Episode #132 – Batman Forever
This week, Perry is joined by old friend and author Mark Bousquet and they dive into Batman Forever. And while it's not a particularly good movie, it's easily the horniest Batman movie ever made. Plus, Mark has an interesting theory that puts the entire film into a completely different lens. Doesn't necessarily make it better, but it certainly led to a really interesting discussion.

Episode #131 – The Punisher (2004)
The Punisher has had a number of false starts in adaptations and in this episode, we discuss the 2004 attempt starring Tom Jane and John Travolta. Anthony Desiato of the Digging For Kryptonite podcast returns to the show to talk about a character quite different from his usual fare and there's a lot of good to be found in this film, but also plenty to criticize.

Episode #130 – Jumper
In this episode, we revisit another forgotten superhero movie from the early aughts. Nic Baldwin of the In Love With Movies podcast is the guest to revisit this little-known film starring Hayden Christensen and Samuel L. Jackson. It's got some moments, but it's unfortunately not the same kind of unrefined gem that the similar Push was.

Before Guardians of the Galaxy, James Gunn directed another superhero film called Super.

Episode #127 – Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
We're back with the second part of our Fantastic Double Feature! Kelen Conley is here again, and this week we're revisiting Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, which is the best FF movie to date...although that's not saying much. We discuss the things that really work in this movie, how Doom is still the greatest weakness, and why the Galactus cloud actually made sense (for the time).

Episode #126 – Fantastic Four (2005)
Kelen "B-Hyphen" Conley returns for another double feature. And this time out, we're looking back on the Tim Story Fantastic Four films that introduced Chris Evans to most Marvel fans. There's a lot more good in this movie than people remember, even if it is hampered by some poor writing and at least one very spectacular miscast.
