After a week off, Our Heroes are back to discuss some random junk. Justin has a second job, Ruby Rose takes harassment over her Batwoman casting, Daredevil is coming back for a third season. Justin reviews "The Meg" and announces a contest. Other stuff. It's just the same old story here on 2 Broke Geeks.
In this episode Matt is pretty sick and way out of it and it kind of shows. Also, Justin isn't in the best of moods, either. And nothing interesting happened since the last episode. Why did we even record this? The world may never know.
Our heroes meander through what little has happened in geekdom lately, starting with the latest trailer for "Venom", then moving on to some things of a more business-y nature with the Disney/Fox merger and the cast of "Guardians of the Galaxy" openly backing James Gunn. Matt loves the idea of a movie or TV series based entirely on the day after "The Purge". Justin watched the latest "Godzilla" anime film on Netflix.
Oooooh man! San Diego Comic Con 2018 just ended and there's so much to talk about! Comics! Toys! Trailers! Oh my! On the docket: NECA's upcoming releases, "Three Jokers", "Star Wars: The Clones Wars", "Titans", "Young Justice", "Shazam", "Godzilla: King of the Monsters", "Aquaman" and so much more!
The best part of best buds is they can always find something to talk about, even on slow weeks. This week begins with talking about "Impractical Jokers" punishments and ends with a talk about regular life. In between our heroes talk about their creation: the villain "Swamp Ass", "Ant-Man and The Wasp", Billy Dee Williams, "Sharp Objects" and more!
The Geeks go against stereotype this week by not really hating anything (except the new "Jurassic World" movie.) We talk about the season finale of "Westworld", "Luke Cage" season 2, "GLOW" season 2, the aforementioned "Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom", "The First Purge" and some other goodies!
Kind of a slow week, but we power on through just for you! Westworld, Luke Cage, Funko, Matt's trip to a new geek store, emo kids with first-world problems, other stuff.
Justin saw "The Incredibles 2", the LAPD is investigating possible elder abuse of Stan Lee, Matt gets serious about Chloe Dykstra's abuse allegation against Chris Hardwick, The Geeks talk about some of their favorite under-utilized actors.
So much happened! Halloween trailer, Justin saw "Hereditary", news out of E3, a very awful vocal minority of Star Wars fans get on our nerves, Westworld recaps and so much more!
Matt got dive bombed by birds and introduced Justin to Mr. Methane. Justin saw "Solo: A Star Wars Story" and "Upgrade." Other things. I don't know what. We recorded this Sunday. You expect me to remember Sunday?
What was there even to talk about this past week? Not much! But we manage. Comics talk, Solo opening weekend, etc. etc.
We kick things off with a discussion about "Deadpool 2" before we move on to the idea of Jake Gyllenhaal as Mysterio in the sequel to "Spider-Man: Homecoming", a few rando topics and finish off strong with a discussion of "Westworld" season 2 to this point.
Justin's back in his hometown and he and Matt have a geeky, sexy adventure and record in a car, classic 2BG style! What do our heroes talk about? Oh, only EVERYTHING!
Ten years in the making, "Avengers: Infinity War" has finally arrived and BOY do our heroes have some thoughts! SO MANY THOUGHTS!
Here's the deal, I am writing this description and I can't remember a damn thing we talked about. I mean, we talked about it on Sunday! It's Tuesday now! You can't honestly expect me to remember all the way back to Sunday! I usually prep these sooner so I can remember, but Sunday evening and Monday were busy, okay? Jeez!
Justin went to Monsterpalooza and Matt went to Montreal Toy Con. Fun was had, money was spent. Matt has something to give away to listeners. The new "Lost in Space" debuted on Netflix and both The Geeks have watched a bit of it.
After last week's lost episode, Our Heroes take another stab at episode 131. Justin saw three movies this week. Matt watched one and is working his way through any Marvel comic with "Infinity" in the title. Norman Osbourne has a symbiote now! And, now we know that Marissa Tomei thought up The Purge, which is scary...but also kinda sexy.
Justin tells tales of going to Wonder Con, seeing cool cosplays, talking with great comic creators and buying neat stuff! Matt...well...he's overworked. He (you guessed it) watched "The X-Files" some more and also revisited "The Avengers" for the first time in a long time. Also on this episode: some "Ready Player One" talk, some talk about revisiting comics that might inspire "Avengers: Infinity War" and more.
Justin saw two movies, Matt played a board game. Toys R Us is going out, but K.B. Toys may be on the way back in. Matt explains an X-Files episode. Talk about the new "Infinity War" trailer and what we think might happen in the movie.
Ninja Sex Party has a new single, Kristen Wiig is Cheetah, this show MIGHT be part of Ready Player One (unless Justin says it's not), Toys R Us is possibly closing and much much more!
It's still the REALLY slow time of the year for news and reviews, so our heroes do some random talk about random things, then give away prizes.
No regular episode this week, but Matt and Justin have been discussing some things behind the scenes and Matt tells you a bit about them.
The Geeks had the great pleasure of appearing on a podcast that, oddly enough, they inspired: Thors-Kin. Or does Thors-Kin appear on THIS show? Either way, there's a whole lot of talk about "Black Panther"!
The Superbowl happened and, as is the yearly custom, the best part was all the trailers we got for geeky stuff! (Booooooo football!) We talk about the trailers for Westworld, Jessica Jones, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, Solo: A Star Wars Story and Venom! Also, a brand new trailer came out for Kingdom Hearts 3! All that and more!
A heaping helping of our usual stuff plus: sports fans are nerds, we want 2018 to be the year we get interesting guests, we're having a contest, and Matt kinda wants to go to prison to have free time to read (but he knows he might have to do something drastic to stay safe.)
The Geeks watched the new animated Godzilla film, "Godzilla: Planet of Monsters", talk a little bit of toy stuff, and get on to comics before Matt's internet implodes and doesn't come back. We suspect Godzilla did it! But at least we got SOMETHING done!
Justin has all the notes about news and rumors because Matt's been working so much overtime he can't keep anything straight. Discussed in this episode: the upcoming Godzilla animated movie on Netflix, a rumored new Batman video game, upcoming 2018 video games, release dates getting shuffled and more.
In many ways, 2017 was a dumpster fire, but a lot of good geek stuff happened and we wanna talk about it! Also, some great geek stuff is coming in 2018 and we wanna talk about that, too! Oh, and Matt apparently needs a new mic so please forgive the weird static-y sounds.
"Star Wars: The Last Jedi" is finally here and that's the bulk of what this episode is about. There's some more stuff talked about toward the end, but Matt can't remember what it is and he's the one writing this description.
The geeky stuff is taken care of early: animated Spider-Man trailer, Jessica Jones S2 trailer, Black Mirror S4 look-ahead, Justin's viewing of "Happy" and some South Park talk. Then it's on to the single most insane thing either of the Geeks has ever witnessed as Justin tells Matt all about the craziest play ever.
