3BG- Year in Review 2015
2015 was a very eventful year and we break down our favorite moments.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens
The most highly anticipated movie ever. Its been about 10 years or so since the last Star Wars movie. Ever since its announcement, hype has built up for this movie. Does this movie live up to the hype or does it falter under it. Tune in to find out!!!!

3BG Christmas Special 2015
Here's another Christmas podcast for ya but we go on a non-predictable path on this one. Trust me, you guys will enjoy this episode.

WrestleCorner 100
Wherein we break down our top 100 wrestlers of 2015 and go over the WWE TLC and happenings around the world of wrestling.

The Spirit
What happens when you let Frank Miller write and direct a movie? You get The Spirit. A movie that clearly gives zero fucks about delivering a competent story and characters you care about. This movie is an example of how NOT to do a comic book movie.

WrestleCorner - WTF is wrong with wrestling
Wherein we talk about the recent ratings woes of WWE, Survivor Series results, where the WWE goes from here, the greatness that is NJPW, and TNA shenanigans.

Tyler Perry's Temptation
Always been a fan with Tyler Perry approached his material and tried to get it into the Hollywood system. Here's a guy who after multiple studios did want to push his flicks in theaters, Perry optioned to do it himself and the result was showing Hollywood that black people will come out to watch his movies in droves. That being said the quality of his movies are very much questionable. Some are moderately good and some are bad. The bad ones range from guilty pleasure to just plain awful and Temptation is just awful. Subtlety is definitely not in this flick and they beat your over the head constantly with biblical stuff. Definitely a doozy of a movie overall.

Jessica Jones
If you felt that Daredevil was a "dark" superhero show then in comes Jessica Jones which makes Daredevil look like a Disney channel show. Jessica Jones is a show that really nails the character and the world she inhabits. Its also a show that feels more personal and you see with each and every character. Definitely worth a listen if you watch the show or even interested in it.

Matrix Revolutions
And this is where the series completely went off rails. Matrix Revolutions is a case of a movie that made up stuff as it went along. What we end up getting is a movie that ended the series on a weak note. Not to mention an online game that completely negates the ending too. *Sigh*

Morphin Metacast - Power Rangers In Space
This is it...the season that was the end of the Zordon era. Power Rangers in Space is what happens when a companies back is against the wall and they put out a damn good quality show. Power Rangers In Space was supposed to be the last season of the show and with that, this season tied up lots of loose ends from previous seasons. Epic action, good storytelling, and likeable characters make In Space well worth the watch.

Matrix Reloaded
So we finally hit the movie that definitely divided fans. On one hand, Matrix Reloaded up the ante in giving us the viewers more action scenes on the other hand though the movie gave us a plot that pretty much killed the Matrix lore. Buckle up people, we're in for a bumpy ride.

3BGClassic- The Animatrix
EComing off the heels of The Matrix, The Animatrix was born out of the series starting to expand out into a full fledged franchise. With that came a need to explain the nuances of the world of the Matrix and how everything came to be. The Animatrix succeeds in giving an account of how the machines managed to take over the humans while also giving story accounts of how the Matrix effected other characters. Lots of solid animation from various studios and yet another solid soundtrack, the Animatrix is definitely worth a watch.

The Matrix
Its amazing how much of an impact a movie has on filmmaking. The Matrix was a movie that blew peoples minds at the time because it was doing things that others movie weren't doing at the time with things like bullet time, the anime'esque fighting, and its pretentious philosophical plot that was fine but got convoluted as the series went on. Either which way, this is a movie that looking back on it now is still a fun and good movie to watch.

BAM- Child's Play
Child's Play is DjTsu's favorite slasher film series of all time. Dee doesn't like it...but laughed a few times. In this very special Halloween Special, the BAM boys talk about the murderous doll, voodoo, Jennifer Tilley's cleavage, rulers and GIVE ME THE POWER I BEG OF YOU!!!!!

WrestleCorner - Welcome To Hell!!!
Wherein Hell In A Cell PPV happened to decent results, TNA Bound For Glory happened, and NJPW King of Pro Wrestling tourney. Also random wrestling shenanigans.

High School of the Dead
Most anime that have gratuitous fan service end up not having an engaging story. Hell, its rare to find any sort of show that can balance fan service with a legit plot. In comes High School of the Dead, a show that has fan service in spades but also has a legit plot and some interesting characters. Despite its short length, the show definitely puts a unique spin on the zombie apocalypse.

BAM- Wicked City
EWicked City is truly a story about love. When two people of different species come together as lovers, they find out that they're the key to peace. The Human World and the Demon World can be one. It's a heartwarming tale with vagina monsters, talking vagina's, melting boobs, tentacle s&m and tons of rape. Yes, very graphic but it's animation is fantastic. Not for kids...and Dee and DjTsu saw it at age 10! Wonderful.

BAMPodcast- Cannibal Ferox

CBC - Marvel's Civil War
Civil War is an event that in concept is good. For awhile in the Marvel Universe, heroes were able to do their job without much interference from the gov't. Sure every once in awhile they have a liason to see what the heroes do but for the most part there was no checks and balances. In comes this event which set the tone on whether heroes should be able to do what they do with no regulation.

Last Action Hero
So there was a time where Arnold made a parody movie of sorts but in a different way. Whereas a majority of parody movies are done in an intentional comedic way, Last Action Hero does it in a very tongue in cheek way. This is a movie that nails every action movie trope and even comments on some of them as well. Despite the lukewarm reception, this movie is a very solid, fun flick to watch.

