Episode 106: Always Save Your Work

Howdy yall, so I just want to make it a point to remind you all to save your work…. No seriously do it now.  I bring up this point because I wrote a beautiful blog for all of you to enjoy but alas I was a fool and decided to close the wrong tab.  Woe is me~  But you don’t care much about that do you?  No indeed, you are here for some good ‘oll SzG commentary! So with that point of frustration I ask your forgiveness in the brevity of this post and now on with the show.  No Theatrical Review this week but don’t fret!  Avengers 2 is just around the corner as well as the beginning of the glorious Summer Movie season.  This week’s topics include Trailers from Batman V Superman, Ant-Man, Terminator Genisys, StarWars, Battlefront, Netflix getting a How to Train Your Dragon TV show and Oliva Munn cast as Psylocke.  Oh and you also get a special SzG bet between Bat and myself.

The Outside was this weeks streaming review was from another listener and friend of the show, the Fanboy.  I had a very nice and eloquent review written out for this one but again… lost to the digital gods so I’ll sum it up for you.  Movie is bad.  It’s a surf movie with about 10% surfing.  Acting is like after school special bad.  Wooden acting might be an affront to wood supporters everywhere.  Conditional: this isn’t our type of movie so it may just be us… but online reviews seem to side with us.  Skip this one kiddos, you’ll be better for it.  Bat 3 stars (generous) Hammer 2 stars (slightly less generous).

Next week we get back to suggesting movies for ourselves with A Million Ways to Die in the West.

Just so we have it in writing dear listeners here is our SzG Hammer vs Bat Smirnoff Ice Bet.  Bat predicts that Ant-Man will be Marvels  first “flop” while I protest that it will be an equal success at least to other Movies.  We came to our estimated Box Office amounts by looking at past movies and Bat is saying that the movie will make less than $150 million while I’m saying that it will make $180 million.  We’re counting this only for it’s theatrical run and domestic only.   The stakes?  We’re using “Bros Icing Bros” as the basis for our “rewards.”  If Bat wins I shall chug a Smirnoff Ice (flavor of his choice) on bended knee and if I win he will do the same.  Now If it’s in between the two then we will have a chug off.  All of this will be posted on YouTube for your viewing pleasure.  So let the best (me) man win!
