With the glass ceiling broken, all the oppressed groups shall prosper; especially the most oppressed group of all: Gamers.<\/p>\n

For too long, gamers have been silenced in the movies – well NO MORE. Ry The Movie Guy and KP finally give gamers their chance to rise up this week with a whole episode dedicated to video games.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s right Jawheads – we\u2019re going there as we cover our top 5 video game movies AND review the brand new Mortal Kombat II. Shout out if you\u2019re a gamer. Shout out if you\u2019re a video game movie fan. And giga shout out if you got my meme reference at the top of the show notes.<\/p>\n

While we\u2019re at it, we also have our capsule review of the Chicago Critics Film Fest, some Hollywood news to discuss, and even a retro review of Jeff Daniels and Melanie Griffith\u2019s Something Wild.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is a good one! Lotta fun!<\/p>\n

Love you all,<\/p>\n

-KP<\/p>\n
