Episode 405: The San Diego Freeway Cast
February 18th, 2026 | 1 hr 11 mins
AI, Bethesda, Castlevania, DC comics, God of War, Lucasfilm, MCU, Netflix, Phil Spencer, Playstation, Resident Evil, Scooby Doo, Spider-Man, Star Wars, TV, amazon prime video, angry birds, avengers doomsday, black ops 7, call of duty warzone, chris hemsworth, daniel radcliffe, dice awards, gaming, geek, hideo kojima, infinity ward, john wick, k-pop demon hunters, karl urban, marathon, metal gear solid, mgm+, movies, nerd, nintendo, paramount, pokemon, ps5, respawn entertainement, robert duvall, rovio, russo bros, sega, sonic the hedgehog, sony playstation, spider-noir, star wars galactic racer, steam, steam deck, tencent, the avengers, the boys, the dark knight rises, the elder scrolls, the mandalorian and grogu, the simpsons, thor, todd howard, ubisoft, valve, video games, vince zampella, warner brothers, wuthering heights
A week after the Super Bowl and we finally got The Mandalorian and Grogu trailer, took long enough. Also Warner Bros seems to finally relent and gives Paramount 7 days to try again. If the Simpsons ever ends, which is probably more likely than you think, it wont spend time on a grand finale. PlayStation held a state of play last week, and it was heavy on Kratos, plus if you are waiting on a steam deck, blame AI.

One Battle After Another, is what I should rename this podcast, because the movie was that good, and a full review is inside. Plus Xbox takes another self imposed L, Sony gives itself a gold medal, and EA goes private. The Simpsons are headed back to the big screen, and an AI "actress" has Hollywood in a fervor. Plus Forza Horizon is finally headed to the land of the Rising Sun, and Ubisoft gives Assassin's Creed a new home.

Vin Diesel announces the plan for Fast X part 2, and there's major concerns. Matt Reeves finally finishes the Script for The Batman sequel, and James Gunn gives us who is playing Jor El.
