It's been a couple weeks, but we are finally back with our Guardians of the Galaxy review. As big fans of the original film we were both very excited to see how this film would close out the trilogy. There is a lot of movie to discuss and we are here to break it all down. We hope you enjoy the podcast.

The Mandalorian ended it's third season with a finale that had a few great moments but also felt unsatisfying and messy. Subplots were rushed through, some story threads were abandoned and ultimately, we land at the question of what was this season all for? In this podcast we recap the finale and talk about where this story is heading.

Lots to talk about in this weeks podcast. We have the very strong Chapter 23 of, "The Mandalorian," as well as a bunch of news from Star Wars Celebration. Three new Star Wars films are coming our way and we cannot wait. We discuss all of that as well as the new Harry Potter series announced for HBO Max, or just Max, or whatever it is going to be called.

The Mandalorian's third season continues to be a mixed bag. Some of it is great and a lot of fun, but some of it also leaves us wanting something more. Chapters 21 and 22 are a great example of this. There is some sci-fi world-building, some interesting storytelling, but also rushed resolutions and story that doesn't scale. In this podcast we recap what we loved and what we didn't about both episode.

This week's episode of, "The Mandalorian," offered a bird attack and a big reveal. While the first few episodes had some ups and downs, this episode really turned out to be a lot of fun, and we could not be happier for the actor who had a wonderful cameo. In this Nerd Flix & Chill podcast, we discuss the episode as well as what we are seeing in the news for Star Wars films that may or may not be coming.

"The Last of Us," season finale was an intense bit of storytelling that really delivered.  "The Mandalorian," has had some ups and downs this season, but the second and third episodes were improvements over the first. In this Nerd Flix & Chill podcast we breakdown the finale of, "The Last of Us," and episodes 2 and 3 of "The Mandalorian."

Lots to talk about in this podcast. We have the return of, "The Mandalorian," which we were not too high on. But, we also have, "The Last of Us," episodes 7 and 8 which we both loved. We hope you enjoy the discussion.

We had some concerns that, "The Last of Us," could be drifting into, "Walking Dead," territory in episode four, by introducing a subplot that we thought could bog down the show. Boy, are we glad to be wrong.  Episode five is stellar. It reveals more about who Joel and Ellie are and the inner conflicts that they both face.  In this Nerd Flix & Chill podcast, we recap the episode.

The fourth episode of "The Last of Us," gave us some much needed development of Joel and Ellie's relationship. While that was a great aspect of this episode, the Kansas City QZ subplot gave us some serious, "Walking Dead," vibes and not in a good way. In this podcast, we share our thoughts on the episode.

The 3rd episode of, "The Last of Us," is an incredible piece of storytelling. It is about 2 people who find a fairytale in a hell-scape. It is deeply moving and very impactful.

"Andor," delivered big in it's first season finale. "Bix Road," was a master class in building tension and paying off moments in the story. There is a lot to discuss in this episode and in this Nerd Flix & Chill podcast, we break down the episode. We discuss the parallels between Maarva and Leia using droids to deliver critical messages of rebellion, and how a show that makes no mention of 'The Force,' or 'Jedi,' can actually enhance the mystique of both. This conversation was a lot of fun and we cannot wait for season 2. Subscribe to our podcast on Apple Podcasts or listen on Stitcher. Follow us on Facebook and Twitter.  

Lots to talk about in this week's Nerd Flix & Chill podcast. We have episodes 10 and 11 of "Andor," which is becoming, with each passing week, the new standard of storytelling in the "Star Wars," universe. We also have our thoughts on "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever," a film that had so much to say about grief and loss, while also having to exist as a superhero film in a large shared universe.

"Andor," is some of the best "Star Wars," storytelling to ever be put out. Not just among the Disney+ shows, but of anything in the entire canon. It makes the Empire more imposing and terrifying. It is a nuanced and thoughtful story that explores oppression, radicalization and rebellion. In this Nerd Flix & Chill podcast, we talk about episodes 7 through 9 of "Andor."

"House of the Dragon," has had a fantastic first season. The narrative has been tight and cohesive, the character development strong.
