Exploring Movie Buzz, Surprising Discoveries, and Creative Tips

On this episode, MinnMax's Ben Hanson, Jacob Geller, Leo Vader, and Kyle Hilliard are joined by Kate Sánchez from ButWhyTho to unpack the biggest headlines and reveals from Geoff Keighley's Gamescom Opening Night Live. They talk about the new Amazon animated show featuring Mega Man and Kratos, Gearbox's bold trailer for Borderlands 4, and more before diving into an extended, behind-closed-doors preview of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. Jacob also talks about his obsession with Earth Defense Force 6 and the first hours in the breakout hit Black Myth: Wukong.
