Russ and Zach head to the new release wall for the second time this weekend for their reactions to Baby Driver, director Edgar Wright’s latest action-comedy starring Ansel Elgort, who — no, Russ — is not Alden Ehrenreich. Geez.
For fun, this one was recorded in a moving car — so you’ll get some variable sound quality…as well as Russ asking Zach to pull over once or twice, just to add to the verisimilitude.
Next episode, barring a change in plans, should be Week 2 of the Summer of Riverdale!

Just like we did after watching Transformers: The Last Knight (you can hear that one here), Russ and Zach got out of Spider-Man: Homecoming and immediately spent virtually the entire runtime of the movie talking about it.
We liked this one significantly more, but still had LOTS AND LOTS to nitpick, so if you're going to take it personally that we picked on some stuff...maybe hold off on this one until you've got a little emotional distance from your first viewing.
Both of us agreed is is a 3.5-star or 4-star (out of 5) movie.

A little change of format: Russ and Zach talk about their reactions to Transformers: The Last Knight while sitting in the car immediately after having seen the film.
Why in the car? Well, it IS a Transformers movie, after all...!
We also have some nods to Every Frame a Painting's episode on "Bayhem," which you can see here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2THVvshvq0Q
And to Lindsay Ellis's ongoing series on Michael Bay, The Whole Plate, the most recent of which you can see here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhmyIb5CF9s
