39:30 - THUNDERBOLTS* REVIEW

What are we? Some kind of Thunderbolts* squad?

This week the nerds hit the theaters to start the summer movie season off strong with that latest from the MCU - Thunderbolts* (iykyk)

They discuss that big reveal and the potential future for the newly formed team. Does the movie stick its landing? Listen and find out!

PLUS the gaming world is on fire with the news that Rockstar Games is delaying the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI - but thankfully they have been blessed with a brand new trailer to hold them over! One nerd is excited for the next entry while a couple others need some convincing (what??). Hopefully this trailer can win them over. Watch and see for yourself!

All of that plus some exciting trailers for upcoming films including Ethan Coen’s Honey, Don’t, Together, and Spike Lee’s Highest 2 Lowest, and then, of course, we dive in with What We’re Into!
