Welcome back to a brand-new episode of the 3 Geeks Podcast! We kick things off with a spoiler-free review of Zach Cregger's Weapons—one of the most anticipated movies of 2025. We dive into the plot, performances, pacing, and overall impact of the film while giving our honest take on whether it truly lives up to the hype. If you're on the fence about checking it out, this review has you covered. Next, we share what we've been watching lately, from exciting new releases to hidden gems you might have missed. Whether it's surprising streaming shows or underrated films that deserve a spotlight, we've got recommendations to help build your watchlist for the week. Finally, we close the episode with our Top 5 Movies of 2025 (so far)—ranking the year's very best films based on storytelling, creativity, performances, and overall entertainment. If you love reviews, rankings, and all things pop culture, this is an episode you won't want to miss!
This week on Toon'd In!, Jim Cummings welcomes the legendary animator, writer, director, and Darkwing Dad himself—Tad Stones! The creative force behind Darkwing Duck, Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers, Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, and the Aladdin sequels and series sits down for a no-holds-barred chat packed with passion, nostalgia, and a few myth-busting surprises (yes, we're talking about Darkwing and Batman... again).From his early days at Disney during the Eisner boom to crafting some of the most beloved Saturday morning staples of all time, Tad shares what it really took to bring these shows to life—story pitches, character development, late-night rewrites, and the moments that made it all worthwhile. He and Jim reflect on their collaborations, the evolution of TV animation, and why the heart behind the art still matters most.
Eventually, we'll get "Golden" and "Soda Pop" out of our heads. But for now, we're giving into the insanely catchy delights of "KPop Demon Hunters" on Breakfast All Day. The animated Netflix phenomenon is coming to select theaters for one weekend only, Aug. 23-24, for sing-along showings. Find out here if it's playing near you. Until then, you can catch it streaming and catch up with our catch-up review. We also review "Nobody 2," the sequel to the 2021 action comedy "Nobody." Bob Odenkirk returns with his particular set of skills, but all he wants to do is enjoy a quiet vacation with his family. In theaters. We did Movie News LIVE! for a second week in a row. Lots to discuss as always, including the trailer for "Marty Supreme," Park Chan-wook, Tom Cruise and more. Join us on Fridays at Noon Pacific. And finally, it's our "Weapons" LIVE spoiler chat. We're placing this at the end in case you haven't seen the movie yet and don't want to hear us get into it. And we do get into it. Thanks for being here!

It's not exactly a Niku Daruma, but it's close! Sean and Parker return to discuss some weird things this week. First, it's hate-watching Bill Maher and youtubers and Parker went to see "Weapons." After that, Sean introduces a new game show. Is it "Mike" or "Psych" as Parker is quizzed on how well he knows everyone's favorite Japanese director, Rikishi Mike. Then, the guys discuss the less successful director, Takashi Miike, and his 2014 film, "As the Gods Will." The movie, based on a manga, as is pretty common, features a violent daruma doll, bored gods and a very violent day at school. "> Direct Donloyd All this, plus Junk Mails, Australia, Godzilla Chat and so much more.
Chad and Alex are back! This time they're tearing into the modern media mess like only they can. From doom-scrolling binges to Netflix specials, they get into: Are movies still as good as they used to be? Or have lower budgets and higher expectations killed the magic? They unload Adam Sandler's career arc. From the Happy Gilmore glory to whatever dropped last week that makes you laugh your butt off. The guys have their usual takes on old-school music that still hits the gut, laughs that sneak up on you, and enough cultural critique to light a bonfire. Chad and Alex don't tiptoe. They rip open how we consume media today and whether it's even worth buying a ticket to see the old rockstars still going hard. Pour that Jack, take a seat, and let's do this.

