After teaming up annually for the 'Marty&Marty SuperHeroShopTalk' series, @MisterBats #EvilMarty of "The FlyWithBats Podcast" & MartyEdwards #FavoriteMarty of "The Your30 Podcast" with J.Steel #FatGirlNola of "TheMisbelief Radio Show", piggybacking on FWB's 'Review Corner', have teamed up to create "THE REVIEWING DAT SHOW!" a series of TV and Film reviews with a focus on comics, sci fi, hero lore and black cinema mixed in with personal anecdotes, film/tv/comic news and more.
THE DAT!: Dat Bats Audition,#ReviewingDATIGotTheHookup2, The CW's Crisis On Infinite Earths News, #ReviewingDATTitansSeason2Trailer
The Main Event:
"The Boys"
Superheroes are often as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians, and sometimes even as revered as gods. But that's when they're using their powers for good. What happens when the heroes go rogue and start abusing their powers? When it's the powerless against the super powerful, the Boys head out on a heroic quest to expose the truth about the Seven and Vought, the multibillion-dollar conglomerate that manages the superheroes and covers up their dirty secrets.
"Hobbs&Shaw"
Ever since hulking lawman Hobbs (Johnson), a loyal agent of America's Diplomatic Security Service, and lawless outcast Shaw (Statham), a former British military elite operative, first faced off in 2015’s Furious 7, the duo have swapped smack talk and body blows as they’ve tried to take each other down. But when cyber-genetically enhanced anarchist Brixton (Idris Elba) gains control of an insidious bio-threat that could alter humanity forever — and bests a brilliant and fearless rogue MI6 agent (The Crown’s Vanessa Kirby), who just happens to be Shaw’s sister — these two sworn enemies will have to partner up to bring down the only guy who might be badder than themselves.

The Main Event: ReviewingDAT 48Hr Film Project
The 48 Hour Film Project is a wild and sleepless weekend in which you and a team make a movie - write, shoot, and edit - in just 48 hours. On Friday night, teams draw a genre from a hat. They are then given a character, prop and line to include in their films. On Sunday night, in a wild dash to the drop off event, the film is turned in - and teams celebrate. The film is then screened at a local theater in front of an audience of filmmakers, friends and families.
