The Superhero Pantheon: The Batman (Rewatch)

Jerome and Brian take out their vengeance on all of the DC movies this decade by reviewing one of the two good ones (the other will be discussed briefly in two weeks). Is this indeed the fifth Batman worthy enough for the Pantheon? Also, why has 1995 been so influential on this character?

The Superhero Pantheon: Zack Snyder’s Justice League

Jerome swore they would never discuss this movie in full, but with the end of the Superhero Pantheon in sight, consider this a gift to Brian.

Can this movie overcome all odds and make it into the Pantheon? Has Jerome joined the Snyderverse?

Pantheon Plus – Creature Features: Shin Godzilla

It’s the grand finale of Creature Feature month and what better way to end than with a Godzilla movie! Jerome is not the biggest Godzilla fan and Brian could probably teach a class on it.

Many people have talked about Shin Godzilla since it came out in 2016 and is very different than the tone of the Monsterverse. The editing is fantastic and the dialogue sounds like an Aaron Sorkin movie. This is really a Godzilla movie!?

Jerome & Kevin Present – Cancelled Too Soon: Mindhunter

Jerome and Kevin sat down to record their longest episode in quite some time, but it’s an important one as they discuss Netflix’s Mindhunter, a show where David Fincher is featured prominently as a director and creative force.

They go over both seasons over nearly three hours and cover the good and the bad. They also determine whether the show truly was canceled too soon.

Pantheon Plus – Creature Features: Deep Rising

It’s time for a Creature that neither Brian or Jerome had seen. We talked about Stephen Sommers earlier in the year when discussing The Mummy, but before that he directed a lesser known monster movie that has a killer cast.

Shades of Jaws, mixed with Predator with a little hint of Tremors, and you get Deep Rising. Does the 1998 CGI hold up? Well, at least the script does.

Pantheon Plus – Creature Features: Tremors

Brian has seen this movie probably 50 times. Jerome has not. Did Jerome miss out on an underrated cult classic from 1990 or is Brian completely out to lunch and loves a movie that is total trash?

At the time Kevin Bacon regretted taking the role despite the fun he had making it, however the cult status of the film has led him to change his view and now sees it as his favorite movie that he’s made. Will Brian and Jerome agree? This may make or break Creature Feature month.

Jerome & Kevin Present – Cancelled Too Soon: American Vandal (Season 2)

Last time, it was all about who drew penises on cars. This month, it’s about identifying the turd burglar.

Jerome and Kevin explore the second season of American Vandal, an ambitious eight episodes with a lot on its mind. Find out whether this is something truly different or a crappier version of season one.

Pantheon Plus – Creature Features: Alligator

Brian has been trying to get Jerome to watch Creature Feature movies for years now. He almost got a whole month dedicated to Godzilla but they both settled on Creature Feature month instead. However, Brian has picked some movies that somewhat go beyond the B-Movie tone and are a little something more than the usual “monster movie”.

First up is Alligator from 1980 which stars Robert Forster of all people. It plays more like a cop drama and that’s probably why it stands out all these years later. You’ll soon find out why Quintin Tarantino cast Forster in Jackie Brown because of this movie.

The Superhero Pantheon- Giant Sized Summer Annual: Spider-Man: No Way Home

Jerome and Brian have decided to bring back here at the end of August to discuss a personal favorite, 2021’s Spider-Man: No Way Home.

They go through the usual categories and what this movie meant for the actors, the MCU, and society at-large given the box office in a COVID world. Find out whether they finally take advantage of their power and take some responsibility to put a live action Spider-Man movie into the Superhero Pantheon.

Pantheon Plus – Franchise Rankings: Mission Impossible

In the month of August, Jerome and Brian are going to be ranking some of their favorite franchises. This week, Jerome and Brian have accepted their mission to rank the Mission Impossible movies.
