159- Morbius

It's finally time people.... for what seems like two years (or perhaps even more) Jake and Ryan have somewhat dreaded the day that the Morbius movie actually turned out to be a real creation that they would actually have to watch and endure... and damn if it hasn't finally happened. So is this the worst movie they've covered on the podcast? No, it certainly is not. Is it an instant classic that is undeserving of all of the negative reviews that have been floating around about it? Well let's not get carried away here... we do have Matt Smith running around the London Underground in orthopedic sketchers pretending to be a vampire so it does warrant a certain amount of criticism let's be honest. No, Morbius is one of those weird movies where it's not quite bad enough to just hate on it the entire time as being this strange bastardization of the source material, but it also cannot possibly be viewed as a stand alone piece of media to be appreciated either. Morbius straddles that strange middle ground where it's a bad movie that seems as if it's missing a second (potentially better, potentially worse) half, and we may never truly know which way this could've gone. The boys also have a spoiler-free and brief recap of the first two episodes of Marvel's Moon Knight, and Jake had to do a bit of dumpster diving in the name of love this week, so there's also that to keep all of you satiated.... Almost Accurate is a weekly pop culture podcast hosted by Jake and Ryan who review the latest in Movies, TV Shows, Video Games, and more.

158- Turning Red

Almost Accurate is committed to brining you the most up to date information, and as a weekly podcast, we're poised to talk about information the second it happens- oh no! It looks like Will Smith has broken down the doors to our studio and given us both the swiftest of smacks right across the face! Like we said.... the most up to date information that a weekly podcast could possibly give. We're finally talking about Disney's Turning Red, which is a metaphor for growing up and maybe finally getting your mom to chill out about that. We also talk about how Ezra Miller has been going ham in Hawaii and really seems like he hates karaoke (but to be fair... don't most of us?) PlayStation is finally rolling out a GamePass style competitor (well.. kind've, it does have three different, and I must say, confusingly worded and somewhat hard to say tiers) and even more in this week's episode! Almost Accurate is a weekly pop culture podcast hosted by Jake and Ryan who review the latest in Movies, TV Shows, Video Games, and more.

157- The Dropout

We feel like this will be a fantastic step forward for our podcast. We're really feeling the synergy between us this episode, and we think that it'll be an experience that we can nurture and grow together in this business adventure together, that will really help us consolidate our assets, and give you (the listener) the best possible podcast listening experience, all done with just one single drop of blood. Yeah we watched Hulu's The Dropout this week and all jokes about Elizabeth Holmes' voice aside this is a GREAT drama series. There is a real glut of con-artist media floating out there at the moment, but this is a great one to start with. It is so well acted, and covers such an insane story so well, it's a big recommend from your resident podcasting experts down here at Almost Accurate HQ. That's four thumbs up (because you know, two of us on this show) for The Dropout! Almost Accurate is a weekly pop culture podcast hosted by Jake and Ryan who review the latest in Movies, TV Shows, Video Games, and more.

156- Gran Turismo 7, Space Force Season 2

The boys have a TON of news to get through, and they’ve also got a big new (ish) game to talk about, and a perhaps lesser show review to get through.  Jake and Ryan are here to talk you all through the news of the week in the upcoming The Boys season 3 trailer, a sneak peak of Umbrella Academy Season 3, and of course that very impressive looking trailer for Ms. Marvel. Man that was a well put together trailer. Have no idea if the show will be good or not but that was a VERY good looking and well done trailer.  For the main couse, Jake has been playing the classy and complicated Gran Turismo 7, for all it’s technical difficulties and shiny cars (and coffee) is a very fun and enjoyalbe exeprience.  They’ve also been watching the second season of Netflix’s Space Force which…. Well it’s not quite as good as the first season is it? It’s not bad by any means but it does seem to reference some real life budget cuts which unfortuantley seem to make their way into the premise of the actual show. It’s a good watch, but ultimately not the most memorable some would say…. Almost Accurate is a weekly pop culture podcast hosted by Jake and Ryan who review the latest in Movies, TV Shows, Video Games, and more.

155- The Batman

Jake and Ryan took a look at the news they had this week and went "hey, how do we turn this into the second-longest episode we've ever done? That's something that the people want from us isn't it?" Well, even if it isn't, turns out that what the boys have done. Buckle up for an hour and 20 minute breakdown of The Batman (which is pretty good by the way according to Jake and medium from Ryan), plus much, much more news on top of that. You wanted a Ninja Turtles collection? You got it. You wanted all those Warner Brother's movies to be pushed back by several months but maybe one of them actually got moved forward? You got it. You wanted the boys to really, REALLY talk about Batman for a lot longer than they've ever done before? You've got it. This episode really does have it all. Almost Accurate is a weekly pop culture podcast hosted by Jake and Ryan who review the latest in Movies, TV Shows, Video Games, and more. Like the show?

