If you thought this terror train was coming into the station at the end of October, you're sadly mistaken. Episode 5 of the Spooktacular is underway! And this time we're heading under France into some of the tightest spots the catacombs have to offer. This claustrophobic haunt is a hidden gem of the found footage subgenre and it has so much to offer. Just think of the Blair Witch on steroids and pack it tightly in the literal Parisian underbelly. Join Ron and Adam as they carefully squeeze through this mix of adventure and fright in the latest installment of the ongoing spooktacular in this episode of the CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
It's week 4 of the Spooktacular and we're off to not-so-sunny Seattle in search of a killer VHS tape! For those of you unfamiliar with VHS, it's how we watched movies back in the day. But a movie that kills you in 7 days is not for the faint of heart. In this installment our Cinemasters are taking on the 2002 US iteration of The Ring. Ron and Adam will introduce you to Rachel, Noah, and Aidan, the second creepiest kid in this movie, as we press on with another frightening feature. Just to be safe you'd better make a copy of this podcast and share it with a friend. So unplug the Magnavox and disconnect the rotary phone as you enjoy this week's episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!.
I see you've braved our first two episodes and are back for a third in this year's Spooktacular. This one certainly is a treat as well. If you've ever been left alone in a room with a fair skinned, ginger haired doll then you've certainly felt that spine tingle that only Chucky can bring. In the highly anticipated sequel to the original Child's Play, The Lakeshore Strangler turned killer doll is back and searching for little Andy Barclay once again. Ron and Adam sit down to discuss this film but as per usual, they give plenty of extra insight into the entire Chucky franchise. So put on your Good Guy overalls, make sure your voodoo skills are up to snuff and enjoy this installment of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
Episode two of the third annual Spooktakular means spooky season is in full effect. This week is Adam's first pick with the 2013 mumblegore indie flick “You're Next”. Our Cinemasters both have fresh takes on this film and especially it's Australian Final Girl, Erin. With crossbows and grown up Home Alone traps in place, the boys will negotiate some grisly endings for some very unlikable characters as they dissect this film for you. So grab a meat tenderizer, stay away from the windows and strap in for another extra scary installment of the CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
It's officially the 3rd Annual Cinemasters Spooktacular! Welcome to our first installment of this year's haunting selection of films. We are kicking it off with Ron's pick of a 2022 horror flick by the esteemed Jordan Peele, “Nope”.

But before we bust out the pumpkin spice, we've got one last summer hurrah to cover.

Ron took the fam on a trip down to the Magic Kingdom and experienced some cinematic elements brought to life. Meanwhile, Adam explored an unknown region of social media and fell down the rabbit hole of MovieTok and got hooked on steelbooks.

It's the go to space spoof with quotable lines you might even recognize in our theme song! Brook teams up with comedy legends John Candy and Rick Moranis to bring you Spaceballs!

The month of movies we love is in full effect now, Cinemaster fans! We are back with our second installment and this time around we are talking the Cult Classic film from 2001, Donnie Darko. A breakthrough performance for Jake Gyllenhaal that enthralled a generation of movie lovers with its intricate twists and turns through complex topics like tangent universes, time travel and Sparkle Motion. Make sure no one has any reason to doubt your commitment to the Cinemasters by tuning in for this episode where we discuss trivia, tunes and 6 foot tall imaginary rabbits.

Welcome back Cinemaster Fans! After an extended hiatus of 8 seasons in the Octagon, we have returned and are coming out of the gate hot with tot action! We've got all the chapstick your lips can take no matter how bad they hurt and these AREN'T from the school nurse's desk.

So grab your boondoggle keychain (a MUST have for this season's fashion), hop on your Huffy Sledgehammer and fix yourself a dang quesadilla as our Cinemasters run through their favorite moments in this oh so quotable gem.

