Another October, another horror franchise taken over by David Gordon Green and Danny McBride. This year, the Boys tackle “The Exorcist: Believer,” the first in a planned trilogy from Blumhouse.

I want to play a pod....Before you stand two critics whose mouths have run amok and inflamed your sense of film...loving some theatrical and streaming movies while relegating others to the "Skip" bin. Will you press play and be able to resist their charms as they turn their acid tongues towards the brand new 10th entry in the long running, now self referential horror franchise - Saw X? O...

The Boys get heady this week in discussing Gareth Edwards’ sci-fi meditation on humanity, “The Creator.” To help them break down the many philosophies and rich visuals within, they welcome two of their podcast creators, Brad of “Not a Bomb” and Sam U.

Get battle-ready for a doozy of an episode as the Watch/Skip'ers welcome back E.f. Contentment and his singular wit and wry humor to take on Expend4bles, the fourth in the Stallone-Statham-Lundgren-Couture fronted franchise. Clearly the film - which welcomes Megan Fox and others to the cast- had an unintended effect as the trio dole out bad imitations, express anger over cutesy franchise film...

The Boys put on their thinking caps this week to help Hercules Poirot solve the mystery of “A Haunting in Venice.” Did they successfully uncover the secrets and enjoy the journey? Before finding that out, Cupcake pluses a prequel series that attempts to set up the rules of a game, while Red gets a new nickname from a series of seasonal products he tested. UNCOVER OUR SECRETS IN YOUR EARS!!! Timest...

The Boys get threequalized* this week as they wind down the summer box office with “The Equalizer 3.” Is this supposed finale of Antoine Fuqua & Denzel Washington’s film adaptation of the hit show worthy of closing out the summer and trilogy? Before finding out, Jose lays the foundation for a makeup line with his plus while Justin discusses a historic wrestling event and the crazy fallout from...

Jam down on the gas pedal as the Boys race to review "Gran Turismo", the much anticipated, somewhat delayed Neill Blomkamp directed adaption of the famed racing simul....uh, video game. Did this hybrid video game adaptation/"based on a true story" biopic win the Watch/Skip'ers over or does it belong relegated to the bin of "skip" worthy video game adaptions (we&#3...

Happy birthday to us! Watch/Skip+ is officially a year old, so we celebrated in style by inviting our most frequent guest, Masaki, to help us blow out the candles. The Son of Sam U. Rai isn’t just here to join in on the festivities, but to assist in reviewing yet another superhero origin story, “Blue Beetle.” Did we find the latest cinematic offering from DC to a good unofficial start to James Gun...

The Boys take a trip to the beach and encounter a deadly shark this week, as they review “Meg 2: The Trench.” Not only were they surprised by the pedigree behind the camera, but their own personal feelings surprised them. There’s even a musical aspect of their review, at one point! Before getting to all of those surprises, Jose reviews two recent movies that hit streaming for his plus, while Justi...

BOOM goes the summer movie season as the Watch/Skip'ers (who are officially 50 episodes old!) review the eagerly anticipated new Christopher Nolan, the biopic of the father of the nuclear bomb "Oppenheimer". Their extremely special guest is Kevin from the Raiders of the Podcast podcast from way across the pond (a Scotsman in England) who finally makes his WS+ debut. Put on your prote...

The Boys take a ride to Barbie Land this week to discover if life in plastic is indeed fantastic! They are not alone, as good friend Alex (formerly of the wonderful “Friends with Cinefits” podcast) rides along to Greta Gerwig’s much-hyped “Barbie” utopia.

Your mission should you choose to accept it.... ...is to get this new massive episode in your ears where The Cinemasochist and Cupcake invite Troy, the most excellent co-host of Not A Bomb AND a Certified Cruise-ologist to take on what might be THE tentpole event blockbuster of the summer. Will the hosts drink in the espionage and action and find that it out-Bonds even Bond or is it another sequel...

Another week, another sequel covered on the show. The genre this time is horror, with the Boys tackling the fifth installment in the “Insidious” franchise, “The Red Door.” Did the self-professed HORROR nuts (make sure to pronounce that correctly) find this return to form for the series to be a good decision? Before finding out, Jose pluses his animated nostalgic stress-reliever while Justin once a...

Wind up your podcast speakers and dial into this new episode as the Watch/Skip'ers whip up a review of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, the fifth in the iconic Dr. Jones franchise from Spielberg and Lucasfilm. With nearly 15 years between this sequel and the last, is Harrison Ford up to giving the legendary adventurer a return-to-form, crowd pleasing send off? Or is this yet another over...

WE ARE BACK IN A FLASH WITH A NEW EPISODE! On this packed episode, The Boys and TWO….count ‘em….two guests take on the DCEU/Snyderverse cap film before the Gunn-led DCU (confused yet?) “The Flash” directed by Andy mus-key-YE-ti and starring Ezra Miller, Michael Keaton, and Ben Affleck. Joining Cupcake and Red are our favorite, most frequent guest Masaki (AKA Landon AKA Son of Sam U. Rai) and Brian...

Watch/Skippers, roll out! The Boys tackle the seventh (!) movie in the lucrative blockbuster “Transformers” franchise, “Rise of the Beasts.” Do either Red or Cupcake consider themselves fans of the series (be it the films, the show, the comics, or toys)? If not, did this latest installment convert them? Is Machine Gun Jelly a transformer in disguise? Before finding out the answers to those questio...

The Boys head back into the world of animation this week and they're not alone. Since this week's film, "Spiderman: Across the Spiderverse," is a living, breathing comic book movie, they called upon their comic book compatriot, Masaki, to join in on the fun. Before spinning their opinions on the anticipated sequel to "Into the Spiderverse," Landon has two pluses to rock...

It is only fitting that The Boys cover “The Machine” this week, as its star, Bert Kreischer, is a popular comedian most known for his podcast appearances. Did that surface level simpatico generate enthusiasm for his film? Given how long Cupcake and the Cinemasochist ramble on prior to getting to the review proper, I think you can already guess the outcome. The near hourlong rambling consists of Jo...

The Boys gas up the podcast and race into reviewing the Xth sequel in the long-running Fast and the Furious franchise. TEN films in the series, will Fast X herald the reinvigoration of the fast cars/fast heists/sexy and fast actors and quite furious franchise or is it time to yank out the engine, put this car up on bricks, and end this "quarter mile" lifestyle? WARNING: this episode may...

It’s time once again for the Boys to enter uncharted waters. Last month it was in animation (Super Mario Bros. Movie). This month, it’s the documentary pool. They eased themselves in with “Living with Chucky,” a personal retrospective on the “Child’s Play” franchise, which both hosts have professed their love for numerous times on the show. Did Kyra Gardner’s project fill the life-long fans with e...

THE BOYS ARE BACK!!!! After a week off (and one WSS episode later), the Cinemasochist and Cupcake are back, shaking the virtual rust off and reviewing James Gunn's swan song for not only the MCU (pssst...he now heads up a little studio called DC Studios) but also for this space opera trilogy - Marvel Studios' Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3. NO superhero/comic book can be reviewed on this...
