ABOUT THIS EPISODE
How do you make a sequel to a perfect movie? Godzilla Minus Zero argues that the answer is ambition. This is an incredibly challenging and brutal movie that forcibly and constantly reminded us of Frank Herbert's equally thorny sequel: Dune Messiah. In this episode, we explore that comparison as a way of celebrating this remarkably daring film.

The shadow baby has finally arrived, and with it, the tragic end of Renly Baratheon — except that none of it goes the way we expected it to. In this episode, we dig deep into the first ever explicitly supernatural 'act of god' in this series, only to find that the god in question might not be the L…

As we discover in this episode, Maggie loves change and Cam hates change. Guess how we each feel about the big news out of Blizzcon? Diablo IV just dropped the best season they've ever made but also kind of put the game out to pasture. Diablo V was announced. Destiny 2 was brought back from the dea…
Verity has a fantastic premise and some jaw-dropping twists. We both devoured the book. But then we read the ending, which backpedals and defangs everything that's interesting about the story's most interesting character. And then there's the brand new epilogue, which unwids the central drama even …
This might be the most difficult-to-describe movie of the year. It's Mad Max: Fury Road meets Curb Your Enthusiasm with a lot of Independence Day thrown in there, but then at the end it kinda turns into Avatar? We can guarantee you that you've never seen anything like this, and that it will be one …
