Josh, Bob, Matthew, Rachel, and Vern sit down for a spooky Halloween roundtable filled with favorite horror films, nostalgic scares, and plenty of laughs. From Tremors and Scream to The Thing and The Nightmare Before Christmas, they explore what makes each movie a classic. It’s equal parts movie talk, nostalgia, and Halloween fun.

The crew take a deep dive into Aquaman (2018). From Jason Momoa’s larger-than-life hero to James Wan’s wild underwater visuals. They debate the acting, the tone, the retcons, and that infamous cargo plane scene. A fun, honest look at one of DC’s most colorful and entertaining films.

We break down the second half of Zack Snyder’s Justice League, exploring Cyborg’s redemption, The Flash’s big moment, and Steppenwolf’s surprising depth plus what the Snyder Cut got right that the theatrical version missed.

Josh and Bob break down Justice League, comparing Joss Whedon’s theatrical cut with Zack Snyder’s four-hour vision, exploring what went wrong, what was redeemed, and how it changed the DCEU.

The hosts of Psyber Conversations break down Wonder Woman (2017), debating Gal Gadot’s performance, Chris Pine’s role, and how the film stacks up against Marvel’s Captain America: The First Avenger.

We take on Suicide Squad (2016), looking at David Ayer’s vision, Warner Brothers’ interference, and a cast led by Will Smith, Margot Robbie, and Jared Leto. Did this troubled DCEU film miss the mark or deserve more credit?

We dig into the film’s darker tone, how it reshapes Superman and Batman, and the choices that split fans. From Doomsday and Lex to the “Martha” moment, we call out what works, what does not, and why DC animation often lands where live action stumbles.

We kick off our two-part discussion on Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, breaking down its darker tone, Affleck’s jaded Batman, Cavill’s conflicted Superman, and the casting choices that still spark debate.

In Part 2 of our Man of Steel discussion, we continue exploring the film’s grounded tone, Superman’s morality, and the lasting debate around the Metropolis battle. We also look at how the darker tone of the Snyderverse took shape and dive into Hans Zimmer’s unforgettable score that redefined Superman’s sound for a new generation.

We explore Man of Steel and its darker tone, the explosive Metropolis battle, Superman’s reimagined morality, and Zack Snyder’s bold visual style. A closer look at why this film remains one of the most debated superhero stories of its era.
