The sport of kings hits the big screen with Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story. We take a look at a few of the main characters and try to figure out who would play them if the movie was made today.

This week on the show, we talk about some legendary directors and why they're upset about the current state of cinema. Martin Scorsese, Ridley Scott and Christopher Nolan have made some of the greatest films of all time, and have incredible legacies, so what are they so upset about?

Reach out on social media @cinemaswap. Hosts: Chris De Carlo, Sam Malone, Forrester Dunbrook

Calling all Marvel fans! We've all seen and enjoyed Earth's Mightiest Heroes on the big screen, and the MCU is growing just about every month now, so we decided to cast our own Marvel films with characters who have not yet showed up in an MCU property. We chat about some beloved characters who haven't gotten their big break yet and also some weirdos you've probably never heard of before. We also try to decide if these new teams of heroes would actually make a good movie or not. Let us know which Marvel characters you would like to see in an upcoming film! Reach out to @cinemaswap on social media. Hosts: Chris De Carlo, Sam Malone, Forrester Dunbrook

This week on the show, we pose the question, what if? We pitch a movie idea of two existing films, combined together to get the best of both worlds.
