Airdate: July 31, 2024 Original Airdate: December 1, 2021 In honor of Wolverine & Deadpool hitting theaters, we decided to reair one of our favorite Ryan Reynolds films. Free Guy tells the story of Guy, a NPC in a violent open world game. We dive into the servers to see if Free Guy was worth the download. Note: Sheila is not a gamer. Kimberly is and games will be discussed during this review. This film was on her radar since the original trailer. ***Spoiler Warning***

Airdate: July 17, 2024 Wolverine & Deadpool hits theaters later this month. In honor of that release, we had to sit down and watch the Wolverine film fans rave about - Logan. It might have released in 2017, but the heart, themes and action scenes still resonate today. ***Spoiler Warning***

| 113: ATLAS: A Mech Suit, Bad AI & Green Screen Walk Into a Bar... | 05 Jun 2024 | 00:32:22 | |
Airdate: June 5, 2024 Atlas Shepherd watched her mother's creation Harlan, an AI, start a war that caused the demise of millions. That trauma led her down a dark path of distrust and overwhelming guilt. Almost entirely shown from Atlas's perspective from a Mech... err Arcsuit - was the film worthy of the poor scores online or just a misunderstood film ahead of its time? ***Spoiler Warning***

| 112: Killing Eve S4: We Deserved Better Reair | 22 May 2024 | 00:32:17 | |
Airdate: May 22, 2024 Original Airdate: May 4, 2022 With Station 19 ending after 7 seasons and NCIS: Hawaii's cancellation without a proper ending, it seemed like the right time to bring back this episode. After years of will they won't they, the final season of Killing Eve hit the small screen in 2022. At the end of the season, we felt this podcast episode needed a different approach. We dig into the themes throughout season 4 and the controversial ending. **This podcast episode covers several topics that might be uncomfortable for some.** **Spoiler Warning**

| 111: The Fall Guy: Engage Your Core | 08 May 2024 | 00:26:24 | |
Airdate: May 8, 2024 The summer movie season launches with The Fall Guy, starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt. This film is a love letter to stunt performers with amazing action sequences that include a new Guinness World Record. But without those scenes, does the script hold up? We saw an early screening of The Fall Guy and think everyone should take a leap of faith on this film. ***Spoiler Warning***

| 110: Rebel Moon Pt 2 The Scargiver: Secrets Are Spilled | 24 Apr 2024 | 00:32:26 | |
EPISODE #110: REBEL MOON PART TWO THE SCARGIVER (2024) REVIEW Airdate: April 24, 2024 Rebel Moon returns with the return Kora & her team to defend the small farming moon. The previous film ended with a sense of peace, but we all know this was the calm before the storm. We have so many questions, but will we get answers? Did the princess survive hidden somewhere across the galaxy? Why was Kora on the run? Fingers crossed part two sheds light on everything. ***Spoiler Warning***

| 109: Rebel Moon Pt 1 A Child of Fire: Make Up Your Own Mind | 10 Apr 2024 | 00:31:59 | |
Airdate: April 10, 2024 Rebel Moon Part One launched on Netflix last December. With mediocre, to downright horrible reviews, we were hesitant to sit down for the two-hour installment. While the story of the oppressed raising an army to fight against tyranny isn't new, the way it's delivered usually makes it stand out. But did Rebel Moon deliver or fall flat? ***Spoiler Warning***

| 108: Ghostbusters: Afterlife: Should You Still Call? | 27 Mar 2024 | 00:31:09 | |
Airdate: March 27, 2024 The Ghostbusters are back! The newest release, Frozen Empire, is currently in the theaters. So, we're tackling the 2021 movie Ghostbusters: Afterlife that fans raved was the sequel they asked for. Considering the 2016 female led film was regarded negatively, we wanted to see what set Afterlife apart from the other attempt to relaunch the franchise. ***Spoiler Warning***

| 107: A League of Their Own S1: The Truth Will Set You Free (Reair) | 13 Mar 2024 | 00:38:18 | |
Airdate: March 13, 2024 Original Airdate: September 7, 2022 Tubi announced a Wynonna Earp movie. Warrior Nun has been saved as a movie trilogy. We wanted to shine a light on another show that was renewed, but then Amazon dropped it without a second thought. We covered A League of Their Own in 2022. The series has become a cult hit and showcased diverse representation. Because of this, we felt it would be a good time to re-air that recording. ***Spoiler Warning***

| 105: Madame Web: A Misshapen Labyrinth of Studio Mess | 28 Feb 2024 | 00:35:08 | |
Airdate: February 28, 2024 Madame Web had the potential to connect all the spider-verse movies together. It could have used the name talent and propel forward a well thought out story. While some feel the film is horrific, we disagree. The web set up was perfectly symmetrical in its beauty... and Sony smashed it. ***Spoiler Warning***

