Crime. Crime never sleeps, it also never tips or thanks the chef. Crime is a heartless son of bitch that saps the goodwill from humanity and sells it for crack and hookers. Lucky for us Police Squad will protect us from crime. Again! And then maybe one more time then about 30 years later. We talk about our favorite jokes and why we think the newest movie will do well.
After a month and a half break, 3BG is back...with a lot of stress. We decompress about the current climate in America and get into our movie of the week. The underrated Denzel classic, Ricochet. A movie full of petty revenge, racial overtones, 90's cool and John Lithgow devouring the scenery. Also, we're letting it be known, what our role as black people should be in this country right now.
A story of a soft-spoken stuntman who moonlight as a getaway driver. And he is a damn good getaway driver. We talk about the story, modern noir, stoic protagonist, character actors, "What's truly manly" and Ryan Gosling singing on the Disney Channel.
#UltramanTaiga #Ultraman #TsuPro #Toei #Tokusatsu #KamenRider #SuperSentai #PowerRangers Ultraman Taiga signaled the start of the Reiwa era of Ultraman shows. A sequel to the Ultraman Taro series, we are met with not just one Ultra but 3 Ultras. Fun show overall and Prime and CJ delve into the show and also talk about news around the Toku fandom.
#Superman #JamesGunn #DCcomics #DCstudios #WarnerBros James Gunn's Superman is the type of optimistic movie thats needed. In a period of time where society at large is very cynical all around, we have a movie that is 100% pure wholesome comic book fun. A Superman film that is basically like watching the live action version of the Bruce Timm Superman the Animated Series. This movie keeps you invested from its opening scene all the way to the end of the film. At a brisk 2 hours, you'll come away w...
You know what we need? Unity. We need that in this country...no, around the world. We need that. No better than a story about 4 adopted brothers avenging their white mama that was killed by the local drug lord. You know, the usual in Detroit. We talk about Markie Mark, 2000's Netflix movies, 3Stacks acting, and a bunch of another things not related to this movie.
#Ballerina #JohnWick #KeanuReeves The world of John Wick is ripe full of perfect spinoff material which is the most first world problem to have. Ballerina is one such spinoff that works perfectly because we were already introduced to this world in John Wick 3 due to John's affilation with the Ruska Roma. The character of Eve has a simple plight of revenge and this movie does a phenomenal job of seeing her dish out damage on her revenge tour. More than anything else, this film make you want to se...
#F1 #F1Racing #BradPitt #DamsonIdris F1 is a pure Hollywood sports movie top to bottom. The film gives you enough of a basic understanding of the sport of F1 racing while also serving you the usual Hollywood sports drama and flare. Its worth the watch alone in IMAX cause the racing cinematography is so damn good. Its a must watch.
Attention! Big Boy Caprice is doing gangster shit again! Time for Dick Tracy to save...New York? Mega City? Gotham? Where are we? Anyway, we talk about this absolute gem of a movie. We talk about the great Warren Beatty and Al Pacino.
Back to the damn dino island! Its like the one thing that they keep going to. This damn island. But everything cool and dumb about Jurassic Park happens in this movie. Enjoy us dragging it!
#TomCruise #MissionImpossible #TheFinalReckoning There's something to be said about how Tom Cruise has kept folks engaged through this 8 movie escapades of Ethan Hunt. And The Final Reckoning hits all the vibes of what you expect out of a Mission Impossible movie. It is PEAK Impossible White Man movie and its so damn good and entertaining.
#KamenRiderBlackRX #KamenRider #Toei #Tokusatsu #MaskedRider Kamen Rider Black RX marked the end of the Showa Era rider shows even with respect to Shin, ZO, and J which came later. In many ways, Black RX was an inspiration of what we would get from future Kamen Rider shows starting with Kamen Rider Kuuga. And also it was an actual sequel series to a previous Kamen Rider season which was a big deal and first for the franchise. At any rate, sit back as CJ and Prime talk about Rider greatness....
#TheAccountant2 #BenAffleck #JonBernthal Definitely don't think anyone saw this movie coming. The first film was good enough in its own way that it told a engaging story but you never came away thinking it would manifest into a franchise. But hey, Hollywood is always trying to franchise every movie so here we are with The Accountant 2. Overall its a fine film but its not the type of film you're rushing to the theater to see.
You wanted a get away but instead you have to save Mars from an evil corporation that controls the air! Get your ass to Mars!
#Thunderbolts #MarvelStudios #Marvel #Disney #MarvelComics So post-Endgame, the concensus with folks on the MCU is that its a mixed bag. Way more often than not, the vibes from folks end up being grossly overexagerrated than need be. Thunderbolts since it was first announced at SDCC, was a big question mark for folks based on the characters that were involved especially later on when the casting for Sentry happened. The trepidation from folks was very understandable. So thankfully and shockingly...
