097 - Alien3 Which version of Alien3 did we review, you ask? The Theatrical Version or the Assembly Cut? The short answer is; both. See if you can figure out when it starts to dawn on Travis and Patrick that two versions of this film exist. All that aside, we reviewed Alien3, and found it to be undeserving of its bad reputation. Watch one of the versions of it yourself, and let us know what you think.   Please take a moment to rate us on iTunes and share the show!

093 - Terminator 2: Judgement Day with Jonathan Howell   It’s a classic tale about a boy and his pet killing machine in the highly regarded sequel, Terminator 2: Judgement Day. Patrick is away on assignment this episode, but we brought in a pro when it comes to talking about action movies; Jonathan Howell. T2 is an expertly crafted mixture of action, suspense, science fiction and voice-cracking teen angst.   Jonathan Howell joins us from Minute Impossible and The Cast and the Furious, where he breaks down both Mission: Impossible and The Fast and the Furious franchises.     Please take a moment to rate us on iTunes and share the show!

089 - Captain America   We had no idea what to expect when we got to Captain America (1990). We knew there’d be fake ears, sure. But does this movie live up to its reputation as being a bad movie? Or would there be moments of heroics punching their way out of the dark like so many star-spangled fists? Maybe it’s a bit of both. Either way, we had fun talking about this movie that never quite made its way to the big screen.   Be sure to stick around at the end to hear a shocking revelation from Travis that nearly broke Patrick’s brain. Sound off in the Facebook group with your thoughts.   Featured in this episode is an audio essay about Captain America by former guest of the show, Sean Malloy.

Reel Comic Heroes 082 - Back to the Future III   Alright, Citizens. Here’s the truth.

Reel Comic Heroes 081 - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles This is another big one if you were a child of the 80s and grew up with Ninja Turtles. We were lucky to be joined by the incomparable Ralph Attanasia to take a nostalgic trip to the sewers of New York. How can a movie with four walking, talking, ninja-fighting turtles be good and continue to hold up. It just doesn’t make any sense.
