This week on The Jock and Nerd Podcast, we discuss the latest Hollywood news, including Zach Cregger bringing the viral horror phenomenon Siren Head to the big screen, the behind-the-scenes creative struggles that may have contributed to Supergirl’s disappointing box office performance, and what the future could hold for James Gunn’s DC Studios. We also react to the first trailer for Motor City starring Alan Ritchson.
Then we dive into a spoiler-filled review of the first three episodes of X-Men ’97 Season 2, breaking down Apocalypse’s return, Cable, X-Force, the show’s ambitious time-travel story, and why Marvel Animation may have another hit on its hands. We wrap things up with News From The Nation and What Are We Watching?.
