Fun to hear Matt and Ben catching up.
Opening
Ben appears for the first time in seven months.
Ben forgets to say, "We are back!"
Ben apologizes for The History of Christianity, the worst podcasts in the history of podcasting
.
Ben is now Executive Pastor at Epic Life.
Ben is planning to get another masters degree (ThM) to prepare for a doctoral degree.
Matt now rates The Avengers at 5 stars. Ben rates it 4 stars.
Ben is tired of mediocre superhero movies.
17:25
Ben doesn't like going to theatres.
Like for example, we took our kids to go see Brave earlier this week. $26! Just for the tickets! We could have bought the stupid DVD for that much.
See man? This is why it's way better to be single and childless!
I hear ya.
Because I saw Brave for a mere $5.
Ben is upset about the bare butts in Brave.
Matt suggests leaving The Incredible Hulk as a supporting character in the movies They did
21:52
So Joss Whedon, Cabin in the Woods, you asked me to see it with you, I said 'yes', and then you saw it with somebody else.
No, you said, 'No, cuz I'm worried that I'll be scared and wet myself like a little sissy because of how terrifying it is.'
This is a paraphrase.
A rough paraphrase.
37:35
The hosts discuss Prometheus
As with the former Alien movies, there were some intense, horrific images in this one.
Did you have to shut your eyes?
Yeah. I'm not ashamed to admit that I shut my eyes during things.
I would be a little ashamed to admit it.
41:10
This is right up your alley with 'Jesus is a zombie': Jesus is an alien, according to the Prometheus franchise.
Everyone is now doing short TV seasons, like Ben suggested.
