Lyles Movie Files

We're in a Spiderverse state of mind discussing the possibilities of Morbius being set in another Spider-Man world instead of the MCU version. Also, we come up with our choices to play Spider-Woman in a live action movie. Plus, Patty Jenkins has some ideas about a third potential Wonder Woman film and its setting. We consider what makes the most sense for this third adventure. Disney+ might be considering spinning off Solo with a Lando show, but will that prove too risky after the disappointment with the Sequel Trilogy? Check out all this and more as well as the Dummy of the Week.

With Birds of Prey opening this weekend, we break down our level of interest in the latest DC film from Warner Bros. Chief gets frustrated with the news of Sam Raimi possibly replacing Scott Derrickson in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness Chris Rock is heading up the continuation of the SAW saga with Spiral, but what do the fellas think about this upcoming horror film. Sonic the Hedgehog is coming soon, but has the upgrades gotten us more interested in checking it out leading to a discussion on the failure of video game films in general. How insane was that F9 trailer? We talk about our excitement for the upcoming blockbuster and our complete and total lack of interest for watching this year's Oscars.

We held back on this episode as we wanted to get our reaction in on the Kobe Bryant tragedy. Now we're finally delivering on our review of Tyler Perry's latest crime against cinema -- A Fall from Grace. From bad wigs, terrible lightning and a nonsensical plot, we break down all the ways he got this one wrong. Maybe it's time to expand the writing staff? Additionally, we're proposing the worst possible directors to remake some classic films. We've got some wild ones you will be thrilled Hollywood hasn't decide to run with for their next round of remakes.

It didn't make sense to try and condense the entire Kobe Bryant tragedy into one episode and I'm back with the guys to discuss his impact and their thoughts on his death. From there we also break down the ridiculous media coverage and those would-be social shamers intent on making the deaths about themselves. That's not all this episode as we discuss the social media explosion after David Schwimmer suggested Friends could be remade with an all-black or all-Asian cast, which did not sit well on Black Twitter.

It's Super Bowl week. My Niners are in the big game, but today is a rough day as I try to reflect on my favorite Lakers player, Kobe Bryant, the day after his tragic death. This was a rough one for me as I couldn't quite figure out how to write about this crazy tragedy so I figured I'd try talking about it for a podcast. I break down my fun ride as a Niners and Lakers fan and the journey following two of the most iconic sports franchises of all-time.

The Oscar nominations have been revealed and we're channeling our inner Issa Rae with these nominees. We consider some of the more controversial categories and come up with our own choices of who should have been swapped out instead of more of the comfortable, familiar old guard. That's not all though as we break down some of our choices for our custom awards filled with some surprises and original categories. Thanks for tuning in and don't forget to like, comment and subscribe to the show.

For our first episode of 2020, we break down the Golden Globes and the over/under on how many nominated films the guys actually saw during award season. With so few nominated, we try to figure out what's wrong with network TV and why so few shows get acclaimed. From there we try and cover some of the first quarter films of 2020 and determine if anything catches our interest. Finally we wind things down with our first Dummies of the Week. Who makes the cut?

Happy New Year's Eve! For our final show of 2019 we're breaking down our final thoughts on Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. We break down some of our major issues with the final installment of the Sequel Trilogy from the return of The Emperor to Rey's wacky Force Powers. Additionally, we're talking about The Mandalorian and why it proved to be a better version of Star Wars than the Sequel Trilogy. Finally, we wrap up with some 2020 Resolutions we'd like to suggest for a few groups and people. Hope you enjoy and as always please subscribe, comment and share and most importantly have an epic 2020.

The rest of the guys haven't seen Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker yet so we did another Q&A where they ask questions and I respond in spoiler-free fashion. I also share some spoiler-free thoughts in general about the film. We also break down the controversy with the portrayal of women in action movies. The guys also share their Top 10 Films of 2019 and we've got some real winners for our Dummies of the Week as we wind down 2019.

With Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker coming out this week, we share our final thoughts before we start seeing it including more feedback from The Last Jedi stars on their take on the film. And with Director J.J. Abrams also calling into question some Last Jedi decisions what do we think of how this trilogy can possibly wrap up. What do we want to see in this "conclusion" of the saga Daisy Ridley had to deal with some Internet rage over deflecting on her privilege this week and the boys aren't happy about it either. The new Wonder Woman 1984 and Ghostbusters: Afterlife trailers dropped. Did either of them have us excited as we head to two big films for 2020?

