Just Another Friday Night

“Rebellions are built on hope.” And after seeing the series finale we know they’re also built on the back of Luthen Rael, and Kleya Marki, and Lonni Jung and of course Mon Mothma and Cassian Andor. This season was damn near perfect gang and it just got better as it went along! It’s getting the critical acclaim and it’s getting the fans acclaim. Tony Gilroy delivered a masterpiece and the worthy predecessor to Rogue One. It breaks o...

Andor IS back! The latest from Disney+ and Star Wars is the highly anticipated follow up season to the critically acclaimed original. Disney+ has told us that this is the final season of Andor and it makes sense as we are roughly 4 years out from the events of the Battle of Yavin. The Battle of Yavin refers to the events at the end of Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. We also know that Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is a direct lead ...

The Devil is Alive! The Devil of Hells Kitchen that is and he’s bringing his rowdy friends to Friday Night!! Pegged by some to be a slower, more paced version than the Netflix series, Disney+ and Born Again found closed this one out strong! Jon Bernthal returns as The Punisher and Charlie Coxs’ Matt Murdock and Vincent D’onofrio’s Wilson Fisk seemingly give to their battle with duality. The audience are the winners as Daredevil and...

On April 1 we lost American acting icon, Val Kilmer. We grew up watching him and to Us he’s one of the best to ever do it. He truly left his mark on film and he’s one we won’t ever forget. Roles like Doc Holliday, Jim Morrison, Iceman - are just a few of the iconic characters Kilmer came to embody. There are so many other roles to talk about though. Tonight, we want to celebrate the life and career of a man who lived his dream to t...

Mark, Oliver, Debbie, and Nolan are all growing up Grayson! As season 3 kicks off with its usual bang we’re eager to see some continuing themes and hopefully answers to questions!

At the time of this recording, we don’t have all these answers, but we do have some episodes to discuss! We’re starting ...

Cap is back! With Anthony Mackie taking up the shield for his first time leading his own Marvel feature film. Joining him is megastar Harrison Ford taking over the role of Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross for William Hurt. Hurt who sadly passed away in 2022 left a hole in the MCU as the government heavy. Mackie has a big shield to tout as one of the Avengers big 3 and their leader. In addition, Chris Evans portrayal of Steve Rogers is a...

The Netflix smash hit SQUID GAME returns for their much anticipated second season! Last season introduced us to Seong Gi-Hun played by Lee Jung-jae. While we didn’t cover season 1 it wasn’t for lack of trying and we will do our best to recap before we get into season 2. Originating in South Korea and with a primarily South Korean cast Squid is this generations answer to the Hunger Games and The Running Man! A ton of fun to watch w...

It’s been a 3 week hiatus but we’re back and ready to talk the final arc of Oswald Cobb in season 1 of the HBO Max powerhouse - The Penguin! Now if you’d have told us a year ago that we’d be hype for a damn Penguin series we’d have called you liars. But the power of really strong writing prevails! Coupled with masterful performances from Colin Farrell, Cristin Milioti, Rhenzy Feliz, and Deirdre O’ Connell - The Penguin has seeming...

Burgess Meredith, Danny DeVito, and now Colin Farrell. Each of these men has been The Penguin from Batmans' rogues' gallery but though he hasn’t donned the top hat and monocle - Farrell may be delivering the definitive portrayal of the character. First seen in Matt Reeves 2022 The Batman - Farrell was easily the standout as Penguin. Now we head back to the Iceberg Lounge with Oz in Max’s newest series - The Penguin. Now unless you...
