Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle go over Disney’s slate of upcoming films, which includes a lot of T.B.D.s, a lot of Avatars and a surprising lack of Star Warses.

Also, they discuss the infamous coffee cup in Game of Thrones and Joel invents a new game inspired by the classic Netflix Game – the IMDB Game, which involves guessing which films IMDB thinks an actor is known for.

Can Joel accurately describe the plot of Avatar? How did a coffee cup end up in Game of Thrones? What films is Samuel L. Jackson known for? The answers to these questions and more are on this week’s show.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • End – “First of May” by Jonathan Coulton

Why would anyone choose regular fries over curly fries? Did Endgame live up to the hype? Was the resolution of the film a happy ending? The answers to these questions and more are on this week’s show.

This week’s music:
