Ep. 055 - Gods of Egypt
Description
For March 1st, 2016, Mike, Red and Scott meet in the Nostromo Lounge and discuss whether or not Hugh Jackman's boxing skills can live up to his fathering skills in REAL STEEL; a mutated cybernetic love child of Transformers & Rocky, the thoroughly dismal effort on display in CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON 2 stumbles in mid-air, Red breaks down the religious themes in the last Proyas film KNOWING starring the One True God, tsunami waves of R-rated superhero films appear in the distance as the big studios continue to drool over DEADPOOL and his insane box office success, an absolutely essential rewatch is necessary for the 1984 cult classic (and Criterion signature release) REPO MAN starring Emilio Estevez, the Griswolds and the Gremlins crash the Christmas party in the surprisingly watchable KRAMPUS, and much,much more before our featured review of the brand new historical documentary GODS OF EGYPT from director Alex Proyas.
