On today's episode Max, Ben and Ryan question the sincerity of Minion fandom, where are this year's summer anthems? who's the artist you'd pay the most to see in concert? and whether you'd rather see your favorite movie get the legacy sequel, derivative homage, or remake treatment? We also circle back to the season finale of The Boys and Stranger Things, where they rank among the best shows of the year (so far) and take a trip down memory lane reminiscing over the bygone era of Vice City and Gamesharks in the weirdest Ray Liotta memorial you'll find anywhere.

Dang!

What's Chris Kattan Have To Do With Any Of This?

We've got another month full of topics to burn through including our thoughts on Nope: where it ranks among Jordan Peele's filmography, whether or not he's already in the conversation for best horror directors of all time, and if social commentary ever results in any real change. To skip the Nope spoilers jump to (13:47).

We also take a look forward to MCU's Phase 4-6 plans announced at Comic Con, the cancelation of the completed Batgirl film as a result of the Discovery / Warner merger, Ryan joins the Bey-hive, Max jumps off the black midi hype train and both are pleasantly surprised by Jack White (again) while Ben laments slow music. We close with the finale of Better Call Saul, Max praises the premiere of House of the Dragon and everyone being confused by Westworld for a myriad of reasons.
