"Annihilation": Films of 2018

This week, the boys grab a few beers and head back to 2018 to catch up on what was happening the year “Annihilation” came out, before diving into a discussion about re-watching Alex Garland’s follow-up to his 2015 hit “Ex Machina”. Dave owns the film, John has seen it 3 or 4 times but the time lines get blurred (movie reference), and Jeff hasn’t gone back since his shimmery experience in the cinema summer 2018. What did we think? We have to keep it positive.
