Just Another Friday Night

Tonight we have Kill Stan creator Deece Casillas of Inferno Comics! We first met Deece at last years Comic Arts San Antonio (C.A.S.A.) show! Later we ran into him again at one of the Wonderland of the Americas shows. His book has a unique co...

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 Ru...

Our long-awaited conclusion to the most recent Disney+ Marvel Studios installment - Agatha All Along! Now we know we’re late, but we had so much come out around the timeframe it’s taken us this long to get ourselves back on the Witches Road! And what a road it was! Filled with revelations - new characters and even Death herself! We know the ep is late and WE are starting late, like the good ol’ da...

The End is Nigh for our favorite karate kicking kids from The Valley! Not to mention Daniel-San and Johnny! And what the hell is up with Miyagi’s mysterious past?!? How does all this tie-in to the coming Ralph Macchio Karate Kid project? Tori is a snake again??? Chozen is back on the wagon? Or is it off the wagon?? Who the hell are the Iron Dragons??? And more importantly where can we follow Zara...

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’...

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 se...

“Down, down, down the road - down the Witches’ Road…” if this song is as stuck in your head as it is ours then like Us you’re likely ready to talk Agatha All Along! We’re 5 episodes in and we decided to bring in our own witchy excepts San Antonio’s own Bewitching Brujas! They’ll let us know what they think of Agatha thus as well as their thoughts on all things witchy! Let us know your thoughts in...

And you know we here at Just Another Friday Night do our best to set the tone for you Halloween horror vibe! While we’ve travelled many wicked roads in the past - this year we’re checking out some particularl...

The 3rd annual Comic Arts - San Antonio 2024 is on the horizon! And with that we’ve got The Man behind it all back to talk to us, Nasser ‘Nas’ Rodriguez. Nas is moving his show out of the mall and into the ballroom! Saturday October 5th, from 11am - 6pm at the Marriott San Antonio Airport located at 77 NE Interstate 410 Loop. This time your boys are part of the act too in the C.A.S.A’s first ever...

“No. I am your Father.” Easily one of the greatest lines in all of film history and it doesn’t stop there when it comes to a real and true Man, Myth and Legend that is James Earl Jones. A King on more than one occasion on-screen Jones’ voice and presence are always undeniable. Playing royalty seemed easy as the man exuded regality. Sadly Jones passed at the age of 93 on September 9, 2024. As huge...

The Sekai Taikai is upon us! And with that we have the final season of Cobra Kai! Netflix dropped the first 5 episodes on us back in July with the remainder to come in November. All our favorites are back Johnny, Daniel, Miguel, Sam, Tory, Robbie and all the rest. But what is the store for protagonists in this final season? It’s not Game of Thrones or The Walking Dead so hopefully no deaths for th...

By now most have heard that latest Star Wars installment on Disney+ “The Acolyte” will not be back for a second season. The news is divisive at best with some naysayers now supporting the show and others simply glad it’s gone. We previously covered the first 4 episodes of the series and then due to scheduling had to push back our conclusion of the final 4 episodes. It seems an appropriate and fitt...

House of the Dragon season 2 has concluded! But The Dance of Dragons seems to only have begun. And in true Game of Thrones fashion we’re left with more questions and more unresolved plots. So if you thought you were getting an end or even all out war - it would seem we’re a ways off. Two more seasons have been announced and while these episodes were well acted and had excellent story building we j...

**SPOILERS for DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE** It’s been over 7 days since the premiere of Marvels' latest film installment DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE! If you’re not up for SPOILERS this is not the place to be tonight! We’re going to talk about the movie in-depth with plenty of SPOILERS so this is your last and final warning!!! We assume by now most of The Friday Nighters of The Friday Night Faithful...

The Boys season 4 has come to its conclusion and what a fucking end it was. Tek Knights party in ep 6 Dirty Business? The Avenue V Christmas Special in ep 7, The Insider. And then there’s the finale originally titled Assassination Run but due to real life events it was renamed simply Season Four Finale. So like a shot of fresh milk in the mouth we’re here to talk the last 3 episodes of the quite p...

House of the Dragon has returned! The latest installment from the Game of Thrones franchise and HBO Max! We are 4 episodes in and The Dance of Dragons has officially begun! Which side have you chosen?? Are you with the Greens as they call Alicent and the Hightowers in Kings Landing where Aegon sits the Iron Throne? Or are you bending the knee to the black banners of Queen Rhaenyra on Dragonstone??...

HAPPY 4th of July Friday Nighters!!! And welcome to our INDEPENDENCE DAY SPECTACULAR!!! We couldn’t think of a better to celebrate Americas Independence than by discussing the literal symbol of America himself, Time Magazines Superhero of the Year. HOMELANDER!!! After being unceremoniously brought to trial for simply defending his son, in what was dubbed the Trial of the Century, we here at Just A...

What is an “acolyte”? Websters says “one who assists a member of the clergy in a liturgical service by performing minor duties: one who attends or assists a leader”. An interesting first thought on the new Disney+ Star Wars series THE ACOLYTE. Starring Squid Game star Lee Jung-jae as Master Sol, Amandla Stenberg as Mae/Osha, Dafne Keen as Padawan Jecki Lon, and Charlie Barnett as Yorn Fandar. Whil...

Recently made available for streaming on Max 2023 gave us THE IRON CLAW. A tale of Texas wrestlings’ most celebrated family The Von Erich’s. With the patriarch Fritz leading the charge his sons followed his footsteps into the squared circle. Not since 2008’s The Wrestler starring Mickey Rourke has a wrestling film been so captivating. The Iron Claw stars Zac Efron as Kevin Von Erich and traces the...

Comic Books! You know we love them, but what is the state of the industry today? AA had some thoughts on the matter and suggested we bring back a guest for the topic! All the way back from season 7 episode 151 - the founder of Comic Arts - San Antonio Mr. Nas Rodriguez! He’s got a comic-centric show coming up and some serious thoughts on the state of the biz himself! What do YOU - The Friday Night...

Previously on Just Another Friday Night…episode 200 to be exact Double A & CM Chuck reviewed the first 6 episodes of the new X-Men ‘97 series on Disney+. Normally we wait for a series to conclude before covering it, however this one was just too damn good to wait! And now the season has concluded and there’s a great big hole right in the middle of us. These final 4 gave us everything we could...

Fire up those Pip-Boys and crack open a nice cold Nuka Cola! We’ve got the big THUMBS UP from Vault Boy himself to dive into the series debut of FALLOUT! Based on the wildly popular video game series now Prime Video has delivered us an 8-episode series streaming with them. Fans of the video game were no doubt eagerly anticipating the series since the recent uptick in video game franchises well - f...

Listen Bud, he’s got radioactive blood. Can he swing from a thread? Take a look overhead. Hey there! There goes the Spider-Man! Back in the year of Our Lord 2002, Evil Dead director Sam Raimi and Sony gave us the feature length on-screen Spider-Man we’d waited since 1962 to see. Tobey Maguire donned the blue and red webbed suit and Marvel was never the same again. They’d had Blade, and they’d had...
