Bargain Bin Bros: Recent Episodes
Ben & Mike
In which two brothers, Ben and Michael, review movies of usually medium-to-bad quality. We love to love movies.
NOTE: Originally we called the podcast, Ben and Mike's Film Room, but we are open to change.
This Venom movie takes the fun of the original and amps it up quite a bit. What is even going to happen in this movie? Is venom a hero or a villain and what do we get to learn about the Symbiotes? With the very interesting mid credit scene, what will be happening in with Venom in the MCU?
The first of the Venom-verse, Sony takes a stab at some of the Marvel madness. How did it go? Is this good? How did the great performances fit in the medium script and story? What are our hopes for Venom 2 - Carnage Boogaloo?
A great fighting movie, a great addition to the MCU. What does this mean for the universe? What is the deal with the world? What will the role of Shang Chi be in the future of Marvel? Was it good?
A decent movie at the wrong time? Why was this made now? How does this stack up against past movies? What will happen to our new favorite character, Yelena?
What a great television experience! What does Loki mean to the MCU and the future of the movies? How does all the time stuff work? Why does Owen Wilson never say "Wooow"?
What could seem like another gritty superman clone, Invincible surprises and intrigues. What makes this so different from the others and is it worth your time?
How does this show compare to Wandavision, and what does it mean for the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe? How important are these television shows anyways?
One from our "Archives" where we reviewed one our new favorites, Infinity Train. An amazing universe and good characters, this show continued to surprise us.
What is the deal with all the names? This groundhog's day movie is a great Tom Cruise movie at the same time. Let's dive into the bin and see what this movie has for us.
After far too long, Phase 4 of Marvel is up and running! What makes this show so fun? Is the television format better than the cinema? Is this how the future of Marvel will work? What is the deal with vision?
This movie has been a long time coming, and we wanted to see if it was worth the 4 hour watch time. See Zach Snyder's true vision for the Justice League.
What does this mean for the future of DC?
This podcast has spoilers, like all our other podcasts. Kong and Godzilla duke it out and their is a very obvious winner. Was this movie worth seeing? What is next up for the Monsterverse?
This Kong is not the old clay stop-motion of old. It also includes our favorite pair of heroes, Samuel L Jackson, and Brie Anderson. What does the Monsterverse have in store for us?
Although watched out of order, this is a movie that got Ben passionate about Godzilla. He has since watched dozens of Godzilla movies. What is it about this movie that hit the good spots? What makes a good Godzilla movie at all?
10 years since any other Godzilla movie (Godzilla Final Wars in 2004), and 60 years after the original, Godzilla is getting another reboot. Is it all its cracked up to be? Can two non-Godzilla fans appreciate what this movie has in store?
This was not the best Godzilla movie. Although the first attempt in America, it moved so far from the formula of old school Godzilla that many people just remember it as a mistake. Lets really get in there and see what it was all about as we prepare for the upcoming Monsterverse.
This is the end of an era! Will Marvel or Film ever be the same? We have our chance to organize our favorites of all the Marvel movies. We predict the future of Marvel and remember our favorite times.
With the Endgame over and done, we all need a vacation. Spider-Man still is a fun adventure, even with the reminders of what was lost in the last movie.
Finally made it to the Endgame! What an ending to an adventure! A great event to experience after years of waiting. We gush for too long about the end of the endgame.
This was recorded far earlier than most of the others, we watched this right when it came out in theaters. Captain Marvel was a controversial movie and really the characters fell flat too often. How does this relate to Endgame? Is this a must see before the fourth Avengers?
Everyone is so excited for Endgame, and this movie continues to open up the possibilities of the MCU. How will the quantum realm be connected to the plot of endgame? Why did they remove the best deleted scene?
Wow, this movie is great! We love everything about it, and this is what inspired us to make the podcast in the first place. Listen to us gush about how great the movie is for far too long, now fully appreciating all the hidden references.
A great movie and a great example of a super hero story without the need of an origin. We love the country of Wakanda and the characters. How does this fit into the story on the Road to Endgame?
Magic is having its impact on the funniest Marvel movie so far. Thor really enters into his own in this very exciting movie for the Norse God.
Finally, the third Spider-Man 1 (also known as Spider-Man 1,3). No origin story here. We love the character of peter parker and the youth, but is it live up to the hype of one of the most popular superheroes ever?
Guardians of the Galaxy 2. How strong is Gamora, holding that gigantic gun? What is the deal with Nova? Could the soundtrack get any better? This movie definitely know what they want to make, but can it capture the magic of the first?
In my opinion, one of the best origin stories ever. But not everyone thinks that way. Check out Sherlock Holmes with a cape and real magic everywhere!
The Civil War is considered by many to be one of the best Marvel movies. Do you side with Iron Man or Captain? Is the villain any good? Does Ant-Man make any sense? How great is Spider-Man?
Phase 2 is over and the momentum is up. Marvel movies really have found its stride for movies. How do they all stack up?
The first heist movie? What does this movie imply for Marvel's future phases? Why was this included in the phase at all?
The robot apocalypse is upon us! Is it really Tony Stark's fault? What is the deal with Vision? Is quicksilver cool or lame? Questions that need answers.
Good music and the funniest one yet. Guardians opening scene alone makes this a treat. It is totally worth a rewatch.
A contender for the best Marvel movie ever. The plot thickens and the role of Shield is more nebulous.
The movie was fine. This podcast went a little off the rails. (Don't worry, no one else really watched this movie either)
So many Iron Man suits, and the Mandarin? This is one that Ben never got around to originally. Let's start the MCU Phase 2!
A review of the first phase of the MCU. How has it been going so far? How will this compare to other phases? What are the possibilities?
Marvel's The Avengers. A fabulous movie. The first time the MCU get's to really flex its muscles and make something special. It was an event at the time, and it is still a good watch.
The last movie before the first Avengers, but the first one chronologically. Captain America is loved, but is it loved with rose-tinted glasses?
The first Thor. It starts to allow other people than Tony Stark to be funny. Thor is not the same Thor we get to know later, but we still like him
Ones of Michael's favorites, Iron Man 2 gets a bad wrap. But we really enjoy this movie as the MCU begins to form.
The second movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), the second Hulk movie in recent memory, and our second podcast
Our first ever podcast. This is our "Road to Endgame" a plan to watch every Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) movie before Avengers Endgame was released