Welcome Back Cinefansters to a very special episode of the Cinemasters of the Universe! This episode is definitely pulling out all the stops by bringing in not one, but two guest Cinemasters. The Bitgeek Podcast's Prince of Pixels, Nick Wright, lends his extensive Ghostbusters expertise as he weighs in on his impression of the new film. Plus the debut of Junior Cinemaster, Logan Avis, the rightful heir to the Rental Kingdom. I suppose that makes him the Rental Prince. Sure is an awful lot of royalty in this particular episode. Join all four of our Cinemasters as they talk shop and their individual impressions of this long awaited sequel to the original franchise entries 30 years in the making. A word to the wise, though, if you've not seen the film yet, there are plenty of spoilers so make sure you check it out before you give the guys a listen. So strap on your Proton Pack, crank up that Ray Parker Jr. and hop in that Ecto-1 gunner seat as we bust all the ghosts in this brand new episode of the CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
Hey there horror fans and welcome back to the 4th installment of this year's Cinemasters Spooktacular! This week Ron and Adam will be bringing a 1990 forgotten classic back to life as they discuss the heart pounding thriller, “Flatliners”. What happens when we die or more importantly, what comes with us if we don't follow the light into the tunnel but come back to life? Our Cinemasters will see how some of the hottest up and coming stars of the early 90's tackle this question as they try not to get a severe beating from a very deceased Billy Mahoney. Place your bets on how long you can ride out that flat line in this latest installment of the CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
We'd like to play a game, Cinemaster fans. We're midway through the Cinemasters Spooktacular II and it looks like we just woke up in a creepy bathroom chained to a pipe so that must mean we're talking all things Saw this week! Back again but driving the podcast-mobile this week is Monster Mash Mercer and he's got all the inside info from James Wan's directorial debut. With Ron and Adam by his side you're certainly in for more treats than tricks but that doesn't mean you're in the clear just yet. There might even be some Jigsaw level hijinx in this podcast that you'll have to look out for. If you want to find out just what's in store then pop that little tape in and press play on this week's episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
Welcome back ghouls and boys to the second installment of this year's Cinemaster's Spooktacular! This week we travel to a small town in New York for one of the most haunted houses ever immortalized on the silver SCREAM! That's right it's The Amityville Horror. But since we're kicking things up a notch this year we're not just doing one movie, we're doing the original AND the remake. Two times the haunting for the price of one. And if that weren't enough, this week Ron and Adam are joined by the mysteriously monstrous Matt Mercer! Double the movies and triple the Cinemasters means you're getting the most bang for your buck, just like that Lutz family that moved into 112 Ocean Avenue. So grab your crucifix and your flyswatter and buckle up for another terrifying episode of the CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
Welcome to the official 2021 Cinemaster SPOOKTAKULAR! In our first installment at our long anticipated salute to scary movies. It's officially Halloween season so we're heading to outer space where no one can hear you scream! Join Ron and Adam as they discuss the fate of the Nostromo when it takes a detour to investigate a potential distress signal. Amidst the blinking lights and space sounds we get our very first look at the dreaded Xenomorph in this Ridley Scott epic.

So make sure you lock all the doors and windows, turn on all the lights and tune in to this year's opening episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE SPOOKTAKULAR!!!
