Flix And A Six

Back from a holiday, we have something we think you’ll really like. We sure did. But first, old news. The Walking Dead Comic ends, Knives Out debuts its trailer, JA Bayona is involved with Lord of the Rings, and much more. Plus the long awaited (spoiler free!) review of The Leftovers. Follow your Peter Tingle and listen.

Back and better than ever. We do our best (see: worst…. wurst?…. wort, nailed it) work after a break, and this is Exhibit A. Not much news — except for the Netflix darling “I Think You Should Leave” — but a million nuggets, as many tangents, some anecdotes, and What We’re Watching. You’ve got a friend in us.

Thanks to Spinchoon co-founder Brian Rooney for guest hosting with us this week (and check out his written review for this movie on The Spinchoon). He’s been a content machine. We eschew our typical new/notes segment for a brief chat about Dr. Sleep and a very substantial report on what interests us from EA Play and E3. So come on down, stop on by, hop a carpet and fly, to another Arabian night.

Long awaited, we’re finally back in the Wickiverse… right. We have to make up for old news and nuggets, but that’s fine, since it’s Star Wars, New New Batman, Dark Fat, Last Blood Part One, the newest nightmare from the unholy alliance of Hideo Kojima and Guillermo Del Toro, and more! No time for dilly dally, Mr Wick.

Thrones. Pokemon. Shenanigans. No news or nuggets this week, as our concluding thoughts on Game of Thrones takes precedent. Pika Pika!

It’s a good thing we recorded this early to accommodate our busy schedules…. only to promptly screw up and release it late anyway. Moving on! We give out compulsory Star Wars nuggets to build the anticipation, tip our caps to the end of Veep, give some penultimate thrones taeks (that got out of date quick), and talk some Batman (non-Patinson division). Never give up! Never surrender!

It is so very frustrating to me that we did ’89 Batman on Episode 88. It’s OK because we had so damn much fun with it. Just as we enjoyed our time discussing trailers for IT Chapter 2 and Spiderman: Far From Home, brewery mergers, the next decade of blockbuster movie releases, and more. So if you want to get nuts, let’s get nuts!

Back on track with a throwback; an underrated movie from a former star of the turn of the century; signified by one appropriate use of a semi-colon, and one that is completely unnecessary. First, we have to tackle a bevy of trailers, some spoiler free Game of Thrones talk, the brilliance of Billions, and more. Make a wish and join us in this fantasy.

No preamble necessary. Let’s get into it. Thanks to Brian Rooney for finally joining the show.

The 3rd annual Easter episode of Flix and a Six has some new aspects to it. First: a comedy classic from the 90’s. Second: an expanded peanut gallery, bordering on full blown round table discussion. Our thanks to recurring guest co-host Dominick, and to first time guest, our biggest fan, Mike. Enjoy!

Sorry for the week off. It will happen again. But not right now, and we more than make it up to you, as we crush a news & nuggets section featuring Star Wars, more Star Wars, and some more Star Wars after that. There’s also MCU Phase 4 rumblings, Dark Phoenix trailer talk, and much more. Then more Sta- I mean we get to the movie, which we cover only as we can. Just say the magic word and we’ll appear.

Our thanks to returning guest host Dominick Biolsi, even if he was only half there, and half asleep. We promise to keep you awake with wonderful news and nuggets about the Joker, Child’s play, Endgame updates, Jim Carrey in a most ridiculous role, and much more. So gear up and follow along. Movie: Triple Frontier Beer: Stone Hop Revolver IPA

OOOOOOhhhhhh boy. Us. You know you’re here for it. It’s bat shit crazy. Listen to us talk about it, and a shit ton of other things you know you’re here for. There’s Star Wars. There’s Endgame. There’s a narrative that is, finally, well and truly killed. And there’s something new we’re watching. So find your better self and listen. Movie: Us Beer: 4 Noses Brewing Company Pump Action Imperial Pumpkin Ale

BIG NEWS ALERT!!! Before we get into the standard episode fare, we have an important announcement to make. The Spinchoon is launching another podcast: The Spinchoon Sports Show. Al will be one of the co-hosts there, as well as new ‘Choon, Mike Schaeffer. SO go check that out if you like fun and beer and sports (We know you like at least 2 of those). Also, as you can tell here, we’re leaving Souncloud very soon, so plan accordingly. Both shows are still gonna be basically everywhere else you can find podcasts. So let’s have some fun with it! Back to your regularly scheduled synopsis. This one is PRETTY damn good. Alita: Battle Angel, John Wick, Delicious Beer, James Gunn, What we’re watching and playing, Nolan Movie 2020, Star Wars??, and much more. So motor(ball) over and listen! Movie: Alita: Battle Angel (Movie starts at 1:10) Beer: 21st Amendment Brewery Back in Black (Black IPA)

We’re back in the MCU with a throwback origin movie, priming ourselves for the main event next month. It’s good to be back in our element, in more ways than one, as this is a looooong episode for you. It’s not just a full Captain Marvel discussion; the long awaited Sopranos review, the definitive(-ish) list of the Keanu action movie catalog, MCU trailer and Phase 4 news, and more make the cut. So load your Walkman with the latest show! Movie: Captain Marvel (Movie starts at 1:22) Beer: Otter Creek Brewing Co Backseat Berner IPA

We’re back off our post-Oscars hangover, recharged and ready to go (even if Al’s internet couldn’t handle the heat). We have something a little different this week; a new take on the gambler’s journey. But first, we sample some excellent beer goodness, catch you up on some news, nuggets, and more, and just catch up. We’re all in on this week’s episode. Movie: Win it All Beer: Southern Tier Nu Skool IPA

Who will win? Well, we have no idea, but we’re gonna guess anyway. We’re just here for some fun. It’s our first edition of Flix & a Whisk, the calm, cool, collected cousin of your customary favorite show.

Continue at your own peril…. Not with this episode, of course, we bring it as always. But that movie… yikes. In more entertaining news, we’ll bring you some entertainment news, kill a narrative, discuss kidnapping, and much more. I wish I had something creative to say about the movie here, but I just don’t. Movie: Roma Beer: Bull & Barrel Country Bumpkin Pumpkin

From the inconsistent mind of M. Night Shyamalan, the conclusion to the accidental trilogy nearly two decades in the making. The only thing more surprising than one of the (ubiquitous) twists in this movie, is that we disagreed so substantially in our views on this movie. Thankfully, we do agree on delicious beer, of which there is much discussion, and we get back in action with some trailers, anticipation, and more. This is no Origin Story, and it's definitely not a Limited Run.  Movie: Glass (movie starts at 0:38) Beer: Cypress Brewing Co Lighthouse

WOO! (Cult) Classic movie alert! Enough said about that; you're either in or out. Quick and dirty here, we have a great movie, Oscar Nom's, Soprano's Movie and Zombieland 2 news. Let's do it. Beer: Jersey Girl Brewing Co Sun Kissed Citra IPA Movie: The Boondock Saints (Starts at 0:47)
