WrestleMania! What a weekend it was. But first, Adam and Logan take a look at the new Solo trailer, the big casting rumor for Venom, and get super excited for the old Xbox Star Wars games coming back this month! Topping off our show this week is a fitting full extra hour on WrestleMania, NXT TakeOver, and the rest of the wrestling week, plus our thoughts on where we go from here!

Mania! We’re finally here, and it’s gonna be big! But first, the news. Adam and Logan take a look at Ready Player One’s box office numbers, what new record did Black Panther set, and who’s returned to the Jurassic World franchise! Also, is there any show that the CW didn’t renew, and what games are free for Gold and Plus this month? Oh, and CBS wants to buy what? Ending with a breakdown of TakeOver and Mania and our thoughts on who should, shouldn’t, and will win, and what’s going to happen after!

Reviews! We had so many that we promised you a bonus episode, and here we are! Our takes on the final season of Star Wars Rebels, Annihilation, Jessica Jones season 2, Tomb Raider, A Wrinkle in Time, Pacific Rim Uprising, Love, Simon, Far Cry 5, Sea of Thieves, all leading up to the main event- Ready Player One! And to top it off, where do we see VR heading in the future and will RPO spark renewed interest in it?

Victory! Yes, the Ubisoft-Vivendi story Logan has inexplicably been following closely for three years comes to a close! Meanwhile, Adam has some tough talk for Disney on how to schedule conventions (sometimes we really do think we can do it better). All of this, plus two week’s worth of trailers, headlines, and Daniel Bryan is wrestling again! Yes! Yes! Yes! Programming note: We have so much more to review than we thought that we’ll be doing our own review special in the coming days! Stay tuned to our FB page and IG for further announcements.

Smash! Yeah, Nintendo’s newest direct dropped a massive, if expected, bombshell, and Adam and Logan have some roster addition ideas, along with a wrap up of the rest of the Nintendo Direct. Also, news on the Terminator reboot, Fantastic Beasts 2 has a trailer, and what’s the story with Deadpool 2’s testing? This plus a quick glimpse of the review apocalypse that’s coming in next week’s episode so you know what to catch or catch up on!

Oscars! Yes, the Academy Awards were this past Sunday, and they took up a surprisingly shocking small portion of this week's show. Instead, Adam and Logan talk about Disney's rampant release schedule, who's going to WrestleMania, and the deal for The Weinstein Company that was a done deal right up until our red light went on. Also, a surprising chunk of the show gets spent talking about music, including Adam's love of Garth Brooks. Plus, Logan talks Adam into hurrying up to watch the last season of Star Wars Rebels (breakdown to come next week) so much that something unexpected happens at the end of the show!

Big time shout out to Kevin Smith, the unofficial spirit animal of We Geek Podcast. Get well soon! Pandas! Yeah, not letting that joke go anytime soon. Adam and Logan take a look at where we are on the Road to Wrestlemania, with some very strong feelings about what happened at Elimination Chamber. Plus some news this week, from finished scripts (Star Wars) to secret scripts (Doctor Doom), with a stop for a Flamin’ Hot Cheetos film (no, really). Also, a look at Xbox Game Pass this month and can you go back to some childhood movies? Don’t forget to fill out your Oscar bracket and submit it in our FB group!

Could there be anything else? Adam and Logan spend most of the show talking Black Panther, but there is some news too! Trailers for Incredibles 2 and Cobra Kai, plus some casting news for True Detective and Sabrina. Oh, and Logan has a bit of a meltdown over the Hurricane Heist trailer. Those headlines and more, and the last half of the show is our dedicated breakdown of Black Panther!

Wrestling! This week, we’re all about that bass, that giant bass, as Adam and Logan break down how much fun the recent WWE programming has been and where we hope that might be leading. Also, a Venom trailer with no Venom, a feature-length Kung Fury, and DC wants WHO to direct Lobo?