154- Horizon Forbidden West

It's time for the boys to load up and ride back off into the sunset... which we all know from a geographical perspective means that the sun sets in the west.... or even the forbidden west as some might even say. Who among us has even been all the way out there? Might there even be some gigantic robotic monstrosity the likes of which we haven't even seen once we cross over into that threshold? It's impossible to say if you haven't crossed that threshold, but the boys have for you and they're here to go even further in depth into Horizon Forbidden West. Spoiler Alert: This is a great game and it's SO fun to play. That's really all we're going to spoil for you in this more in-depth review than we gave during last week's episode, but it's a true testament to the design, creativity, and just sheer beauty of this game that it warrants a second week and a second visit into it's world. That photo mode too... baller. Is that a dated reference? Is it still cool to refer to stuff as baller? We don't care. We're going to continue to do that, and continue to say that Horizon Forbidden West is a great game and you should check it out! Almost Accurate is a weekly pop culture podcast hosted by Jake and Ryan who review the latest in Movies, TV Shows, Video Games, and more.

153- Uncharted & Horizon Forbidden West

Well well well.... Sony sure had a big day last week didn't they? Not only did they release their major motion picture starting a certain Thomas Holland and a certain Mark(us) Wahlberg, they also put out Horizon Forbidden West, a highly anticipated sequel to an already ambitious open world game from a few years ago. Crazy they did both of these in the same day... I mean what were we supposed to do after all, watch and try and review them both??! Only two absolute lunatics with nothing better to do than create content for a podcast would dare to even attempt something such as this... right? You're in luck because this is Almost Accurate after all and this is..... well its Jake and Ryan after all and this is what they do. Putting their lives (time) on the line (watching and playing content they probably would engage with anyways) all for the sake of this podcast. You're welcome folks. No need to thank us, we did the legwork for you, and we'll let you know if both of these things are worth your time (they are... for the most part... I mean we talk about it in the episode so... just keep listening). Almost Accurate is a weekly pop culture podcast hosted by Jake and Ryan who review the latest in Movies, TV Shows, Video Games, and more.

152- Peacemaker, Cyberpunk 2077 Demo

Jake and Ryan have a TON of news to get through this week folks. Like we haven't had this much news to just blitz through in quite some time so grab a helmet, grab a seatbelt and strap in because there's SO MUCH to cover this week. The Super Bowl was last Sunday (you know, in case you live under a rock... or just in a place outside of the United States where you're not quite sure what the big deal is but you've heard of the Super Bowl before, but you're not quite sure why they use Roman numerals even though the majority of Americans actually have to Google what Super Bowl number it is this year because you know... Roman numerals.. and you know.. Americans). THERE ARE A TON OF TRAILERS TO RECAEP. Moonknight! DC 2022 Recap! Dr. Strange and the Multiverse of Madness! That Jurassic World sequel where they got Laura Dean and Sam Neal back in addition to Chris Pratt who's in literally everything right now! Not to be outdone by things that have been done before but are getting a second (and third probably) chance, Cyberpunk 2077 is back and it's finally running on next-gen consoles! The boys sample the Cyberpunk Demo (the first 5 hours are free right now) and let you all know their thoughts, especially how it compares to the awful and broken mess that CD Projekt Red rolled out in December of 2020. Lastly, (but certainly not least-ly... or Eaglely...) Jake and Ryan have started watching HBO's Peacemaker, and what a show. Really... going into this not having any expectations and being pleasantly surprised by how GOOD it actually is... you can't beat that. You can't even SEE that. Peacemaker (at least the first three episodes) is a big recommend from the boys.

151- Jackass Forever

Jake and Ryan are back for a ball-slapping good time, because Jackass Forever is finally in theaters! Is it a return to form for the classic cast, or is it a reminder that we are all getting older and it's time to leave childish things behind...... anyways, guard your sack fellas. You're never safe, even when you think you are. In others news, Nintendo dropped a fairly decent Direct today, and we're getting (paid) DLC for Mario Kart 8, alongside Switch Sports! Finally time to bowl against your grandma again! Almost Accurate is a weekly pop culture podcast hosted by Jake and Ryan who review the latest in Movies, TV Shows, Video Games, and more.

150- A Wintry Binge

Jake and Ryan enjoy the shortest of respites from the wintry weather that has hammered the luscious North Carolina plains for several weeks and discuss some of the things they have been binge watching while stuck inside and watching it snow (and sleet. this is the South y'all). Turns out, Netflix has had some BANGERS drop in the last few weeks that are worth binging for sure! If you haven't watched Archive 81, you're in for an otherworldly adventure that will have you asking what exactly is happening right up until the very end. Jake watched Amy Adams' Woman in the Window and felt it was a fairly decent watch (if not a bit too long).Then of course we have the longest titled TV show in recent memory, Netflix's The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Woman in the Window (starring Kristen Bel). What a goofy, strange adventure this turned out to be! Yes that one sex scene was pretty long. Yes they did it in every room in the house, y'all just calm down already. Seriously. It's fun, it's goofy, and it's for sure one that is deserving of a winter-time binge. Almost Accurate is a weekly pop culture podcast hosted by Jake and Ryan who review the latest in Movies, TV Shows, Video Games, and more.