The 4th installment and the soft rebooth. But with more action shenanigans and two guys that like each other a whole lot.
#Sinners #RyanCoogler #MichaelBJordan #BlackHorror Sinners is a movie with grand ambitions and Coogler delivers on it top to bottom. While the advertising might give off big tentpole vibes, the reality is that this film fits in the mid-budget range and it works perfectly. This is a movie that isn't trying throw constant action moments in your face. This is a film that builds up to those action beats to where it feels impactful. You truly end up feeling for what happens to these characters and th...
Dee and Cj discuss the modern-day classic "They Cloned Tyrone". A beautiful movie about the hood... AND WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON! LOOK AROUND BLACK CITIES! DC! BMORE! CHITOWN! ATLANTA! NEW ORLEANS! THESE WHITE FOLK PLAYING IN OUR FACES! USING US LIKE LAB RATS! CHARLOTTE! LA! HOUSTON! DADE COUNTY! LOOK! THEY CLONING THE HOOD NIGGAZ! THEY CLONING THE PUSHERS, THE PIMPS, THE PASTORS, SAMBOS AND THE STRIPPERS! NEW YORK! PHILLY! DETROIT! INDY! NORFOLK! AND EVERY HOOD THAT GOT TRAPS! THEY OUT HERE! THEY...
A story about overcoming the odds, training hard, and fighting for more than pride but for love. It's also about watching your World Champion brother be crippled and they leave him to rot on a Bangkok street corner. Yeah, Kickboxer is a wild film that's mainly about Muay Thai. But ignore all that and enjoy the 80's action!
The Spring sports season started with March Madness, and we talk about it's crazy result. We also talk NBA and NHL Playoffs started, Wrestlemania is here and we talk about the NFL Draft. More importantly, we talk about Ove passing The Great One!
Welcome to Desert Storm kids! Out last Heist movie will be the underrated classic, Three Kings. It's full of truth, laughs and wonderful filmmaking.
The title says it all! The geeks talk about the newest Statham movie that's all about kicking in teeth and getting the job done! Like A WORKING MAN!!!
#KamenRider #KamenRiderHibiki #Tokusatsu #Toku Kamen Rider Hibiki stands out amongst the other Kamen Rider shows especially during Heisei Era Rider shows. From the Kamen Rider designs down to the enemies, this show initially stood out as being very unique. But in typical business, the show ended up pivoting into a different direction that was in line with previous rider shows. What you end up with is a show that has two different pathways tonally and a movie that in a way brings the show back in...
3BG are back at full power for this one. In a giant sized episode, the critics talk about a movie special to many blacks. Django Unchained may be the best slave movie of all time. And with that orange guys in the white house right now, this review is very illuminating.
Jordan Greenland aka JG the Traveler is the creator of the Travelers' Frontier Multiverse. This is a fun conversation where we get into the mind of JG and how he formulated this unique take on the multiverse concept. You can find all of Jordan's materials here: https://beacons.ai/travelersfrontier
The Program was the gritty 90's football movie that was breaking many rules of college sport movies. Showing drug use, corruption and high stakes college administrative business! The was also shined a light on subjects the world wasn't fully ready/educated about when it came out. Don't worry, Cj and Dee are to talk about it!
Do The Right Thing is one of the most important films ever made. It is the story of a hot day in Brooklyn that dives into race relations, community love, and just regular people having a regular day. The movie was great then and is still great now.
Many folks had trepidations about this film given the background, thankfully Brave New World is a solid watch. From solidifying Sam Wilson as Captain America with confidence to the Winter Soldier'esque Political thriller vibes, it's a very entertaining watch. It addresses story beats from MCU movies of the past in a way that doesn't deviate from the story it's telling. Definitely see this film. You won't regret it. #CaptainAmericaBraveNewWorld #CaptainAmerica #MCU #Marvel #Disney
Black History Month deserves HIGH Black Cinema. This week it's A Soldier's Story. It's a movie every black military has seen at least once. A film that tackles Racism, Black Self-Hate, Colorism, the treatment of black soldiers in the Jim Crow South, and what it's like to see yourself in a position of power for the first time. This a Black All-Star movie and it isn't talked about enough.
Our first of many reviews of the man, the myth, the legend Jim Varney! Dee and Cj have a fun conversation about this loveable redneck. We talk about the movies, Jim's acting, the shenanigans of the film, how black kids viewed him, and of course, likable white folk.
