Congratulations, America: You are finally done with the "X-Men" movies. OK, not really, but "Dark Phoenix" is a lackluster end to a once-excellent franchise. We discuss. We also get into Mindy Kaling's "Late Night." (We're split on that one.)
Grierson solos on "The Last Black Man in San Francisco," and then, in our Reboot segment, we check out the 2008 pseudo-zombie Canadian thriller "Pontypool."
Timestamps (approximate):
8:00 "Dark Phoenix"
23:50 "Late Night"
44:15 "The Last Black Man in San Francisco"
50:00 "Pontypool"
Thanks to Dylan Mayer and My Friend Mary, both of which are wonderful, for the music.
We hope you enjoy. Let us know what you think @griersonleitch on Twitter, or griersonleitch@gmail.com. As always, give us a review on iTunes with the name of a movie you'd like us to review, and we'll discuss it on a later podcast.