Trailers! Plenty of trailers from the Super Bowl, but Adam and Logan are here for the big news too and that means Star Wars! Who’s getting to make the next movie series? What’s happening with the Disney streaming service? Also, our review of The Cloverfield Paradox. Oh, and the question of the ages. A conundrum too big to fit in one episode. A riddle that will take at least one YouTube search to solve, with no answer today! Yes, this episode has a cliffhanger…

Rumble! But first, some headlines. Adam and Logan take a look at the director chosen for The Kingkiller Chronicle, what movies have started filming, and the first Ant-Man and the Wasp trailer! Plus, CBS has gone absolutely reboot crazy with 80’s series! All of this and so much more, including a breakdown of the Royal Rumble for the last third of the show and some fantasy Wrestlemania booking!

Big time! Sorry, but I couldn't think of a one word starter and that just popped in there. This week's episode is really just in two halves as Adam and Logan first fantasy book the Royal Rumble and Wrestlemania, then dive into this year's Academy Award nominations and give their predictions! Rounding out the show- a very special discussion on John Cena starring in a Duke Nukem film.    

Movies! Adam and Logan take a journey through the landscape of release dates for films in 2018! Along the way, they manage to cover the headlines, do some fantasy Royal Rumble booking, and Logan lays out a bold plan for the Solo movie!

2018! Yes, our first official episode of the new year and Adam and Logan are taking a look back at the train wreck that was 2017 and finding the good stuff in it. We look back at our favorite movies and games from the past year, but first- some headlines: There’s a Kitty Pride movie in development, Game of Thrones isn’t coming until 2019, and Millie Bobby Brown is going to star and produce in what film series? We’ve got a packed show to kick off the new year and we’re looking forward to 2018!

Strap in everybody! After multiple viewings, Adam and Logan are finally ready to give their take on The Last Jedi! The highs, the lows, addressing the backlash, and what this means for the future of Star Wars!

Finally! Adam and Logan bring this to a close, a year that seemed to go on forever, with some headlines from Hasbro, a discussion on the schism caused by The Last Jedi (no spoilers), an update on Tarantino’s Star Trek film, and a long discussion on the state and future of WWE. Also, we have one more former hero being accused of sexual harassment, and Adam and Logan pull no punches in reiterating that this behavior needs to be spotlit and the culture has to change. 2017 was both a good and terrible year, and we’re going to have to fight hard, but we can make 2018 a better, brighter year.

Trailers! A couple of big trailers this week, and Adam and Logan are excited for them! Plus, we recap The Game Awards, Adam gives a very dead-on outlook for Detective Pikachu, and Logan finds an overlooked nugget in the Disney/FOX deal that would break Comic-Con! Lots of discussion this week since there’s not much news, but next week’s show is going to be massive!

News! Adam and Logan are back to 2 hours now, and a good chunk of it goes to figuring out just what's gonna happen if Disney does indeed by what FOX is selling. Also, we've got some hints about Rian Johnson's Star Wars trilogy, Bohemian Rhapsody hits a big production snag, and who is JJ Abrams sitting down with to make a Star Trek film? Light on news, big on discussion this week as we gear up for the Jurassic World trailer, the Game Awards, and PSX this weekend! Big show coming next week!

We wanted the Infinity War trailer to be the big news this week, and it is big, but go to battleforthenet.com and make your voice heard in saving the internet as we know it. Now then, news! Yes, we have finally gotten our first Infinity War trailer and it is glorious! Adam and Logan take a long time picking it apart in the best way possible. Also, it’s a very, very bad time to be EA, as we dive into. Plus, December’s free games for Plus and Gold revealed, more rumblings about somebody buying a bunch of FOX, and a special extra long review segment this week because we finally go through Thor: Ragnarok and Justice League!

News! This is what happens when we take a week off. Adam and Logan bring you an extra large episode breaking down all the new Star Wars news, plus the coming Lord of the Rings TV series, and what's going on with Disney and FOX? Plus, Are You Afraid of the Dark is getting a movie (with an awesome writer), Niantec announces a Harry Potter AR game, Bendis goes to DC, a brief preview of what's coming up in WWE, and more! We have so much news all packed into our usual 2-hour show that we had to add the Game Awards nominations as a bonus third hour all on its own! Some of our picks just may surprise you.
