Wherein Andy and Justice exhume Captain Kirk because of William Shatner's recently proclaimed dissatisfaction with the legendary figure's death. We revisit that scene in Star Trek: Generations and discuss whether or not his opinion holds up. Would Kirk have appeared in NuTrek if he had not died? Would we have even wanted that? Was this an apporpriate end for him and a way to effectively pass the torch to Picard?

Wherein Justice and Andy run screaming from the theater to produce this review of the newest entry in the Aliens franchise, Alien: Romulus. Fede Alvarez daringly returns to the original films' timeline and style, setting it between the first and second films. What do we see in this new entry that distinguishes it from the others? Where does this film hit, and where does it miss? What did you think of the Ian Holmes digital recreation as Rook? (we did not care for it). As a mostly impressive film, we discuss the possible implications for the future of the franchise.

Wherein Andy and Justice slice into the question of whether or not Deadpool & Wolverine and Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes can or have revitalized their respective franchises. TLDL: No. But seriously, both movies are worthwhile and Deadpool & Wolverine borders on excellence. Fight us. While Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes made some questionable narrative decisions and Deadpool & Wolverine purposefully criticized and tried to reboot the MCU, neither accomplished their goal of franchise revitalization. In the end, more attention is clearly needed to resuscitate these narrative universes.
