Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins Jul 23, 2021

Show notes

Yo, Joes, we know the G.I. Joe film franchise has been on leave since 2013, but the wait is finally over. Paramount just deployed Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins, a reboot prequel centered around everyone’s favorite silent ninja, played here by a not-silent Henry Golding. Directed by Robert Schwentke (Red) with a screenplay by Evan Spiliotopoulos (Charlie’s Angels), this new origin story resets the character with his own solo feature. The cast includes Andrew Koji, Haruka Abe, Úrsula Corberó, Samara Weaving, Takehiro Hira, and Iko Uwais.

Intro Music: The main theme from G.I. Joe: The Movie, composed by Robert J. Walsh and Jon Douglas.

Pig Jul 20, 2021

Show notes

Sit down for a spell and enjoy a meal with us. That's right, we're doing a special bonus review of Pig, a new psychological drama from Neon starring Nicolas Cage, Alex Wolff, and Adam Arkin. Directed by Michael Sarnoski in his feature film debut, Pig is definitely not your average film, and we definitely have a lot to go full ham about with this one.