Well hey there friends. It's another casual gathering around the old water cooler for a bit of movie news and opinions in the most chill way we can think to present it. This installment kicks off with some unfortunately sad news with the passing of a comedy giant, Norm MacDonald. Ron and Adam share their thoughts on some of his most notable appearances, roles and material he's left behind for all of us. But it's not all bad news. There's other things in store and even a bit of a peak at the upcoming Cinemasters Spooktacular which debuts at the end of September. So sit back with your tall glass of chilled spring water and listen in to this episode of the CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
Oh hey there friends. Welcome back to another fun little installment of Cinemasters. We're kind of low key today. Just some friendly water cooler talk. Kind of like a fireside chat but with more casual beverages and movie news with less spirited libations and singular movie focus. From time to time our Cinemasters will be dropping these little updates as necessary. The movie industry is an ever changing one given the state of the world right now. From scheduling changes to studio bulletins, The Rental King and Nighthawk will be chiming in with their two cents on everything that's bubbling up around the proverbial office. So sit back and enjoy an abbreviated episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
What do you get when you cross a Troma director with a penchant for R rated shenanigans with an amazing cast of some of the worst (in EVERY sense of the word) bad guys that DC ever cooked up? The answer is the best damn Suicide Squad movie there is. Welcome back Cinemaster fans! This time around we're sitting in with Ron and Adam as they talk about a new movie still in theaters. So this should serve as your SPOILERS WARNING! Our Cinemasters will be talking about the movie in detail so if you've not seen the flick yet just know they both HIGHLY endorse it and have enjoyed it probably close to 10 times or more between the two of them. So grab your tiny bullets, your toilet seat helmet and your completely misguided sense of how far you'd go for liberty and enjoy this new episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
Gather ‘round Cinemaster fans and get toasty by the crackling flames as we enjoy our second Fireside Chat! This time we will be discussing the Schwarzenegger classic, “Terminator 2”. Sit in with Ron and Adam as they speak fondly of this summer blockbuster in the follow up half to our most recent series. Comfy in their velvet clad wingback chairs, clad in the classiest of smoking jackets, the Cinemasters will cover time travel, tasteful nudity, and vehicles that start by slightly lowering the driver side visor while simultaneously playing “Bad to the Bone” by George Thorogood and the Destroyers. The conversations will jubilantly bounce around from topic to topic and you'll even get some added bonus banter in the last third of the podcast. So give me your clothes, your boots and your motorcycle (so you can't go anywhere) and enjoy this episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
Welcome Back loyal fans! Summer time has always meant one thing to movie lovers: The Blockbuster! It's been a while since we've had a real iconic summer blockbuster, especially since the summer movie season starts in early spring, anymore. Come join Ron “The Rental King” Avis and Adam “Nighthawk Peterson as they casually meander through their first ever “Fireside Chat” and talk about a beloved classic, Jurassic Park. This Speilbergian gem from the early 90's is a pillar in the blockbuster community and one that has brought cinematic wonder to multiple generations now. Hear the Cinemasters regale you with their experiences with the film, insights on the character and plot and a good bit of entertaining banter to bring it all together on this episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
If you arrive at a four way stop with a Cinemaster to your left and one to your right and Billy Ocean directly across from you, who has the right of way? As long as you're one of the Corey's in a mint green Cadillac then the answer is most definitely you! This week Ron and Adam get into the 1988 coming of age classic “License to Drive” featuring the iconic Corey Haim and Corey Feldman. To be 16 again and chasing that coveted driver's license is something a lot of us can relate to. Our Cinemasters also give a hefty salute to Richard Masur as a true “Rad Dad” of cinema in the month of June. So get out of your dreams, hop into the car with Ron, Adam and Billy Ocean and see what this classic 80's comedy is all about in this episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
Round two of our Movies that May have aged well is back in full effect and this time our Cinemasters are taking on the 1991 “cult” classic of imaginary proportions, “Drop Dead Fred”. Is this film the ultimate definition of childhood friends only you could see or perhaps a precursor to a Tyler Durden fever dream. Ron and Adam will weigh in on all things Fred in this installment and help us understand why anyone would live on a paddleboat, get a mommy and me makeover or date Tim Matheson in general. To see how things turn out for young Lizzie and her larger than life best bud, Fred, you’ll have to tune in to this episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
