It's finally time to bring everyone's favorite masked alien to the world of BRBR and I couldn't be happier. This week we are heading deep into the jungle with Ah-nuld as we look at 1987's infamous classic, Predator. It's up to Arnie and the boys to rescue some hostages and make it out of the jungle alive. However, even with their big guns and bigger muscles, they soon find themselves outmatched by an extraterrestrial foe. And honestly y'all, this is one of those movies that is surrounded by seriously so much hate. Haha I absolutely don't get all the hate for this one! Predator is one of my favorite movies from the 80's and features so much goofy action and dialogue. Classic shoot'em up movies featuring a group of commandoes are just a solid part of my childhood. So this movie was right up my alley growing up! Can Arnold and his super soldier squad rescue the hostages, defeat the Predator and "get to the choppa" to escape these bad reviewers? Tune in to find out!

Well thanks to an incredible listener of the show, it's time once more to return to the MCU. That's right! This is a commissioned episode brought to BRBR by a listener just like yourself! This week we look at one of the stronger sequels to a Marvel origin story with Captain America: The Winter Soldier. And let's be real... Marvel has a streak of duds for second installments to origin stories. (Yes, looking at you Iron Man 2 and Thor: Dark World haha). But Cap brings the action as well as an end to that streak in this one. With S.H.I.E.L.D. playing both sides and an oddly familiar new foe making his presence known, it's up to our man Steve Rogers, Falcon and Black Widow to put an end to the secret life of some "good guys." And honestly, I love how much this movie breaks away from the typical Marvel formula and gives us more of a spy thriller than a superhero flick. Boasting some fantastic practical action and Nick Fury being more furious than ever, it's definitely one MCU feature film to revisit. Can Captain America and allies stop the Winter Soldier, defeat the secret branch of HYDRA and shield-throw these bad reviewers out of this world? Tune in to find out!

Friends, moviegoers and yes, you bad reviewers... This week we are pleased to announce that we are celebrating one full year of BRBR! Never would I have dreamed that I would be 53 episodes into a movie podcast I created but thanks to you fantastic listeners, we can say that. Seriously though, it's a fun celebration episode for the show and all but it wouldn't be where it is today or what it is today without you guys. So in the spirit of shouting out some incredible supporters and listeners, in addition to the brief history of BRBR and some behind the scenes facts, you'll also get to hear an "Ask Me Anything" Q&A session where I answer questions written in from some of the friendliest pods on the planet. It's definitely a break from our typical rhythm and rhyme of the show but it's still definitely going to be a good time. Can Bill control his podcast crew, answer all of the amazing (and hilarious) questions and maybe throw in an explosion or two? Tune in to find out!
