticipation, and months of hyping it on this podcast, 'Justice League' is finally here. Jenna and Chris are here to do a deep (and spoilery) dive into it. (Seriously, we give a lot of spoilers. Please go see and support this movie beforehand.)Are the constant comparisons to Whedon's 'Avengers' movies valid?

It's not really a comic book movie, not really a sci-fi movie, and probably not really good.How is this movie ripping off a million things at once?
