Recorded March 22^nd, 2015.

Discussion:

“Star Wars: Rogue One” news! We tell you what we know, which isn’t much, admittedly.

New trailers for “Avengers: Age of Ultron” and “Mission Impossible: Rouge Nation” hit the internet. Go watch them! We hope you aren’t disappointed. If you are, remember, we had nothing to do with them.

Seen:

Andrew re-watches “Marvel’s the Avengers” with #1 Fan Adria. He re-experiences the joy of the movie with someone who had never seen it before.

Christopher loves “Helix” and “Twelve Monkeys” . The former is still filled with rupturing pustules.

Patrick sees “Insurgent”. The filmmakers had more money to spend this time around.

Read:

Andrew and Christopher are current with “Thor” and “Batman Eternal”. Both have very strong recent issues. “Batman Eternal” revealed its “Big Bad”, we aren’t disappointed.

Christopher recommends “Leviathan Wakes” by James S.A. Corey. He is enthralled.

Patrick calls “A Dance with Dragons” the best novel of “A Song of Ice and Fire” series.

The Brothers dissect a pivotal scene in “Dune.” Andrew is honestly amazed with the novel.

Played:

Andrew plays “Destiny”. Everyone is shocked.

Christopher has become enamored with the side scrolling platformer “Ori and the Blind Forest”. He calls it the most beautiful game he has ever played.

Patrick describes the ease and addictiveness and math skills required for “Oregon Settler”. He swears it’s actually fun.

Trivia:

Who has the most Twitter followers in the world?

The Boys need several hints.

Episode 30 – “I have been, and always shall be, your friend.”
recorded March 1, 2015
We discuss the passing of Leonard Nimoy, a great artist and cultural icon.
We examine his legacy in our lives and the impact of his work.

Seen
Christopher continues to re-watch “Stargate SG1” with his wife, Susan. He also watched “Batman/Superman: Public Enemies”, the animated DC feature. He is surprised with how entertaining it is.
Andrew re-watches “Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan”. All agree it holds up very nicely and Nimoy’s performance is perfect.
Patrick and Andrew finish season 1 of “Agent Carter” and wish it had finished a little bigger and bolder.
Read
Christopher is current with “Batman Eternal”, “Thor”, and has started “Star Wars: Darth Vader” “Vader” might be the best of the newly launched Marvel Star Wars comics.

Andrew is also current with “Batman Eternal”. His reading of “Dune” has slowed due to technical issues. He plans to follow “Dune” with “The Martian” and then give “Master and Commander” another try.
Patrick is 7 hours in the 48,920 hours of “A Dance with Dragons”. He is already in love, far and away better than “A Feast for Crows”.

Played
Christopher has been grinding on “Destiny”, leveling a Warlock. He plays “Evolve” and continues to be bad at it. He had downloaded “Clash of Clans” and it is a welcome diversion.
Andrew plays “Destiny” with Christopher just today. He reports on Daily Heroic Story “The Wakening”. He will start a Hunter and begin leveling in the near future.
Patrick-attempted to play “Destiny” but encountered major connectivity issues. He downloaded the mobile game “Oregon Trail: American Settler”. It is a sequel of sorts to the game we all loved as kids. He feels a kinship to it as he himself is a settler of Oregon.
Special Report: Christopher’s daughter Kristin reports on Supernatural-Con, she fan-girls. She reports on the “specialty convention experience”.

Trivia:

Which Harry Potter novel has sold the most copies, and how many?

The Boys are surprised with the correct answers.

Warning, we were having some internet problems while recording, so sorry for the poor quality and the choppiness, we suspect Hydra of this wrong doing of coarse

Seen:

“Jupiter Ascending” discussion. All argue; hilarity and hurt feelings happen in equal measure.

Chris is binge-watching “Spartacus: Blood and Sand” which is really quite entertaining, hyper violence and hyper T&A.

Read:

Andrew is current with “Batman: Eternal”. The series is wrapping up in the next few weeks and he is excited to see how it resolves.

Christopher is only slightly behind with “B.E” and is re-listening to the Dresden Files for the third time. They are his go-to audio books for the car.

Patrick has downloaded “A Dance with Dragons” on Audible. It is almost as long as Britney Spears’s first marriage.

Played:

Destiny Weekly Nightfall Stike is run by the Brothers Geek Fire-Team. We got that radiance!

Christopher plays “Evolve”. The game’s Monster vs Hunters clashes are satisfying, the controls are not immediately intuitive though.

Patrick plays “Forbidden Island”. His board game foray continues. He hasn’t encounterred a bad one yet.

Trivia:

Name all of Lord Voldemort’s Horcruxes. It’s too easy again.
