Sometimes our hosts, ThunderAF and B+, get a break from comic books, and wind up accidently watch an entire movie from The Asylum. Move over Godzilla vs Kong, we reminisce about the kaiju showdown, Ape vs Monster! How did this movie come to be? And who would win in a fight, King Kong or Abe?

Space Jam: A New Legacy has left a lasting mark on our hosts, ThunderAF and B+, and a debate mid-movie has now spilled over into the recording session.
