On this week’s episode: Phil and Tom discuss the first teaser for the eerily suspenseful It Comes At Night starring Joel Edgerton. And the first trailer for the star-studded Lego Ninjago Movie. The dudes swing into the Batcave with the Dynamic Duo for the hilariously meta LEGO Batman Movie. But not before they join Keanu for his second kill spree, this time in Italy, in John Wick: Chapter 2. Phil decides he should probably see the original John Wick before the sequel for Whoops, Our Bad. And in news, it's an episode of comebacks. Dwayne Johnson is getting back in the wrestling ring! Mike Myers is back in front of the camera! And Kevin Smith is planning for Jay and Silent Bob to Strike Back...again!
