Highways are paths all of us take at some time or another.

We all have that “drawer” in the kitchen, our offices, or even our podcast studios where things - accumulate. Inside this most-recent episode of Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD, Season 5, Episode 16, Inside Voices, we’re exposed to a number of elements. At LEAST as many elements as we all have inside those collective drawers. What were we able to piece together from this episode? More importantly, what...

There's something frightening about trends. One day, it's just a random blip on your social media news feed. The next day, everyone is dumping buckets of ice water on themselves while they try on flesh colored leggings and chewing on packets of laundry soap. Once a trend gets going, it's almost impossible to stop. Much like a hoard of flesh craving zombies! Since 2004, with the release of the hit...

One could only imagine that an incredibly important “signal” was coming from St. Louis, MO - that dealt with Agents of SHIELD on ABC. While we would LOVE to think that that emitted signal was THIS - The Agents of SHIELD Podcast, what we find inside this episode, Season 5, Episode 11 - All the Comforts of Home - is something much different! Pop the cap off YOUR Zima, nab a bite of the Bar Burger, t...

Everyone has an opinion. In the world of film, "critics" are tasked with giving us a well rounded look at the upcoming feature we may or may not be interested in seeing. Horror always seems to get the short end of the stick due to its basic nature of being disturbing, violent and sometimes gory. Here at 2GuysTalkingHorror, we think of ourselves as film appreciators instead of critics. We LOVE horr...

What happens when you’re told that one of your most-favored characters has to die this episode? How about if you’re told and can “feel” that at least ONE of our hero team is going to die? How about that MULTIPLE CHARACTERS are going to die? There’s something to an episode that doesn’t only get your motor running, but does it without THUNDEROUS ACTION SEQUENCES - though, those are here too. You kno...

Remember when The Wizard Of Oz would air on television once a year and if you missed it, you were shit out of luck? It was the same with the Christmas specials. Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, Frosty the Snowman and A Charlie Brown Christmas. If you and your family didn’t tune in, you had to wait a whole year for another opportunity to watch them. Holiday Specials were once a staple in the homes o...

What happens when you discover that the plan you’ve made - isn’t the one that’s going to work, but only a piece of what needs to be done? The fact is that no ONE THING is ever enough regardless of the effort, and things have never been truer in this regard, than during THIS episode of Agents of SHIELD on ABC and Hulu streaming.

There's something to be said, when you hear that Hollywood is going to take a Norse God the princess from the STAR WARS prequels, and make a feature film. While originally not a mainstream comic book hero, Thor is one with very interesting storylines, character arcs, and what not too long ago would have been IMPOSSIBLE situations when it comes to film-making. The "Rainbow Bridge?" Right. The "9 Re...

The inter-workings of traveling through and in time - are complex. While we'll all have many days, what if you were able to move through them, cataloging your experiences, interactions and more as the not-yet-recorded events happen as you barrel towards tomorrow's doom. There's a LOT to unpack inside this most-recent episode of Marvel's Agents of SHIELD Season 5 Episode 8 - The Last Day. Let's get...

  Stephen King has long been labeled the modern day Master of the Macabre, even though not all of his novels and short stories are considered horror. But because the majority of his body of work does exist in the realm of nightmare fueled, scream-inducing terror, they are ripe for adaptation. Over the decades, King's work has appeared on both the big and small screens. During the '90's and early 2...

Escape: the act of evacuating physically. An inclination to retreat from unpleasant realities through diversion or fantasy. An Album by the rock group, Journey, 1981. Regardless of YOUR definition of the word "escape" it's what at the center of another episode of Marvel's Agents of SHIELD on ABC and Hulu streaming. Action. Questions. Familiar characters and a truly memorable family squabble put is...

Big characters often require big actors to jump aboard a movie but - what happens when that's not the case? In fact, what happens when the "star" of the movie will be entirely CGI'd? The answer, in most cases, when so much computer generated art is implemented is often disappointing. Inside 2008's The Incredible Hulk, the Green Goliath is COMPLETELY CGI. Did it float? Did it help to drive the prov...

One of the most under-emphasizes facets of cinema is effective, complimentary music. The right soundtrack will put you in the right mood and help guide you through the storytelling blow by blow. The WRONG soundtrack will make a feature film effort jarring and blow you away, destroying your cinema-going experience. Recently, we talked to Iron Man 2 Composer, John Debney, who has a long and continue...

Connecting the Past, with what's happening in the Future, is no easy road. When you take the cavalcade of characters, the events of the last 5 episodes, the push towards Infinityness and the fact that somewhere inside this episode, there needs to be "Fun & Games" well - There's a tall order that's waiting to be billed for sure. Inside this episode, Season 5, Episode 6, "Fun & Games" we find yet an...

The original changed the way we ALL think about "those stupid comic book movies" and served as the first of many cinematic offerings that continue to change what we think of comic book nostalgia. Inside 2010's Iron Man 2, we revisit the red and gold suit (albeit an altered suit, along with a suitcase suit - ha!) to learn more about a Stark rival, his son, and the US Government's always-available t...

The clear mark of excellence in storytelling is that what you watch - STICKS. The line that a story takes. The character interactions. The touches of tech that roll past the eyes but burn a curvaceous, indelible image are the stuff of legend. Inside this most-recent episode of Agents of SHIELD on ABC and Hulu streaming, we're given "Rewind" - a snapshot of what's happened to layover what we've alr...

There's a lot more to Iron Man than a suit of iron. The history of Marvel Comics has grown exponentially providing cinematic visages of more paper-based heroes than we could have originally imagined. The film that started the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) run, was a movie directed by Jon Favreau, starring Robert Downey Jr.. Iron Man (2008) provided the first of many outstanding "brought-to-life-...

Viral Outbreaks. Bio-Terrorism. Deforming Mutations. Flesh-Craving Zombies. All of these things are synonymous with the Resident Evil film series. A film series based (loosely) on a successful video game franchise of the same name. A film series that has given us six movies over a span of fifteen years. A film series that has divided genre fans since its inception. A film series that has reached i...
