Fireside-"LOKI" S02E01 Review, "Daredevil: Born Again" Creative Reboot?!
I am so sorry for the quality of this episode, I was undergoing some technical difficulties with my microphone and decided to not deal with it. Regardless, I am back! Back behind the mic and ready to rock your ear senses! I talk about the trailers for John Woo's SILENT NIGHT, the Eli Roth slasher THANKSGIVING, the Jason Statham-led THE BEEKEEPER, and the A24 biographical sports film THE IRON CLAW. They all have really good trailers and excite me for the rest of the year. I go through THR's article on DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN being retooled after some internal restructuring and a new focus. Its a really interesting and informative read that really got me excited to talk about it. Finally, I review the JOHN WICK spinoff series THE CONTINENTAL, currently streaming on Peacock, and the start to Marvel Studios' latest show LOKI Season 2 Episode 1.