Vice Versa Summary Welcome Cinemaster fans to the first episode of our “Movies that May not have aged well”. In this installment we have a very special guest returning to join Ron and Adam. White Machete sit’s in to discuss the 1988 body swap classic “Vice Versa”. Our three Cinemasters discuss the ups and downs of the adventures of Judge Reinhold as Fred Savage and Fred Savage as Judge Reinhold. Two fish out of water just trying to figure out how to get back. Between sweet drum solos, mysterious skulls and awkward “Mony, Mony” montages, our Cinemasters break down this flick to find out whether it does hold up or not. Curious to see how things end up? You’ll just have to listen in on this episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
Let’s finish out our month of Fools with Mike Judge’s dynamically dumb duo of Beavis and Butt-head as they “do” America. Charged up with 90’s MTV nostalgia and nary a brain cell between the pair, these animated fools awkwardly giggle through 81 minutes of double entendres in hopes of one big score and a new television set. Add in a bevy of celebrity voices, a Rob Zombie musical interlude and enough cavity searches to bankrupt the American Dental Association and you’ve got a modern classic for the ages. Join our Ron and Adam for one final bout of foolishness in this episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
Hey there Cinemaster fans and thanks for coming back to episode 3 of our April Fools series we’re in. This week we are looking at the 1979 Steve Martin classic “The Jerk”. Join Adam and Ron as they walk through this flick from humble beginnings in Mississippi to the height of wealth in this rags to riches tale of Navin R. Johnson. From guessing weight in a carnival to the spontaneous publicity of seeing his name in print at Hartounian’s Gas Station, Navin lives a very interesting life and our Cinemasters will be right there to walk through the highs and lows. So grab your Mr. Bubbles and settle into the tub for another foolish episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
ULTRAVIOLET RAYS BAD. CINEMASTERS GOOD. Welcome back to the CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE continuing with our April tribute to "fools". This week Ron picked one of the 90's most prolific fools, Adam Sandler, in his breakout feature film 'Billy Madison'.
Welcome to April, Cinemaster fans! It’s the month we celebrate fools. First up on our list is the immortal physical comedian from SNL fame, Chris Farley in his most iconic role of all time. Sandusky’s favorite son and heir to the Callahan auto parts empire, this 7 year Marquette grad has to wrestle with real life when his father leaves him too soon. Coupled with long time SNL alum and friend, David Spade, we cover all things Farley and Tommy Boy in this first installment in our month long tribute to fools.
The show 35 years in the making. BitGeek co-hosts Nick and Ron have special guest Martin Reimer on the show to discuss everybody's favorite Hylian hero, Link, and his many, many, MANY great adventures spanning four decades. At the top of the show the guys discuss each Zelda game along with personal anecdotes from each release and along the way figure out exactly when we fell in love with Nintendo's second biggest video game franchise, just in time for the big 35. Also we give Zelda the official BitGeek Top 10 ranking treatment and do a little show and share with some of our favorite Zelda memorabilia to wrap things up.
As in true Cinemaster fashion we are better late than never. Finishing out our week 4 of our love affair with movies is our episode dedicated to the Merc with a Mouth, Wade W Wilson of Regina, Saskatchewan, also known as Deadpool. Ron and Adam cover this movie as well as a number of other Marvel properties past, present, and future as they enjoy various parts of the plot and characters in the film. As a special treat, Ron surprises Adam with a bonus round of Trivia Junket so you’ll have to listen to see how Adam does with everything on the line. Will he maintain his title as Deadpool Fan #1 or will he cause Ryan Reynolds to publicly disown him. You’ll have to tune in and listen to the latest episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
Hey there Cinemaster fans, we’re back with our third installment of our love affair with movies. Through the month of February we are picking movies we just love for one reason or another and are sharing them with you. This week is Ron’s second pick, the 1989 Richard Pryor and Gene WIlder classic “See No Evil, Hear No Evil”. Our Cinemasters will walk you through the nuts and bolts of this comedy classic and share their fun takes on some of the goofy things a plucky blind man with a penchant for punching will do and a cautious deaf guy will say trying to keep them both from ending up in the penitentiary for a murder they didn’t commit. Hilarity ensues as these two legends light up the screen with their physical humor as well as razor sharp wit. Also featuring a young and slightly deformed Kevin Spacey and the always stunning Joan Severance, this film is a treasure from the past that our Cinemasters dug up, dusted off and served up just for you in this latest installment of the CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!
Welcome Back Cinemasters Fans. We are back for week 2 of our February affair with movies we love. This is Adam’s pick and is near and dear to his heart. We’ve all grown to enjoy Adam’s affinity for all things Jimmy Stewart. This week we delve into his favorite flick from Mr. Stewart called “Harvey”. Its a classic film from the golden age of black and white cinema. So strap in with the Rental King and Nighthawk of the North as we sit down and talk Elwood P. Dowd and his 6 foot tall rabbit friend, Harvey in this brand new episode of the CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!
