We are BACK with our annual holiday special! Yes, that's right. In 2020, we decided we were going to make our Scott Pilgrim reviews a Christmas tradition. So here we are, with vol 5 in the series, Scott Pilgrim: Scott Pilgrim vs The Universe . And we are once again joined by our PCP Bad Batch brother in arms, Rockin' Robbie Billups !   Tracklist: 0:29 - Intro with Rockin' Robbie of Pop Culture Phi...

And thus concludes our 2024 season of "normal" Geeks Unleashed episodes! What a fun, witchy run we've had the past several weeks. We wrap it all up with a surprise favorite from recent TV as we cover the entire Agatha All Along series. With this direct sequel to WandaVision and notes from the fallout of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness , where does this latest Marvel Television series l...

Back to the witches as wizards as we follow up WandaVision with what feels like a direct sequel. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is truly a visual treat as we traverse through all kinds of different universes! But what did the geeks think of the film? Give us a listen to find out!   TRACKLIST: 1:17 - Geek of the Week: Mark - Silo Season 2; Jasmin - Yakuza Fiance (2024 Crunchyroll) 11:2...

We're keeping it witchy/wizardy as we move from Doctor Strange to WandaVision ! Do you remember how talked about this series was when it dropped in 2021? Nerds were suffering from a content drought due to a global pandemic, and this was the first piece of MCU content we'd received in over a year! But how does it hold up now that we've had three years of other Marvel stories? You've got to listen t...

Now it's time to kick off our MCU magic arc! We're starting with Doctor Strange , or as Kaecilius calls him, Mr. Doctor. Have our feelings on this film changed since we first saw it in 2016? You've got to listen to find out!   TRACKLIST: 1:19 - Catching up on life! 9:58 - Geek of the Week - Mark: Fresh (2022); Jasmin: The Mafia Nanny (Webtoon) 16:06 - Film fun facts and summary 28:30 - Doctor Stra...

And we're finally (maybe??) closing out our Skrulls arc! We wrap it up with The Marvels ! The fanbros really did what they could to kill our chances of seeing these three together on screen again. But your Geeks didn't think the hate this film received was at all warranted. What did you think when you saw it?   TRACKLIST: 1:20 - Geek of the Week - Jasmin: Hell's Paradise (2023); Mark - Detective C...

In keeping with our Captain Marvel/Skrulls theme, we're sneaking this Secret Invasion review before we cover the final film in this series (so far)! What did you think about this series and how it fits into the MCU?   TRACKLIST: 1:17 - Geek of the Week - Jasmin: Officer Black Belt (Netflix 2024); Mark - Sweet Pea (Sky/Starz) 14:10 - Series summary and fun facts 22:27 - Secret Invasion series revie...

Staying with our previous episode, we've come now to cover Carol Danvers' biggest fan: Kamala Khan! Yes, we're tackling Ms. Marvel from 2022 -- and boy oh boy are we glad we waited to cover this one. One of the Geeks did a complete 180 in their opinion from the first time they watched the series two years ago. Can you guess who changed their mind?   TRACKLIST: 1:27 - Geek of the Week - Jasmin: Rom...

It's time to jump into our Skrulls MCU run! We kick it off with Captain Marvel -- which we both agreed that this film got a bunch of hate it absolutely did NOT deserve. Before we get into the film review, the Geeks both talked about falling down the true crime rabbit hole on Netflix. So let's go higher, further, faster by giving this episode a listen! TRACKLIST: 1:24 - Geek of the Week: Jasmin - A...

After an extended hiatus, your Geeks have returned!! Where were we? Totally unbeknownst to us, we both went on cruises! Mark went to France and Jasmin, like the characters in Sweet Tooth , made her way up to Alaska! Don't worry, she didn't see any Hybrids, nor does she have The Sick. ;) But we are back to wrap up this series that we began covering back in 2021!  We first dove into the world of Swe...

We started our adventure into this branch of Marvel allllllllllll the way back in March of this year! And here we are now, 21 episodes later! Thank you so much for taking this ride with us. This block has been in the works for nearly two years over here at Geeks Unleashed, and it's a little bittersweet that it's come to a close. Our "Summer of X" has lasted almost half the year and we couldn't be...

Here we are, nearing the end of the world we've been talking about for most of 2024! In this conversation episode, we're joined by the Geeks Unleashed OG Stephen Fox and our good friend and fellow Bad Batch buddy, Phable from One Collection Down ! We're talking all things X-Men -- from the books that started it all to the the 1992 cartoon to our favorite (and least favorite) films in the franchise...

