(This episode was recorded on May 03, 2025) 

Episode Highlights: DC Delays, Superhero Coins, and Horror Musicals?

Jeff and Ron kick off the episode with breaking news from the DC Universe: the Sergeant Rock movie has officially been put on hold. The hosts unpack what this development could mean for the future of the DCU and dive into possible behind-the-scenes factors contributing to the delay.

From there, they spotlight a surprising announcement from the U.S. Mint — a new line of collectible gold and silver coins featuring legendary DC heroes like Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman. Jeff and Ron share their takes on what this means for fans, collectors, and the growing intersection of pop culture and currency.

Then things take a speculative turn as the duo breaks down a controversial opinion piece suggesting that Doctor Doom has been present in the Marvel Cinematic Universe from the very beginning — and might even be crossing over into the DCU. They dissect the theory and offer their own thoughts on its plausibility.

Shifting back to concrete developments, the hosts discuss the upcoming Clayface horror movie, slated to begin filming in October 2025. They explore why James Gunn might have greenlit this dark, standalone project and what kind of tone and narrative they'd like to see take shape.

Next, Jeff and Ron react to the newly released trailer for Weapons, the mysterious horror film that’s already generating buzz. They share initial impressions and discuss its potential impact on the genre.

The conversation then turns to Shudder’s recent acquisition: Good Boy, a haunted house horror film told from a dog’s perspective. While the concept is undeniably original, the hosts express cautious optimism — and a few concerns — about how well this bold premise will translate to the screen with Shudder producing it.

Ron wraps up the horror segment with a rundown of six free horror games currently online that are reportedly so intense, they’re supposed to give players nightmares. 

Finally, it’s time for the Question of the Week: A movie studio approaches you to turn a genuinely terrifying horror film into a musical — what movie do you choose, and why? The hosts have fun with this offbeat challenge, bringing the episode to a creative and memorable close.
