Run away with us
This episode we finally get to finish the HBO series "Insecure". We left off at episode 4 and we get all the way to the season finale. We get into the battle of the sexist debate on who was wrong or right that has been flooding the internet as well as a little personal perspective into the conversation.
We also get ready for the season premiere of the new season.

This episode Alicia and I discuss the new Guy Ritchie flick, King Arthur - Legend of the sword. Critics and audiences did not favor this movie not one bit. But Alicia and I like Guy Ritchie and wanted to give the movie a chance (not often do we do that)
For an out of the ordinary review, We decided on a new TV series on Starz to review. The critically acclaimed novel "American Gods" created by Neil Gaiman comes to TV. I mentioned this series to Alicia early last year because we both are big fans of Bryan Fuller (Hannibal, Pushing Daisies). And this show has all the creative flair of the two of them in such different ways. Check it out, it is partially complex but both horror and entertaining at the same time. Here's the series summary. Enjoy!!

This Episode Alicia and I go to a late showing of Wonder Woman because we heard so much about this movie as well as listening to the interviews with the stars and the director. Since this is a DC movie not a Marvel movie, I was of course cautious of this being any good. But we got to enjoy this film from different perspectives.

The all star cast returns and we get to see all the new cast members and sit and watch how this next big blockbuster really turns out. You might be surprised or not surprised by our review of this movie. I should have listened to my favorite podcast Cinemile when they did the review of the movie as well.
