Under The Bridge

15/11/2023

New Under the Bridge is live, here's why we thought The Marvels was good and why you should go see it if you haven't already. We've also got trailer reviews, more jabs at Zaslav, and more!

Kinda giving the game away, but since the actors weren't able to do a lot of advance press we're just gonna have to pick up the slack! Aside from our review ...

08/11/2023

Obviously we're covering The Marvels next week, but for now have a review of Priscilla! Plus other stuff!

Per the will of the people, we're covering Priscilla this week, the A24-distributed biographical drama about Elvis Presley's ex-wife! We also cover the first...

Only took a year for me to get around to requesting an updated banner. Now with 100% more of my actual co-host!

Also we talk about Five Nights at Freddy's.

Freddy Fazbear's finally made it to the big screen, and... we have opinions. But that's not all; we also have Spider-Man news that doesn't make Cody upset fo...

Well finding three and a half hours for Killers of the Flower Moon was not on the cards this weekend, so I saw Butcher's Crossing instead. We've also got some Deadpool 3 news, Gargoyles news, new trailer discussions, and more!

Unfortunately a three and a half hour Scorsese movie wasn't in the cards this weekend, so instead have a review of a Nicolas Cage movie! We've also got more ...

I know a lot of us like to have a good laugh at El Mu**to's expense, but Mobius is a great example of how you don't need a bunch of comics appearances to become a fan favorite in adaptations.

https://youtu.be/4yyLzJ3Bmbk

But no ACTUALLY still keep laughing about El Mu**to. It's fun.

Mobius has had a long, accomplished career at the Time Variance Authority... I'd assume, because his actual comics history is pretty short. But we're gonna c...

Now that technical difficulties are resolved for the foreseeable future, Under The Bridge is back with Comic-Con coverage, new trailer discussions, and a review of the original Friday the 13th!

But it's the original Friday The 13th, hence the lack of Jason in the thumbnail. After some technical difficulties, we're back with some New York Comic-Con u...

12/10/2023

Ahead of the newest episode of Loki Season 2 I've made a new episode of Poorly Explained Comics about Ravonna Renslayer!

We still don't know exactly what Ravonna's up to this latest season... but if the comics are any indication, I can hazard a general guess at least.

05/10/2023

Took a little bit after being sad about Blue Beetle not making more money, but Poorly Explained Comics is back, and this episode couldn't be... Timelier. Eh?

Because it's Kang. It's a Kang variant NAMED Timely.

Another variant of the Conqueror is set to be pulling the strings in Loki season 2, but before Victor Timely takes the stage, let's talk about his comic orig...

04/10/2023

On this week's episode of Under The Bridge we cover the new trailer for Matthew Vaughn's Argylle, the apparent new Ultimates roster over at Marvel, an update to the still-ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike, and the new sci-fi film The Creator! Plus other stuff!

The writers' strike may be over, but the actor's strike isn't, and studio executives aren't going to make fun of themselves, so we're here to keep providing ...

27/09/2023

I saw a movie, Greg saw a movie, probably not hard to figure out who saw what if you've been listening. 😆

As the overly long title suggests, it's another week of two movies, with Greg having seen the latest Expendables and Cody having seen the new horror film It ...

13/09/2023

So for some reason HD processing is taking forever after a failed first attempt, but the new episode of Under The Bridge is live!

In this week's episode, Cody spends more time making terrible puns than actually reviewing the Nun II. But we also take a look at some of the latest impacts ...

06/09/2023

Alright we're back, kinda! Podcast is at least, and since we were gone for a week, we've got TWO movies to cover.

Nothing can keep us over the bridge for long, so we're back under it! And aside from reviews for Gran Turismo and Bottoms we discuss the details of the upcom...

28/08/2023

Due to a combination of technical difficulties and potential incoming bad weather, we're postponing this week's Under The Bridge, I can deal with one, but not the other. Hoping to have the next Poorly Explained Comics up finally this weekend, the podcast will be back next week.

