Jul 04, 2022•3 hr 37 min•Transcript available on Metacast The concept of Thor always worked wonders within the pages of a Marvel comic or in Norse Mythology or in a 1988 Incredible Hulk telemovie but translating it to the big screen would prove to be a massive gamble. Directed by Kenneth Branagh and released in 2011, Thor Just Thor managed to rope in a terrific cast including Chris Hemsworth in the title role, Tom Hiddleston as Loki, Natalie Portman as Jane Foster, Anthony Hopkins as Odin, Rene Russo as Frigga and more.

Jun 27, 2022•1 hr 10 min•Transcript available on Metacast WOW. Our journey through the Star Wars Prequels continues with what is somehow considered the worst one. Acting as an introduction to a new animated series George Lucas requested the smooshing together of four episodes and making this whole thing a cinematic release. Aiming to expand on the very much skipped over Clone Wars we briefly saw in Attack Of The Clones and Revenge Of The Sith it ended up being an incredible piece of storytelling mixing action and character development in ways we don't ...

Jun 19, 2022•1 hr 28 min•Transcript available on Metacast Jurassic Park III marked the end of the franchise for well over a decade. But boy did it attempt to go out with a bang with the return of both Sam Neil as Alan Grant and Laura Dern briefly as Ellie Sattler.

Jun 06, 2022•1 hr 22 min•Transcript available on Metacast 1993's Jurassic Park was an incredible cinematic experience both for the time and now. Combining the best of old school monster movie making with cutting edge CGI and blending those elements with a compelling narrative and characters it's considered one of Steven Spielberg's best and also one of the great blockbusters of all time. Mason doesn't really like it though. Anyways thanks for watching out Caravan Of Garbage review. SUBSCRIBE HERE ►► http://goo.gl/pQ39jN Video Edition ► https://youtu.be...

Mar 14, 2022•1 hr 14 min•Transcript available on Metacast We're kicking off this new batch of Caravan Of Garbage which we're going to refer to as the DC Graveyard. A failed batch of comic book propeties that were set to kick of a franchise or at the very least a sequel that ended up bombing either critically, commercially or both. First up is Catwoman 2004 an abysmal effort despite the best efforts of one Halle Berry. How did this happen? Who's the say. But it did and it's extremely baffling scene to scene.
