#001 - Movie Review - The Martian

1 Recommendations

In our debut episode, we review "The Martian," starring Matt Damon, a favorite among our original trio of co-hosts, Dave, Dave, and Todd (not a typo; two Daves; not confusing at all).

We talk about our favorite moments, favorite quotes, the amazing visuals, the extended version, deleted scenes, and much more.

With this review as well as our ones to come, we sum up remaining thoughts in a lightning round, grade the movie three different ways, and throw out ideas of what to cover in a future episode.

We approach our reviews from every angle -- the intellectual, the analytical, the emotional, the geeky, and the just plain fun.

Thank you for joining us in the debut of the next adventure between three best friends and continue enjoying whatever makes you a Discerning Geek.

Note: The audio has been re-uploaded twice, for slight improvements, once in February 2023 and again with slight volume adjustments on 01 January 2024.
