For this episode our hosts conclude the make a wish / dying child episodes, with their review of Attack of the Octobot. This episode was recorded live and can be seen on @robsonink YouTube, if you fancy looking at Alex and Will's ugly mugs. Click here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QW-ZvWpzTII&t=681s During their review, our hosts discuss the blatant stereotyping and dated versions of the Jamaican cab driver, Mousie, along with a few other select stereotypical NYC cab drivers. Alex hates on the episode, whilst Will isn't as harsh, but both of them agree that the team up between Spider-Man and Doc Ock is a good one. They also notice the Aunt Anna sass, the big Kingpin mistake and the not so subtle way of implicating a sick child's imminent death. Our hosts also discuss Zack Snyder's director's cut, Henry Cavill's potential role as Superman in the DCEU going forward, comic book news, and much more! It's another web-slinger of an episode, so sit back and let your spidey senses go crazy.
