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? Or will the audio trap of bantering and franchise nostalgia be too much for you and cause you to reach for the timestamps? Listen or jump from timestamp to timestamp...The choice is yours.

*cough* Additionally these fools have something called a "plus"...I have no idea what that means, but Red discusses his new Halloween buddy and Cupcake goes green again.

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. Rai of “The Gentlemen’s Guide to Midnite Cinema.” Both of the guests have video games as their pluses, with Jose having a plus that is video game inspired. Justin was the lone one out, relying on a familiar bingo piece for his plus (or would that be prime?).

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 titles, and have their passions run amok staining the proceedings like bad CGI blood. But is this summer "bullets, buddies, and babes" film a Watch or a Skip? Before it all, E.F double pluses an IMAX re-release and provocative new book, Cupcake quickly shadows his plus, while Red reveals the recent Regal Mystery Movie.

Grab your rosaries and say your "Hail, Mary"s, as the Watch/Skip'ers review the latest spin off from the Conjuring Horror Universe - The Nun 2. Considering that the Boys didn't care much for the first film, it may be a revelation to hear which host gives almighty praise to the movie, one which could spawn a habit forming sequel trilogy or at a minimum, see the titular horror icon resurrected in a future Conjuring film. Before that, Red mourns the passing of a screen legend (this is a riddle, folks) while also slipping in mentions of two upcoming films. Then, Cupcake gives a shout-out to two super-fans before a little bit of "story time".

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're looking at you "King of Fighters"!). Before that, Red plus's the passing of two powerhouse athletes (and reveals Cupcake's Happy One Year Anniversary gift to him) while Cupcake shout-outs a brilliant invention he gifted to a guest of our show.

While you wait for our new episode to drop, tide yourself over by listening to our very own Cupcake review "Underwater" on the latest episode of Not a Bomb! (See what I did there)? He's joined by Sam U. Rai of the GGTMC to discuss the COVID-plagued monster flick with Troy & Brad.

Welcome back to another exciting episode of Not A Bomb. This is the podcast where we go back and reexamine some of the biggest bombs in cinematic history and see if they deserve a second chance. On this week’s episode, the guys are joined by Sammy from the GGTMC and Jose from Watch/Skip+ to discuss 2020’s science fiction film - Underwater. Marred by COVID, Underwater failed to make a splash at the box office and critics found the story to be derivative. Join us as we explore the infinite scope of the ocean and wonder if Underwater is truly a bomb.

Underwater is directed by William Eubank and stars Kristen Stewart, Vincent Cassel, Jessica Henwick, John Gallagher Jr., Mamoudou Athie, and T.J. Miller

Be sure to subscribe to the Gentlemen’s Guide to Midnite Cinema to hear more of Sammy. Also, check out Jose’s podcast - Watch/Skip+ • A podcast on Anchor. Both are highly recommended.

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 (AKA Flickboxer AKA LuckKey Find Comics). Multiple guests with multiple nicknames wearing multiple hats reviewing a film about multiple timelines and multiverses featuring multi-Batman, multi-Flash’es, and multi-Supermen and women….it kinda feels like kismet. Is this a flawed but zippy and fast comic book extravaganza (as "fast" as two and half hours can be)? Or did shenanigans off screen, above and below the line, destroy the potential of the closing chapter of now dead Snyderverse?

Is Machine Gun Jelly a transformer in disguise?

Before finding out the answers to those questions, the duo share a rare joint plus. Jose & Justin finally met up once again for yet another movie marathon, this time with more gents in tow! The two wax poetically about their Saturday shared with fun flicks and good friends.

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 Jose’s plus of a healthy Kickstarter campaign he contributed to, Justin’s plus of an astoundingly awful film from an auteur, and the two constantly getting sidetracked in the cast & crew breakdown on projects and Russian culture that they’re passionate about.

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 or may not contain surprising and unexpected bickering, frustration, and expletive laden diatribes from one of the hosts. Before that, Justin talks a new imprinting procedure he had done, and Jose attempts to talk about a streaming club that you don't talk about whilst attempting to NOT violate his NDA.

NEW EPISODE DROPPED IN YOUR LAP LIKE NOMI FROM SHOWGIRLS!

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 enthusiasm?

Before finding that out, Cupcake and the Cinemasochist have two pluses each to discuss. Jose starts with the miraculous (and pricey) procurement of a long-searched for DVD (hint: it’s a Bingo piece), then switches gears to an inspirational interview from a popular actor (hint: think HBO). Justin first gives a shout out to a close friend’s recent television success, then reviews a film he’s been putting off since the start of this show (hint: it’s also a Bingo piece).
