Why So Serious Pop Culture and Movie Review Podcast

We are joined by Valiant Comics Editor Heather Antos and the PwTorch's Rich Fann to review the finally of the most recent Star Wars trilogy, Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker.  This film was a lot. So much going on on screen, behind the scenes and it did not turn out great. Some of us enjoyed it for what it was, others hated it but we all saw the main theme of this film which was to overwrite episode 8...

We are back for our Star Wars Rewind this time reviewing Episode 6 - Return of the Jedi. This film is better than we remember but still not "good" but it was fun and George Lucas really did build an incredible universe.

We are joined by Old Man Wade from the Old Man Wade Show and Sharmane from the BlerdComixed podcast for our Star Wars Rewind and this time we have a double shot reviewing Episode 4 A New Hope and Episode 5 Empire Strikes Back. This was a fun spirited discussion of the good, bad and ridiculous in the original series.

Brandon, Mike and Big Mike are back for another Star Wars rewind and this time we are done with the terrible films and we got to review the best Star Wars film anyone has ever made Rouge One. This film thematically, cinematically and as a Star Wars is to us no question the best film. We get a story that is important to the main cannon, planets we never saw before and soo much more.

Generally we do this on the Comic Book History 101 Podcast but Brandon and Old Man Wade thought this was important enough to do a simulcast.  We are here to discuss the Marvel Comics reboot (essentially) of the X-Men. Jonathan Hickman is a genius and our favorite writer and these stories are perfect examples of why he is so great. These books establish a new era for the X-Men and turn some things...

Brandon and Rashanii are back to review Zombieland Double Tap. Rashanii and I both enjoyed this film to an extant but some of the comedy came off as outdated and we thought it was written that way for different reasons. We have a great discussion about humor and how its written, but we also talk about our love for Emma Stone and how this film gets the Zombie genre.

Brandi, Rashanii and Devin are back to review Gemini Man. This film was originally written to come out in 1997 and you can tell. We talk about the terrible CGI, the lackluster acting, the terrible CGI, the basic story, the terrible CGI, the lack of action and the terrible CGI.

Brandon, Devin and Mike are joined by Stephanie and Sharmane to go back and review X-Men Last Stand, X-Men Days of Future Past and X-Men Apocalypse \. Yes we need to have better self care but we did it so we can properly lay the Fox X-Men movie series to rest and give it its proper burial after Dark Phoenix.

Brandon, Devin and Rashanii are back to review the fantastic biopic/musical about Elton John Rocketman. This film is everything Bohemian Rhapsody wished it was and more. They take a outlandish, extremely talented, one of a kind personality like Elton John and showed his ups, his downs, his talent and everything in between.

Brandon, Devin, Rashanii and Sharmane are back to review John Wick 3 and yes its fantastic. This movie needs no introduction it needs no synopsis. Its 90 mins of pure action and as long as Keanu wants to make these films we will be here.

Brandon and Devin are joined by Dee Dee to recap Booksmart. This is one of the best comedies in years. This film is the evolution of Superbad but a whole lot smarter and and much much better. Women are soo funny and can do it without a bunch of penis jokes. This film represents modern society and real life classrooms and all the actors and actresses completely sold out for this film.