WrestleCorner - It Was Tuesday
Wherein CJ and Dee breakdown the fallout from Night of Champions/Monday Night Raw. Also TNA/GFW and NJPW!!!!! Yay!!!!

BAM - You Suck Sonic!
Sonic the Hedgehog much like Mario is a beloved franchise and icon. Throughout the years the series has had its share of ups and downs. More recently it had its fair share of down moments. Even with that, the franchise is still alive and kicking somehow. Thats the power of Sonic!

Passenger 57
Wesley Snipes is just that damn good of an action star and Passenger 57 is a simple action flick that showcases everything you need to know about Snipes. Add on Bruce Payne who knows how to play a scenery chewing villain and some well done action and you have a fairly entertaining flick.

Set It Off
Its rare to get a movie starring 4 black women who are very strong and capable. Set It Off is a movie thats sort of realistic on the characters in terms of what they go through in life. Its what happens when these characters decide to take life by the balls and jump start it by robbing banks. Pretty good action and a standard plot where you'll see story points coming a mile away.

Morphin Metacast - How to kill a franchise AKA Power Rangers Turbo
Most people left Power Rangers around the first season. Some right around Zeo but Turbo? Yeah Power Rangers Turbo was the season that literally pushed the franchise to the brink of pretty much being dead in the water. A season that tried to take the wackiness of the Carranger sentai and make a serious season out of it and the results was a very hit and miss affair.

3BGClassic- The Five Heartbeats
This is probably one of the better movies about a music group and the crazy part is that its entirely fictional. What makes this movie work is that despite it hitting some tropes that you see in musical documentaries, it nails the characters and their struggles.

The Fast and Furious series
Well this is what you've been waiting for. This is a series of movies that progressively got insane and crazy with the plot and cars. It used to be about the pink slips but then it turned into a full on heist flick. Yet somehow despite all this, we got 7 entertaining movies out the deal.

Artist Alley - Leon Langford
So CJ sits down with Leon Langford who is writer of the Static Shock short, Electrogenesis and also creator of a new book, Street Slam. Definitely a must listen.

Not Another Teen Movie
Parody movies come and go but there used to be a time where parody movies were actually good. Not Another Teen Movie is one of them. Taking all the tropes from teen movies of the 80's and 90's, this flick hits on all the classic stuff but its done in such a way where its legit funny.

WrestleCorner - That's My Purse!!!!
Wherein we go over the NJPW G1 climax tournament, Field of Honor matchups, NXT Brooklyn, TNA shenanigans, and Summerfest...I mean Summerslam!

Spiderman Trilogy
Quite possibly the movie that really emphasized that these comic book movies could work, the Raimi Spiderman trilogy echoed the old school Stan Lee era of Spidey books where its campy and fun in a good and entertaining way. Despite the trilogy sputtering out at the end with Spiderman 3, its still a trilogy thats worth a watch.

CBC- Fantastic Four 2015
So we're on our third attempt on a Fantastic Four movie. Does the flick live up to the hype and controversy? Tune in and find out!

The Crow
Its amazing how the mythology of a movie gets huge when an actor dies and The Crow is no exception. Brandon Lee died during production and it cast a huge hype train on the movies release. This movie definitely lived up the hype. A very basic revenge story that works well across the board from the action to the acting.

BAM- Dee and DjTsu use to Rap Part 1
Much like Black Bible Black this is one of many stories of Dee and DjTsu's wild adventures as...(sigh)...hiphop artist. On this adventure they learn that chucking mixtapes at a HipHop Summit about financial responsibility is ALWAYS worth doing.

Morphin Metacast - Power Rangers Zeo
Quite possibly one of the more popular seasons of Power Rangers, Zeo was an action packed season that progressed the Zordon Era story. Characters experienced lots of growth, stakes were high at times, and we had bad guys who at times managed to put a wrinkle in the rangers plans. Solid season front to back.

The Incredibles
For most people, the Incredibles is a solid superhero flick. A fun, family friendly movie that hits on some serious stuff at times. We're given a range of characters who are going through personal issues that your average person can relate to to an extent. Excellent cast and characters and the animation is solid as well.

The Mask
Jim Carrey has always been a funny comedian. One of the greats even. The Mask is one of those movies that really showed the wackiness of Carrey big time. It took a lot from the Tex Avery cartoons and it has some moments where its laugh out loud funny. Other than that, the movie definitely has padded out lots of the plot for the sake of extending the time.

CBC- AntMan
One of the big things coming out of the MCU movies was when were we gonna see the Antman character. Specifically Hank Pym. He was one of the founding members of the Avengers and there was rumors of the character and Wasp being in the original draft of the Avengers movie. But as with anything we had to wait till the character was announced. Well we got AntMan but its the Scott Lang incarnation. Not necessarily a bad thing cause the character actually has an excellent origin. So come along with us on this journey as we talk about this excellent movie.

Flashpoint Paradox
Based on the comic of the same name, this movie is very Flash focused which is a big change of pace. Normally with DC animated movies it either Batman, Superman, or Justice League focused. At any rate, Flashpoint paradox tells the tale of what happens when you mess with events of the past and how it effects the future. This movie more or less shows the world in a chaotic mess but its so good.

WrestleCorner - Stay F***ing Calm
Wherein the guys talk about the aftermath of the recent Monday Night Raw, random WWE news, Global Force Wrestling, NJPW, TNA, and the NXT ladies putting in work.

White People Problems aka SDCC 2015 review
San Diego Comic Con has came and gone and man was it chock full of good news. So sit back as we break down all the comic book related newsworthy stuff.
