Topics:
- (PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 37-minutes discussing Anthony D'Alessandro's article "As 'Deadpool & Wolverine' Stomps On Superhero Fatigue, Studios Debate Comic-Con's Relevance", where-in D'Alessandro notes some geeky films that are skipping Comic-Con like Joker: Folie à Deux, Venom: The Last Dance, and Lord of the Rings: The War of Rohirrim, and why some studios may start treating SDCC differently. (PATREON EXCLUSIVE)
- Shirleon has been on a self-described “Vin Diesel kick” lately, which made covering Pitch Black more enjoyable.
- While watching the film Melvin thought, “Syfy Channel basically copied this movie a thousand times over.”
- Shirleon observed that certain online discourse* compares Pitch Black to John Carpenter’s The Thing. Melvin doesn’t really see it. (*Source: 1 // 2)
- Contrary to its title, it never feels like our characters are in a state of pitch black.
- Old cohost Daniel sent Melvin a list of 7 interesting details about Vin Diesel/Riddick. Melvin reads them aloud.
- The film contains a kind and interesting pre-9/11 depiction of Islam with a throughline about faith.
- Do we like the ending?
- Celebrating Riddick's simple character design in a world of gaudy superhero suits.
