The Sci-Fi Wise Guys

We watched Netflix's "historical" anime, Yasuke ! Yasuke tells a story about a historical figure that takes...creative liberties. Excellent animation and action bookend this anime from LeSean Thomas.

We watched the pilot episode of Netflix original series, Shadow and Bone ! In a world where being different isn't all that different from being different. A different girl becomes even MORE different when it's discovered that she is actually different from the other different people!

Mythica is back, and this time it's personal. Thane gets taken prisoner and the team must undertake a dangerous mission. Teela discovers some beetles that teach her "all you need is love."

We review and talk about Marvel's newest hit show. Does the world need to go back to the way it was? How high can this Falcon fly? How far is too far to change the world?

We watched MORTAL KOMBAT!!! We give our first impressions and decide if this was a flawless victory! Also, Kat's back with some bonus insight into gore, violence, and unnecessary plot lines.

We didn't watch Prometheus ! Follow the crew of a rescue ship trying to solve a mysterious mystery. Does this movie deserve it's mythical name? What endless suffering must you endure before you figure out the solution?

We watched the indie, online miniseries, Continuum ! Step into and out of logic with the Sci-Fi Wise Guys as we try to figure out.....what the heck this is. Who, what, why, and when are just some of the questions we have! Where is Rachel Nichols?

We watched the indie cyberpunk movie, Virtual Revolution ! This sci-fi flick takes us into the 'Verses. Huge virtual reality worlds where human beings can be whoever, whatever, or wherever they want. Who knew how useful a moat would be? The Sci-Fi Wise Guys log in and find out!

We watched our first listener poll movie, Tom & Jerry ! What is and isn't considered Science Fiction? Some would say yes, others would say no. Find out what happens when an animated mouse and cat do battle in a prestigious New York (London) hotel. Can they overcome their base instincts and work together in a way that fills everyone's heart?

Help us celebrate First Contact Day! We get to talk about Star Trek and a few of our favorite things as we peel back the kimono a little bit for the other Trekkers and Trekkies out there! Let us know your opinions as well! Favorite ships, movies, and captains since that is what everyone else always ranks!

We watched the pilot for the Netflix original series, The One ! One way or another, she's gonna match you. Does science go too far in this show about DNA matching for love? Brutal business decisions and secrets allow us to glean into the mind of a pioneer. Politicians and relationships - old and new - dot the side stories. Our hosts provide the most important relationship advice of all. Would you...

We watched the 2017 theatrical cut of Justice League ! In the interest of fairness, we go back and reviewed the differences between Justice League 2017 and the Snyder Cut. Stunted characters and undeveloped plot mires this movie in mediocrity. We would recommend side-Steppenwolf'ing this one.

We watched the most anticipated straight-to-stream movie of all time, Zack Snyder's Justice League ! The Snyder Cut is upon us and we geek out! Is two additional hours plenty of time to fix the 2017 release? Is this the epic comeback the DCEU needs? What is and what isn't canon?

We watched the much anticipated Zack Snyder's Justice League ! Our full review is coming this Monday, but for now check out our initial thoughts and reactions in this short bonus episode!

We watched the sci-fi mockumentary The Beyond ! In this curious project by Hasraf Dulull, we explore the limits of the human brain and our patience. Only human 2.0s can really handle the extreme conditions that The Void and this movie put you through. Does this film's anti-military message miss it's mark? Can this cast of relatively unknowns reach the outer limits?

We watched our first Marvel Studios joint! Join the Sci-Fi Wise Guys as we jump on the WandaVision bandwagon! We add our opinions to the giant pile and point out all the things you already read about on Reddit!

We binged the Netflix anime series Pacific Rim: The Black ! Another foray into anime for the Sci-Fi Wise Guys! Amazed how everything isn't upside down and confused by the plot twist, we drift into this action packed show! Are giant robots cool? Are giant monsters cool? Do we find the Jaeger Masters? The answer is "yes" in our first full season review.

We watched the Danny Trejo indie gem Cyborg X ! Join us as we delve into the latest installment into the Cyborg Saga. Danny "I wasn't in any of the other movies" Trejo, you, and us go on a breathtaking thrill ride in the aftermath of AI taking over the Earth. This isn't Terminator, Singularity, The Matrix, or Age of Ultron, it's Cyborg X!

We watched the Netflix original The Midnight Sky ! Is this a throwback to the sci-fi of yore? We go to the outer limits in this Clooney joint. When a mysterious catastrophe threatens all life on Earth, does Dr. Lofthouse save a crew on a dangerous mission to find sanctuary?

We watched the John Suits masterpiece Breach ! Take a trip to a new planet in this....movie! We join Yawn McClane on the last ship off Earth heading to New Earth. Tropes and plot rehashes abound in this trek through the stars!

We watched the Netflix original Outside the Wire ! Do androids dream of human death? We visit the Ukraine in this war time sci-fi action flick. Hawkeye makes his glorious return to the B-Roll Podcast with even more plot this time. Moral quandaries slapped us in the face in the 3rd act and we were not ready!

We watched the Netflix distriburiginal, Freaks: You're One of Us ! Wendy moonlights at Chop Pork Heaven while her superhero alter ego, "Wendy", takes a 16 year sabbatical after a mission goes wrong. After she stops taking her government mandated medication she gets her powers and groove back. But what makes a hero a hero? The answer: not a stupid name.

Join the Sci-Fi Wise Guys as we move heaven and Earth in this sci-fi epic from China. Take a page out of Moving Planets: An Idiot's Guide when the Sun decides it wants to expand into our back yard. We lose sight of the plot and the Moon as our plucky group of nobodies save the day!

The Sci-Fi Wise Guys take a one way flight through this interesting and engaging Netflix original. What language do they speak in Belgium? How incompetent is airport security? Can a plane out run the sun?

Is this recall total? It's tropes vs one liners in this Mauro Borrelli joint! More a tech demo than actual B-Movie, the Sci-Fi Wise Guys find out that Kyle returns and pray at the altar of Snipes. The Hanar from Mass Effect make a guest appearance alongside Walter White’s kid.
