Mike & Matt Write Words: Six Questions About The 2017 Comic Book Movies
Mike and Matt like to talk to each other on Skype about comic book movies and then subject dozens upon dozens of people to their conversations. However, they are also occasionally capable of doing more. They are also occasionally capable of writing things, including – but not limited to – words.
With comic book movies being big and fun and a passion for us, we thought it would be a great idea to try to get some hits on this fine website by previewing the big comic book movies coming out in 2017. Continue reading Mike & Matt Write Words: Six Questions About The 2017 Comic Book Movies
The Tape Crusaders: Episode #8 – Batman V Superman & Suicide Squad
Zack Snyder, baby! No fun allowed! No jokes! Instead, we just get nonsensical stories, half-baked twists, and unlikable or useless characters! This is fine. Continue reading The Tape Crusaders: Episode #8 – Batman V Superman & Suicide Squad