| 104: Argylle: Secret Agent Kitty | 14 Feb 2024 | 00:33:34 | |
Airdate: February 14, 2024 Argylle, a handsome James Bond-esque spy, is a fictional character in Elly Conway's novels of the same name. Right? Dallas Bryce Howard, as Elly, leads the audience on a ride with twists, turns & cat flying stunts - all to find the truth. But are the answers something everyone will accept? We saw the film opening weekend, but will we see eye to eye on our rating? The answer might surprise you. ***Spoiler Warning***

| 103: Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Original Film Slayer | 31 Jan 2024 | 00:29:03 | |
Airdate: January 31, 2024 Buffy the Vampire Slayer was a cult classic television show that broke barriers and laid the groundwork for many other projects. But it started with a campy film in 1992. In this Nostalgia vs Novelty episode, Sheila gets to see the film Kimberly has referenced repeatedly throughout their relationship. **Spoiler Warning** | |||
| 102: Warrior Nun S2: Adrial’s Risen & the Portal’s Open (Reair) | 17 Jan 2024 | 00:36:58 | |
Airdate: January 17, 2024 Original Airdate: January 11, 2023 Warrior Nun returns to answer several questions from the season one cliffhanger.

We delve into these questions and the darker side of streaming... cancellations with no transparency. **Spoiler Warning**

| 100: Leave the World Behind & Avoid Unmanned Teslas | 20 Dec 2023 | 00:34:43 | |
Airdate: December 20, 2023 Leave the World Behind has an A-list cast, help from the Obamas & amazing source material in the original novel. An apocalyptic thriller that leaves heavily into the emotional and psychological rather than violent uprisings, the film should be a must see. But at 2 hours and 21 minutes, maybe the animals were right. There's something bad on the horizon when you click play. **Spoiler Warning**
| |||
| 099: The Hunger Games: The Ballad of a Really Long Movie | 06 Dec 2023 | 00:32:15 | |
Airdate: December 6, 2023 The Hunger Games original trilogy gave fans Katniss Everdeen as a powerful heroine against a formidable villain, President Snow. Lionsgate has given us a prequel, The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes to give the evil man his backstory. Snow always falls on top, but don't worry - we have a snowblower. **Spoiler Warning**

Airdate: November 9, 2023 Original Airdate: April 26, 2020 Having covered Juliet Landau's feature film A Place Among the Dead & the release of Slayers: A Buffyverse Story - it seemed like a great time to flashback to one of the most viewed episodes of Forever Fangirls: Buffy & the Shot Felt Round the World (Ep. 003).

All you have to do, is tune in. **Spoiler Warning** *Note* It is mentioned that this is Juliet Landau's directorial debut. It is her FEATURE FILM directorial debut as she has directed other projects.

With clues from beyond the grave, can Poirot discover the living murderer or have the ghosts claimed a new victim? **Spoiler Warning**

Airdate: September 20, 2023 Beetlejuice hit the screens in 1988. In another Nostalgia -vs- Novelty episode, our hosts discuss how viewing the ghost with the most for the first time compared to seeing it after many years. Do the hosts Jump in the Line to dance with joy or did they call for an exorcist? No matter what, do not say his name three times. **Spoiler Warning**
| |||
| 093: Elemental: Opposites Attract | 06 Sep 2023 | 00:31:22 | |
Airdate: September 6, 2023 Elemental's trailer states "elements don't mix." But the film shows that air, water and earth blend just fine. Why is fire on the outskirts looking in? Does the film have a classic Pixar/Disney moral to the story that lands or falls flat? Forever Fangirls saw the film in theaters, but it launches on Disney+ September 2023. **Spoiler Warning**
| |||
| 092: Strays: Who Let The Dogs Out? | 23 Aug 2023 | 00:23:40 | |

Airdate: June 28, 2023 Haunted Mansion comes to the big screen... again. Does it scare up enough nostalgia from the parks and a story that made it worth seeing? July seemed like an odd release date, as we expected something closer to Halloween. We hit the theaters (instead of doom buggies) to see what the ghostly appeal of the film has. **Spoiler Warning**

| 090: Barbie: Truth & Birkenstocks | 26 Jul 2023 | 00:32:39 | |
Airdate: July 25, 2023 Barbie comes to life in this live action comedy with deeper meanings and unexpected twists. With a powerful cast, director and writers, does it hit big or should we package it up for a return? **Spoiler Warning**

Airdate: June 28, 2023 The Goonies gave us one of the most iconic line of the decade "Goonies Never Say Die."
