Ranking the Marvel Cinematic Universe From Iron Man to Avengers: Endgame Apr 25, 2019

Show notes

Jon and Sam assemble this week to debate and dissect the entire MCU filmography, ranking their favorite films from best to worst. But with a twist! To create a definitive ranking, your friendly, neighborhood Cinemaholics had to compromise and collaborate on just ONE list covering all 22 films between 2018 and 2019, which includes Avengers: Endgame. It's a contentious enough discussion to spark a Cinemaholics Civil War, and the possibilities are likely infinite. So sit back, relax, and politely complain about our list by sending us one of your own!

Dumbo, The Beach Bum Apr 02, 2019

Show notes

The inmates are running the asylum this week as Jon is absent for mysterious reasons and Will takes over the show to ramble about Danny DeVito, Sad Clowns, and his enemy list with special guest Cory Woodroof! Later in the show, Will is high on his own supply — i.e. the sound of his own voice — as he spews more nonsense about Harmony Korine in a prolonged, in-depth conversation about The Beach Bum, starring a far-out Matthew McConaughey. All this and more as fans begin to get worried about Jon's sudden disappearance. You can find more episodes of Cinemaholics on Atom Tickets, as well as our full archive on cinemaholics.com.
