Join us (Matt Fisher and Matt Sparrock) as we watch and discuss a variety of film franchises, from popular blockbusters to cult favorites and hidden gems. we will also take a break in between film series to watch and review movies that had potential to become a franchise and discuss whether they either deserve to become bigger properties or remain one-and-done movies. Tune in to the ”The Franchise Connection” as we see how and why some Franchises succeed and others stumble with their direction or lose it in the process.
