Your three favorite millennials are back from the holiday to talk about the box offfice blame assigned to Rotten Tomatoes, which Hollywood executives say is the cause for a poor summer movie season.

Inspired by Hoai-Tran's recent article at /Film about Summer Movies, we discuss and argue if this has been the best summer movie season in decades. It could be even argued that July was the best month for summer movies in decades. There were more great, mid-budget films that did well than the traditional sequels and blockbusters. Is this the start of a trend or a fluke?

Inspired by the success of "Wonder Woman," your three favorite millennials are here to discuss more wonder women they'd like to see on and behind the camera. This is a really great episode for recommendations of female characters and female directors - and a great conversation on just why we need more stories on screen about women by women.

Your three favorite millennials review 'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2' a disappointing follow-up to the original surprise hit.