"GODS OF WAR!!!! may your hammer be mighty." Welcome back to another episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE and since February is the month of love we're going to present four movies we have a love affair with, kicking off with Ron's pick: the 2007 Lonely Island (and perhaps more so Adam Sandburg) vehicle, 'Hot Rod'. Hot Rod is an underdog tale about a young 'boy' that wants to be a stung man just like his deceased dad and clearly has some issues with his new step father, Frank. But to earn Frank's love and respect, he must first beat his ass in a fight! Problem is, Frank (played by Ian McShane) has a sick heart and needs $50,000 to afford a heart transplant. Thankfully for him, Rod, along with his intrepid crew, are up to the task of earning the dough and helping Frank get better....and Rod can once again go back to trying to kick his ass.A silly movie to be sure, but you need to listen to this show to understand just how underrated a movie it really is.
Hey there movie monsters and welcome to our final October episode. To do Halloween the right way we decided to go extremely meta and dedicate our Halloween episode to the movie Halloween. And if that wasn’t kicking it up enough, we pulled out the rest of the stops and brought out the White Machete! In this very special Spooktakular finale we put all three of our horror-rific heads together and break down the initial iteration of the 70’s slasher extraordinaire, Michael Myers. So turn off the lights, grab that leftover trick or treat candy and fill your ears with the Cinemasters instead of those bump in the night noises. See if you can survive in Haddonfield in this episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
Since it’s Halloween, we have to push the envelope a little bit. We figured the best way to amp up the podcast this week is to bring back a familiar voice (since you can’t see our faces now anyway, stupid pandemic) to help us break down the 1987 Canadian Horror Classic, “The Gate”. Matt Mercer Joins us to discuss all things demonic for a young Stephen Dorff as he and his north of the border cohorts attempt to dispatch an unholy series of little men in rubber suits trying to eat Louis Tripp. We will cover house parties, metric conversions and the best hairstyles the 80’s had to offer. You’ll get 50% more Cinemaster in this episode and its absolutely free! All you have to do is tune in to this Spooktacular episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
Welcome back for week two of our Spooktacular series this October of all things scary. This time around is Adam’s pick and he’s bringing us his favorite flick from an old school master of thrills and chills, Alfred Hitchock himself. There’s no creepy shower scenes or avian infestations this time around though. This time the scares come from what happens right outside your window. Your “Rear Window” that is. Our Cinemasters take a look and break down the slow burn of the 1954 Jimmy Stewart/Grace Kelly classic look at the crossroads of voyeurism and murder. So grab your binoculars and see if you spy the suspense in this episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!
October means one thing when it comes to the Cinemasters...Halloween. This year we are bringing you 4 specially designed episodes to bring the terror. Week 1 is Ron’s first pick and we kick it off with a powerhouse when it comes to all things horror. Think red and green sweater, knives for fingers and he’ll get you when the caffeine runs out. That’s right its Freddy Kruger in the best of all the NIghtmare on Elm Street sequels, numero tres: The Dream Warriors. This week we will deep dive into Westin Hills darkest dreams and go toe to toe with the most famous burn victim the silver screen has ever known. So pop in your air pods, sync up the bluetooth speaker and prepare yourself for the CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!
It’s a movie that’s been 29 years in the making. And because this year feels like it will never end, it also feels like it’s been 29 years since you’ve seen the Cinemasters. But now, their most triumphant return comes together in a truly glorious and entirely excellent fashion. That’s right kids, the Cinemasters are back and it is 100% all about Bill and Ted Face the Music! After a summer hiatus because, let’s face our own music that everything in the world is just the tiniest bit bogus, our heroes are back to talk all things Bill S. Preston Esquire and Ted “Theodore” Logan. So hop in your phone booth with your copy of Battleship and head to the Circle K and hang with our favorite film fanatics the CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!
