It's been an incredible run and this podcast has introduced us to so many wonderful people! To celebrate our last episode ever, we decided to just talk about movies. Any and all movies. Westerns, sci-fi's, Whiplash, Adam McKay, and everything in between. A special shoutout to everybody who has listened to one episode or all of them, without your support and love, this podcast would not have been possible. Remember, go watch some movies!

So of course we gave it our best shot. Some absolute predictable choices ensure (*cough* Ethan *cough*) as well as some deep cuts! PLUS Andrew Garfield is the trailer king right now. No big deal. So we talk about his many trailers that just got released! Who are your top 5 actors/actresses?

What movie is ACTUALLY his best one and why all the Biblical allegories? We sit down with friend of the show Matt Scott to answer these questions and more. Ethan hates mother!. Austin defends The Fountain. And Matt Scott is still depressed from rewatching Requiem for a Dream. What's your Final Take on Darren Aronofsky? Let us know on Twitter!

Does the sequel really stack up against the first movie? Is there maybe even room for a third? We answer all of those questions and everything in between in our SPOILER FILLED review. We also share some sad news that the podcast will be ending... have a topic you want us to cover in the final episodes? Let us know!

We review the movie with full spoilers and toss out some SERIOUS theories for the movie!! Could they really all be stuck in a time loop? Are the zombies actually a type of alien from Area 51? What does the ending mean? We break it all down and give our thoughts! PLUS Knives Out 2 cast just keeps on growing... who do we think the killer will be now?

And not just any movie theater... a Regal movie theater. And we saw Spiral. And our lives were changed! Well not really, but still, you get the idea. We give our spoiler-filled review of the latest installation in the Saw franchise, including all of the gruesome torture traps, plot twists, and everything in between. Plus we talk about how absolutely stacked the Knives Out 2 trailer is, who we think the killer will be, and the new Venom trailer. Because that's an interesting trailer...

Austin LOVES 90's comedies. What better way to get on our soapboxes and talk about Adam Sandler for an entire episode? We break down all of Sandler's best (and worst) movies, why he doesn't get any credit for his serious roles, and what the future looks like for him. PLUS we talk about the final trailer to A Quiet Place Part 2, the teaser trailer for Stranger Things, and Ethan tries to figure out what kind of pie Austin likes...

Happy May The Fourth once again! This year we decided to ask a TON of Star Wars questions to each other and see what our answers were. We are talking things like... who should've played Anakin Skywalker instead of Hayden Christianson? What color lightsaber would you have? And is the Prequel trilogy really the most cohesive trilogy of them all? Plus things get a little weirdddd when Austin asks a NSFW question about droids... just sayin! Have any Star Wars thoughts?