23/08/2023

Oh look! A new Under The Bridge episode where we talk about why you should 100% go see Blue Beetle! Okay we also have some notes. Okay also we talk about other stuff too. But it's still worth a watch! Blue Beetle AND the podcast I mean!

Blue Beetle hasn't had the greatest opening weekend at the box office, and this week we're gonna talk about why that's a damn shame. We also have a short rev...

20/08/2023

Alright, little bit delayed but the new Poorly Explained Comics is now live, and since this was all recorded prior to me seeing Blue Beetle (which you should also do if you haven't) I can guarantee no spoilers!

Obviously Jaime's the star of the new Blue Beetle movie, but there's two other Blue Beetles who Beetled before him, and today we're gonna talk about them.Mos...

16/08/2023

Newest episode of the Under The Bridge podcast is live, where I get on my Pokemon soapbox again, we review The Last Voyage Of The Demeter, and watch a trailer that came out last week but somehow we missed. Plus other stuff!

It's a week of updates and catching up on things previously overlooked! We've got Stephen Amell updates, Pokemon updates, Wonder Woman updates, and a trailer...

11/08/2023

Back with another Poorly Explained Comics! This week's video is about the villains of the Blue Beetle movie! Which everyone should go see because it looks like it's going to be a really good time and I need more Blue Beetle in my life.

The Blue Beetle movie's almost here, so let's take a look at the upcoming villains and see what interesting comic tidbits we can find for them!

09/08/2023

This week on Under The Bridge, we review the new Ninja Turtles movie, go over some updates on the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, react to some weird (but probably good?) The Warriors news, and more!

The new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie is out, and serves as a nice distraction from the grim omens hanging in the air, because in addition to a review o...

04/08/2023

Poorly Explained Comics is back, and... okay I'm not the BIGGEST Ninja Turtles expert, but I gave it a shot.

You may already know that the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles got their start in comics. Or you may not. But do you know which comics they themselves were based...

02/08/2023

Contrary to what we thought last week, neither of us saw Haunted Mansion this weekend. But we do have a review of Talk To Me and Secret Invasion, coverage of the new Loki trailer, a surprising Digimon announcement, and more!

In a week with two spooky movies to choose from... we both chose the A24 one. Go figure. But in addition to a review of Talk To Me, we also have a new Nickel...

27/07/2023

So DC's doing an animated Watchmen movie next year. And I don't know about anyone else, but if I never see another Watchmen continuation/adaptation/misguided attempt to connect it to the broader DC mythos again I can die a little bit happier.

DC announced two new animated movies for 2024, and Cody has opinions on one of them. Well, both of them, but one was easier to clip into a short.Also I canno...

26/07/2023

Think it goes without saying that this week's podcast is about Barbie and Oppenheimer. There's other stuff too, but... c'mon. Barbenheimer's the main event.

It's been an extra-busy week between San Diego Comic-Con, two separate Hollywood union strikes, and the double feature movie release event of the summer (pos...

19/07/2023

No movie review on Under The Bridge this week due to a combination of factors. But we still have plenty of news to cover, including updates on the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, and reviews will be back next week in time for Barbenheimer!

Just because Cody's on vacation doesn't mean Under The Bridge is. It just means no movie review... and no new thumbnail. But the news goes on, and this week ...

12/07/2023

I'll admit, Joy Ride underperforming (and ESPECIALLY the B- Cinemascore) baffles the heck out of me. Because on this episode of Under The Bridge, we praise it a lot. And talk about other stuff. Hence the title.

This week on Under The Bridge, we take some time to reflect on the impending end of Red vs. Blue, rant more about Spider-Man comics, and gush about the newly...

07/07/2023

In lieu of the usual Poorly Explained Comics, have an even shorter, even more poorly explained thing from the comics!

Spoilers for Secret Invasion Episode 2 contained herein.Poorly Explained Comics may still be on break, and I may not be sure the Super-Skrulls are interestin...

