The Walsh Room

Another one from the old vault! Recorded back in late December of 2019, here is our Rise of Skywalker review episode. In hindsight, Brendan believes he was recovering from Covid during the recording, as you'll hear him cough throughout the episode. Anyway, what did the brothers Walsh think of the supposed end of the Skywalker Saga? How were those reveals? Which characters could have had better sendoffs? Why was Brendan disappointed in the sweet potatoes he made for Christmas? All that and more here!

We're back, with an episode from the vault! This was recorded in December of 2019, before the pandemic, and we're finally getting around to releasing it. We are once again joined by our good friend Jose to discuss our favorite films from each of the years of the 2010s. The brothers Walsh may even be back in studio soon!

The brothers Walsh, both big fans of Rian Johnson, now take on the man's blockbuster star-studded whodunnit Knives Out. Normal conversation quirks ensue.

The brothers Walsh take on the newest entry into the MCU. This is the 20th episode, we're dumb and sometimes funny. You should know what to expect.

The brothers Walsh take on Pixar's latest film, and the fourth in the beloved Toy Story franchise, Toy Story 4. Considering how they feel about how Toy Story 3 ended the series, the brothers weren't too sure going into the movie. Did this end the series in a better way? Did this movie do enough to give us farewells to every character that wasn't Woody? All that and more here!

The brothers Walsh are joined by Sasha Duquaine (last with them in the Endgame episode) to discuss Fox's final X-Men film, Dark Phoenix. Did this film feel like a good farewell? When did the series peak? Just how badly will we miss the cast? All that and more here! Of course, SPOILERS ahead.

The day is finally here. After waiting two and a half months since the test screening, Brendan can finally see Rocketman again.

Does this movie show up BoRhap? Will it be our favorite film of the year? Time will tell!

The brothers Walsh review the latest Disney live-action/remake, Aladdin!

Enjoy!

The brothers Walsh welcome Jose back into the studio for a discussion on Disney's animated films. What are some of our favorites? Was the 90's the best era for Disney animation? Is The Lion King overrated? Well, the brothers think it is, but Jose is a massive fan. Anyway, enjoy!

The brothers Walsh, mostly Brendan, come to terms with the fact that this movie exists. Detective Pikachu turned out to be a good, satisfying movie for Pokemon fans. What do they think about this being the start of a Pokemon cinematic universe? What can Hollywood learn from this success? Has Brendan accepted that this is simply the beginning? All that and more here! Of course, SPOILERS AHEAD.

The brothers Walsh did it. They survived watching the conclusion to Marvel's epic 22-movie Infinity Saga. Joining them in studio is Sasha Duquaine, Robert's girlfriend.

Of course, this is very spoiler heavy.

The brothers Walsh review movies to each other in this one! Brendan is hot from Hellboy and Robert found himself in Missing Link. So they review the movies to each other with minor spoilers.