We continue on with the follow up to last week's film, Deadpool 2 ! Both Geeks had the same beef with this one -- can you guess what it was?   TRACKLIST: 1:16 - Geek of the Week: Mark - Happy Valley ; Jasmin - The Heroine Runs the Show 12:25 - Film summary and fun facts 19:40 - Deadpool 2 review   You can follow us on X , Facebook and Instagram or if you would like to support us you can donate to...

We're in the endgame now! Here we are at the final franchise in our Summer of X series. We're closing out this series with a bang, starting with Deadpool !   TRACKLIST: 1:30 - Geek of the Week: Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F   13:07 - Film summary and fun facts 26:46 - Deadpool (2016) review   You can follow us on X , Facebook and Instagram or if you would like to support us you can donate to our KoFi...

To completely wrap up our stint with our favorite adamantium clad anti-hero, we read Wolverine Origin (2001). This mini series was a nice change of pace from the other X-Men collections we've read during our Summer of X series. Both Geeks really enjoyed going all the way back to the late 1800s to learn more about James Howlett. TRACKLIST: 1:55 - Characters - First Appearances 3:07 - Summary and Ho...

We're at the last entry in the Wolverine stand alone films! Can you believe this is Mark's first time watching the film?! Do you think it holds up well 7 years later? TRACKLIST: 1:43 - Geek of the Week: Jasmin - Road House (2024); Mark - A Quiet Place Day One 14:04 - Film summary and fun facts 30:15 - Logan (2017) review   You can follow us on X , Facebook and Instagram or if you would like to sup...

We are joined this week by our good friend DeVaughn, from The Good Game Guys podcast! Everyone had seen this film before, but we all had wildly different experiences! Tune in as we keep working our way through our Summer of X series!   TRACKLIST: 1:25 - Geek of the Year (so far!) - DeVaughn: Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes ; Jasmin: Tadaima, Okaeri (anime); Mark: Kingdom of the Planet of the Ape...

We've finished all the team driven films and are embarking on the individual characters now. We're kicking it off with the first of the Wolverine trilogy. Jasmin has seen this film more times than she can count, but this is only Mark's second viewing. Will this have any bearing on the Geek's rating?   TRACKLIST: 1:16 - Geek of the Week: Jasmin - A Condition Called Love (Crunchyroll); Mark - House...

Between reshoots, a merger, and COVID, how much sympathy are the Geeks willing to give to the circumstances surrounding this film? Can The New Mutants surprise us in spite of its doomed production?   TRACKLIST: 1:45 - Geek of the Week: Mark - Dark Matter (AppleTV); Jasmin - Windbreaker (Crunchyroll) 17:15 - Film summary and fun facts 25:30 - The New Mutants (2020) Review   You can follow us on X ,...

Call it a casualty of the merger if you'd like, but Dark Phoenix is the second to last film in this age of X-Men as lead by Fox. We definitely dig into some of the behind the scenes drama with this one, but where does it fall on our ranking of X-films so far? You've got to tune in to find out!   TRACKLIST: 1:17 - Geek of the Week: Jasmin - A Sign of Affection (Crunchyroll); Mark - Yellowface (2023...

Rolling right along, here we are at 2016's offering of X-Men: Apocalypse . Mark originally saw this one in theaters while this was Jasmin's first time watching the film. Are the Geeks on the same page with this one? Give us a listen to find out!   TRACKLIST: 1:16 - Geek of the Week: Jasmin - Atlas (Netflix); Mark - Baby Reindeer (Netflix) 13:42 - Film intro and fun facts 25:44 - X-Men: Apocalypse...

Another Late to the Party Book Club episode in the middle of our "Summer of X!" Since we just covered Days of Future Past last week, we're now on the two issue run that started it all! Once again, we're joined by our brother Lynk to deep dive into the legacy of this 1980s classic.   TRACKLIST: 3:17 - Familiarity with this story 9:56 - The legacy of this story 11:43 - Do writers know when their wor...

We are joined once again by our homie, Lynk to help us get through this -- dare we say -- underrated film? That's right, our "Summer of X" continues as we tackle The Rogue Cut of X-Men Days of Future Past . And when we say this is an underrated film, you'll understand why when we talk about the absolute POWERHOUSE year for blockbuster films that was 2014.   TRACKLIST: 1:20 - Geek of the Week: Lynk...
