The musical sensation that blew up the Broadway scene is now conveniently located on Disney+ to watch comfortably in your PJs. We take a look at Hamilton, Lin-Manuel Miranda's groundbreaking and wildly popular musical about about a life of Alexander Hamilton and the founding fathers told through a hip hop-inspired soundtrack. But is it as good as it's hyped up to be? And is it better than Michael Bay's Transformers? Let's find out!

But has history been overly harsh toward these movies?

Sure, it got released on VOD but this is the closest to a big movie release we've had in what feels like forever! This week we're looking at Judd Apatow's King of Staten Island, the semi-autobiographical dramedy about a very Pete Davidson-like protagonist trying to get his life together. It's got Bill Burr, Marisa Tomei, and a lot of tattoos. But is it better than Transformers?

It's the end of a millennium, The Matrix has stolen the collective imagination of America (along with a bunch of anime imagery), and Napster has both revolutionized music and royally pissed off Lars Ulrich. This year was such a hugely influential year for movies that even titles that weren't huge successes at the time have gone to become indisputable classics (e.g. Fight Club). We're determined dig even deeper to find some truly underrated and forgotten gems and party like Prince would have wanted us to.

With the announcement of the Snyder Cut of Justice League, we thought it would be a good time to revisit the original "Snyder Cut" - Batman v Superman: The Ultimate Edition. After a critical panning of the theatrical release of BvS, an additional 30 minutes of runtime were added to the "Ultimate" cut to add new storylines, new characters, and additional context. But is this cut really an improvement? And is it better than Transformers?

The final season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars is out and we've been excited for any excuse to talk about it. Since 2008, this series has been delighting Star Wars fans by taking the bones George Lucas put in place with the prequels and expanding it into a fully-realized mythology of it's own. The final season looks to bring fans more of what they've come to love and put a cherry on top of this beloved series and we can't wait to dive into it with you!

To celebrate our own 100th episode, we're taking a look at some other notable 100th episodes of our favorite TV shows.
