Brian Had To Pee!

Join Brian & David as they pontificate on geek culture permeation into everyday life, Halloween Horror Nights, theme parks, the impending Disney/Fox merger, & a Russo Brothers 'Secret Wars' tease.

Plus, DCEU vs. MCU universe building, a brief discussion on Image comics properties moving to small & large screens, Steven Spielberg's comments on Netflix movies, and Netflix as an industry disruptor.

Additionally, we finally get around to reviewing 'Justice League', try to figure out if we're excited about 'Ready Player One', and the MoviePass experiment.

Because geek is here to stay, traditional & streaming studios are snatching up comics properties like hotcakes! What do you want to see on your screens?
