In Episode 139 below, we review Kong: Skull Island. Are movie theaters a safe place for children to play? We weigh in with our thoughts on this week’s episode. Following our discussion, Dave offers his latest segment of “Riedel’s Recaps,” where he recounts the shocking, gruesome violence in Logan (at 4:27), and describes why he found the film to be a statement against hate. Following some tangents about our favorite comic book movies, and whether there are plot holes in Die Hard, we arrive at the week’s main event, Kong: Skull Island (at 17:52). We share some serious laughs as we critique the film’s huge cast, its epic carnage, and its wide range of callbacks to other movies. We lament how confused it is about what type of picture it wants to be, however we celebrate its special effects, its long monster takes, and its perfect casting of John C. Reilly.