Trivia fans, come on down! It’s time for another episode featuring one of our absolute favorite things to do and that is test our collective movie knowledge. We are back again with another round of questions for each other to see just how much of a mastery we have on the cinema. As it stands we are tied with one win a piece and a couple of draws under our belt. We always have a lot of fun coming up with, asking and answering the questions and this episode was particularly fun to make. As usual, we have no idea what the topics are ahead of time and we simply have to do our best to get as many correct answers as we can. Will there be a new champion? Will we face off and have another tie? Will we get all of them wrong and be forced into humiliation and stop doing this forever? The only way you’ll really be able to find out what happens is when you tune in and listen to this episode of the CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
Who are the best bad good guys in movies? Or are they the worst good bad guys? We’re not totally sure either but we do have a list of candidates we have put together of our favorite scoundrels, anti-heroes and reluctant good guys. Essentially they aren’t your typical, squeaky clean protagonists. But these guys get the job done with efforts that might be less than desirable in certain circumstances. From dark vigilantes to awkward uncles, we’ve got a great list of characters you’re definitely going to love. Join Ron and Adam as we champion the dark horse in these cinematic contests in this exciting new episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
Hey again there Cinemaster fans. We’re back with a different sort of program in these different kinds of times. In keeping with our updates on the Cinematic State of the Union we figured we would take on a review of the recently released on VOD Warner Brothers animated film “Scoob!” Its the latest iteration of a multi-decade franchise that generations have come to love of four teenage friends and their lovable pup mascot who have hit the big little screen once more. Ron and Adam were both able to take this new release on as it was first released and are giving you their thoughts on it. There may be a spoiler or two about some of the aspects of the film but the review is chock full of all sorts of wonderfulness. So be sure to tune in for this very special take on all things Scooby Dooby Doo in this episode of the CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
This one has been a long time coming, kids. We’ve run out of time for this on our last couple of recordings but we have finally gotten around to discussing these two films. And hopefully by now you’ve seen the epic Cinemasters parody commercial featuring the infamous “bicycle scene” in a Juicy Fruit gum commercial. This episode was particularly fun to make and we had a great time talking about these two films. Now you get to listen to us talk through the ups and downs of both films. You’ll have to tune in and find out what our final verdict is on each of these flicks and whether we recommend or not on this brand new episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
It's hard to believe it's been 40 years since the little yellow pizza with a missing slice first gobbled pellets in arcades, laundry mats and convenient stores, our homes and bed-spreads across America. The BitGeeks take a look at the mania that was Pac-Man in the 1980's.
Everybody loves a good movie quote. It’s like a secret language that only those who have seen a particular film can speak. Some quotes go far and wide for big blockbusters and others sneak by and are only caught on the radar of a select few for a cult classic. Whatever the quote is, we all have some that we hold near and dear to us. In this Feature Presentation the Cinemasters are bringing you 20 classic quotes that they love. Obviously this is a hard subject to whittle down to a top 10 so there’s no sense in painting ourselves into a corner. This is a subject we are just scratching the surface on and will be sure to revisit in the future.

We are firmly into the Cinematic desert we never thought we’d find ourselves in and there have been some adjustments in the landscape we’d like to discuss as a living record of our takes on these strange days. First we have to cover the battle of the industries. With Universal Studios recent Video On Demand rental of Trolls World Tour apparently doing as well as it has, it’s opened up a bit of a Pandora’s Box in the movie world. AMC theaters is pushing back with the promise to not show ANY Universal movies in their theaters once things open back up. Who needs who more in the landscape ahead is what’s on everyones’ minds going forward. Will AMC be able to survive by boycotting films like Jurassic World: Dominion or F9, the latest in the Fast and Furious series? Is this a huge overreaction that they’ll have to shamefully walk back the morning after? We’ll discuss all this and much more in the world of VOD going forward. We’ll also take a look at the latest Star Wars news regarding Taika Waititi joining the ranks as the newest director on board to helm a picture in the world after Skywalker. We’re both quite excited at this news and wanted to bring a little positivity to the forefront. You’ll get all this and more in part 2 of the State of the Cinematic Union on this episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
