The latest Star Wars stand-alone movie is finally here. This is the movie, it seems, many wanted to hate before it was even released. Find out which side of the fence we stand on. Star Wars: The Last Jedi was also re-watched as well as completing the novel adaptation. Deadpool 2 was seen again, and there were a couple things we forgot to mention last time. If that wasn't enough, there's talk on a 2017 movie called Eliose, which is about an insane asylum in Michigan. It stars Eliza Dushku and Chace Crawford and was pretty weird. Of course, there's your weekly comic book recap.

It is--in a good way. In the news, there's a bunch of TV cancellations (and some renewals) to talk about. And of course there are a lot of comic books to talk about.

It's another long episode. This week we discuss the Jennifer Lawrence movie, Red Sparrow. We also talk about all the craziness so far of Agents of SHIELD's fifth season. There's also a little discussion on Mute, directed by Duncan Jones along with plenty of entertainment and comic news, which includes some more updates from Marvel's "Fresh Start" comics. Somehow in the comics discussion area, DC Comics were skipped. That's what happens when the discussion goes out of order even though it's a long episode. Really really sorry about that.

Get ready for an extended episode. We watched the Natalie Portman/Oscar Isaac movie, Annihilation. It's one of those movies that really gets you thinking. That means we had a lot to say about it. The discussion is after all the news and comic book talk. There's warning before any spoilers begin. In the news section, there's also talk about Marvel's "Fresh Start" news and what it means for upcoming comics. Somehow after the movie talk, we went off on a strange time travel tangent. That's just part of the randomness of the show.

The Podcast From Heck will not be televised. That's because it's an audio show, silly.
Get ready for a big Black Panther discussion. I watched it for a second time with Skye. It was a late night recording, but we spent about an hour on it. That means the entire podcast is just under two hours. If you still haven't watched the movie, all the discussion and spoilers will be at the very end of the episode.

This week, Winchester was released. The movie was "inspired" by the events of the heiress of the Winchester rifle fortune and her obsession to continue round-the-clock construction on her estate outside of San Francisco in order to appease the spirits of those killed by Winchester rifles. The new trailer for Ant-Man and the Wasp answered some minor questions about Scott Lang since his appearance in Captain America: Civil War. There was also some entertainment news, including another TV trailer for the Syfy show, Krypton, which Tony accidentally referred to as "Metropolis," due to the news about that show...which he forgot to go into. There's also a bunch of comic book talk.

This week we talk about Liam Neeson's latest round of bad luck. While it's not another Taken movie, there is the fact that his character is trying to live a normal life but then gets sucked into a crazy and intense situation...on a commuter train. It's way better than that meager description. There's also the latest Marvel Cinematic Universe news along with Fox mutant movies updates, new trailers, thoughts on the latest comics, and much more.
