Under the Wheels Reborn Episode 11: Harley Quinn in Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey [And The Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn]

Matt and Gabe discuss the relative merits of Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey - the Fantabulous Emancipation of Harley Quinn (#harleyquinn). In the interim, we wonder why Ewan McGregor is in this movie, what a potentially good Obi Wan movie might look like (spoilers: it's definitely not the one that Disney wants to green light), why they would make Black Canary Black, how to balance tonal issues in a movie, what "mature" fandom content actually means by "mature", the conversation around diversity for diversity sake or if diversity only if it is high-quality or good, the DC Cinematic Euvre, and a special stinger regarding another Aaron Sorkin stage play.

Under the Wheels Reborn Episode 10: Get Owned by Steve Jobs and Aaron Sorkin

Gabe and Matt attempt to talk about Danny Boyle's Aaron Sorkin's Steve Jobs starring Michael Fassbender et al (and not the Ashton Kutcher "Jobs" movie) while also digressing into talk of James Bond and budgets and looking ahead to an uncertain, nostalgia-infused future with a lack of futurists. Discussion also includes talk of the Academy Award and excitement over Alex Garland's new television series.
