Episodes
If you have been a long-time listener, then you will know Blaine's extreme dislike for the first Black Panther movie so at the very least this will be a pretty interesting one! It's now been 4 years sense the first film, the public is losing faith in the MCU, and on top of it all we have a new-ish actor in the role of Black Panther. Can director Ryan Coogler bring the MCU back to life or is he going to drive the wedge deeper with the die hard fans in favor of critics and the Twitter Twats?...

So DC has a new movie out about one of their long running villains... but it's staring The Rock who is notorious for refusing to be the bad guy. So, there are two big questions to ask. First, can Dwayne break bad?... and second, but most important, it's a DC movie... so does it suck?

Jordan Peel is critically loved as a director but common to what they would like for you to think he's an extremely divisive director at the very least. Being that Get Out is one of Blaine's most hated movies of all time, paired with his extreme dislike for Jordan and his political effect on the industry, you should definitely give this week's review a listen!

Joseph Kosinski is teaming back up with the holy lord of Scientology, Tom Cruse! He might be as crazy as a bed bug but love him or hate him you can't deny the man's on screen charisma and dedication. First they gave us the interesting scifi flick Oblivion and now we are getting a sequel to one of the most highly praised movies of the 80's, Top Gun! Is it too little too late or is the need for speed undeniable regardless of a 36 year wait!?

This mothers day you get a mega macho movie review, your welcome! Indie director Robert Eggers just hit theatres with The Northman; his third film, and this time he's going all out with a bigger budget, action, Viking period piece. We reviewed his last film which had very mixed opinions so the questions is, does a more main stream approach have a more wide appeal for audiences?

The Adam Project staring Ryan Reynolds and director Shawn Levy is a partnership we've seen recently with Free Guy so it obviously peaked the Aroused crew's interest... but Netflix cranks out new original content every single week and it's constantly a gamble with wildly ranging levels of quality.

Holy crap, Guillermo del Toro has a new movie out! It's called Nightmare Alley and it's actually a remake of a movie you've also never heard of. Have you even seen any ads for this thing? We sure have not, any why, do we blame Spider-Man? Either way, one must ask themselves, can anything ever top Pacific Rim?... the answer is obviously always going to be no, nothing is better than Pacific Rim!

Director Edgar Wright is back with his new film Last Night in Soho and he made sure to mix things up quite a bit from the films we have come to love him for the most. This thriller/ horror/drama flick is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat after Wright takes his time introducing you to his vison of London of the 60's and today. The big question here is if the critics and audiences all think this new tonal chanchange suits Wright's style?
