3BG At The Movies | Nobody 2
3BlackGeeks Podcast
#Nobody2 #BobOdenkirk #RZA #SharonStone The first film was a lowkey surprise hit that much like the John Wick films captured the over the top insanity from the story to the characters. So here we are with the sequel which does what most sequels do which is give you bigger action and even more insane characters. Yet through all of it, Bob Odenkirk sells you on a guy who, much like Jackie Chan, doesn't want any trouble and wants to just spend time with his family on vacation.

3BG At The Movies | Highest 2 Lowest
3BlackGeeks Podcast
#Highest2Lowest #DenzelWashington #SpikeLee #AkiraKurosawa #HighAndLow #A24 Spike did what we wanted him to do which is tell a Kurosawa story with Black folk. And he did while really letting the movie ooze in its New Yorkness. The movie overall is a slow burn with a good story and great acting. On its own, its a very good original movie but at the same time it manages to mix in elements from the Kurasawa original film.

3BGPodcast| Rover Dangerfield
3BlackGeeks Podcast
Rodney Dangerfield wanted to be a cartoon character. Warner Bros. was like "BET!" and made him one. The problem was they didn't want to sell a Rated R cartoon, this was the 80s. Cartoon violence sure but God forbid they cuss. So they made it Rated G. ...Yup. But here's the puzzling part. What kid asked for this?

Superman | 3BG At the Movies
3BlackGeeks Podcast
#Superman #JamesGunn #DCcomics #DCstudios #WarnerBros James Gunn's Superman is the type of optimistic movie thats needed. In a period of time where society at large is very cynical all around, we have a movie that is 100% pure wholesome comic book fun. A Superman film that is basically like watching the live action version of the Bruce Timm Superman the Animated Series. This movie keeps you invested from its opening scene all the way to the end of the film. At a brisk 2 hours, you'll come away wanting to see it again and also come back to this brand new DC world that the movie establishes....