05/07/2023

Among other things, on this week's episode of Under The Bridge we cover the new Superman and Lois casting, new trailers for FNAF and Dune Part 2, and review the latest (last?) Indiana Jones movie!

The time of Indiana Jones is drawing to a close (if you believe Disney at least), and we're here to review his last big adventure! We're also talking about t...

28/06/2023

Experimenting with different times to release the Under The Bridge shorts. This week's involves me being sad that there's still no sign of a Sora amiibo.

The despair I feel from this latest Nintendo Direct is almost as great as the despair I feel at still not being able to pick my own thumbnail. Specifically a...

28/06/2023

This week's podcast contains a short review of No Hard Feelings, a much longer review of Asteroid City, a Nintendo Direct breakdown, and more!

This week was full of depressing Hollywood updates, but it's not all bad; there was also a Nintendo Direct to cover! Plus trailers for Challengers and Dumb M...

24/06/2023

Taking a break from weekly Poorly Explained Comics for a few weeks since there aren't any big comic-related releases for a while/I doubt Secret Invasion is going to be dropping a new reveal every week.

But first, have an episode about Secret Invasion

Barring any huge character debuts in the next few episodes of Secret Invasion, Poorly Explained Comics will be taking the next few weeks or so off.It is defi...

21/06/2023

As the title says, we at Under The Bridge didn't see The Flash. But we know someone who did, and they've submitted their opinion to us to talk about. We DID see and have actual reviews on Elemental and The Blackening though. Plus more news and trailers!

And yet somehow, we have a review to cover anyways, submitted by a friend who did! Plus news on a bunch of movie release date shifts, Netflix trailers, revie...

16/06/2023

I am so glad that Secret Invasion starts up next week so I only have to feel obligated to do this one Flash-centric episode.

Now that The Flash movie is finally racing its way into theaters, I've decided to take a look at the time-traveling, universe-changing event that the movie i...

14/06/2023

This week's Under The Bridge is live, and includes some of the highlights (we think at least) of Summer Game Fest and a review of Transformers Rise of the Beasts. Hence the title!

Summer Game Fest has come around once again, and while we weren't able to go over the entire event, we've put together a highlight reel of our... favorite?.....

14/06/2023

Turns out Ed Edd n' Eddy and Courage The Cowardly Dog are "throwbacks" apparently. That's... depressingly accurate.

10/06/2023

Since Spider-Man Across The Spider Verse just came out and I want to do as few Flash-related episodes as I can justify doing, this week's Poorly Explained Comics is about the one and only Miles Morales!

Trying out a new visual format for this week while covering what you never knew about Miles' backstory.

07/06/2023

On this week's episode of Under The Bridge, we have all kinds of Spider-Man related news and discourse, plus other stuff!

It's a regular Spider-Palooza on Under The Bridge this week; not only do we have a review for Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse, but we also have more Spid...

07/06/2023

Despite what you may think because whatever algorithm determines Youtube Shorts thumbnails is straight garbage, this short is not (technically) about Co***ne Bear.

Apparently we need to let Greg pick trailers to cover more often.Seriously I'm getting real tired of Youtube automatically picking the thumbnail YOU COULD AT...

03/06/2023

Went up a little later than usual, but this week's Spider-Verse themed episode of Poorly Explained Comics is here!

The multiverse is a big big place, and Spider-Man has more alternate selves than most. So this week we're taking a look at a few of the more prominent Spider...

31/05/2023

This week's episode is 50%* movie reviews, 49%* superhero news, and 1%* James Cameron news. Just as nature intended.

(*all math is speculative and was not actually fact-checked)

It's a movie review double-feature this week, as we talk about Disney's remake of The Little Mermaid and the Bert Kreischer-led The Machine! We also cover th...

31/05/2023

As a small excerpt from this week's upcoming podcast episode, we draw some... interesting comparisons between Top Gun Maverick and the Super Mario Bros. Movie.