Episode Summary: In this episode, John and Josh take a no-nonsense (and slightly sarcastic) look at some of the most misguided things people say about their self-defense and fighting abilities. From “I'll just kick them in the groin” to “I fought my brother once,” they break down why these beliefs are dangerous, unrealistic, and often rooted in movie myths instead of reality. Along the way, they share training stories, break down fight footage, and even relive the unforgettable “Josh gets tased” moment.What You'll Hear in This Episode:Why “nothing will ever happen to me” is one of the most dangerous self-defense mindsets.The myth of the “groin kick win button” and why it's not a guaranteed fight-ender.Strength vs. skill – why technique usually wins.“I'll go crazy” – the flaw in relying on pure aggression.The problem with basing confidence on a single high school fight.The false security of “I have a weapon” (and why access and legality matter).Why sibling wrestling matches don't prepare you for real attacks.The illusion of learning “a few moves” from YouTube without real practice.Good instincts aren't enough under adrenaline and stress.Overestimating the “one punch knockout” fantasy.Key Takeaways:Real skill only comes from consistent, realistic training against resisting partners.Movies and viral videos create false expectations of how fights work.Being a good training partner is just as important as practicing techniques.Overconfidence without experience can lead to poor decisions and legal trouble.The best self-defense mindset: Train more, suck less.Links & Resources:Train with us online: ClearSky TrainingIn-person training: Rocky Mountain Self Defense & FitnessSupplements & gear: Suck Less PerformanceClosing Message: Don't overestimate your skills. Don't wait until it's too late. Train consistently, question your assumptions, and remember—self-defense is about preparation, not ego.

HOLY MOLY!! Fixed Full Movie Reaction Watch Along / thereelrejects Support The Channel By Getting Some REEL REJECTS Aparrel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ Animation Legend Genndy Tartakovsky RETURNS with a Netflix Original feat of Hand-Drawn Adult Animation - Greg & John Give their FIXED Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Breakdown, & Full Movie Spoiler Review!! Get ready for a raunchy, animated romp as Fixed unleashes a surreal night in the life of Bull—a lovable staffordshire bull terrier who discovers he's scheduled to be neutered the next morning. Directed and co-written by Genndy Tartakovsky (Samurai Jack, Dexter's Laboratory, Primal) with acclaim for its bold, hand‑drawn 2D visuals, Fixed marks Sony Pictures Animation's first R‑rated animated feature. Voicing Bull is Adam DeVine (Workaholics, Pitch Perfect), joined by a standout voice cast including Idris Elba (Luther, Pacific Rim) as Rocco, Kathryn Hahn (Agatha All Along, Bad Moms) as Honey, Fred Armisen (Saturday Night Live, Portlandia) as Fetch, Beck Bennett (SNL, The Mitchells vs. the Machines) as Sterling, Bobby Moynihan (SNL, Spider-Verse) as Lucky, plus River Gallo, Michelle Buteau, and more! The plot zooms through Bull's desperate, gonad-obsessed escapades—storming dog clubs, chasing love, causing chaos in “Hump City,” and facing his deepest fears. Scenes like the dog's strip club, Kool-Aid toilet debacle, ball-themed existential chaos, and Bull's heartfelt confession to Honey are as hysterical as they are disturbing. Tartakovsky's signature visual style shines—even if the humor may wear thin quickly. Critics are divided: some praise the stunning hand-drawn animation and bold character design, while others chide the relentless crude punchlines!

They dig into Spike Lee's gripping new drama with Denzel Washington, Highest 2 Lowest, the high-octane sequel Nobody 2 starring Bob Odenkirk, and the wild, shoestring-budget horror oddity Jimmy and Stiggs, along with a few other fresh releases.

