Against all odds, we survived Elektra! Truly one of the worst movies we've ever seen, in or out of this podcast. Why are all the supervillains so easy to kill? Why is Elektra so incompetent that they basically have to do it themselves? Why was Mark Miller in the movie? We will never have the real answers to these questions, but we'll do our best to try to come up with our own. Next week, we're breaking the glass in case of bad movie emergency. Meow!

Oh boy, we already didn't like Elektra but it's somehow gone downhill in the second act! The villains get worse and the movie gets more racist! We see three minor supervillains die in this part and Elektra didn't do any of it. Why is she even here? She's literally getting upstaged by a tree. Maybe next week she'll contribute something before the movie's over! Sam | Val | Gigalithic Twitter

Daredevil set the bar very high as a fun bad movie - can Elektra keep the momentum up? Or will it be a slow, boring, dark, miserable slog? Well, not to spoil things, but the character didn't appear on screen for over a decade after this movie came out! Could there be a reason for that? Let's find out! Sam | Val | Gigalithic Twitter

It took us way too long for how short the movie is, but we're finally wrapping up Daredevil! We've had a great time with it so far, but will it stick the landing? Or will Colin Farrell turn into a big CGI monster man? Was 2003 before movies became bad? I can't remember! Also, WILL VAL NOTICE JENNIFER GARNER'S WIG??? Sam | Val | Gigalithic Twitter

Remember when movies had a three-act structure? This week, we're reminiscing about simpler times as we watch act 2 of Daredevil! Elektra has arrived, and things are somehow very quaint and also horrifically weird at the same time. Matt loves to sniff! We've also got Wilson Fisk and Bullseye to round out the cast. Did you know Colin Farrell is Irish? Sam | Val | Gigalithic Twitter

The reviews are in! We're one third of the way through 2003's Daredevil, and this movie is officially Bad Ass! It's got Seether, and it's got Nickelback, and it's got some of the worst lawyering you'll ever see outside of Ace Attorney! Movies used to be fun! We're never watching anything post-2010 again!

Sorry, this isn't Daredevil! We sat down to talk about it but we ended up reading and laughing at Screenrant for 20 minutes first. Giga will be out of town next week, so rather than post our first Daredevil episode and then take a week off, we decided to make the Screenrant segment its own mini-episode. Did you think Batman v. Superman was bad? Well, you're wrong! Thanks for correcting us, Screenrant! Sam | Val | Gigalithic Twitter

We are finally done with Watchmen! Well, they didn't do the squid. Do we care? Not really! We're focused on a change far more offensive than that: Themes! Who would have thought we'd have a problem with themes from the guy who wrote the Kents telling Superman to let people die? Oh well! That's another movie down. Next time we'll be taking our first daring step outside of the realm of DC Comics! Sam | Val | Gigalithic Twitter

Three quarters of the way through Watchmen! The movie continues to be a combination of gross, boring, and most of all, blue! In this week's viewing, Rorschach is unmasked and Nite Owl is un-underweared. Will we find a way to shoehorn a third conversation about food into this episode? Yes! But more importantly, we read some more ScreenRant! Sam | Val | Gigalithic Twitter

Against all common sense, we're back for more Watchmen! In this week's installment, we go to the Comedian's funeral for about an hour (spoilers: Comedian dies in this movie) and follow Doctor Manhattan to Mars where he reminds us of a great chapter from the comic book series Watchmen. With all the talk of war, sexual assault, nihilism, and nuclear armageddon, things get pretty heavy this week. Fortunately, Sam's favorite website ScreenRant is here to save the day! Looks like superheroes are real after all! Sam | Val | Gigalithic Twitter
