The Spidersode - Black Widow and Spiderman: Homecoming

The Spidersode - Black Widow and Spiderman: Homecoming

Joe A takes heat for defending Black Widow. The guys all agree that Tom Holland and the new iteration of Spiderman is a knock out of the park.  Blue Collar Steve and Joe T go toe to toe in a hard fought trivia battle from the mind of Joe A: "Across from and Directed by."

Civil War time. And Ant Man too.

Not even Joe A's love of Paul Rudd can pull Ant Man out of mediocrity. And the Bozos can't believe he feels the same way about Civil War, another let down in the Marvel Trilogy canon.  Joe T breaks out a very fun game that comes down to the wire in a battle between Blue Collar Steve and Joe A.

Special: Punishment Films and the Current (Great) State of Cinema - The Tree of Life, Body Double, The Northman

No Marvel this week. It's punishment time. The Bozos have their mind blown by Terrence Malick. Blue Collar Steve backtracks on his negative take as soon as Joe T begins to gush over the beauty of The Tree of Life.  Brian De Palma makes his way onto the Screen Raiders pod with Joe T and Joe A discussing a little film called Body Double, possibly the most "De Palma" De Palma film, and a big middle finger to his most ardent critics.  We discuss The Northman and the relative disappointment when compared to the majestic Everything Everywhere All At Once, and why one was successful and one was not.  And Joe A and Joe T discuss the state of cinema right now... which is looking pretty great.

Avengers: (Didn't) Age (Well) of Ultron

Our second milestone episode - The Avengers: Age of Ultron. Join us as we discuss where Joss Whedon and the gang from Marvel went wrong here after a strong start to the Avengers Franchise. Special Guest Bob Martignetti from Faces Brewing in Malden, MA. Bob is a film industry professional with an interesting taste in Yorgos Lanthimos films. He also likes to poke fun at us. A rip-roaring, ultra-good listen. Oh, and of course, Blue Collar Steve butchers another segment.

The Big Gunns: Guardians of the Galaxy Double Bill

Marvel drips with style when James Gunn takes the director's chair and the Screen Raiders gush over it. We discuss if Chris Pratt is a bonafide movie star (he certainly is). A game about Marvel star salaries that was more revealing than we thought it would be.
