Nick Nack Goes To The Movies

Well almost one year ago I started this podcast only a few months into the first pandemic of most of our lifetimes.  I was lost looking for something to do besides go on six mile walks.  While I was always into movies and TV shows, it hit me, my college roomie was making a movie podcast, and I might as well channel my inspiration and ambition into some creative outlet.  So Nick Nack Goes To The Movies was born.  With it too came a fun albeit startling transition to more and more outright horror.  I had dabbled with it before, but during the pandemic my need to feel something, especially something with a sense of sensory overload.  The American Horror Story series was just the thing I needed, and a year later, with all the ish still going on, it was time for the Hulu/FX spin-off American Horror Stories to fill the void and be the topic of choice.  Santa Trejo, Billie Lourd, a Murder House revisit, and more all on this latest AHS episode before Double Feature delights our airwaves!

It may not be a stellar entry for the DCEU. But somehow it encapsulate the ups and downs and the best and worst of the not so long-standing franchise. If nothing else, the Flash movie exists. This is a movie that has been long expected and gone through multiple ideas and revisions as the future looked bright-ish for this latest cinematic universe and now it looks dead in the water.
The hype going into it was unbelievable, fans and the entirety of the DCEU was counting on this movie with a troubled production history and everything else going on to either save the franchise and be the next step forward or to end thing arguably in the cleanest most concise way ever and wrap up a decade of plot threads. Needless to say, that was a lot, maybe too much on this movie.
But as a super hero movie fan, I had to tackle this movie. It has been far too many months since I last graced the podcast airwaves, so here we are to bring about the end of the DCEU (until Aquaman 2 that is) and talk about how this last entry wrapped things up and how it stands as a solo and final outing for the Flash.