The first part of Crisis on Infinite Earths is in the books and we're breaking down our thoughts and reactions. Do we think the TV version has done a good enough job capturing the flavor of the comic series? It was Reign of the Supermen with three past and present Men of Steel showing up. And what is Lex Luthor really doing with that cheat code? Should Supergirl and Batwoman be a regular thing and why do we feel their interaction hasn't been as strong as one scene between The Flash and Black Lightning. A few major characters sacrificed themselves including that shocker in Part 1. Here's our take on how that will play out going forward in Crisis and possibly beyond. Tune in for a Crisis-filled show and hear our predictions for what's coming next and what we want to see in the final two installments.

With Crisis on Infinite Earths just days away from kicking off on The CW, we break down how the Arrowverse has been leading up to the big event. Jayce and I break down what's happened so far on Arrow, The Flash and Supergirl. Our Crisis comic book recap continues as Jovon wonders why they can't make comics like this anymore. We also break down our thoughts on the new Black Widow and James Bond trailers.

We all happily signed up for Disney+ and talk about our thoughts on the initial launch day from The Simpsons and our take on the new original Star Wars series The Mandalorian. Chief can't handle waiting week to week for new episodes and we debate if that non-binge format will work for paid streaming services. What's the deal with this year's Oscar films and the same old movies coming for another award season. Negan has joined up with The Whisperers in The Walking Dead and we're still hyped about where this season is heading.

The Flash and Arrow have been killing it this season so we talked abut how big an improvement Flash has seen with a new showrunner. Arrow is winding down, but is some of the luster starting to wear off? Jayce and I start breaking down the Crisis on Infinite Earths comic event and discuss why this was such a landmark comic event as we review issues 1 and 2.

In the second half of our big episode, we tackle some very controversial topics including Francis Ford Coppola and Martin Scorsese doubling down on their complaints on Marvel films and the worst rappers of all time list. The old school directors aren't too happy with Marvel raking in all the box office dough and we debate if they are just jealous of the Marvel juggernaut or if they have a legit point. We have some major disagreements on the worst rappers of all time list as Jayce tries to defend one very unpopular choice and we consider some surprising omissions and inclusions. How could Ludacris find his way on this list and does Shaq really deserve a spot?

We had too much to discuss to put it in just one so I split it in two. For this one we're breaking down the final Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker trailer. It was good enough to get one of us excited for it. The rest of us? Not so much. We're three episodes in to Batwoman: what's our verdict on it so far? Supergirl is dragging in the ratings but do the guys think it's getting a bad rap or is just killing time until Crisis on Infinite Earths? On the amazing side of the Arrowverse, The Flash and Arrow have been amazing. What do we think of the work of new showrunner Eric Wallace on The Flash and why has Arrow been so much stronger so far this year? And yeah, we're still loving The Walking Dead so far as we break that down as well.

The Arrowverse got good again? We're actually hyped talking about the build-up to Crisis on Infinite Earths with The Flash and Arrow's latest episodes. We're all still feeling The Walking Dead's new season. Are we excited about Matrix 4 in light of the new cast reveals and the possible return of Jada Pinkett Smith? Jovon, Jayce and I discuss the AEW: Dynamite vs. NXT war and how Wednesday is really the only must-see night for wrestling. Finally, we wind things down this week by breaking down Jennifer Aniston's Best and Worst films.

We're doing a double dose of podcasts this week. For Ep. 106, we break down Batwoman's series premiere and decide if it's worth sticking around to see how it plays out. Duane is back to talk about his take on Joker. What's a hardcore Batman fan think about Joaquin Phoenix's take on The Dark Knight's main adversary? The Walking Dead returns for its 10th season. How'd we think this season got going even with the inevitable departure of Michonne?

AEW: Dynamite vs. NXT! The new Wednesday Night Wars are here. Jayce, Jovon and I talk about what it's needed maybe more than in any time this decade. Batwoman kicked off on The CW this week. Jayce, Gunner and I weigh in on our excitement level for the newest CW series as well as the rest of the Arrowverse shows and the latest hype with Crisis on Infinite Earths. Plus, we talk about the DC Universe app shows from the amazing second season (so far) of Titans and the weird, but wonderful Doom Patrol. We've got some great nominees for Dummy of the Week as well. Tune in and let us know what you think of the show at lylesmoviefiles@gmail.com.

From the Regulators to Cash Money Brothers, we talk about some of our favorite movie crews. Let's see if one of your crew makes the cut. Bog Iger has released a new book about his time period as Disney acquired Star Wars, Marvel and more. In the book is some interesting comments about George Lucas' thoughts on Disney's Star Wars first film The Force Awakens. We also talk about Jonah Hill aiming for $10 million to play either The Riddler or Penguin in Matt Reeves' upcoming Batman film. It's another fun episode from the Lyles Movie Files crew. Hope you enjoy.
