The Weekly Stuff Podcast #153 – Comic-Con News Round-up, Ghostbusters, and Star Trek Beyond Review

It’s time for another episode of The Weekly Stuff Podcast with Jonathan Lack & Sean Chapman, a weekly audio show that explores the worlds of film, television, and video games. You can subscribe for free in iTunes by following this link.

In the first of two podcasts this week, we break down a bunch of news out of Comic-Con – including announcements and trailers from Marvel and DC – and Jonathan offers some thoughts on the new Ghostbusters movie (it’s great!) and the new PS4 JRPG, I am Setsuna (it’s also great!). Then, for our main topic, we review this weekend’s major new release, Star Trek Beyond, a strong return to form after the franchise went a little off the rails with Star Trek Into Darkness.

Enjoy, and come back on Wednesday as we prepare for the release of Jason Bourne with a retrospective of the original Bourne trilogy!
