Rating Overview
Rating Summary
Chris, Franco, and Jonathan discuss Franco’s one-minute review of Edgar Wright’s remake of The Running Man, describing its cyberpunk corporate-controlled game-show premise, action tone, cast notes (including Glen Powell and Michael Cera), and that it’s fun but not mind-blowing. They then debate why the next Avengers film feels less hyped, citing post-Endgame irreproducibility, MCU cohesion issues, Disney+ oversaturation, COVID disruptions, Jonathan Majors fallout, release spacing that reduces momentum, marketing strategy, and hopes tied to X-Men/Fantastic Four crossovers and Spider-Man’s Sony constraints. The hosts list upcoming Feb. 17 and Feb. 24 physical releases before reviewing Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith, highlighting Clone Wars context, dialogue and pacing complaints, Order 66 impact, and Padmé’s death, ultimately rating it 90/100. They end by randomly selecting The Lord of the Rings (extended editions) for the next episode.

Discussion:
Can we talk about how there appears to be no hype for the new Avengers movie? The movies have been few and far between, and haven’t been all that connected, and haven’t had the best reception.
