Hulk Smashed

Suicide Squad is the Andrew Lloyd Webber's CATS of superhero movies. Listen up if you want to know what THAT sentence means.

Comic book writer Christopher Hastings (Dr. McNinja, Gwenpool, Adventure Time) and comedian Chrissie Gruebel (UCB's Character's Welcome, Reductress, Funny or Die) throw back a few drinks and talk about Suicide Squad.

Comic book writer Christopher Hastings (Deadpool, I Am Groot, Vote Loki) and comedian Chrissie Gruebel (UCB's Maude Night, Reductress, Funny or Die) throw a few drinks back and talk about the super hero movie that saved Marvel: BLADE.

We talk about sexy 90s vampires, sexy Civil War vampires, and the importance of sunscreen.

We also had a try at pairing a cocktail with this movie, so before you listen to this episode, make yourself one of these:

NEW YORK SOUR/BLOOD RAVE

Combine 2 oz bourbon, 1 oz lemon juice, and 1 oz simple syrup in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake for about 30 seconds to a minute and strain into an old fashioned glass with fresh ice. Gently pour 1 tbsp dry red wine over the back of a spoon onto the top of the drink, so the red floats on top, just like a sprinkler system full of blood!

Comic book writer Christopher Hastings (Deadpool, I Am Groot, Vote Loki) and comedian Chrissie Gruebel (UCB's Maude Night, Reductress, Funny or Die) throw a few drinks back and talk about the nightmare of boredom that is Ang Lee's HULK.

We make our second "Heathcliffe the cat loves to eat bones" joke of the series. Chrissie repeatedly brings up the gamma irradiated monster dog that gets hit in the uh oh zone. We talk about Steven King's On Writing, Beyonce's attention to detail, and generally find any excuse we can to talk about anything other than this movie which we hated.

Comic book writer Christopher Hastings (Deadpool, I Am Groot, Vote Loki) and comedian Chrissie Gruebel (UCB's Maude Night, Reductress, Funny or Die)talk about their trip to a Saturday Night Live dress rehearsal.

It's the one that Black Panther star, Chadwick Boseman hosted, so it kind of counts! Watch the episode and then listen to us talk about what MAY or MAY NOT have been cut from the dress rehearsal.

Chrissie stans David Goyer. Chris reveals his ties to this movie from his time interning at Marvel. And in the background, a cake is baked. Google "Aunt Sassy Cake" for the recipe. It's fantastic.
