Hello There, Not many new movies that I wanted to catch this week (though Avengers: Age of Adeline is tempting).

Weekly Recap: Unfriended, Star Wars, And More!

Image
Hello there,  While there were a number of releases in theaters this week, I only had a chance to check out Unfriended. That said, I've heard good things about Monkey Kingdom  and Ex Machina  is spreading to more theaters. Still working on this format for weekly recaps, but I've incorporated more articles, serving as what I consider to be highlights as far as things I have posted. All that in mind, we got a new STAR WARS trailer this week!

Out Now Commentary: Daredevil: Director’s Cut (2003)

Image
Out Now with Aaron and Abe has quite the treat here. In honor of the Netflix series that has recently debuted, the guys have decided to record a commentary track for the 2003 Daredevil film, starring Ben Affleck. More specifically, they are discussing the director’s cut of the film with guests Brandon Peters and Jim Dietz. Lots of interesting conversation here, as Daredevil is a flawed film for sure, but not one without its merits, especially in this director’s cut form. Plus, lots of great fun and information delivered throughout. Important Note:   This commentary may feature both juvenile uses of language and jokes that may be considered un-PC.  We of course are just trying to have a fun time… So now, if you’ve got an hour to kill…