Today Razib talks to Noah Millman. Millman is an American screenwriter and filmmaker, as well as a political columnist and cultural critic based in Brooklyn, New York. He is the film and theater critic for Modern Age; previously he was a columnist for The Week (2015–2022) and a senior editor at The American Conservative (2012–2017). Millman writes the newsletter Gideon's Substack, and his work has also appeared in outlets such as The New York Times and Politico. He graduated from Yale University and initially worked on Wall Street for 16 years, starting in a hedge fund's mail room, before leaving after the financial crisis to pursue creative endeavors full-time. Millman has been a producer on seven films, and written three and directed three. His most recent film is Resentment, and he is working on a novel, Fables of a Jewish Century. Razib and Millman begin their conversation discussing their history as bloggers who began writing early in the first decade of the century, in the wake of George W. Bush's invasion of Iraq. Millman discusses his disillusionment with neoconservatism, and his evolution into a moderate, if heterodox, Democrat. They also discuss their positionality in a political commentary landscape that has radically shifted over the last twenty years, and what it's like to be strongly partisan. They discuss how their views of religion have changed, especially in the wake of the New Atheist movement after 9/11 and the emergence of psychedelic spirituality in the 2020s. Millman articulates his views as a Jew whose own theological commitments are minimal, stating that he believes that the “Hindus are right about God” but John Calvin was probably right about humans. In the second half of the discussion, they pivot to the arts, beginning with how film as a medium has developed over the last generation, from the high tide of independent films in 1999 and through the “comic book” movie heyday of the 2010s, and on finally to the reemergence of more classic movies like Tom Cruise's Top Gun: Maverick 2 and Brad Pitt's F1. Razib argues that the Marvel universe exhausted its creative possibilities, and the same content no longer compels the younger generations, especially in a 90-minute format. Millman addresses whether film as a medium has reached the end of the line as a mass medium, and how fan-culture and “stan” culture has transformed the experience of the arts. He also asserts that cultural fragmentation is driven by technology, as consumers have a much greater range of options in their choices than in the past. Millman observes that as top-down cultural dynamics have collapsed, shifts are now driven by bottom-up drives. He also argues that movies will continue to be a major art form because filmmaking is now far cheaper than it was in the past, but he is not optimistic about the future of mass-market tent-pole films that can transcend myriad fan subcultures. Movie studios still do not know which films will become hits and which will flop, even the magic of Pixar and Marvel Studios are no longer a sure thing. In fact, Millman argues that fragmentation has masked the revival of art forms like the novel. As the gatekeepers are gone, many consume low art, with middle-aged people reading copious amounts of YA fiction. Millman argues that any aspiring artist needs to grapple with the competitive realities of the new attention economy. Technology has made it easier for anyone to create art because new tools are cheaper and self-publishing is now a real option for writers. However, all of this unleashed creativity is competing for the same amount of funding, support and a relatively fixed audience.

It's a different kind of show this week as Darren and Adam discuss the recently released Superman film. The movie, directed by James Gunn, stars David Corenswet as Superman. The discussion includes a look at box office results and factors contributing to them, criticism of art and the various things we like and dislike about the film. Though it isn't a particularly sciencey topic, we can't help but apply our own brand of critical thinking to some aspects of the film. The film is currently in theatres worldwide and available to purchase digitally. It's recommended that you watch it before listening to this episode as there are plenty of spoilers, if you care about that kind of thing.

Ryan covers two controversial talking points in the current SCREAM discourse: (1) the impact of Alison Brie's recent comments about “the Core Four,” her disappointment in the recent films, and Dewey's death; (2) the potential of Melissa Barrera joining “Scary Movie 6” to spoof Sam Carpenter, her own divisive performance, and Scream overall after her controversial fallout with Spyglass and exit from the franchise.

[School of Movies 2025] This film began life before James Gunn was abruptly fired overnight, by Marvel. It languished for years through the triumph of Endgame, then the Pandemic, and Gunn's hiring by DC to direct their Suicide Squad sequel. The man who came back to pick up the script had been changed, and while Superman (2025) shows the sheer optimistic joy he's capable of imbuing his projects with, this farewell to the Guardians is a dark, furious requiem of betrayal, loss, bitter conflict and ultimately redemption. In choosing to make it all about Rocket Raccoon, the secret weapon of the MCU was taken out of the picture. He is attacked by newcomer Adam Warlock on Knowhere home turf, in a failed act of corporate reclamation. His killswitch is triggered, leaving him in a coma and it is up to the Guardians to investigate the Doctor Moreau-inspired High Evolutionary, and find out how to bring Rocket back. This leaves him absent for much of the present-day movie, stuck reliving his tragic past, and the earliest friends he made. These tragic events would twist his future actions into those of anger and neurotic rejection of even his closest companions. It is unlike any other MCU film, deeply personal and imbued with such vociferous anger that it actually becomes a mess, half hanging onto what was originally intended, half channelling the mixed, spiking emotions of going back to deal with your monster, saying goodbye to your dear friends and moving on to other and better things. The world is better for the confluence of events that led us to getting our new Superman and a brighter future of the DC Universe, but it was Gunn who took the damage, and this film exemplifies that.
