Episode 424: Not my Monkeys, Not My Circus
July 1st, 2026 | 1 hr 25 mins
Joker, Microsoft, Netflix, Playstation, Sony, Star Wars, TV, Xbox, absolute batman, arkane, blade, bungie, dcu, destiny 2, disney, esa, far cry, gaming, geek, gta 6, gta vi, hasbro, hbo, hbo max, io interactive, james gunn, jesse eisenberg, lizzy kaplan, marathon, minecraft, mojang, movies, nerd, nintendo, nintendo switch, nintendo switch 2, peppa pig, persona, physical media, pixar, playstation 5, quantic dream, ratatouille, sie, sony interactive entertainment, supergirl, tekken, the social network, the sopranos, ubisoft, undead labs, video games, xbox series x
Supergirl or Super girl? We have a full review of Supergirl, does it deserve all the hate? Xbox just unleashed a culling, and really they need to squash the rumors, and stop raising prices. Physical media is king, and we just multiple reasons for that, as the finger can be pointed purely at Sony.

Episode 421: By the Power of Grayskull

007 first light, 21 jump street, God of War, Halo, House, Lucasfilm, Netflix, Nintendo Direct, Resident Evil, Star Wars, TV, The Legend of Zelda, Xbox, amazon games, asha, crazy taxi, desitny 2, devil may cry, disney+, gaming, gears of war, gears of war e-day, geek, god of war laufey, he-man, hugh laurie, ign live, io interactive, jason momoa, kojima, marjane satrapi, masters of the universe, moon studios, movies, nerd, nina theory, ocarina of time, sccoby-doo, skeletor, steam machine, summer games fest, super mario galaxy movie, the acolyte, the legend of zelda ocarina of time, the odyssey, ubisoft, video games, xbox game pass, xbox games showcase
Did He-Man come out a few decades too late? I liked the movie, but does it have the power? Summer Games Fest hit Friday afternoon with a bang, Xbox brought the lancer, and immediately stepped on a rake. Meanwhile Nintendo finally revealed the game everyone knew about, as the Ocarina of time returns. Plus a new 21 Jump street is coming, but why the skip to 24?

Episode 420: To be Phranque...
June 3rd, 2026 | 57 mins 56 secs

God of War Returns, and Wolverine is set for September. But so is every other game apparently. So while we all wait for GTA VI, we can now also wait even longer for Fable. Steam may have been hiding in plain sight as a villain all along, we now look to Lord Gaben for guidance. Spider-Noir is more Groucho than Cagney, but it might work in its favor. And Call of Duty is bringing us to East Asia.

Star Trek has found its new Bones and Sulu, yet we have to wait a while before we actually see them. The video game industry lost a true legend, and we salute everything Vince Zampella brought us. Marvel goes back to what it knows for Doomsday, and Macauly decides what is and isn't a Christmas Movie. Plus we may have to wait a little longer for 007's video game return.

Two wildly different movie reviews this week with Caught Stealing, and The Thursday Murder Club and boy are they wildly different movies as well. Plus James Gunn announces a Superman sequel, Amazon gives us our new Laura Croft, and Call of Duty is headed to the big screen. Also, Prefect Dark wasn't as dead as we thought, well, it is now, Konami made an interesting choice for Metal Gears return. That and more.

Its that magical time of year, when all the games are announced, and the big 3 come together! I'm talking about, wait, no, E3 is gone, but its spirit lives on, in this disjointed days of virtual press conferences. Xbox had their Games Showcase and didn't show any of the tentpoles, Summer Games Fest knocked it out of the park with Resident Evil 9, and IGN Live tried to fill in some gaps. Plus, The Phoenician Scheme, Predator Killer of Killers, and Ballerina from the World of John Wick all get reviewed.

June 4th, 2025 | 1 hr 16 mins
007, Bethesda, EA, Hulu, MCU, Michael Bay, Netflix, Playstation, Ryan Reynolds, Star Wars, TV, The Witcher, Xbox, activision, andor, arc system works, call of duty, call of duty black ops 6, capcom, captain america, captain america brave new world, cd projekt red, cyberpunk 2077, d&d, dcu, disney+, doctor who, epic games, fantastic 4, galactus, gaming, geek, hagrid, happy gilmore, harry potter, hbo, io interactive, james bond, james gunn, king of the hill, knives out, lilo & stich, luke skywalker, mark hamill, marvel games, marvel studios, mission impossible, mortal kombat, movies, nerd, netflix tudum, nick frost, nintendo, nintendo switch 2, peacemaker, people can fly, pokémon, pokémon scarlet, pokémon violet, pragmata, red hulk, sinners, snyderverse, sony state of play, splinter cell, squid game, stig asmussen, stranger things, superman, the witcher 4, ubisoft, unreal, unreal engine, video games, vision quest, warnerbros, xbox handheld, zenimax, zynga
Guess what, there's another reason to question the existence of the PS5 Pro! The Sony Sate of Play was pretty solid today, and its mainly due to the James Bond game trailer. Microsoft pushes back its handheld plans, Nintendo keeps it close to the vest, and Activision has a blunder. Plus Netflix has its Tudum, Mark Hamill shares his future, and thank god we don't live in the Michael Bay Superman Timeline. Plus my review of Mission Impossible The Final Reckoning.

Disney announces release dates for Lilo & Stich and Freakier Friday, meanwhile Joker 2 has one of the worst second weekends at the box office. That plus a review of Saturday Night.
